1249 makes sense to me. I am no longer sure of a scumread on that slot. Bah.
I think Anxiety is scum.
After that, my next highest read is Junpei.
After that, PoE says one of Luxury/Snake.-

sounds like a lot of fencesitting from you to me.
You say you're fine with an investigation BUT WATCH OUT TOWN.
I'm not gonna castigate you too much though because if I was investigated once as town, I'd think it was stupid to investigate me again as well. However, speaking objectively, it does make more sense to investigate someone for a second time today because of the nature of the role. It doesn't return perfect information, therefore a second investigation (be it on you or Anxiety) will return a much more likely clear or not clear on that player. I don't think a third investigation is necessary. It's a numbers game really.Currently a VP Baltar/Juls Hydra-

How will a second investigation prove anything?
Only a third proves something.
I'm saying I'm fine with an investigation since I have nothing to hide; HOWEVER, I can see this being a potential sword of Damocles and I will not be villanized for wasting resources. If town wants to do this, then that's fine, but they absolutely should consider all angles. Considering the pros and cons of an action is not fencesitting.-

Don't leave quite yet. You'll note I'm not voting for you. I have yet another bizarre theory, which may not be so bizarre, and I'm leaning on you being town from it (and from other things). I just need to do some ISOs tomorrow before I present it.
Or if you do want to leave, then ask for a replacement. Don't lynch yourself if you're town and potentially lose the game for us."SAULRES you are THE man! Fav mod eva, no contest!" - Bert; "Saulres is a fantastic mod, if he is running a game everyone needs to join it." - FuDuzn

I actually think it's makes sense to cop a claimed VT and probably one who hasn't been investigated by either myself or formerly Locke, which I think leaves us Luxury and Crab Canon? I will do one of the others if people really want me to. Although I think getting some information on an unknown rather than getting possibly the same info back on someone already investigated. Although I suppose that would potentially confirm them as telling the truth? Im starting to get a hurting head over all of this.Showhttp://www.screen-one.net - For all your Movie needs.

Snake, in your role PM, does your Amazing ability come before or after your Voter one?
I'm wondering if the results come in downward order, in which case that would clear 4nxi3ty and possibly Amrun, and would be extremely useful on Luxury or CC."SAULRES you are THE man!

That's actually an excellent, excellent idea, saulres.
I'll tell what order my Amazing is but I know my own alignment and I'd like to hear Snake's answer first (and also he has another ability and I don't, so who knows).-

It was my impression that his investigation returns a random role ability. Why do you think it's in order?
In terms of Anxiety's suggestion I'm trying to dodge investigation, well that's just stupid. I'm saying Snake should investigate a VT and it should ultimately be his choice, even if that's me. I have nothing to hide and I can guarantee an investigation of me will return a voter ability. That being said, I do think --and I've explained logically why-- confirming a previous investigation is a more efficient use of the ability. Regardless, Snake just needs to pick and make it happen so we can move forward with the game.Currently a VP Baltar/Juls Hydra-

I don't think it is (that's why I asked). I hope it is. Giving a random result puts a little too much dice into the ability for my liking, making it almost useless; everyone has a chance of returning (V) Voter and the role could spend all game getting nothing at all useful (especially if the random result is generated every time, meaning you could spend all game getting the same result from the same person).
I'm sure if Vi were still alive she could link me to examples of games where rolecops get only one role at a time (the wiki doesn't say anything about characters with multiple roles). I haven't had any luck looking for examples on my own."SAULRES you are THE man!

It's not a role I've ever heard of, but it certainly wouldn't surprise me to be random from DDD.
DDD is a mafia hunting purist that doesn't believe in putting too much faith in PRs to win the game for town. He doesn't like setup speculation without facts and he doesn't care for roles that are going to break the game for either alignment. If he created a rolecop role, I don't see why he wouldn't hamstring it in some way, shape or form. I see no reason to believe it's in sequential order when snake said he just investigates and receives and ability. My inclination was to immediately think random.Currently a VP Baltar/Juls Hydra-

Hm that may be why you thought it was random. I find Snake's posts hard to read and it's not the first time I've missed (or misunderstood) something from him.

Not sure what you mean by "without facts". I find it impossible to look at the lack of kills on nights 1 and 2 without speculating about the setup."SAULRES you are THE man! Fav mod eva, no contest!" - Bert; "Saulres is a fantastic mod, if he is running a game everyone needs to join it." - FuDuzn

Facts would be something you can reasonably assume based upon various pieces of corroborating evidence. ie, things we don't have here.
How sure are you that Junpei is town? I really feel like you're town because your descriptions of everything are super detailed. Junpei I don't get the same vibe from.Currently a VP Baltar/Juls Hydra-

I'm not sure Junpei is town. I'm sure that he's Roy, because his description of his ability is too similar to mine and I didn't feed that info when I described it, so I don't think he's faking it. The only reason I lean town on him at the moment is because I'm having more trouble figuring out how the tiger works if he's scum than I am if he's town.
Spoiler: Insane theory showing how my mind works
In any case I agree, Snake should pick someone and get a result on the sooner side. He's not one of the more active posters and we'll have to wait for him to post whatever response he gets from DDD, so the less waiting at this point, the better."SAULRES you are THE man!

Right I have sent Triple D the investigation. I'll let you know who when it comes back just in case there is some kind of day blocker type thing. Just to be safe. My abilities go in the order of the copping, being amazing and then my vote. I can only assume everyone has the vote last in their PM?Showhttp://www.screen-one.net - For all your Movie needs.

Oh and just for the record. Im not the most active poster, due to being in the UK and therfore being on different time scales to most of you, I have abusy day job and 3 kids who when I get home I have to get feed and get to bed etc. before I get any real time to myself, plus I run my movie website which also takes a fair amount of my other time too.Showhttp://www.screen-one.net - For all your Movie needs.

Oh no none taken, I just wanted to point it out, just so people don't think Im deliberately lurking or something. Sometimes I literally get on here for 5 minutes in and out, which is why I tend not to replace in as I don't always get time to read back or indeed the current posts properly all the time. Which is why once I've got my Mod stripes proper I'll probably only play very sparringly.Showhttp://www.screen-one.net - For all your Movie needs.

Well, that's either very helpful or completely random and unhelpful. No way to know I think.

Snake, what's the flavor of your cop ability?
Meanwhile, while looking at the VCA I got distracted. I'm going to try something.
4nxi3ty says he walked away from this game but didn't request replacement. He's been actively posting in other games but it seems he's given up on this one and asked us to lynch him. If that's his town play then I think that's sufficient grounds for sanctions against him for not playing to his win condition. I think the threat of sanctions is generally a strong enough incentive for town to request replacement rather than shit on the game, so I have to assume his play is a scum AtE.
