That was my first guess, but then when you said you knew who I targeted and what result I got, that confused me and I thought maybe you had a tracker role instead. Did you eventually end up with two roles/abilities, CC? How did you know who I targeted and what result I got?
You didn't exactly try to hide it, Glork.

This is of course the first relevant post. Personally, I think the letter's answers already remove Goofy from the list of possible investigations, since I reckon she'd be a lot sillier in them. Also, I wouldn't have expected you to investigate Goofy. Maybe I'm just saying it because I would've done it, but I think you'd have gone for Theo at that point anyway.
Glork wrote:Have you anything else to say, Theo?
This is the first (large) hint that you investigated Theo. I got the idea you were trying to milk your investigation here. Of course, due to the whole letter thing, Theo knew he was screwed from the start.

Pantsman: Same -- I got another guilty last night, but I'm not going to announce who it was on until everyone has weighed in.
This only solidified my ideas.
I by no means
knew
your target and result. I simply figured it out on my own. The fact that, if investigated, I expected Theo to come up scum did help.
Glork wrote:I don't really know yet. I know nothing about the nature of DGB's granted abilities, so I don't even know how that's possible. However, CC asked Theo why he lied about being a Vig before I even *hinted* at who my result was on, so I can tell that he knew who I tracked and what result I got. The reason I'm asking CC what's up is precisely
because
I don't know what's going on.
What, you actually think my Theoscum thoughts are in retrospect now that you've claimed scum on him?

I think you're totally missing the joke. Also, I'm not saying I played awesomely before I went away. I announced I would be away and rereading the thread. I did so. You think I'm quivering with rage or something? Because I'm not. I'm somewhat disappointed that I'm not going to get a whole lot of credit for this game, especially seeing how I'm disappointed with my play up to this point, but that's it. (I did, by the way, say something before Glork's investigation)
Yes, he's unconfirmable. But a person who targets another person doesn't make him scum. It could mean that he's townie that has been targetting someone he's thought is scum.
I'm not saying it makes him scum. There's more to this than just his claim. But the fact that his claim works to validate Theo's claim of Vig does not reflect well upon him.
What about DGB? She is so absurdly out there I'm amazed she's still alive.
Yes, DGB. On DGB, my gut reigns supreme, but, to be honest, I really can't see her playing so awfully as scum (I would say she's been playing worse at this point if she's scum than if she's town). I can't really see her tie herself to Pookscum in such a clear, obvious way.
Yes, I could be wrong about her. Very easily, in fact. But I think she's town.
This is an all around crappy way to prove that someone is scum, and shouldn't be considered at all.
So actual scummy posts are a bad way of proving someone is scum?
Well, I'm sure you have a lot of fun relying purely on Cop claims, then.
I love how you completely ignore half the game. Y'know, my actual play, how I've been vehemetly against Pooky and DGB (one of which is confirmed scum), etc. You've been out of the game pretty much the entire game. Your voice, at least to me, is not worth much.
The fact that it would further unbalance the game is the easiest and quickest (and most definitely the most objective) reason to drop you from the list. If you want a friggin' serenade on how awesome you've played, you can go look somewhere else.
Scumtells and towntells are WIFOM, period. And gut feelings are subjective evidence, not objective, and should be discounted.
Yes, we should catch scum using claims and throwing dice! That's great! That's awesome! Let's do it!
Also, saying tells are WIFOM is hilariously wrong. I'm absolutely astounded at the fact that just a paragraph or two ago, you were whining about how you played so awesomely and went against Pooky and Theo so much, and here you're saying it's all WIFOM.
I don't give a rat's ass about my gut being subjective. My gut feelings are based on actual tells. My gut feelings also have a fairly high success rate. If it works, it works.
I love comments like this. Purely egotistical. It's a statement of "I got a role that can do this. But since I got a role that can, there's no way you could possibly have a role that could do a similar action. You know, like a doc and a roleblocker, perhaps?
No, you see, Nai, Skruffs has been trying to claim responsibility. Responsibility for something he did not cause. It's what, y'know, scum likes to do. They try to claim the responsibility for something they weren't responsible for so they look good.
He DIDN'T. This entire time THEO said he blocked him. The ENTIRE TIME Skruffs was saying he could NOT have done so.

And I think you're an extremely misguided townie who has no idea how to help the town, and has a very bad scumdar.
This is probably the most insulting thing that has ever been said to me in a Mafia game. It is probably also the most baseless crap that has ever been said to me, so I guess that evens it out a little.
I jumped in today with Theoscum (before Glork had even posted). I correctly predicted Glork's target and result before he even hinted at it, to use his own words. Yes, I am obviously extremely misguided, have no idea what I'm doing, and all-around suck at this game.
Post 160,
Post 240 and
Post 268 are also clear evidence that my scumdar sucks.
