Oh and I got blocked again, even though I hadn't sent in an action. Jokes on them.
Skoffin I'd greatly appreciate hearing your other results. Even if all you have is names of dead people.
What day one move? And welcome back

If he was scum I don't know why he'd have stepped up to defend me the way he did. If he was scum he brilliantly set up a ranger #2 claim atm. But setting something like that up that far in advance is super risky. Not to mention I was basically going to get lynched eventually if he didn't say anything.

I assume you're talking about Skoffin, dunno why you keep switching between he and she.
Anyway I suspect you might well be mafia along with Iliad and Skoffin so it's not much of a defense.

I was talking from my point of view not yours.
I switch between he and she because I use he as a default but if I remember that I'm talking about a girl I'll use she, so sometimes I don't actively remember that she's a she.

It's not much. A mafia ploy would probably have been more obvious - this one almost went unnoticed. And she didn't save your life - a few people had already unvoted by then.

accusing everyone else and putting pressure on everyoen else is the oldest trick in the book of mafia my friend.

Not everyone else. You and Skoffin and/or ET who I suspect are the mafia.

That's great. Except you have no evidence AT ALL and we need to be very careful right now since we can easily bring the endgame around if we play stupidly.
I really don't like how you have NO evidence whatsoever, any evidence you had I shredded to parts and you didn't even try to refute it.
So go on dagger try me

Considering that post came after I mistakenly posted in the wrong thread, I thought it might be better to go find the other post(It was posted in the mass effect mafia game on page 10 if you wish to see for yourself):
" We seem to be approaching deadline so we'd best look at the main candidates now and put up some points for or against them, otherwise we risk missing it entirely. I however suggest not going after ET though, as I have reason to believe him. "
My 'reason for believing him' was from my role PM which strongly suggested to me he would be telling the truth, I have not investigated him however.
I believe the order of investigations were lovo, Iliad and Phil. I got town on all, but I suppose I can't rule out a godfather.
All though it would be brilliant if Iliad, ET and myself were all scum, you guys having three scum all at once to choose from? Personally as all three of us are experienced players I don't think any of us would be dumb enough to get an entire mafia team worked into such a tangled web

Actually I did. When I said I would be back well before the deadline I *did* come back well before the deadline, however cena had not claimed by then. I even posted to say cena should hurry the hell up already, but eventually I had to leave and that's when he finally got around to it. I fully expected Cena to have claimed by the time I got back, it's not my fault that he didn't.

Actualy I've posted it lots of times, you seem to ignore it except the bits you like:
You were on all 3 bandwagons on town
You didn't vote Cena
You and Skoffin have been aligning yourselves very closely together
You seem convinced Skoffin's cop when you have no more evidence she is than anyone else
If you and Skoffin aren't mafia then who?
Also Skoffin why didn't you investigate william last night if you're cop? You were accusing him all of yesterday. Personally I think this is a bullshit claim,
but I agree with what yorkie said a couple of pages back. We're better off lynching Iliad, as he will be the same alignment as Skoffin. If he's scum we lynch Skoffin tomorrow. If not we know Skoffin's really cop
unvote vote iliad

Good point! Skoffin why haven't you investigated William who has looked awfully scummy.
For me that is the final proof. I am almost certain skoffin and iliad are scum but I'll vote iliad first 'just in case'
vote iliad

As cop investigating people you feel to be scum is squandering your resources, its much better to investigate those you have no read on. In that light all 3 of his investigation targets make a lot of sense.
Iliads alignment and skoffins are not necessarily the same.
1 skoffins only gotten town results, he could be naive
2 Iliad could be a godfather
3 Skoffin could be scum bsing the claim and Iliad could still be town
Vote IceDagger cause I feel like it.

I'm not entirely convinced with skoffin, but I'm getting there. In any case, I don't think we're getting any more information from her right now.
I'm fairly sure Ice is town. If he's not, there certainly aren't four scum. Hammering cena would be risky with three, but with four the game was won had he not. And by previous speculation, three scum would also mean no cop. (Speaking of which, that's another reason I'm not convinced about skoffin. As far as I can tell, there are only three cannibals in the movie.) The same applies to a lesser extent to Yorkie and myself. And Yorkie's claim is probably the weakest so far, which is another point in favour of "if not skoffin and iliad, who?"
Iliad, claim?

Not really, someone can be acting scummy and easily be town. Better to investigate who you suspect, as everyone does.
Iliad could be Godfather- So lynching him would be a massive mistake then wouldn't it
Iliad pretty much confirmed they were the same alignment when he asked us to lynch him instead of Skoffin.. and I don't know why you'd say that if you're town. How can you be that sure someone's cop?
And that vote just made you look even more scummy.. cause you feel like it? Nice reasoning there. If Iliad and Skoffin both turn out to be scum and the game doesn't finish you're definitly number 3 on my list.

What you said was-
"And you would not have missed the deadline, as you seem to have left out the part where I had said that I would be back well before the deadline. "
This isn't true, as we
would have missed the deadline.

She got a dead persons role, we already know. And possibly her scum buddy. She obviously picked cop so that if anyone counter claimed then she would have a prime target. Still not convinced Skoffin.
Unvote just incase though.

@bold prove thats how everyone investigates.
@people who act scummy... The point is to maximize the information you have. By investigating lurkers and others who you cant get a read on you maximize what you know, if you investigate only people you have suspicion on then are limiting the info the town gains, as if they are active further posting by them will likely convince you one way or the other eventually.
If Iliad were godfather lynching him wouldn't be bad I was just pointing out there are many ways in which they are not necessarily the same alignment.
Iliad only knows them to be the same alignment if hes scum, so nice try.
Where in that post do I say I'm sure? One of the listed possibilities is that skoffin is scum and lying about being a cop.
Of course "cause I feel like it" isn't a reason or explanation, I just never gave one. I have reasons for feeling like it, but I really don't feel like explaining myself, hence the cop out.

Well admittedly I'm not that experienced at mafia.. but in the 4 or 5 games I've played thats always how cops have acted, and how I'd act as a cop. As I thought was pretty clear from the context, I was referring to Iliad when I said "how can you be that sure someone's cop"- i.e say lynch me instead of Skoffin, unless you're in fact scum buddies.
