This.
Also cupcakes.

Unvote:myself

Edit: basically i've given up on town being able to win, but i'm not going to actively sabotage it by making it easier for them to kill me at this point.

Most likely candidate in my mind is RPG at this point. He's either a mafioso or a very vindicative townie.

Defeatism aside, as that isn't helpful at all, is not lynching Nikose and leaving him to a vig kill really a thing we're doing? I have doubts as to the wisom of that, but if it's the general consensus, I'm ok with it personally, as it means I don't have to make up my mind whether to believe his role claim and I can go ahead and

Vote: rpgdemon

for over pushing a Sifright lynch, and acting generally scummy. The thing is, I can't see Sifright and Karesh being scum. The logic of it doesn't work out for me.

I don't think Fluttershy is scum. It wouldn't fit at all. So if Karesh is scum, he can't be Fluttershy. And if he's not Fluttershy, then roleclaiming such on the first day was a ridiculous gamble on his and Sifright's parts, as it would have given the real Fluttershy a great incentive to counterclaim, even if it meant sacrificing his life, to get two confirmed scum. I'm not sure I can think of a role that wouldn't be worth sacrificing to confirm two scum on day 1. Though I could be wrong on that. I just can't see scum pulling that maneuver, day 1 especially.

So given the highly unlikely nature of Sifright and Karesh being scum, rpgdemon's insistance on such strikes me as very very suspicious.

I'm waiting for a further response from him before voting, but something else I want to point out: Now that we've started coming around to RPG suspicion all of a sudden he's gone quiet.

Could be he's away from the game for the time being, but the timing is incredibly suspicious.

Start reading the thread from here. He has this plan, that'll keep him alive. But it's ambiguous in the outcome. But okay.

Ah, then that helps! If he dies, then we'll have a confirmation, one way or the other!

Basically you are misrepresenting all my ideas to try show them as if they would be a terrible thing for town to do despite the fact that if i'm town it's at the very least a safe way to operate and if i was scum it would be a stupid thing to do because it would get me killed the very next day. do bare mind a guard roll could keep the investigator dude alive the night he 'reveals' me to be mafia if i was actually mafia.

Then he refuses to budge from a plan that keeps him alive the longest, and he's tying himself to the Investigator's life. In the same day, like ten posts down. Either he's bad at logic, since his plan had many holes pointed out in it, or he's trying to keep himself alive by any mean necessary. The defense:

"I know I'm town, so it makes sense that I do the plan that gives ambiguous results to the people who need proof, because it means that I stay alive. If I'm lying, well, sorry, you need to kill your PO to find out."

It was explained why his plan wouldn't give any conclusions, and how it would ONLY help scum, because it meant that scum could hide as a townie if anything went wrong. He still refuses to budge, says his plan's the best and keeps trying to stay alive and ambiguous as long as he can.

It's not just me, Snake pointed out many of the same flaws with his plan.

The 'investigator' could be lynched D1.
The 'doctor' or 'protective' role could die N1.
The 'investigator' could die N1.
The 'doctor' or protective' role could be lynched D2.
Mafia could simply target Sifright to be killed N1, effectively guaranteeing that Town wastes an investigation, all the while encouraging us to investigate Sifright, knowing that Sifright would be killed.
Mafia could have a 'watcher' role (they do exist), either one-time or permanently. Mafia 'watches' Sifright and can view anyone who visits him. Presto! The Mafia knows who the Investigator is.
Either the Doctor or the Investigator could be kidnapped or killed in a manner that leaves no trace (Mafia has this role sometimes, too! They did in my game!) Then Scum can claim the Investigator (if he's kidnapped.) Or Scum can pretend the Doctor's still out there, knowing that he isn't and can't save anyone.
Sifright could be a 'Godfather,' in which case as Scum he'd scan innocent even if he is not innocent. Every 'investigator' has limits to his power(s). Actually, it'd be to Sifright's advantage as scum Godfather to make the investigator waste a scan 'confirming' him.
Sifright could be SK or Cult; in some games, SKs or Cult members scan innocent by Cops.

...Really there are so many ways this could backfire.
General Rule: As investigator you NEVER LET YOURSELF BE TOLD WHO TO INVESTIGATE. You trust no one, do your own research, and don't reveal your role and your findings until you have to.

HOS: IHMN for being stupid.

He now, for the first time, outright says that he thinks it's a bad idea for him to die, for the town to get some really solid proof that would be helpful.

This is the first point of flipflopping. He said he was expendable before, and that his death would be proof. Now when push comes to shove, he's backing away from that option, despite a town win counting as a win when you're dead, if you were town. He seems to have said it back when it would deflect suspicion that you could kill him, but now that it's actually considered, "No it's a terrible idea! It's scummy to suggest killing me to verify Karesh!"

So, then there's distraction in the form of an IHMN killing train, then he's all, "I can only post in gifs!", then we're all, "Oh, I guess then you can stay." Then Bookworm looks at PMs, and gets killed.

So, the next day, before anyone votes yet, and people are just discussing and throwing out ideas:

My feverent request is that after i'm shown to be town you guys lynch the fuck out of Nikose, who wants to kill me just because

That's a good way to ensure that no one votes against you, since, "Anyone who votes me is voting to help scum, and is scum!"

Unvote: nikose

Vote: Sifright

Suiciding all up in this mother.

Then he goes, "NO, I'LL SUICIDE! LOOK, SEE, I'M VOTING MYSELF, IT MEANS I'M TOWN. CALL MY BLUFF GUYS, DO IT! IT'LL PROVE I'M TOWN!", and because of that, people didn't vote for him. They all went, "Look, don't do that! We're not voting you, that's just dumb! You're a townie!"

Then I call him out on very sketchy behavior recently, outright lying about things that I said with intent to mislead. The post he quoted to say, "Look at how RPG wanted to kill inactives!" was actually me directly responding saying that we shouldn't kill inactives unless we had no better plan, sandwiched between two people who wanted to kill inactives who were arguing against me.

Then he goes, "FINE I HATE YOU, SUICIDING AGAIN, I GIVE UP! AND THE TOWN IS GOING DOWN NOW. BECAUSE I'M TOWN."

Then he goes, "But wait, jk. I'm totally town and gonna help town by not suiciding. Since I'm town!"



As I'm reading through the thread, Sifright goes back and forth between being "I am super knowledge base I know all!", and, "I have no idea, I never read the rules or anything, and I'm confused!", multiple times. It all adds up to being really suspicious in my book.

Could be he's away from the game for the time being, but the timing is incredibly suspicious.

I've always gone quiet in waves, and I literally posted like a page ago, so don't start the, "NOW THEY'VE RESPONDED, PROVING THEIR GUILT." thing. I was spending my time looking for citations on every statement I made in the above post.
