Flying politicians

Is there anything you need us to do to help your decision?

Politick

In all fairness to...

There has never been a Marxist state.

It has always been a corrupted version of it.

You could say that about every political theory ever though.

You're just parroting the information that's already in the game.

And you potentially keep spoiling opportunities to trip up the real scum.  Or are it yourself, but side-stepping my logical tripwires by some combination of good luck or good judgement.  (Complaining that I'm not telling you anything, then refusing to tell anything yourself..?  Saying that asking for information that's not even helpful to the scum is scummy..?)

Never mind, that was hardly anything like the "just one more thing, sir" of the professional Columbo, it was just an attempt to get us (as Fallacy also pointed out was necessary) moved on from this current quagmire.  Maybe it failed, maybe it didn't!

Oh? Do explain how I'm holding back the town.

Also, the information you asked for (and provided!) is readily available in the thread from this round, and it's not particularly helpful to the town either.

I did provide information, just not information that's going to be useful to you. Since you don't need the information as you don't have the gun, I don't see that as an issue.

@Starver

That's a generic list. And furthermore, it's trying to get me and Hector to claim our role catagories.

Not at all.  I left you leeway enough for everyone (and it was also aimed at the others, partly/fully-claimed as they are, but never mind now) to keep it vague insofar as your own role, if you want to.  Looks like you both have dodged the issue, beyond even that 'allowance'.  But as you're the one with the gun, I think that rather narrows the logical course of action when it comes to firing said gun.  But you've really got to make up your mind on that one on your own.

Uh... no he doesn't. Assuming he's town, anyway. Even if he's not, he can't win the round by killing one person, so he at least needs to put effort into looking as though he's considering what the rest of the players are saying.

What issue did we dodge, exactly? How did you answer your own question when we've all pretty much come to the same conclusion re: role distribution in this round by, you know, reading through the thread?

@Starver

That's a generic list. And furthermore, it's trying to get me and Hector to claim our role catagories.

I'd like to say something. Didn't Hector (or someone) say that they thought the Blackmail was BS? So I think I'll reconsider this... he may not be lying about his throw away role, but he could definitely have an auto with an ability.

Missed this post.

I did say I thought the blackmail was BS, though this comes from fundamentally not trusting FoU this round.

I'm also not sure what you mean by the bolded part. Who is "he"? Me, FoU or Starver? (presumably not TBF)

PPE: aye, but what does discussion of the mechanics do for us? It won't help us figure out who is what.

@everyone Five players, five (or four) archetypes... What's your public assessment (without necessarily naming names) as to the tallies?

I'll start: 1 Investigator (possibly claimed), 1 Weakness (definitely claimed), 1 Scum (no less, unless else we're more Bastard than merely Semi-), and the last two likely being distributed into the Neutral/Special spectrum, but I'm wondering whether it's an "it's weak or neutral" situation, with two of one, or possibly one each...

You're just parroting the information that's already in the game.

TBF claimed investigator, FoU claimed weakness, and we must have scum otherwise it would be silly. How is this helpful information?
