'hmmmm hmmmm hmmmm, yes, yes, yes, in my very high IQ (very high) analysis there are parts of Jim's stated claims and actions that don't make sense within the premise that he's cult, but I can still conveniently rationalize them away as needed'
Or maybe, I actually did (attempt to) inspect webadict, since I could have confirmed that he inspected as mafia and also learned his win condition, which would tell me what his alignment actually was regardless of what he inspected as.
Yeah, here's the thing. Your stated claims and actions do make sense within the premise that you're cult. The idea that you'd convert Web may not, but inspecting him does, as you want to know who the other cult was.
Also, I suspect that as cult leader, you would lie about your actions. This being Mafia and not Hungry, Hungry Hippos. So even if you actioned Web, claiming it was an inspect rather than something more hostile wouldn't be out of the question. But hey, it could just be an inspect.
Maybe Egan and I are wrong about the conversion attempt. But... there's nothing about your being cult that doesn't chime perfectly with your stated actions and (mechanically) safe playstyle.
It's a nice trick: pointing out that a deduction I've made from the evidence must be unsound, and declaring that I thus should not trust the evidence because I can't reconcile it with other evidence. But I can reconcile it just fine - it's the deduction that was invalid.
As I've said... Jimnosis doesn't work on everyone.
There's also nothing about my stated claims and actions that are out of the ordinary for me being town. It's dishonest for you to argue like inspecting webadict is something I would only do as a cult leader. blah blah rhetorical tricks blah blah whatever you're doing the same
You've conceded that I probably don't recruit webadict, and you can't argue that I didn't target webadict since I revealed I couldn't target him before Egan_BW revealed that they made webadict untargetable, so what else do you think I could've been doing? If I'm town, it makes sense for me to inspect webadict. If I'm a cult leader, it also makes sense for me to inspect him, but there are more important things I should probably be doing instead.
I'll give you that a cult result on a player is a pretty good reason to suspect somebody, but it's also not correct. If you want to be NJW2000BC and say NJW SEE PURPLE NJW WANT KILL then I can't stop you, but there's also no reason to say all this shit then. If you want to be NJW2000AD and say 'I am too learned and wise to be befuddled by Jimnosis' then you also have to acknowledge some inconsistency here.
lucky number speculation
You know, if at any point anybody else wants to share what they know, I'm willing to share what I know about them.
This is a rather odd way to go about it... one shouldn't be thinking about reciprocity. If everyone should know the info, tell us, especially if it won't be revealed in your flip. If it's knowledge that should be kept out of cult hands, take it to your grave. No middle ground for town... so I guess you're openly bargaining with the other cult leader?
Have you noticed that literally nobody besides me is bringing this up? Don't you think that's weird?
Why is everybody specifically avoiding revealing what the lucky numbers do, except for me? Why is there interest in speculating on what the numbers do, but no interest in identifying players like me who have information but are unwilling to share it?
I'm trying to bargain to reveal the information because I want more information to come out besides my little piece of it. I could reveal what I know, but given how nobody wants to touch this topic with a ten foot pole, I suspect it would end there.
plans
How about we do none of these options since I'm not cult?
So ask yourself, where did the idea of two independent cult leaders come from? Cui bono?
The Day 1 opening posts says
cults.
There are Cults among you. Horrible ones. Find them before they dunk on you.
Cults have to have leaders because if the conversion was mechanically tied to the team rather than the leader there'd be no way to get ahead of them.
Assuming that cults in this game work like they're normally expected to, which there is no guarantee of.
