The Wander Island Incident - Night Four - Five For One [13/21]

This isn’t necessarily a scumtell, but it IS very very weird and I would like it cleared up.

ughghgh listen-
Despite everything, I am very open to clearing myself up if anyone- regardless of who they are, is (genuinely) confused by anything I said.

That said... just... just read these quotes of things I've already said in this spoiler tag and you'll get your answer:

Spoiler

you see, as scum on Night 1, I would be enticed to kill a player who has provided very little useful conversation/reads/votes during Day 1 to provide as little information as possible to the town

A lurker easily fits that bill

I would be less inclined to kill that lurking player if they were also aligned with me, however, for obvious reasons.

Do you see my point?

-I don't like the silent/low-info players (jwatch, slorange, NTA, Schaz and TehPilot) as their deaths would be "free" and therfor their survival is suspect, but after reeling back a bit, it's also possible they went after Reyweld because they wanted to 'nip that problem in the bud' so to say.

It feels like some people just aren't reading my damn posts

But, if you're asking: "Why jwatch specifically?" it's because they were by far the most silent out of everyone.

now i'm going to wash my damn hands of this aC debate because i've already said enough about them and i think my opinions are very clear by now

so here's another opinion, one that no one freaking asked for:

After taking a step back and looking over my reads again, I've come to theory that Sai might actually be SK. They seem unaligned with the mafia, yet also seem oddly concerned with their survival on a second glance. I point to post #203 as example and the fact that we only got them talking after we pressured them with a minor bandwagon.

As for my Numbers read, they feel suddenly scummy to me and independent of my read on Sai. People felt bad about them because they unnecessarily revealed some role gubbins about themselves (#268) right? But hear me out: what if that wasn't Number's role. As modini just revealed/clarified, the non-town players are given flavor in the form of fake roles that they may choose to claim as.

Additionally, Legendary Q tried to use this flavor in their defense (#258) and their fake claim did not match their actual role when they flipped in the slightest, (I bring this up because naturally a doc/lynch preventer wouldn't work as a maf role). I feel kinda bad for using this as my read, but if Numbers was a newbie player who was a nefarious Infiltrator, it would make sense that they'd claim their flavor fake-claim in their panic. Certainly, the "dini game special" of where scum are given fake roles to claim as, is a normally unusual concept- and Numbers just threw the information they were given out there in a panicked defense, due to their regrettable inexperience.

so blaugh.
