I have no idea wtf the cops thing.
anyway uh. well. I have more responses to what Pala is saying, but ... um ...
here's the big one:
if he's telling the truth, why the hell would he not go for a trivial joint win instead of a guaranteed loss?
someone with the wincon of "bodystacker OR survive to scum overrun" (which btw is nothing like the winefia anti-town third party who literally just won if town lost, and was really just a traitor for a game with two scumteams, but whatever.) ... in this gamestate, wins by nolynching, guaranteed?
if he's shot, it's 2v3, he's revealed as a truthteller, and town wins with two alive, triggering the bodystacker win. if a townie is shot it's 2v2v1 and he just helps lynch a townie and is alive for scum overrun.
so in short: if he was telling the truth, his play makes no sense.
But also, MY play makes no sense? Like, why the hell would Schazer and I have been pushing him to test what he was claiming if we were scum? We'd jump on any excuse possible to get someone lynched who *wasn't* supporting our stories, rather than pick holes in the definitely-false claims that would potentially reveal us as scum.
but uh, not sure responding to this more is useful. if Akumu has any questions, *or* both seedy and tehpilot have questions/arguments/whatever, I'll respond - but at this point it's pretty damn clear to me that the scum are pala plus either seedy or pilot, so ... ... yeah.
