You don't get it. If we don't lynch scum today we will lose even if we lynch scum everyday after that
(unless mafia kills sk or sk kills mafia, which is very unlikely)
Trundle is scum Im 100% positive, he's been lying to us this whole game, nothing he says adds up, and now he's coming up with the
only thing he can think of so he won't be lynched and I can't believe you guys actually believe what he's saying
Relax, my friend. I do get it. Do not worry so much. I appreciate your passion, though. Heh. You are playing for what you believe in and pushing it very hard - I like that. I was crowned King and will do the very best I can to put that power to good use once again. Please keep in mind that Mafia is in many ways a game of deduction, deception, and manipulation. At this stage, as far as I am aware, I am the only person who has a power to use during the day phase since I was Kinged and so I might as well take my time with my final decision, right? Town benefits from keeping people talking. The more information we have to work with at the end of this day, the better. We can then analyze people's post history for anomalies and slip-ups, see whom is suspicious of whom, and proceed forward with a clearer picture of what to do next.
But now that the thread is so derailed and
Trundle-focused that no other discussion is taking place anyways, perhaps there's no reason to delay any longer. In a worst case scenario it could just do us harm, since some more townies might end up needlessly roleclaiming.
Anyways, the way I see it, it doesn't matter if
Trundle really is the role that he claims to be (which I find very unlikely) or not. Let me explain why. Let us assume that he is actually telling the truth about his role - Then he'll go on a hunt for the SK tonight. He simply has no choice but to use his shot. Otherwise, the SK would just kill him and he'd be out of the game with a loss on his hands. But he has no idea who the SK is. That means that he'll very likely kill off a town player. Thus, lynching him DOES reduce the KP for the following night even if he's not the SK/Mafia and truly is the role he claims to be. As far as I can see, there's absolutely no solid reason to let him go on his murdering rampage tonight, just because he has a low chance to hit SK/Mafia rather than town. You could argue that if everything he's said is true, than keeping him alive would make the SK go for him and not someone else, but
Trundle's shot would be just as damaging to us in any case. Needless to say, I think he's likely full of crap either way, of course.
So I guess I'll just throw out the "
Intent to hammer" warning right now and check back in a short while before confirming it. If you have anything against that, please speak up now or forever regret it.
