And now enough of them have unclaimed that you no longer find it plausible?
That's the part I now doubt. It has nothing to do with my role. I don't believe your role.
Indeed. What is¨my role, then?
Oh, right, you have absolutely no idea. But it's probably quite unbelievable.
But let's stick only to the notion that I don't need anybody to die to win. That is a pretty incredible claim. It could have been a clever lie, a massive bluff to throw people completely off the scent. Except there are other players who claimed the same as I did. Let's examine what this means for a second.
You're asserting that I am lying, that I am part of "a cult or some other scum faction". So what does that mean for the other players who also claimed not to require lynches to win? Are they also part of this "cult or some other scum faction" with me? Are you seriously alleging that we have decided to all inextricably link ourselves together openly, on Day 1, in such a way that if one of us falls, everybody falls? Gambling the entire faction on one massive all-or-nothing bluff without even getting a single Night to talk about it? And hell, even if the ruse did work perfectly and the entire town believed us, all it would take is one unlucky death from a Serial Killer or Paranoid Gun Owner or anything to cause our complete annihilation. It's a completely insane plan.
Isaac recently posted a deadline message, and ended it with:
OK, so let's look at the rules, conveniently written by Isaac, our moderator. Look at the topic headings. "Introduction," "Do's and Do Not's," "The Lynch." Clearly, Isaac considers lynching to be a "core concept" in mafia, and he would not have posted as he did if the town could win without lynching.
First off, I never said that the town could win without lynching. I said I could win without lynching and that I was categorically pro-town. The town probably still needs to lynch the scum to win. And this is why - and this will completely blow your mind - I have been trying to identify the scum and even attempted to get a lynch going yesterDay. You ought to remember. You were the target.
Now, you find it unbelievable that Isaac would design a game that would lead to stalling during the early days, despite the obvious fact that this is the most stalled game we've had since a time where Day 1 No Lynches were so common I had to openly declare war on the very concept.
Instead, what you believe is that Isaac made a post to call me (and others who have claimed as I do) as lying about our roles. This despite the fact that the very rules you quoted state that it is perfectly fine to lie about paraphrased mod information:
More importantly, since you also apparently believe that everybody who has claimed not to need people to die to achieve victory is lying as part of some scum faction, you apparently believe that Isaac posted specifically to out most if not all of the scum in this game, thereby instantly ending this game.
This, you claim, is more believable than the notion that this game would have been designed in such a way as to stall during the early Days, which it did. Really.
