First to answer FT's question - simply put, I believe all characters are consistent with their roles and offered out the question to limit DF options for Fake RCs and to guard against the off side chance that mine was consistent but several other people were not. The question was deliberately phrased to give people every chance to answer yes unless there was a strong anomaly - no one has answered no, as suspected. It's real, primary purpose was to see who might be wary of giving an answer at all, and of course to get people talking again, but I'm a big believer in two birds with one stone.

Let's look at the CON question. Again, I believe everyone, including scum, can truthfully answer yes to this. We have received answers from everyone who has been present, except two, and all said yes. I exclude Talic, Blaine, and Amys as simply gone, and Hobo as having hit six days without posting, and Fox who is RBIRL

Of those who remain, all answered Yes to CON except:
Kronin - answered Kinda
Artsapat - has not answered

Note that Artsapat held off giving his reason not to answer until after everyone else who was around had said yes, except Kronin. He explains this as fear a role might be exposed, yet what roles would these be, to be blunt, I believe everyone is a Yes except possibly one oddball player and that therefore the risk is justified, as it is probably non-existent.

This draws the eye, and I will shortly explain how Kronin and Artsapat's settings are highly improbable, if not impossible, to match their other answers.

First however, let me point out the elections for chair. I noticed this afterward, when I was first going through the individual settings on Kronin, whose claim of female made line-by-line analysis of all major or recurring characters in his settings feasible. I had also noticed that Artsapat's settings did not match his MRE and MCS data in most cases, same as some of Kronin's. And that he was chair. It was an election by which he won 2-1 over DK, those two votes for Artsapat were from Kronin and himself.

Note: It is often common for DFs defending or supporting an ally to be leery of it, and often they rationalize 'But such open support would be so obvious no one would believe I'd do it' and do it anyway, yeah for WIFOMs. Trust me, DFs do do the obvious quite often. I, of all people, should know. Supporting someone who turns out dark is not proof of scumminess, but it certainly is not 'but I'd never be dumb enough to do it' proof of townies either.

Let's examine why a DF would want to answer with other than yes. Simply put, having given their settings they likely haven't picked a fake role yet, and probably did not check and see which fake settings offered characters they could claim in this regard. If you later claim to be X, and the only remaining character is is just not a logical X, you're in trouble if you said 'Yes' to consistency.

Remind me at some point to explain how any good trap in this game needs to incorporate Bait and Chaff. It's an important point that has some bearing on this matter but is fairly lengthy and I don't want to digress. There's also the advantage of 'Wad of Data' which is a bit different then chaff since it relies less on distraction and more on the target's desire to avoid great effort.

Let us look at there responses:

Kronin al'Sulc
MRE: UNC
MCS: UNC
GEN: Female
CON: Kinda
HDG:
Dr. McNinja
Barbieverse
Clue
Pokemon
American Idol

Artsapat
MRE: UNC
MCS: No
GEN: Male
CON:
HDG: No
Professional Wrestling
Monopoly, The Game
American Idol
GI Joe
The Apprentice

A quick note - both of them picked American Idol, a very strange pick for a reality TV show when both are claiming to be 'uncertain if this setting take place on modern real earth' these are obviously both blatantly fake - a reality TV show still on the air has to be the most ironclad example of Yes for MRE besides a news broadcast. However, the important thing is they both picked it, same as they both voted for Artsapat to be chair, and both refused to answer Yes to consistency... everyone else answered yes or is simply missing in the ether. Note also that both picked board games, clue and monopoly. They've both picked UNC for MRE, so let's look at the list minus Idol.

Kronin
Dr. McNinja
Barbieverse
Clue
Pokemon

Artsapat
Professional Wrestling
Monopoly, The Game
GI Joe
The Apprentice

First, Pro Wrestling is blatantly a MRE: Yes. Apprentice is another reality TV show, and there is only one person in monopoly - 'Rich Uncle Pennybags', who could definitely get a No for HDG, which he gave, but lacking any quality besides 'wealthy' would be an easy yes for consistency which was defined as 'no contradictory' and to which everyone was informed - especially Artsapat who asked after this before answering, was made explicitly clear he could answer "Yes" to whether Pennnybags was vanilla or roled.

This leaves only GI Joe - every character in that/show is either outright first-order do-gooder or dyed-in-the-wool cheesy bad guy, so a 'No' HDG answer means Cobra - personally I'm betting he's cobra commander. Regardless, he has only two scenarios for townie-dom remaining: 1) He is Rich Uncle Pennybags, or 2) He has answered the questions incorrectly and not corrected his answers even after others did with no repercussions and extensive dialogue and examples of what MRE answers were valid.

Regarding 1) Were this his real setting, odds strongly favor he'd have spent some time considering it and realized there was only on character, then answered 'board game character' instead, not wishing to have a single option for his real setting, he also answered settings after Kronin did. Furthermore, since it's clear - be he town or scum - that he drew 'inspiration' for his settings from Kronin, with American Idol and a board game, this seems an even stronger indicator the Pennybags option doesn't exist.

Regarding 2) This is possible, yet is grounds for lynch, as it amounts to strongly anti-town behavior by dint of leaving great room for scummers to maneuver out of settings traps, I obviously can't prove he didn't make a mistake or as a townie didn't lie or prevaricate.

Now to Kronin - again I draw your attention to the known acts of partnership, voting for Artsapat for Chair, and picking the same setting for him for American Idol and both having a board game in common. None of these are proof in of themselves, but keep them strongly in mind.

Kronin
Dr. McNinja
Barbieverse
Clue
Pokemon

Let's look at clue first. There are six characters in the game, three male, three female. Clue is basically to murder mystery games such as mafiascum what Lord of the Rings is to Fantasy, anyone could have done it anywhere with anything. So a 'kinda' for consistency is out, they could all hold any role or lack thereof without being inconsistent. OF the three chicks, White alone holds a vaguely mafiascum related possible role, she was originally patented as Nurse White, but this was dropped before the first edition of the game even came out.

Barbieverse - Barbie can do anything, she's literally the jack of all trades in that she comes as everything from a racecar driver, to police officer, to rocket scientist. She's also a MRE of 'Yes', because her setting is simply in default earth. This jack of all trades nature is more or less shared by other her sidekick, and to be blunt, I doubt ranagrande, a male, would be likely to be familiar with Barbie's various one-line dolls 'friends'.

Dr. Mcninja - there are only two female characters in this series, the doc's ninja-mother and an ape named Judy. This is not a really well known series, so I doubt it to begin with, but generally speaking I doubt ranagrande would have used very second tier characters from a little known webcomic. Although having read some of it, I must say it is rather humorous. It's also set in default modern earth, so it doesn't appear a great candidate for UNC, though maybe they skip around to weird places, I just read the first episode on his war with McDonalds. Ultimately, besides the character's mom and an ape being the only female characters, his MCS answer of UNC is ludicrous. "I am a secondary character in a little-known webcomic" is not a great candidate for Uncertain on a question asking if people came from a major setting or were major character.

Pokemon - The female protagonists from the game are Leaf, Kris, Lyra, May, and Dawn, plus Misty from the anime. I have difficulty seeing - from my own admittedly limited knowledge of this setting - why any of these would be likely to be 'kinda' on consistency?

Kronin explained his 'Kinda' on consistency by saying the flavor made it make sense, when queried regarding this, he did not respond and has not responded on the board and has not posted since then, going well beyond the 72 hour period, yet he can be shown to be not RBIRL, as Yunalesca, Kylia, and I can all testify he has been present on the RP Mafia Chat room during this period, as has Talic. He is a long-term and active player, a sudden disappearance just as a probing question was asked regarding an abnormal answer not associated to any RBIRL is highly suspicious.

To summarize, I feel both Kronin and Artsapat have exhibited other suspicious behavior I may detail later, but what we appear to have is two players with strong appearance of collusion - The Chair Vote and the similiar answers - as well very questionable if not outright false answers and an apparent strong desire not to answer certain questions. I'd advise everyone to check my data in case I made an error- there was lots of info, mistakes happen - but at this time I believe a strong case exists for both.

Unvote
