Is it? As you say, it's the second day in a row that you suggested one, and you followed the same formula both times. You made an argument against someone and when the town didn't follow suit you suggested no-lynch as an alternative. Yesterday everyone went along with your earlier plan and lynched White Flame. Maybe today you thought that they really would go with the no-lynch?


We just want a lynch. Obviously we'd prefer a well-reasoned one with a high probability of catching scum, but random lynch is better than no-lynch.


Except that in your case, it would become an empty victory either way. If you're telling the truth about your role (and if you're not, we'd have to lynch you for that too) then you don't have any night actions. You're trading your own ability to act during the day to count on someone else's ability to accomplish something productive at night. We can all probably be certain by now that we are in a fairly heavily roled game, but there's still no guarantee that the people with those roles will make the right choices. We could very well end up in exactly the same place tomorrow, except that the Skrull will have gotten a free kill out of it. I don't know about you, but I would never even consider making that sacrifice if I didn't have some amazing night powers. I probably wouldn't even consider it then.


If it was indeed just a ploy to get people talking, then I would understand and even applaud the effort. If that was your intention though, it was not as obvious as you seem to think.

Besides, there is clear precedent for lynching people who demonstrate anti-town behavior even if they are not prob-scum.


Good, I'll look forward to seeing what you have. Meanwhile, I think that I will keep my vote where it is for now.


It's possible. As I said, your suggestion followed the same basic formula as Day 1's, except that this time you actually voted for it. Maybe after lynching a townie yesterday you really did believe you could get a no-lynch today.


As a townie, I suppose it could just be that you like trying new things. In the Pirates vs Ninjas game you suggested the encrypted mass roleclaim even though you admitted that you didn't think it would happen and even though early mass roleclaims are a bit scummy in their own rights. That one worked out very well for the town. As a townie, it is possible that you really were trying to help, although I would say that this particular tactic was misguided at best.

As scum, there are many reasons why you might employ such a strategy. You are, after all, the player who once won a game for the mafia by not using your night kill. It's hard to say what plans or plots you could be using.

It's also hard to say what additional powers and effects could be in play, since we know that this is a heavily roled game. Maybe you have some special Skrull power that gives you an extra nightkill if the town doesn't lynch someone? Maybe if the Negative Zone transporter thingy isn't on cooldown like it was yesterday you could throw someone into it?

There are just too many unknown variables at this time to be certain.


This is still possible, and it is the only scenario that looks good for you. I do want to see what else you can come up with, but right now I still think you're our best option.
