Your success as a deep wolf is exactly that -- a success. Whether or not some of us see through you matters not when, in allowing you to live, you can strategically kill off those who sus you to maintain some semblance of your deep cover.
You susing people out, as town, is useful I agree; however, as scum it serves only as to hinder town. Just look at last game. You were open to susing out Arrgh, but only
after others pushed him (read: me), and even then you only chose to vote him to receive something off of potentially losing him. You were not the vote which sealed his lynch. You were the one just prior to securing the lynch thereby making you look good if he was lynched, and at least showing participation should the attempt fail.
And it didn't stop there with Arrgh. You put forth a similar effort on Monster as well. Did you sus her? Most definitely you did. You also sure out a town player ***and*** pushed them over Monster (which is understandable). Point being, this is your tools at work. Your skilled reasoning and logic is assuredly sound for susing out suspicious behavior, yet, as scum, you will lead town to doom.
2) Everyone here has those same odds. I'm disregarding them I pursuing you. Mostly because I'm trying to play the bad cop, and I had to find a very specific chair to hit you with.
That being said, since I am focused on you, you make just as good a target as any. Especially if you are scum as, as has been indicated, you are certainly a threat for the town to leave around.
Also, why does a 7 player game automatically mean a deep wolf strategy is ineffective/not prone to work? The whole point of being a deep wolf is to appear as the towniest of town. It can work in a 7 player game, and your dismissal of that begs a different question. Why dismissal it when your point rings untrue? As for my angle, bad cop.
3)
Well, as I mentioned at some point in the thread, we have a game that is occupied by active players. So, unless you plan to adjust the goal post for being a lurker to apply to players here, I am going to be dismissive of your self analysis in terms of how you'd go about night killing players. By virtue of the fact we have active players, you, as scum, will night kill an active player. Probably not Dusky or JD. Maybe Arrgh as he is the closest to being a McLurker.
The remaining potential targets don't fit your self analysis.
4)
Jokingly? But it is true. At one point in my life, you were my master as I enlisted under your command at the Ivory Tower for a bit of time. Probably a few months. Admittedly I can't recall too much of that time frame other than some fragments. Chief among them being your tutelage in trying to refine my assortment of spells to help in dueling Nyphe and some others though I can't recall them.
But no, I don't call you my former master jokingly.
Plus I had to dredge up stuff against you because, again, bad cop. I suppose I can't hold it against you for not asserting the master thing, but eh. Your presence certainly can elicit that type of perspective in others. Your tool set can see to that.
Also, that sunless abyss is deep I'll have you know. With this being Day 1, there's a whole plethora of topics to possibly bring to bare. I mean, you are the same person that proposed that game plan of lynch me, kill Amber. Seems only fitting to throw stuff at you if you ask me.
5)
Given the context of this game, as I mentioned above, it isn't a bad conclusion for me to draw. After all, you can't kill a lurker in this game when practically no one will lurker (Arrgh being the exception obviously though I imagine he'll remain just at the bar of activity should he not be scum).
6)
The only thing that got outwitted were my pinkies. And that was by virtue of someone being a complete savage. Besides, I'm totally the last person to be neutral anyway so last game doesn't matter. I don't see why me not being neutral matters though. It's not like I'm in court arguing a case before a judge. Rather, I am playing a bad cop who has you as the target for being likely scum. So my entire purpose is to tunnel you into oblivion.
And win with the town too.
Also, I am totally not vengeful. Kinda. I mean, have you seen me take revenge on Dusky for leaving me to rot in my grave? I am obligated to say any future actions I take against Dusky can't be held against me given what I'm saying here.
7)
Yes, and that makes Dusky a weak point vs a scum aligned Skystone. You'll end up having an advantage because she'll protect those she reps as mayor. I mean, just look at how she has reacted thus far? Clearly your presence has shifted the balance in your favor while she is around.
8) How so? The possible lack of teammates doesn't negate that you act as a puppet master with your available tools. That is, you are more than capable of mind controlling town. *Cough*Dusky.*Cough*
9)
You could have said that in response to this entire line of conversation if you really wanted. But you enjoy the back and forth. After all, it is the interactions that make the game. That being said, the point still stands as it is demonstrable just from last game.
10)
That's more on the town than anything, but you certainly didn't go out of your way either to help town in that mechanical respect. Strictly speaking, you're able to utilize the style of Zinger by leading others on while also utilizing the style of HW and lying as much as you need to.
Evil. Like I said.
11)
Welcome for defeating the town, and having/letting me get night killed? pffffffffffffffffffff
It's not an implosion if there is no self destruction. Incidentally, Zinger and I had a bet going that never came to fruition since Monster wasn't pushed by you.
Speaking of which, Monster, if you ever see that chat, the avatar idea was not mine and I certainly don't want to be subject to any retribution from that discussion. Just saying.
12)
I'm only as good as the teacher.
/wrists
13)
You're not JD though. I'm not perfect. I wouldn't be me if I was.
14)
Too little too late now you mafia aligned chocoholic. Its only a matter of time now.
15)
>.>
It's all about the interactions. Mind-numbing as they may be.
So, big question is are you going to nk Arrgh for lurking?
