Why is it scummy to elim someone who claimed scum, claimed Libk is scum, and given two uncertain scumreads? What else do you do with that slot?
First off I don't understand this lynching the mod thing. Shouldn't we just go ahead and lynch the mod? Will that end the game? After the mod made a rule stating no more claims hard or soft, it makes more sense to lynch him now considering that hurts town making it harder to solve the game. Alternatively, considering this is a bastard game we could break the rules, and make Mellow Ezlo claim anyways, perhaps he would get mod killed and save us a lynch?

This line of thinking assumes a modkill would end the day which is not usually the case, then assuming you no lynch afterward that changes literally nothing.

Unless I misunderstand your reasoning here?

It is interesting that Libk made the no claims rule after Mez's claim.

Mez is a strong player though, and not chaotic for the sake of chaos. I'm not sure what the deal is here. He hasn't played in a while and I could see him pulling a gambit for a bastard game, but not something super crazy?

I have further information regarding the identity of a few Spaceball-aligned players that I can share, and may soon, however at the same time I would like to avoid painting a target on their heads.

I am at work now and probably won't post again for a while so I'll just say that both me and Libk, eventually, will likely have to die, as will the rest of Lonestar's crew. Be nice to me for now though and I will tell you all who the three Spaceballs I know the identity of are.

Also I just realized I originally read this wrong. You know 3 town players and you won't out them so you don't paint a target on their heads? How does that make sense? Unless the deal is that Lonestar's crew doesn't know each other, and Mez is using this as an elaborate ploy to out himself to the others.

i got the impression libk felt the game might be broken by mass-claim and that it was heading in that direction after ezlo's claim and so they did damage control

that could be reading into things too much though

Tbh it probably is reading into it too much. Damage control would look pretty suspicious ngl.

No it was just time for the rule to go into effect

I have a theory, and I think based on what I know that it holds water. I think MightyMario and Seanzie are both members of Lonestar's crew and that everyone else except myself and Libk are Spaceball aligned.

As an important note, this has nothing to do with in-game behaviour and everything to do with mechanics. The new rule makes it tricky for me to elaborate unfortunately, but I can try if anyone wants me to.

Also note that I'm not 100% sold on this, but I feel fairly strongly and am willing to put myself up for lynch if it is ever proven incorrect.

Well, actually...

That wouldn’t be balanced at all. It would make an unfair advantage for the Spaceball side!

Of course, I am top salesman for a super villain appliance company... what would I know?

I don't know what abilities the other Lonestars have and how much killing power exists within their faction, nor whether or not they know each other's identities (I don't). I know who exactly half the spaceballs are and I would like to protect those people, if I can.

If it would help my case to reveal who they are then I will, but I would prefer not to.

They seem to be saying there are 3 players and the host all in Lonestar's crew. Considering this is a 9 player game, why would that be advantageous to Spaceballs?

Yes I am the mighty Cthulhu why have thoust summoned me

Clearly the no claims is mellows ability and they activated it so they couldn't be counter claimed at any point

libk is playing? usually the host only moderates the game

keep in mind that i’ve only done marioboards mafia games and this is my first zd mafia game so i guess the rules are a little different here
