If you were scum, who would you have prioritized killing last night?
if HHH was town I probably would have waited a day to kill them in case a doctor protected them n1. not really sure who else I'd kill though, no one else seems that much better a target than anyone else to me. maybe rocinate, but this might be their first game in a while ? so it'd feel kinda bad killing them.

I feel like everyone is acting kinda weird today but maybe it's just me.

I find it quite useful that I got the affirmative from DC. My role generated what now? I have my reasons to bring it up. I was not trying to throw DC under the bus. I already stated that. I didnt quite understand what you were saying earlier so I was putting some stuff out there that I thought was going to help clear the air. The whole reason I had brought up sending something was the fact that you rose from the dead. I thought DC did the deed of bring you back, but it turns out that it wasnt DC's doing. Not a problem. Think what you will, but I dont know why you say that there is no benefit of this info being public. I want to see what crystal ball you used to determine that.
When I say there is no benefit I mean to town overall. Scum clearly benefits from knowing what roles are in play. Town not so much. It behooves town to keep the identity of a resurrectionist secret. Safe. So questioning someone very publicly and then stating you did so because you thought they were the resurrectionist is of no benefit to town. Town can clear neither of you from this information while conversely you have told scum your role can generate abilities you believe to be on par with resurrection and pass them to others. This makes you a very big target. You also publicly outed DC as a recipient. This makes DC a target. So when I say there was no benefit what I mean is that you have potentially disadvantaged town as a whole while providing nothing to show for it.

Like I said, DC was the first one to let the cat out of the bag. I had mentioned nothing of a heal-shot until DC put it out there. I still dont understand why you are stating that I am an ability generator? It was a one time shot that I passed on because consepuentely, Ezlo wanted to go super big brained mode and decided that my character cant use my ability because I have nubs instead of hands. Also, the math is still mathing in favor of town currently on possible outcomes of people dying.

I will not say. If I say a name and that person ends up being killed then that would look bad on me.
not answering will look worse probably.

I keep saying you generated an ability because that is what a healy thing is? Maybe you are reading it as you chose to generate that but it was generated by answering a question correctly, as opposed to failing to answer right and not having that ability. This is just game fundamentals and is irrelevant. The relevant part is the function of what you gained access to. To that end you believed it could resurrect the dead. Further you were capable of passing it to another player. That is the information that did not need to be shared. DC calling it a healy thing is minor because it's vague. It could be as little as a single bulletproof shot or as heavy as a single doc shot. I doubt anybody contextualized it on level with a resurrection until you placed it there though. This is starting to feel like the thing with the thing from that one time and I don't want to bury conversation with it so this is my last post on it.

That’s a scummy way of thinking imo.
It called watching your back and having just a little bit of smortness in ya.
But you told everyone that you had sent Darth an ability first.
Never explicitly.

I stand by my reasoning. I have been and seen people get lynched for silly and garbage reasons. I note thiet mistakes and don't repeat them.

See I don't see why I am labeled as a generator. I answered my question correctly and that let me send it. No answer means no sendy. Minor but vague. That is still minor enough and vague enough to raise an eyebrow, if not both. "Hmm, someone said something about a healie thingie, but that isn't of any use to us Mafia. Definitely isn't a threat and eyebrow raiser." It is still an eyebrow raiser because it is of the healing world if things and because of how vague it is.Very true, I did goof up with saying it would being people back from the dead, but to tell the truth...... I don't even know what it does. I sent it, saw that you came back from the dead, and assumed that that event happened because I sent it. I wasn't told much about it and I didn't want to go further because, well I couldn't use it. Umm,....what thing with that thing. You could just say what Game it is from.

It’s called withholding information and makes you look worse.
Never explicitly.
True I guess, I originally interpreted your message as a courier.

It isn’t a mistake? It’s essentially asking who do you think is the most threatening to scum right now? Be that due to their role or due to their status in thread.
