I'm not sure I get this correctly, you're asking why wouldn't he lie to us about his role if he snaps? Well, now that he's revealed his snapping point, we would know if he's achieved it.  And subsequently, there are multitudes of scans. In the end, we can hold him accountable for his actions each cycle. Like it'd be suspicious if he's seen visiting the NK target if he claimed a role like Rioter.

I think my point is just: why is the snapping so special? Why does he have to claim his role if he Snaps? Arguably if he gains Seeker or Lurcher or Mistborn, he shouldn't claim since that just paints a big target on his head. I'm not taking this to be particularly AI but I'm not seeing why this should be the case.

Hold on, first off all, @StrikerEZ - is it possible for the Spiked to have Unsnapped in their team? Asking because it doesn't fit thematically.

Hmmm, I donno if he intends to or not. But just by making the statement, he's painting a target on his back and inviting all the scans on him. Hypothetically, if I had any kind of scan, he'd be a good target for me any time after that.

Instead of Inquisitor hunting? Because Stick raised a good point that I agree with - odds of Inquisitor!TKN are insanely low, and that the Inquisitor is the one player the scans can find, and I don't recall any other scans that are outward-targeting. There's much to be said about ideal Inquisitor profile, FWIW, but I think that is a fair thing to think about. And since the Inquisitor is essentially findable (and Seekers can't find any other Elim that way, and taking down the Inquisitor means no convert...)

I'll be fair: I'm not sure I strongly hold these positions but apparently I'm not just a legal advocate, fully licensed by the Steel Ministry, but I'm also a Devil's Advocate :eyes:

I wasn't talking about alignments scans actually. Rather, target scans and role scans. And even non-specific target role like Augur can track his actions. My point is, simply, his actions are accountable/trackable. I'd rather not use alignment scan on him, yeah.

Alignment Scan - oh yeah my bad >> there's no alignment smh xD

Oh. RIP okay I missed that :P 

I could sort of see that then, yeah. Minimally it'd mean E!TKN can't be DK C1.

Ngl low key want to V-read TJ for this. Feel E!TJ would be hyper aware of the alignment scan.

TJ, Fifth

Good to play with you again too. Is this just standard Kas procedure now? :P 

TKN. Happy to get this wagon to seven votes ASAP and let a Seeker, if one exists, sort him out at an indeterminate later point. I will say that his explanation of the snapping process feels…weird. 7 non-fatal votes are hard to come by without a claim. But if this helps discussion broaden a bit more for the rest of the cycle then I’m fine with knocking it out now.

Ahahahaha xD It's been a while since I've witnessed Stab Vote (TM) by Araris. This is hilarious. xD

Tineye is indeed also a target scan.

Apologies if I missed any questions from pages 2 or 3–still making my way through the thread.

I agree with the village read on TUN, though not for Stick's reason. I more agree with TJ, but will point out that TUN not needing the votes to stay for the whole turn makes this a much less risky play for e!TUN. In reality, this should be NAI, but I think I lean village anyway.

Just now, _Stick_ said:

Also how likely is it that all seven TKN voters are village?

I think there were only six :P

We had

TKN(7): Mat, TKN, Stick, TJ, Fifth, Araris, Aman

So yeah, he should snap probably by next cycle if he's being truthful.

Posted

Ok so I guess when you called for three more TKN votes you actually meant two more TKN votes

Personally, I don't think he should claim what role he snapped into. If he's elim and already has a role, this was a pointless exercise, if he was truthful than great we probably have another role. Small chance we just gave the elims another role but personally I lean on the elims having no unsnapped because thematics.

On whether all TKN voters are village, my vote was before TKN claimed and so is NAI, and I think the answer is 'probably not' but that would also be my answer if you gathered a pool of any seven random players so idk :P.

TKN

Why Ash?

I'm actually suspicious of this vote lmao :P. I feel like that vote you... well voted is a very easy vote for an elim to make. I know you make random D1 votes all the time but I'm feeling something off with this vote at time. It's a gut read of your vote. 

Mat

FIFTH! We're like the inverse of each other. We're always on the opposite teams, so this must mean you're evil this time :P.

The great thing is we have PMs, so he can claim to a select few of his choosing if he wants.

It's early on in the game. I'm not sure I consider it particularly risky. In an E!TUN world with that Unsnapped condition, he's basically boned, and it is better to make that call early than to make it mid-game when it can't feasibly be done and he would be more easily be killed. I'd rather wait to see how he plays in subsequent cycles before making a judgement call.

If you think I'm Evil, you're welcome to vote to C1 me. As long as I am alive, my job remains what it is: to ID what I think to be suspicious, and I don't agree with the degree of confidence you're ascribing to your reads this early.

Edited to add:

Like, where does this come from? Where is it more likely than for basically anyone? 

Kas, you're arguing both sides here when it comes to the likelihood of scans on me. I find your hesitance very odd, like, you of all people should understand getting a strong village read from a gambit (AG Tineye) or just having a strong v read in general d1. If you were anyone else and I didn't need my vote I'd be voting you right now.

I guess some of this boils down to my feel of the Tuatara case, which is sort of like Tuatara saying "I want to consider Croc indubitably not Spiked" except that was clearly deliberate and this just felt natural. I guess the fact I don't feel the judgement is a natural or obvious one also feeds into the fact I don't feel as positive about it here :P

I also haven't played with you in a Long While apart from LG83/LG84 - I'd count Falcon as an edge case because I spent most of the game thinking Falcon was someone else and this did affect the way I read Falcon (keep in mind I was also huffing E!Falcon for a decent chunk of the game, including in the dead doc thanks to Devo's trolling...)

Fair enough.

I think the issue is I don't understand why he's locked in to being truthful about his role if he snaps. Why is this especially true?

Because I'll be storming villager.

Really? Why do you so hate voting me? What is your reasoning for not voting me?

Well, if I die I don't snap, but otherwise, no.

No, wait, stop, I need more than seven votes, I need eight or more.

I'm not really sure how this works but I was the 7th then? @The Known Novel did you just snap or does that happen later?

I need eight! Don't unvote yet! And no, I snap at the end of the cycle when I don't die.

No, I need one more, but I think I need four more since you unvoted.

Do you have an extra life?

No. How would I have that? I don't get my role until after I don't die. If you think this is shenanigans to make sure thug me dies for some reason, I mentioned this a while back in response to something Kas said. And I outlined the 'I must not die' clause in there to.
