Hmmm, good job Driss. Honestly didn't see that coming. I wonder how true that reveal is. Cuz if you think about it, that's a great scum power, reverse a heal/find/guard and kill a roled inno? Brilliant. But I don't think it matters if we believe him now, he's dead :)

whaaaa?

Maybe I am misunderstanding Kesso's comments on the Fener reveal, but I still think he's scum. In facto I think he's a killer and Silanah was his silencer.

Early on they had a bit of banter going on to make sure they weren't seen to be distancing each other, and then when it seemed like there was a possibility of them getting associated Silanah puts on a silly and confused case of me-and-Kess. Silanah silences me, hoping my inability to defend myself will result in me being lynched and when I come up inno Kess and Sil get off scotch-free (at this point they were pushing me and master and Kess was a possible symp). The confusion of the case because of its poor presentation and lack of actual evidence means it never went through.

Next day, Silanah gets voted out for a different case, no silence day 3, presumably none day 4 (Ampelas says nothing, Tellann still hasn't checked in since day/night 3).

If you were truly a monk who hadn't spoken in a score or more years, then I sincerely doubt you'd suddenly develop a habit of thinking out loud!

Joking aside, though, I hate you.

Um, I'm describing how they've interacted throughout the game, originally making sure they didn't over-distance themselves, and then followed by a couple doomed-to-fail accusations to make it less obvious, while continuing to support each other's cases and whatnot.

Addendum: He also wouldn't vote for Silanah (only him and Silanah had any votes on anyone else), but showed no hesitation in dirve-by-hammering Telas, even though Korv was waiting in place to do that when the deadline was closer.

edit: gram/cap

I'm a little concerned about these votes on Kesso. We have yet to hear from Liosan or Tellan in a really long time, and you guys are pushing a lynch based on a statement that made perfect sense to me. I, too, am interested in if what Fener said had any truth in it. I think there's still some weird hit-and-miss kill mechanic going on here and a symp could have easily inherited any power Fener had, so I don't know why you're saying it's impossible that Fener was adding a hint of truth to his fake-reveal. Frankly, I'm pretty suspicious of people who walk around, spouting off 100% truths and acting like the rest of us are idiots if we believe otherwise.

With that said, I'm also interested in this silence mechanic. Amp still hasn't confirmed whether he was silenced yesterday. Does it take effect just during the day, or the following night, as well? If it includes the night, I guess Amp doesn't have to say anything. Also, Tellan still needs to confirm. I see no reason for you to say it is unlikely someone got silenced yesterday with that still in limbo (unless the silence is a figment of your imagination). And can you not do anything when silenced? Even vote? That would seem highly overpowered (i.e. 3-2 would still be a loss for team inno if one of them is silenced). And why did you wait 2 days to tell us about your silence and flat-out lie the first time you were questioned about it?

Oh and HP, yes I did spam a bit day 1 and then toned it down, but that's what most people do (at least those who do spam day 1 at all), you get all your spam out of your system day 1 because there's nothing else to do and then day 2 you start playing for real on the actuall actions of people to the spam. I'm hardly unique in that. I didn't post much day 2 at all because I was not at work nearly all day and got home late to boot (tradeshow, very fun but very long and very exhausting).

I think everybody would assume it is similar to a Benses silence in that it can be used on scum, so it's not like revealing that you got silenced makes you CI and a more likely NK target or anything like that.

I voted Kesso because when I asked him about the quote, his only explanation was that he was thinking out loud? I dont' agree that it makes perfect sense either, I wouldn't trust anything a scum says-


Edit: should have said that: I don't agree that his quote makes perfect sense

A lot of points in there that need answering so I'm interjecting answers in blue.

It's rather uncommon for symps to inherit anything other than their respective killer's killing ability, and no, Fener's claims had no truth to them because there were 2 NKs last night.

You can talk at night, and either way we're into day now so Amp could talk either way. It's unlikely because no one was silenced Day 3 either and if they were gonna silence someone they'd likely have picked someone who actually talks, not Tellann the inactive. AFAIK you cannot post at all, no pics no quotes and assumedly no votes.

There was no point in revealing it first-thing day 3 because then the scum would just hide, so I waited to see who was silenced and how some people reacted to try and spot scum faking their surprise, but everyone checked in day 3, so I sat on it some more with the suspicion Silanah was the silencer (else why no silence day 3 when no one had even noticed it yet), and then day 4 there were a few not talking so I was hoping to see them all log in but they didn't.

Which is exactly why I held off on revealing it first thing, since as soon as I did the scum would suddenly be somewhat likely to silence themselves to confuse folks.

Plus there was still the very-real possibility that the scum didn't know each other and I was hoping to get one of them to think I was a symp and I could hopefully spot them trying to help me, but unfortunately the case on me died pretty shortly after.

Dude was wondering if the mechanic Fener described was a scum power rather than an inno power. What part didn't make sense?

K, back. Had to do some uni reg stuff. Now, Amp, what part of speculating before night ended was scummy or hard to understand. Shadow's problem was that there were 2 night kills, causing him to dismiss the entirety of Fener's reveal, but I don't know what that had to do with me. I mentioned that it was a cool role to have for scum, and suddenly I am scum? Like Shadow himself was so fond of pointing out, a grain of lie to distract doesn't make the whole reveal bullshit. There has to be some amount of truth, as much as possible even to make it easy to maintain. But it has no bearing now, because we can't tell what part of the reveal is the truth and which the lie. Ummm...Fucking Regis (Pat Sajack) and Kelly is throwing off my train of thought.

Okay, as I see it the people hungriest for a lynch, currently Shadow and Ampelas, are most likely scum as they know they're down by 2 and are looking for someone (me, dear God!) who they can drive into the ground based on, what, speculations about a scum reveal? That is so desperate its sad. I'm just having trouble deciding which one of you is more likely the killing killer that kills.

I think rule #1 of innos is not to defend anyone else, but, I mean, come on. Korv made the case of Kess symping you, not Silanah, and, even if it was Silanah, how does getting an inno lynched get him off scott-free? This case makes no sense. Either you're scum trying to make a break for the finish line, or you're a finder who knows something that you can't express...oh wait, the finders are dead.

Where does it say we're playing a common game where symps can't inherit powers? Or maybe Fener was describing one of his partner's powers? If the power exists and is still out there, then it's still a viable explanation for why there were 2 night kills.

On to the next point: you didn't ask if you could vote? That would be the first thing I would be concerned about and would like to clear up if I were silenced.

And how exactly were you expecting people to react to someone being silenced? How would they even know unless someone came out and said, "Hey, I was silenced yesterday"? That seems like something you could have done to actually get a reaction out of people.

And finally, how does you being silent for an entire day make a killer think you are a symp?

Your whole response reads to me like a scum who saw silence as a possible role and decided not to talk for an entire day to see if it would help him cook up a good PI story later in the game. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but you have already lied to me and you are cooking up bullshit cases, so I'm gonna stick to my suspicions. If you are innocent, you sure aren't acting like it.
