For me...the fact of the matter is we cant trust them no matter how much we mull over it or think it rings true!...
its just wifom which ever way you are inclined and any one of them are good enough to pull a fake reveal off.
So testing it or seeing their CF's is really the only way of sorting this mess out i think.

So what, we vig two random people just to test them?
Like I said before, that's not an exchange I find too positive.
If we don't trust Silencer (of the two, he's the one whose reveal bugs me the most), then we ask him maybe to prove it, but both??

the reason we're hesitant is because the roles aren't NECESSARILY mutually exclusive. we COULD have 2 day vigs. I won't like the setup if true, but it is possible.
also, there's a bit more to this. HD's been trying to tell us the game's Not M+P since Day1. today he got more open about it, without hinting he had a role. then Silencer comes out and says "I can prove i'm inno, but you won't like it". this can be seen as a roled reveal.
which is then picked up by HD, who hints at being roled, too.
pressure on thread gets HD to say he's a Day vig, at which point Silencer says "me too!"
the sequence of events that's fit scum behaviour is all out of whack here. in this scenario, either they are both inno, or they are both scum, in which case, paired symps???

this
also, wcs, we DO have 2 independant killers, and we may lose both of our PIed players in the night. with a lynch, wcs, we could lose 5 town in one cycle. that's too much for slim risk of gain.
HD, Silencer, does your vig send day to night?

The whole "I can prove I'm inno, but you won't like it" sort of thing I don't like and never much do. Too often it is used by a scum planning to reveal who is testing the waters before deciding which fake reveal they're going to go with. Considering Silencer then waited until HD's reveal to full reveal could be more indication of this, too.

problem is, HD's been hinting at being roled since Day 1. and if he's a symp, who is he symping? (this also applies if Silencer's a symp)

i dunno...i think you are looking at it as being too "black and white"
what if one of them is scum?....and we giver them a pass?
this is the nature of reveals.
We can never trust them untill they are proven with action.
Unfortunately vigging is a rather harsh way to prove something....and also the reason why it is a favorite easy role to fake reveal.
I feel in my gut that both of them are probably telling the truth....but then...i also feel its a pretty well executed fake reveal if you think about it.
just dunno...and that is where my problem lies.
Look i dont mind dying...getting vigged for me aint a big deal...and maybe thats what the issue might be here.
Maybe you are interested in self preservation.
(although in truth i really dont get that from you, just another way of looking at this)

the only person who I saw reacting scummily at the reveals was Bent, but he may have been simply drunk, since he changed his tone once he supposedly understood what was going on.
the person i'm most worried about is Venge, but he won't be on untill late tomorrow, which frustrates me all the more, since I can't get any read on him at all.

What pisses me off if we ask them to prove it now is that day vigs can have interesting uses for town, and it is not "saving the asses from these players from a lynch". Although that is the fault of the reveal-monkeys, maybe they should have spend more time thinking this over.
And if the mods made the effort to put two of those in the game, it may be because they have even more uses that we can't see now.

who knows. I dont see why for someone to be seen as a symo you always need a person he is symping...tat never works anyways becasue symps are never obvious enough unless their boss is seriously under the kosh.
Look... HD has been receiving quite a bit of heat from the beginning of the game.
Maye he felt he could fake reveal and cause some confusion and gain a few more days before he inevitably gets lynched or something.
i dont know.
because its less plausable i dont think we can just write it off though...
Let me put it this way.....in a game like this...i would definitely be trying to pull something like this.
maybe they are both the killers and are mindfucking us..WE JUST DONT KNOW.

i dunno where it leaves us...this reveal is tough...and it really doesnt gell with a M&P game.
I think in the future for a game to M&P we need to have all the possible roles out on thread in the op.
Because once we have to start guessing about what possible roles could be and stuff like that it start detracting from the game and stops becoming a M&P
but thats for another time and another conversation i spose.
as far as venge goes.
I said...that guy is cummy...or scummy.
i aint even kidding,
He was going on about not caring about catching up and only reading the last 5 pages anyways etc etc.
i know i only play like that as scum...because when you are a killer you only really need to know what the immediate danger against yourself or your team is.
Other than that you dont need to waste your time reading over every post trying to find scum...why would you?..you know who they are!!

If we were certain one is lying, then the idea of asking them to "vig" each other is win-win: the honest one survives.
However, if they are both honest, that is one big waste (although it could show us the scum, who won't be able to post for a few days while they try to catch their breaths from the laughing.)
I, for one, can say I'm not convinced one is lying.
