but youre asking him to debunk your 9/11 theories. And that isnt his responsibility

he doesnt have to verify to you if he is or isnt doc

by telling you my claim is real he is claiming doc
by him telling you he has no idea he is claiming not doc

therefore its a catch 22 youve created as a false dilemma

he shouldnt have to say anything at all about the doc unless he is the doc and didnt save me

in which case he would ignore all this

and by ignoring it he would be confirming to you he isnt doc or is doc

so the only answer is that lfischl should say nothing about this
ir rather in this bizarro world he would claim and id get eliminated and it wouldve been a meaningless trade on my part with zero intrinsic value

I'm not asking him to reveal whether he is doc or not. Just whether he is self-saving doc or not.

Completely separately from anything Damo-or-Doc-related, I reckon that hammering now takes away the "I thought the day was longer and was planning to post late in the day" excuse from a potentially Mafia Super-Lurker lfischl, who just won another game as a Super-Lurker Mafia, and from what I hear is on a roll of 2 evil victories and counting...
I don't know about you folks, but if I keep winning a game by doing XYZ, I always take the approach of "don't fix it if it ain't broken"
Nah, Lfischl is town this time
Is this like when parents of identical twins tell you they can tell them apart and you and everyone else around is like "yeah, right"? :)

To be fair, I am having an incredibly difficult noticing anything different from either lfischl the Lurker or rdrivera the townie logic player between the last game and this game.

Bozo used to be in that same category, but has (a) discovered jokes and (b) feels like engages slightly more than last game so now I at least have a sembalance of a read – however correct or incorrect it will turn out to be when the dust settles ...

also this line of play is the only angle you have as scum to still openly doc hunt.

as town you would see the possible danger as being more pertinent than this

he can be town doc and have done something other than self save.

why is it important if he self saved vs if he saved geordi la forge or commander data? why is that detail even important unless you wanna know if he is able to die soon?

lfishcl should just say nothing

if he is doc he shouldnt be claiming it
if he isnt doc he still shouldnt be claiming that either

so what is the reason to wait for lfischl to confirm something
If he is doc who self saved he should say so as this would make you (or him) a liar.

If he is doc who saved you or not the doc he should say nothing.

So: He should either say

"I am doc who self saved, let's kill brain"

OR

"I have nothing to declare"

No unnecessary info is thus revealed.

I am not PR hunting, I am merely trying to find out if you lied.
Reposting this as it has apparently been missed.

I feel like that character who keeps having the spell haste cast on them with no regard for how old they get even though they are human.

you are just hastening me repeatedly to waste everyones time

It probably doesn't matter if you kill me- it will go like this

Now 9-3
Kill me 8-3
NK (not brain) 7-3
Assume Maf block (TFB say) and TFB claims "I am doc and saved brain" and real doc doesn't cc before EOD you panic and switch to a town 6-3
NK 5-3 Real doc counterclaims EON
Kill TFB 5-2
NK doc 4-2 with brain as clear (unless he is dead doc).
Have to get it right, assume success 4-1
NK (brain if not already dead) 3-1
No kill
NK 2-1

Hope for the best.
doc doesn't cc at eod4? what?
WCS, they not online say.

Either

doc saved you and this could be fish, you or anyone else (obviously not me otherwise I wouldn't be asking) and fish simply says "I have nothing to declare"

or

fish self saved and you are a liar

or doc saved somebody not you or fish and you are a liar but we can dismiss this as saved person would surely have spoken

or doc saved fish and you are a liar (doc would not have revealed but a saved fish has not yet had opportunity to speak - I hadn't thought of this.

So, there is an additional statement fish could make "The doc saved me not brain, let's kill him."

I acknowledge that the most likely situation is you are telling the truth but I just want fish to have the opportunity to speak.

Actually fish need not differentiate between self save or saved by A.N.Other he can merely say

"I know brain to be a liar"

OR

"I do not know brain to be a liar"

This way no clues as to the identity of the doc are revealed.

Ofc if you happen to be doc (and I hope you wouldn't have revealed) it doesn't matter as you'll be killed tonight anyway.

In fact your reveal virtually announces you are not doc - another reason why it was a bad move.

It was based on the daft notion that if I make an alphabetised read list it means I'm scum.

I rarely make a readlist day 1 but it was unusual be vigFlum shot copJamie and we could observe people's reaction. This is why I made the list. I simply went down worcej's alphabetised list making a comment on each person.

I don't understand this part:

- Assuming the reveal is true, Mafia tried to both kill and RB brainbomb

- So Mafia they already know brainbomb is not the Doctor by definition – otherwise, their RB would have worked, right?

- Why is it a bad move to also let the rest of the good Townies know something that Mafia already knows in such scenario?

I do not townread Damo. Damo continues to be NAI for me, and the relatively most Suspicious of my NAIs. They would not be my first choice of the vote, but they are a high-info flip for the town regardless.
