Hey : )
Sorry.
Man I don't know.
I was also paranoid because things didn't add up. I'm just gonna talk about all the things I find weird and will keep checking periodically till I sleep (though I have to do some stuff for an hour and a bit after this). I know it's quite late to reverse the lunch or anything but I do want to talk about it.
• I guess hitmonleet's start of day post -kind of- makes sense if they're merlin and it's Josh, twin, asek and ag in their PM? I don't know why you wouldn't press a fake merlin claim harder though?
• Also irked me that they didn't just affirm that they were merlin at that point rather than 'it is as you say'?
• why the heck was Josh so adamant that they'd been inspected?
• twin knew that Josh was fakeclaiming (as he was disguise artist and Josh didn't list them), so why would they target Josh? Maybe twin thought he'd hit up Josh and either reveal that they were lying or confirm they were town but that target seems so risky.
• On Josh, man the aura guardian vs Josh is hard to see scum v scum. I'm Josh-sided on this one because I also thought that ag's vote of hitmonleet was by far the scummiest post in the thread, though I didn't push it nearly as much. Of course there's like "he KNEW ag was scum" - maybe I'll check back to see if there is evidence for that.
• why did ag push hitmonleet? Seems so out of place, and with ag getting lynched at that point why vote him if hitmonleet is town? Why if scum? Maybe so that we ask this q....
• is it actually possible that texas' pm said someone other than Josh/hitmonleet? (Really someone other than Josh? - because then that gives more validity to what Josh is saying - or that what he's saying is true)
• Another question I don't want to spec too much on but basically is that has Josh lied multiple times (more than one lie rather than the same lie multiple times) about role etc.?
• haven't digested all that Mithril has posted but they've seemed to flip on the idea that hitmonleet can't be merlin
• has hitmonleet been coached through answers?
I want to hear more from asek talking about hitmonleet's start of day post and also reads post (pg. 8 iirc - my phone is messing up so it's hard to quote). What do you think about them? I want you to think hard rather than just Josh = scum because I am struggling.
Asek; I think it would be hitmonleet + pancake/mithril but if it was Josh, I don't really know. There's "way too obv" King_ but I can see a Knight/King_, ag, Josh team doing that. Other than that I don't know, prob not pancake cause I think twin wouldn't have targetted them.
I think more it's hitmonleet scum because of the ag stuff and some of the stuff in Hitmonleet's game can be addressed by daychat whereas question marks about Josh scum don't have as clear answers (but I realise occam's razor and the reverse is probably true of town scenario's - as in it's easier to explain hitmonleet town than Josh) but I'm so full of self-doubt and I do keep turning on this. And I REALLY want to hear Josh's answer to my q. v below!
Anyway
Josh if you're around; when did you know texas was percival? Please answer if you can! It's important!
p-edit:
Haruno will look at your plan but just basic skim, but I don't think bg can't target merlin.
Bye : )
