NNR: Pitiful Townie or Criminal Mastermind?
Here's a hint: It's not the latter.
NNR's cases have largely consisted of riding on the coattails of others' cases. BBM cites NNR's vote on Raikaria in Day 2 as an example; NNR's vote on me is another example, given that he initially accepted my claims but changed his mind while under the influence of Bard
I should remind you that Bard had already moved on by that point, in both cases. Hell, it was my case on you that made him reconsider, apparently.
This could be simply a consequence of Bard being loud and annoying, but is it possible that NNR is a scum mastermind taking advantage of others' cases in order to appear like he's scumhunting without actually putting in the effort?
I don't even think I read Bard's Raikaria case and I mostly skipped over the slapfight between you and Bard, honestly. It wasn't even motivated to play any more until I realized that I thought [your slot] was scum after all.
Furthermore, he goes an extra step to discredit BBM's opinions. The reason?
The reason is because BBM is trying to discredit me and get me lynched, obviously.
Perhaps he is scum, trying to force a mislynch on me.
Apparently being a counter-wagon to you makes me scum. Hmm.
Or perhaps he is just confused and disoriented. Is NNR deserving of our sympathy, or should we lynch him?
It's quotes like these that make me want to quit the game again :/
NNR has made several supposed "townslips" during the game. First of all, he asks the mod whether scum are able to act and kill in the same night. Secondly, he mentions how SB hadn't been posting, having "forgotten" that SB had been killed overnight. Normally, scum would be aware of both those things, so at first glance it seems unlikely that NNR is scum. But! There is the possibility of scum faking obliviousness as an artificial way of boosting his "town cred", so to speak. The question: is NNR cunning enough to be capable of such a deceptive art? Or is NNR actually just unaware?
@Admins: I'd like to request a tinfoil-hat-wearing emoticon please.NNR seemingly contradicts himself in Day 3: following my claim, he says he'll be set on Zakeri or Shadoweh. However!! Recent posts have revealed that he is absolutely unconcerned with either Zakeri or Shadoweh.
It's like I changed my mind after circumstances involving a slot that has had a hugely irritating presence throughout the entire game has suddenly been revealed to have the most bullshit role of all time. How can I ignore that and go for the lurkers that I've essentially been waffling on throughout D2? My desire to play was at rock bottom before DNA was probated, but now it's not, and I'm actually scumhunting now. Go figure!
His comments on Bard and BBM seem out of place as a result, since they are hardly due for a lynch any time soon. What is the reason for this discrepancy? Is NNR just town, faltering on his own opinions? Or is he scum, who never had opinions to begin with?
I don't think Bard is scum and I don't think BBM is scum, he's just making a bad case on me. I'm not even faltering on my opinions, I'm just giving a scenario in which BBM could be scum. The thought he is actually scum is somewhat nonsensical and if it isn't you should be reading him as the criminal mastermind, not me.
Just saw this when I was looking over NNR's posts again. NNR, are you seriously making the same mistake as Bard by going "Polaris is telling the truth" -> "DNA is lying" -> "DNA is scum" -> "Polaris is scum"? Because I already had this discussion with Bard B(
You guys share the same slot. DNA's shortcomings are identical to your own, and it's perfectly valid to consider his actions when considering yours. I think you're trying to avoid SOMEHOW getting lynched even though your slot has been caught so hard it's redder then a ravenous fleet of human-eating fire trucks.
NNR's post where he condemns Raikaria (town heroism? or scum exasperation?) and
What about it?
it is extremely easy and convenient for scum to mislynch my slot to death (but NNR could just hate DNA)
Occam's Razor applies here. Sometimes the reddest player actually is scum after all.
Can I at least get a statement from everyone voting Polaris that each of you believe Polaris is a Scum Roleblocker, because I will search through your posts all of day three, and every time I post I will rotate between those of you that don't in order, even during Lylo.
There's no reason not to assume he isn't a roleblocker. While that's a fallacy, we have no way to trace a roleblocker anyway aside from assuming that BBM and Raikaria aren't roleblockers from their roles. This would apply to Polaris/DNA if not for the fact he has no way now to prove his role and besides that his claims have been hugely unreliable and blatant fabrications so far.
