Since it is the only part of my cases that I still consider has an alternate possibility, I will note this.
One of CATS or Kyon has to be scum. Kyon claims a post restriction (That he hasn't actually named. Being quoted isn't a restriction on you, SOS Slave Boy) and CATS.. yeah. I think his buddies would be bussing him out the window if he were faking. Monoe originally brought it up, but Anonymous asks
here why Whim would get killed instead of John Cage if scum were looking for power roles. The simple answer to that is Whim looked like she had a posting restriction, and unlike CATS or Kyon wasn't on the lynchable list. Night talk isn't PR enough to kill over. (also Cage is scum and not going to kill himself!)
This doesn't change the rest of my cases, but today opened up some interesting possibilities when I look into the probability of Kyon-scum. Also it wouldn't be fair to ignore Monoe more today when she's the only person in this town I can agree with.
From the perspective of Kyon being scum. Well first of all, Kyon flipping red would guarentee Mai gets lynched tomorrow with him. There's alot of Mai/Kyon scumteam talk going around today. I'm not even sure why. If it wasn't obvious I've been prodding her all game to stop being the mislynch I see her as, and that's why I said she was useless to town if she couldn't produce any cases. Personally I think declaring your scum partner gut-town and a easy mislynch townie gut-scum in the ED1, then basing the entire next two days of your cases stubbornly on this would be a monumentally stupid scum strategy. It attracts attention and makes you a target. Kyon also
responded to Mai's town declaration by immediately clearing Mai for what he admitted was scummy behaviour. Then he attacked me for defending Mai's scummy behaviour. >_> I guess you really can declare someone obvscum in their first two posts.
Day 2 Kyon-scum has some good connections with Anonymous and Chitose scum. Beyond the amount of Kyon-flailing that people have been talking to death,
Anonymous,
Chitose and yes, also
Cage pursue Light over Kyon for wonderfully questionable reasons that still make them sound like they can switch back to Kyon if the arguments go back that way. In order, Anonymous clears him for putting out more :effort:, Chitose clears him for looking the worst D1 but having an interesting Light case, and Cage clears him for being marginally better then Light. By the way, as of Day 3 Light is town. I'm about to get into why.
So something reallly interesting happened Day 3 to support the case of Kyon being scum with Cage, and scum Cage in general. The four possible scumspects hop onto Mai. A heap of town-looking people hop onto Kyon. Kyon is at L-2. Then Cage appears with
post #415 and this comment on Mai/Kyon:
]Kyon's post makes me feel nervous about a Mai/Kyon connection. It feels a lot like Kyon sees this coming and is trying to distance. Note that he seems most nervous about Mai calling him town "unsupported". This reads a lot like "Fuck, scumbuddy, don't DO that"
Cage then proceeds to rage and vote for Kyon, putting him at L-1. This is hilariously not excusable as an accident since Cage puts in
BIG BOLD LETTERS that Kyon is at L-1 and NO ONE BETTER DARE HAMMER HIM. Light responds within minutes with an unvote.
THIS UNVOTE IS THE TOWNIEST THING LIGHT HAS DONE ALL GAME. Cage's
post #420 is trying to softly encourage Light or someone else to put Kyon back at L-1 to "See what he would do."
So what would it be? What do you think a scum-Kyon would do in this situation? I could guess what a scum-Kyon would do.
HE WOULD FREAKING HAMMER HIMSELF BECAUSE YOU PUT HIM AT L-1. That's what would happen. This entire day would get cut short. No questions, no claim, no cases from Protoman because he'd die Night 3, no need to do anything the next Day but say "Oops but I was right and Kyon was scum, now let's lynch his partner Mai!" Cage gets to ride on townie cred and direct lynches for the last two days, with CATS being the most likely mislynch after Mai.
You know, I like this possibility alot more then CATS now. CATS actually answered my questions, and the other scum's soft attacks can be interpreted as testing for cases and fake links. Either way, one of them is scum. I hope this makes up for all that dismissing of your case I've been doing Monoe. Everyone town, Discuss!
