Isnt a single report plenty (town wouldnt lie about it)? only thing of interest would be other people observed targeting serp.

[marsmoons]

I did not target serp

[kaempfer13]

that was also unnecessary

[andretimpa]

On one hand, this was early enough in the wagon that it feels like fishing for a claim

So, is everyone just waiting for Linkcat now? If so and he clearly doesnt have enough time for proper thoughts, I think he actually should just hardclaim. We know his targets already anyway.

Also, I don't know what you mean by "we know his targets", reviewing Link's posts I saw no indication of who he targetted.

On the other hand, holstering N0 (when you don't even need to put much thought to pick a target) and not even crumbing the result about serp (or even leaving anything that could be construed as a crumb) is very scummy.

The deciding factor for me is that as it stands even if Link flips civ we potentially get more information (if anyone saw serp being targetted, that could get us Ingo)

Linkcat (5) - serprex, RootRanger, kaempfer13, marsmoons, andretimpa

[andretimpa]

Oh wow. Well, if Linkcat flips civ, we ask if anyone targeted serprex N1.

We are actually interested in people that saw serp being targeted, otherwise you are asking Ingo to out himself

[RootRanger]

Yah that post was kinda ambiguous lol mb

[Mobian]

Damn, Linkcat. Half the players are gunning for you. Do you have ANYTHING you can say in your defense?

[Linkcat]

You can bet your ass I do.

I hardclaim Sheed Ranko. I saved shock from the Nightkill Night 0, knowing that he would be a high priority target, since MW hosting leaves him as the best player in the game. However, on N1 I fell victim to my own arrogance. I dared to think of myself as a strategist on the level of a Primarch, and attempted to mindgate the mafia by protecting marsmoons, abandoning shock to his fate. The shame I felt upon seeing the results of my hubris cannot be measured. It was a grim reminder that I am but a humble servant of a superior power and intellect. I have no excuse for this failure, and I willingly offer up my own life in repentance. I can only hope that you may find it in your hearts to forgive my gross incompetence. Though the game is almost assuredly lost, once I have passed on I have no doubt that the Alpha Legion will continue to struggle until the bitter end. Comrades, I salute you.

Linkcat (6) - serprex, RootRanger, kaempfer13, marsmoons, andretimpa, Linkcat

For the Emperor.

[kaempfer13]

Sheed Ranko need not counterclaim. No way he would have said that about serprex result if that was his actual role

[RootRanger]

Ah, the classic Sheed's Greed and Mislead (formerly Chuck's)

[PlayerOa]

Linkcat (7) - serprex, RootRanger, kaempfer13, marsmoons, andretimpa, Linkcat, PlayerOa

So since Linkcat flipping red is a foregone conclusion, it's basically impossible that Oa is his partner. While he has parked on his partner day1 for no good reason in the past, this format is extremely prohibitive of it and it looks like he knew he wasnt gonna last with that role.
For some reason I feel less confident about serprex than I did before, but logically speaking everything speaks in favor of him, especially todays progression (and I already was fairly convinced he was town). There is a small rest chance that scum would go for towncred when it looks like Ingo Pech is gonna be mechanically found out anyway. Ofc all the later votes are completely meaningless.
I'm gonna need to see sth from Wyand and even if its just diffuse feelings. Even Oa has more actual content.
