I was thinking that Pleo could have been a scum detective but, then again wouldn't Idle have told us that? He may just do that yet -- the Day is technically over, but we haven't heard the lynch report yet.

Is there a precedent for acting with a scum claiming town detective? Well, there was the one game over on the SDMB, coincidentally enough entitled " SDMB Mafia", where this one scum player pulled a brilliant gambit, integrating himself into town as a detective and railroading townies into a crushing scum victory. *Sigh*. Hal, darnitalltohell, I really, really, want to believe you are a super-duper Townie Detective and you'll lead us all down the golden path to victory. I had just about squashed my little voice nagging at me that something is not right. Why did you have to post this? I can't tell who did what to whom in that game, but you and Pleo both played that game. You are both capable of pulling off the same thing in this game. Snipped and bolding mine And the best game I ever saw played by scum (a different Alias mafia game), two scum bussed every one of their teammates (including me, in that game) to sail to the endgame as "most trusted town."Ya know, I'm almost suspicious of Hal's seemingly superhuman ability to sniff out Scum in this game, but there's got to be an upper limit on bussing Scummates...and I'd think it's somewhere less than 4.
] Straight Up Hal, I just got out of the shower, and I was thinking "Would Hal and Pleonast go that far deep down with each other?" I think this bothers me the most: Am I mod-confirmed? Of course not -- I never claimed to be, no one believes that I am. Townie points to you for making sure everyone remembers that every time I make a reveal. Understood -- either I'm exactly what I claim to be, or I'm pulling off one of the best scum-gambits ever. Best scum-gambit ever!

Heh...no, not this time (that was SDMB Mafia! But really, it's ok to be suspicious. That's what this game is all about. And eventually scum are going to pick off the doc and I'll be vulnerable, or scum will take a crack at me when the doc is looking elsewhere (the perception of protection can often be more useful than actual protection). Either way, I'd doubt I'll see the endgame -- and that's ok. Then the rest of you will then have concrete knowledge that my town investigations are town, and confirmed townies are the most valuable resource at the endgame. Now if only I could stop finding scum so often! ;D

NETA, do upset him, you might find anther scum. Voting Hal on Day 8 is NOT out of my realm of possibility.

The only person I can trust at this time is ME but I can be trusted because 4 other, now dead, Masons have confirmed me. I am fairly sure I will be killed tonight but remember my vote on D5 for jmnlike, haven't got notes with me so I apologise if I got the name wrong but you know who I mean.

I'm in complete agreement that Hal is not confirmed town, and there's still a possibility that he's Scum, but there is no reason to vote for him in this upcoming Day. All he's done recently is identify Scum for us to lynch. As long as he can continue to answer the question "What have you done for us lately?" with "Found you yet another Scum", there is absolutely no reason to vote for him. Even if he were bussing his teammates, there would be no reason to stop him as long as he continued to do so. All of this assumes, of course, that Pleo does in fact flip Scum

To clear things up -- I was being factitious in my "disappointment" with Meeko. I was jokingly saying that I was getting tired of his anti- Pleo stance, right up until I found out he was right. And yes, I investigated Pleo and got a result that he is (and I quote) "The scummiest scum that ever scummed around". Thanks for the clarification. Ah well, buh-bye Pleo!
