I'm picturing Idle as Tommy Lee Jones in Men In Black:
"Eat me. EAT ME!"

This is so implausible as to be suspicious. Read it as you wish. Yeah, that's... possible, I guess. But very unlikely - particularly given how it went down, with one player both claiming for another and for himself. This early, such a move would be hugely risky for a Scum player. If one of them dies - and let's face it, now that they're out there as claimed Witches, they're huge targets for being killed even if they're lying! - the other will be lynched immediately. I don't really think it's likely that one player would risk that much to remove suspicion from another. I actually agree with all of this, and find the whole idea spectacularly unlikely myself, but however implausible it does remain a possibility. Would I vote either of them on it? Hell, no. Do I consider the witches semi-confirmed? The only confirmed player is a dead player. But based on my experience, yeah, I think they're likely to be exactly who they say they are. Great, I agree. So why did you feel it necessary to bring it up? MHaye, similar applies to you -- you're happy enough to put forth the possibility without really thinking through the situation: this is not one player, this is *two*. That both greatly reduces the odds of them being mafia (Undead is all but ruled out entirely, for instance) and increases the chance of them being immediately counterclaimed. Two for one, even if the claimant ultimately dies as a result.

I will be shocked if Idle turns out to be anything other than a Scotsman. Honestly, he's been all over the map he could be anything at this point. If he is a scotsman then I doubly disagree with his revealing The List when he did. I assumed that he would have to reveal before the events of Night One resolve to be assured that he could convey the information before he died. If he is a scotsman, then he messed up a very good opportunity. It isn't important that the info become public. What is important is that TOWN has the information. As a scotsman he could possess the info and be secure that it would be there for Town TOMORROW.

Good thing I'm not a Scotsman then! I'm telling you, I'm Cabal.

Oh, nevermind, it's the end of Day anyway so I don't need to try anymore.
