Any actions on the person I’m hiding behind happen to me. Also if I hid behind scum I dieIs that how that works? I'd figure a hide just lasts the night?

I didn’t crumb because of the game mechanics. Think about how the puppets work
Oh lol actually you have a very good point here. That’s fairJeff is already going to push the same line but what was your expectation here. You were looking for scum but you had no way for us to figure out who the bad guy was if you actually found them?
Ummm… totally do have a way to tell us who I hid behindJeff is already going to push the same line but what was your expectation here. You were looking for scum but you had no way for us to figure out who the bad guy was if you actually found them?
Did you just out your alt or whatI didn’t crumb because of the game mechanics. Think about how the puppets work
I think I see what you're implying, but isn't that a risk that scum don't kill your alt and then people go looking at your PIK which is not your target with no way of knowing you deviated from the plan?I didn’t crumb because of the game mechanics. Think about how the puppets work
You get it!Oh lol actually you have a very good point here. That’s fair
Guessing the point here is you'd use your second account to help town understand.I didn’t crumb because of the game mechanics. Think about how the puppets work
Risks have to be taken.I think I see what you're implying, but isn't that a risk that scum don't kill your alt and then people go looking at your PIK which is not your target with no way of knowing you deviated from the plan?
That was actually stupid on my part, I’ll hold that LYou get it!
And that's why I found weird that Kermit said you gave it to Oscar, so sure of himself.I won't reveal who I gave the Vest to, that helps nobody
I'd just be very careful. If you get to a point where you need to take this risk, I'd hit up the gamerunner. We don't want to lose a player to modkill. That'd really put a damper on things.Risks have to be taken.
Ok, nice to throw that and not say why.Alarm bells ringing in my head with lamb chop.

Because Oscar said she has another puppet? LolThis has to be against the rules
Because it was heavily implied who it was.Because Oscar said she has another puppet? Lol
I’ve already seen people in this game skirting closer to the rules than this.
Please quote the post where Kermit asked Howdy who got the vest.Anyway, Kermit tried to get Howdy to claim who got the best, either because he already knows who got it (somehow) or because they want that info for their teammates. Town doesn't benefit from that question and neutral doesn't care about a power that is useless against poison.
Put one more mark in Kermit being scum.
I don’t see that she implied it at all.Because it was heavily implied who it was.
I didn't catch that so it can be that obvious. It's a fine line to walk but I don't think it has been crossed.Because it was heavily implied who it was.
I have done it twice already, but sure I'll do it again.Please quote the post where Kermit asked Howdy who got the vest.

I feel like a dummy because I didn't catch either. And I'm too lazy to try and piece it together right now.I didn't catch that so it can be that obvious. It's a fine line to walk but I don't think it has been crossed.
It was not even a question, it was an statement.why did you give the vest to Oscar?
no arguments here if Kermit dies. I would rather go lamb or triumph still.Anyway, Kermit tried to get Howdy to claim who got the best, either because he already knows who got it (somehow) or because they want that info for their teammates.

……Actually, you’re going to love thisIt was not even a question, it was a statement.
If we lose another player in the middle of the day tomorrow Kermit can be kermitted. If you're for lamb or triumph though, why not come on over here. I've got plenty of space at the table.no arguments here if Kermit dies. I would rather go lamb or triumph still.
No no no no no. My brain can't take any more shenanigans. lol……Actually, you’re going to love this
@Kermit the Frog did you try to poison Oscar last night and your shot was refunded? Did you then think this meant she had a protection when in actuality she was just untargetable because she was hiding?

I poisoned N1, Howdy is dying afaik, shot was not refunded. But you know what this is an insane game, Bert, Oscar, Kutaro, Grogu want me out, I'm sorry I caught scum y'all, won't happen again I promise.

I mean Piggy might've gotten away with the claim had it not been me to solidify the vote.What do you mean you caught scum?
Bert what are you talking about? Like what am I listening for real. Get me out man, vote me, every single one of you vote me and let me toy with my other account.If you caught scum you should be happy since the flip is going to save you, no?
OK, let's assume you are town. Why did you say to Howdy that they gave the vest to Oscar?Bert what are you talking about? Like what am I listening for real. Get me out man, vote me, every single one of you vote me and let me toy with my other account.
Because I assumed that's where it went, and if that's the case I wanna know why, maybe they saw something I didn't, like if it didn't go to Oscar fine I don't mind, but Oscar felt very random.OK, let's assume you are town. Why did you say to Howdy that they gave the vest to Oscar?

Oscar apparently knew Howdie was town, there was a connection there before the hider claim(unless hider claimed early and I missed it), I assumed it was because Oscar could clear Howdie's role, the vest.I'm asking you to show me what exactly made you assume that.
I have crumbed who I hid behind directly.Oscar apparently knew Howdie was town, there was a connection there before the hider claim(unless hider claimed early and I missed it), I assumed it was because Oscar could clear Howdie's role, the vest.
Sure, Oscar claimed that, but Howdy never did. And Oscar never hinted at the vest.Oscar apparently knew Howdie was town, there was a connection there before the hider claim(unless hider claimed early and I missed it), I assumed it was because Oscar could clear Howdie's role, the vest.
Welcome to Puppet Mafia!
You are Howdy Doody. You are aligned with the Good Puppets (that is, TOWN).
It’s rough out there in the ol’ West. You best be packing protection.
You are a 1-Shot Bulletproof Vest Granter. During the Night Phase, you may use the command Grant: <player> to grant your target a 1-Shot Bulletproof Vest. A Bulletproof Vest protects from the first kill that targets that player. Your target will not be informed that they received a Bulletproof Vest. You cannot target yourself. You cannot target [REDACTED]. This is a one-shot skill.
You have the ability to vote.
You win when all threats to the Good Puppets are eliminated.

Those are the people high in my scum list.
What? You're scum for the same reason you were scum yesterday.Tbh I still am not sure why I'm scum read.
I don’t think that is true. Reading it a few times it is very specifically “the first kill that targets you” Poison isn’t technically a targeted kill because of its delay aspect. The issue is random could have a different ruling than me but I don’t think it’s supposed to.So if I read that right it seems the vest also protects from poison? Or is that a silly assumption?
Why would Kermit kill me, I'm adorable.I don’t think that is true.

This is killing a neutral 100% of the time. Something funky happened with that slip about the vests and I think it’s enough evidence to rule out town now as well. Normally I wouldn’t care but Bert has been obnoxious enough that Kermit 100% kills him next and that means I know he hits town again and that’s not helpful.
YikesWhy would Kermit kill me, I'm adorable.
What are your thoughts on Kutaro? I humored your Triumph post.Looks like Kermit is going to be where we go, which I don't mind, but I'd like to pretend we're not about to go frog gigging and find some more Piggy connections. Ponder Ponder Ponder.
I actually read them first when popping back in here and they have so little content-wise to connect that I'm struggling to find anything. Was there any content that stood out to you, or was it because of timing with posts compared to when Piggy was posting?What are your thoughts on Kutaro? I humored your Triumph post.
Let's hear em!Funny mine is similar with just a couple changes
I can't pretend much content sticks out to me. I have the feeling that Piggy's player just isn't a heavy poster. It's all about the timing to me. Kutaro tosses the vote in at the point where Piggy would know it's definitely over. And honestly, in general, Kutaro has been a sheep the whole game so even not trying to find the Piggy connection, he's just playing direct from the scum playbook.I actually read them first when popping back in here and they have so little content-wise to connect that I'm struggling to find anything. Was there any content that stood out to you, or was it because of timing with posts compared to when Piggy was posting?
So now I've gone back and I'm on page 5 going through reactions to Piggy's claim and once again scratching my head going, "what the fuck was this all about?" Let me search Kutaro's posts again since you're here and take another quick look.
Look at early Kutaro---they weren't afraid to push back and rock the boat a bit. But yeah---then they vanish, and when they come back they sheep D2. But with what was going on, I don't know if I blame that much. (I need to read today and see how they look)I can't pretend much content sticks out to me.

Yeah, I kinda love stuff like this. Could've quoted Elmo and said, "Yeah, good point" or something, but in the limited amount of time Kutaro is here (they've said they're busy), they call Elmo out. Continue to say they find Pinochio sus. They did nod long with Howdy being poisoned saying they didn't like D1.....Not sure which opinion is the "Rock the Boat" one here since people seemed mixed on their opinion. I dunno. I guess all I'm getting at is that Kutaro has brief moments of throwing out his elbows. Not very hard, but...it's there. I could attribute much to someone who is busy, which is leading to not posting a lot. If they were Piggy, you'd think we'd see their post count pick up today.This is a lot of words to say loud players good and quiet players bad.
Ok? This is not the gotcha you think it is, I just read the situation wrong.Sure, Oscar claimed that, but Howdy never did. And Oscar never hinted at the vest.
So you wanted a role claim and also wanted to know why the vest was given to Oscar. And nothing in this thread hints at Oscar receiving anything.
So, again, the connection oscar->Howdie was there, but the connection howdy->Oscar is something you came up with out of nowhere if you only had access to the information in this thread.
This is actually an insane vote, you've been with me the whole day phase, and now you vote for me.I don’t think that is true. Reading it a few times it is very specifically “the first kill that targets you” Poison isn’t technically a targeted kill because of its delay aspect.

Ok sorry everyone, will step away, this might be the final post of the day from me, I leave my fate to you town, I've said what I wanted to say.Sam Eagle here with a PSA: Mafia can be a stressful game, but keep in mind that everyone is trying to do their best. Remember these are players you know behind the accounts and if you find yourself heated it can good, nay, patriotic even, to take a step back and take a break.
Of those three and myself who do you see as scum? I know I'm not scum and I like Abby.Based on D1 votes there is Scum among Mr. Mew, Abby Cadabby and Fozzie Bear. No way is Scum just chilling off wagon or not voting at all while one of their own is in contention.
Mr. Mew is still my top pick among those names. He defended the Dynamite votes D1 when we now know there was Scum:Miss Piggy on it and also stayed quite while the whole claim debacle happened. Looks to me he was observing which way the wind would go before getting involved.
While I don't really agree with Fozzies play style, I'm not ready to put them in the Scum pile just yet.
Abby was pushing Mew last day phase, so I don't see them being partnered.
I didn't like Kutaro voting me as a prod vote, and only later declaring me as sus to justify it. There was also some soft defending of Miss Piggy D2. Probably number 2 after Mr. Mew for me.
I've seen at least one other person mention the timing of Kutaru's vote on Piggy. Can you elaborate what it is about their timing that alarms you?Seems like a lot has happened today. I'll comment on that once I've properly caught up.
From D2, Kutaru is on my potential Scum list, based on their timing with their votes on Miss Piggy. They were also previously pushing me as a wagon and ended D1 off wagon as well.
I think all normal logic around a question like this has to be thrown away when scum have two accounts. Scum is willing to bus and lose teammates when there's only one life on the table. Throw two into the mix and we're in brand new territory.I don't really buy the Kutaru is Miss Piggy angle. Why wouldn't he vote to save Piggy on D1 then?
But now I'm in an awkward position of not wanting to stoke a fire so I dunno. Just gonna step away for a bit and be back later.Truth of the matter is this account is useless to me now, flip me if you need to.
Ok, that makes sense.Any actions on the person I’m hiding behind happen to me. Also if I hid behind scum I die
