I don't have a HUGE case against CBlake. but there are a few things that I can't reconcile. Two things especially - we had discussed all the different scenarios that could result in everywhere being a townie even though CBlake (our cop) investigated and incriminated him. Those scenarios had 3 possibilties where CBlake would think he would be telling the truth, and 4 where he would be lying. Yet, once the death scene was posted, he acted shocked and surprised, posting protests in the night time, as if there was NO WAY everywhere could have been a townie, even though as I said, we had discussed multiple ways he could.
The second thing was how he voted for himself - I saw this as an act of desperation, so I posted that, to which he immediately followed up saying "exactly" which made it sound to me that this might have been a technique to defray suspicion to start with..
The third thing was when he reported that MB told him he was "lying" to him! I guess he meant by this he was an insane cop - but it's a strange way to report what the mod told him. MB would never have told him "yeah, I am lying to you!"
Now, all of the above is highly circumstantial, but convincing to me. However, here is where I struggle:
1. I think it is waaay to ballsy from him to come out and lie about his role - and not fear the real cop coming forward. We (Fircoal actually) had a theory that maybe the guy you replaced was the cop, and that somehow CBlake used his absence to claim safely (perhaps he is a mafia cop). Now, while rather unlikely (too sophisticated for him in my opinion) it is at least possible - that is, until you stepped in to replace the guy. This is why I was asking you earlier you were the cop. Which you clearly are not.
2. If CBlake is not the cop, or even if he is an insane cop, then where the hell is our cop? Because if MB has a 17 player game with no cop, then we should all be voting Mfreakin'B!
So that's my dilemma right now!
ON A RELATED NOTE - maybe one of the best things we have right now, is having a fresh pair of eyes (you) in the game. I think we are losing sight of the forest by focusing on trees here. If you have the time to go back and read the thread from an outsider perspective, maybe you can bring some clarity..
