Wait. Could Winston be the SK? That would explain HK's tinfoiling because of my proposed PoE.

I'm not following your line of thought here. Could you unpack it?

You're sitting at a 50% chance of being properly scanned as Town, and HK has gone from "Laurentus and Vro are Town" to "let's tinfoil Lau" a bit, which could easily be explained by simply being the SK and realising he's been boxed in, and trying to stir some shit in an attempt to escape said box, but it can also be explained by being actual Town and suddenly distrusting the guy pushing the PoE, in this case me.

To further elaborate, Winston, the reason my PoE would be wrong is if I've let the SK or a Wolf slip into my don't-chops. And I'm thinking that would most likely be you.

[Laurentus]

Well, @hollowkatt, if you're not scum or the SK, then where has my PoE gone wrong?

What is your POE right now? You've mentioned pretty much everyone that isn't you, csargo, and vro as possible bad guys. So dolby, winston, myself, borg right?

I'd say a poe of winston, dolby, borg isn't bad at all. That's functionally the poe I started the day with. Your posts thus far are making me question you, and if I question you likely I swap you and winston and see how that feels.

[Winston Hughes]

hk and borg feel like scum trying to catch up with a situation that's going south for them

and it's a valiant effort

just not very believable

Of course.

And, although from a winning-the-game perspective, it would be better if that investigation had fully cleared me, from a me-enjoying-myself perspective this is very much preferable.

I mean, from my perspective, it can only be the former.

But, okay, I understand your thought process now.

And, to be clear, I am never pushing the Paranoia line today as an actual thing. If somehow you really are scum here, you totally deserve this win.

Wait, so you now think that HK is the SK? What happened to your read of Dolby as SK?

I meant between the choices you presented.

[Winston Hughes]

And, to be clear, I'm not reading Dolby as the sk.

I'm just working from that hypothesis currently.

[Winston Hughes]

To unpack that a bit...

Dolby and Borg are the obvious pairing. They've been buddying hard for all to see.

HK and Dolby are antagonists. They've been slapping each other about.

HK and Borg have not been anything notable that I can recall, and so appear less likely to be buddies than D/B and more likely than H/D, based solely on surface appearances.

But isn't that exactly where the real buddies are more likely to end up in this situation, neither wanting to make the connection too obvious nor pushing each other too hard towards the firing line?

This is why my hypothesis has Dolby as the sk, at least until I've gotten into the reading.

[Winston Hughes]

Does that make sense?
