Once again, we fucked up another day with EoD bullshit. Leone is a fucking shitstain.
There's not a whole lot to analyze wagon-wise...but I'll do so anyway.
Before Leone's claim (#1077):
Brian (4):
TvK, Orange, Timur, John
Orange (3): Zoran, Third, Brian
TvK (1): Leone
Zoran (1): Sportsguy
no vote (1): Lewis
I think we were very clearly heading for a Brian lynch.
Leone's bullshit set fire to that wagon, and pretty much everyone switched over to TvK, resulting in the following final votes:
TvK (5): Leone, John, Zoran, Brian, Timur
Leone (1):
TvKZoran (1): Sportsguy
Brian (1): Orange
no vote (2): Lewis, Third (Third was on TvK, unvoted to avoid early hammer)
Obviously the major movement was people voting for TvK: myself, Zoran, Brian, Timur, and Third all believed Leone's claim.
We also now have roleclaims (fake or real) and a known power (Yoshistar) to work with.
Starting with the verified true claim from TvK: Sportsguy and me *are not* m/m. He was very specific with his wording - it doesn't say he gets 1 scum and 1 town, it says he gets 1 *guaranteed* townie in the set of two. Unfortunately, this information doesn't help me a damn bit, since I already knew there was *at least* 1 townie out of those 2, but for those of you who are NOT me, it's useful. I still think Sportsguy is scum, and TvK's reveal doesn't factor into that read at all.
Leone's claim:
Now that it's clear he was bullshitting, can we even figure out WHY?! There is certainly the obvious solution - he is scum and framing town!Brian by making it appear as if he is saving him? Is this worth sacrificing Leone himself though? He was a townread for nearly everyone, it seems unnecessary to do this. This actually makes me wonder further (and I feel like I'm wandering into confirmation bias territory at this point): is this a play a jester-type character would make, knowing that it makes him a major target for the next day?
Brian's claim:
If he had a resurrecting power, why wasn't it used N1? There was a dead player already (PAF). Maybe there was some sort of restriction? Either way, bringing back Dan clears Brian, in my eyes...I'm not sure how we can argue against this?
The only solace I can find in what happened EoD2 is that TvK thought he was going to die anyway...RIP
