Which conversation, and what made HKCaper suspicious?
The one involving Hkcaper after Foggy had released the report and some of us were asking Hkcaper to either claim or say who he visited. I feel like we as a town handled that incredibly poorly. I don't want to call people out for that as I know I was part of it, but I didn't expect Hk to make such a big deal out of not claiming. I didn't personally find HK suspicious for it, but I feel like that situation a townie might read the situation as 'well if he's town why isn't he sharing information, this seems incredibly scummy, so I think he's mafia' and the mafia might read the conversation yesterday and thing 'Well he's hiding something for a reason, he must be an important town power role or have a plan up his sleeve we should kill him off tonight so that he can't follow up on whatever he's planning'. I feel that the situation we put Hkcaper in was going to bring all kinds of unwanted attention to him that wasn't good. I know I was part of the people pushing for him to give out information, and thus am partly responsible, but I was worried about my bus driver scenario, and as it was pretty clear foggy and aerelic weren't lying I was worried about the possibility of Notty flipping town and us coming back to take out either Hk/Arelic/foggy only to find out they were town too, so I didn't want to vote Notty unless my bus driver theory could be addressed (which it was)

Since it's relevant I may as well mention this here as well, and I feel it is necessary to address in case other people are concerned about 'my vote change' as well.
I shared suspicions that I've outlined just now (as well as suspicion on myuser for suddenly changing his mind on Notty but I just re-read his post and I realize I misunderstood his post now so I'm cancelling that point)
If someone has a report saying a certain person is guilty you vote them, right? Pretty much everyone else did, that's normal. The weird thing is that we weren't voting notty, and I'm curious as to why you didn't change your vote to Notty later on, that bit confuses me. If there is a report saying someone is guilty I'm pretty much guaranteed to vote for that player like anyone else will, but I didn't because I felt like my bus driver theory might be a thing, and I was worried that if it was a bus driver it would screw us over a lot. Once I felt confident with HK's answer that there could be no bus driver (he'd have looked suspicious if notty flipped town after that, and thus we'd have some responsibility to account for (unlike Foggy/Aerelic who I felt couldn't reasonably be held responsible in the slightest given the circumstances of Foggy's claim and the fact they had both seen the report). At this point I put in a post saying I'd consider voting for Notty (I really had already decided, but didn't want to change my vote on whim from tapatalk right before work, so I put in my vote later when I got home.)

Infected_alien8_ if you don't mind me asking why did you drill HK so hard with the questioning? I know you wanted to be 100% sure, but I saw you ask him if he was certain and he said yes, then you asked again for 100% certainty (a completely unreasonable standard in these games) and he gave the technically correct and reasonable answer that he could never be certain. I just don't understand why you felt it was okay to keep questioning him on it when he was trying to be reasonable and it sounded like you were trying to ask him for an unreasonable amount of certainty.

Forgive me if I'm misunderstanding, but how does that answer the question of "which conversation made Hk seem suspicious"? After Notty died and turned out to be innocent, why do you think HK was still suspicious, and suspicious enough for TWG to kill him?

Oh I know, like I said in the post you quoted, when I said I was suspicious of your 'vote change' in our night chat I was misunderstanding what you'd said in yourpost, and after reading it again I decided it wasn't suspicious, since you gave your reasons about only being tentative to vote her because of the bus theory, which HK seemed to dismiss.

And I didn't vote Notty because, like I said previously, I wanted to hear from Notme before the end of the day, in case he had some game changing information:
Conclusion; it is probably safest bet to lynch Notty as it's more likely she is mafia and we get information from her death, yes when she dies and her body, up to Heaven or Hell, flies.

I'm still going to wait for Notme's post because who knows, maybe he has some game-changing information, and I'd like to hear what people like JKangaroo and Mulbery and TheWeakGuy48_ think, and I'd like myusername22's updated thoughts, but I think it looks like I'll be voting Notty today if Notme doesn't have anything to say because voting Notty relies on 'facts' brought to the table but not voting Notty relies on just a theory of mine about the setup having a tracker because of fog's role being true, the sky is blue. But of course depending on what others bring up this could change, like the guns used at a shooting range.

Infected_alien8_ if you don't mind me asking why did you drill HK so hard with the questioning?

Because HK claimed that there was '100% no shenanigans possible', and to me this seemed incredibly unlikely (turns out I was correct), and I was concerned he was lying about being a visiting role who could prove Notty to be mafia, hoping we wouldn't force him to claim and would trust him and we'd lynch Notty. I mean it'd be pretty short-sighted of him but I had to be sure, so I pushed to make sure he couldn't then get us to lynch Notty, then claim the next day 'oh by 100% certain I didn't think about possibility X" to save himself. Just in case he was town, I made sure to be careful in my questions and told him several times not to reveal too much and asked for 'very general' answers (as shown below). I kept asking because I had a feeling that he was either 1) a townie and just not thinking about all the possibilities and so being mistaken by saying he was '100% sure notty was mafia', so I wanted to check he was legit 100% sure so and make him consider other possibilities, and 2) I wasn't sure if he was lying, so I kept asking for more. Meanwhile your post here is making me even more suspicious of you.

Can you give a very vague idea of how you can back up your claim, in order to ride horses in Minecraft they need to be tame?
Hmm, well forgive me but I find it unlikely that you have some claim that will make it so there's 100% no shenanigans possible, so could you somehow give a very vague sense (not revealing anything about your role) of how you know there's no shenanigans possible please, I dislike eating large portions of cheese?

Wait

Who was in HK and TWG's night chat last night? What were the groups called? Did any of them claim?
I'm in engineering. With notty dead it was just me, ender, and TWG. We didnt really discuss much of anything: TWG asked my role and I told him I didn't think it was a good time to be claiming yet. I said if he had anything he thought was important to share that he should share it, but he said nothing. Kind of wish we had all claimed now because he might've had information from watching someone :( , but it's just as likely he got nothing.

As I said earlier, me, HKCaper and K1ng was in the Science chat. K1ng wasn’t very active before at the end, but me and HKCaper got to discuss a lot.
We first started with who we thought would die, and we concluded with that it would be most likely that HKCaper would die, because he was right about Notty, Foggy would most likely be saved by doctor and also because it was easy to understand that HKCaper what sort of role HK had. I find it very interesting that there were two deaths, TheWeakGuy and HKCaper, this night. Based on the fact that we know for sure that there existed a vigilante last night it is easy to assume that Weak killed HKCaper and mafias killed Weak. However, I remain sceptical because I cannot understand why Weak wanted to kill HKCaper. There were few suspects and HKCaper was very in the spotlight after last day, but it still would to me seem very risky to suddenly kill another likely PR with that little information, and I am not sure if Weak actually would have done that.

We also discussed town reads and suspects in our conversation. At town reads we were quite agreed with that we town read Weak, Myuser, Foggy, HKCaper and a little bit Arelic. Also worth to mention that HKCaper town read me. We didn’t really have many mafia reads, but both HKCaper, K1ng and slightly me was suspicious of Infected as he was “going hard on me, and questioning what I had to say about Notty” which HKCaper said himself. I was also a little suspicious of Mulbery. We had no reads on the rest.
I am also sure of that HKCaper would have spent his role blocker action on Infected this night and very likely on myuser on the first, and I find it unlikely that there’s another role blocker.

My suspicions today are mainly going towards Infected. Since last day, I have gotten more suspicious of Infected especially when I read through the previous day again. It seems to me like he wants to know way more than what was necessary, and I think it could have caused HKCaper to die.
I am also a little bit suspicious of Mulbery, possibly from his big post where I find him being too sceptical about Foggy, HKCaper and Arelic, but that might be just me.

Anyway, can you please quote and explain what you found unusual with Myuser’s reactions towards Notty, Mulbery?

How would you know Hipman was supposed to be in Science and Notty in Engineering? Only Ltin, K1ng, me and HK was added to our conversation
hipman wasn't assigned to anything in his death message, so I put him in the department that was lacking a person. It's just a guess though, perhaps it might be better to leave him out.
Enlisted 2nd Class Nottykitten was a mutineer assigned to engineering.
Enlisted 1st Class HKCaper was the Mess Manager, and assigned to science.
Enlisted 1st Class TheWeakGuy48_ was the Sentry, and assigned to engineering.
