Like I think the way this should go is RC should say who he wants to pair with, that lady should offer and that should get locked up.

Then we can start by making a couple of T+T by our guesses pairings. And then pair best with worst on each side.

I still don't understand why you think this, and you haven't responded to what I said about it earlier.

Bro I want to win this game more than I want to pick a dance pair I'm happy with, particularly given that as conftown clearing my dance pair is easier than anyone elses
I was under the impression that this game is town-sided considering vi haven't seen a scum win yet.

Not that I'm implying we shouldn't play to win, but you seem to be under undue stress.

Also, as conftown don't you think you're the obvious intermission target? Do you really want to give scum two unlynchable kills in one shot?
Does this post forward a scum win con, or do you just think I'm strange?

Avoids the scum+scum pairing which I think is the worst attack vector.

I think the process of my giving reads out will unduly affect the way that the scum team plays the game in ways that will prove beneficial to them. Obviously this needs to be counterbalanced with keeping game momentum up so I think I'll wait like until Monday evening and then start giving reads then we can collectively start making pairings when we're ready after then?

@short historically scum have won a lot because they end up making pairings that are good for them

This doesn't affect your mindset of "if Kokichi is scum I can just suicide"?

scum+town doesn't have a recourse for the auto leave effect, with scorched earth.

Scum+scum is the danger.

No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.

Scum-scum won’t leave but means they lose 2 instead of 1 if Lynched
Last run Maria and Dunn screwed up by pairing with each other, though they did pocket me through that course of action

Oh dear god I'm here but it will take me a while to get through 18 pages.

Since people are basing reads off player experience, I'll start off by saying that I have played a few games of forum mafia around 4 years ago so I'm not a complete newbie, but don't be surprised if I suck at understanding game terms and stuff,

It can help if you don't focus on all 18 pages at once but just focus on one post and one page at a time. Just give reactions to posts as they strike you.

We didn't screw up imo. We were outright gonna win the game Katsuki just messed up by not hammering in time. That was even said in the dead thread. Scum/scum is very dangerous if played right
