Newbie 1943: Crosswords (Game Over)

[WhemeStar]

what's your feeling on WhemeStar then?

This catch-up is NAI.
They just don't have enough content to read.

I’m pretty easy to read once you play with me enough

[WhemeStar]

Idk spangled just read Cyans iso dude is so neutral on everything and hasn’t placed one vote all game

Just screams scum too me

[WhemeStar]

If im wrong about cyan then I’d prob say Cyrus is scum

[TemporalLich]

OMGUS ain't always good TL.

I'm not OMGUSing Wheme, Wheme literally said "I don’t make cases sry bud"

Cases are boring and scummy

no they aren't, they give town a reason to follow your reads, and can be useful to catch scum

alright I think I can agree with this case. Yeah, no vote is scummy AF.

VOTE: Cyan Talon

Sera is still a worthy lynch

[Spangled]

TL I don't think Wheme's refusal to effort is scummy, but it is somewhat antitown.
But scum don't generally tend to not effort, I think; it would draw too much attention to do it outright and talk about it. So they do it without talking about it. Wheme is talking about it. Sure, that doesn't make him any smarter, but it does make him a little more towny.

I think I can agree, yeah trying to openwolf now would be suicide

I did like Cyan's genuineness when he was confronted about this earlier; see 269.

Aye, I think it would.
I do have a question though - how do scum normally go about openwolfing? How do they survive that; do they ever?
And why would scum do that?

[TemporalLich]

openwolfing is when you act transparently scummy (i.e. it is obvious you are being scummy).

I see WIFOM as a major reason to do it, but I don't think it seems safe. Then again I'm just TemporalLich and not a scumhunting god.

[Cyan Talon]

Of course, scum can fake annoyance, or be annoyed on principle because it's just silly to self-vote, especially for absolutely no reason.

this sounds like a bad statement why would scum care about town self voteing . wouldnt scum only get mad if it was thire partner doing it?

Spangled is saying scum can

fake

being mad... I'm not sure how you missed that.

[Cyan Talon]

And sorry about not responding for a while. Life stuff. Anyways...

I can't really refute the argument that I haven't voted this entire game because, duh, I haven't. I'm not keen on voting in general, unless something big catches my eye, and so far nothing explicitly scummy has come to my mind yet. I'm just not the kind of guy to vote on slight leans or things I deem as minor.

Let me reread a bit, I'll see what comes to mind.

This I slightly agree with; some people will try to push a lynch without providing any reason while being aware of the fact. I've seen this as either an indication of bad town, PR with information, or scum (which is the most common in my experience, but then again, I play in a chatroom). But in general, scum wouldn't try to draw too much attention to themselves.

But I'd like to know what other reason you have to vote me aside from me not voting anyone.

you are my scummiest read + poe

[osuka]

Town

: cyrus62

Townlean

: Cyan Talon, Adorable, Robbnva

Meh

: Spangled

Scumlean

: RedFlavor

Scum

: Sera Masumi

this readslist is ass-backwards.

to be very clear, lich is not conftown in my mind. The absence of a counter claim does not mean a claim is valid (

especially

for a softclaim). i'm willing to trust this slot d1 to some extent, but I don't discard the possibility of scum here

Disagreeing with one read is one thing, flat-out contesting the whole read list is another. I'd like an explanation on every slot on here, please.

I’m excluding my slot from this list for obvious reasons
you’re fairly towny, so you’re just about the only read I agree with on there
spangled is a bit townier than null, but not by much
Sera is obvtown
haven’t got a read on red
haven’t got a read on adorable
Cyrus scum

As an addendum, you’re asking questions that are too pedantic and at times reachy, so you’ll inevitably get meme replies in normals (I’m particularly guilty of that). You get town points for asking good questions in a scumhunting sense, but sometimes you need some finesse - mafia is a game where a lot of things happen implicitly and go unsaid. Not game related, it’s just so you know

So you reckon I'm a bit townier than null, but also that

206 is the first obviously town post this game

How do those work together?

@osuka

how do they not? having a towny post does not a townie make

[osuka]

My compromise lynches are RedFlavor and Spangled, still voting Sera right now

why do you think sera is scum? I don't think spangled is a good lynch and I would be willing to compromise on redflavor, though I would rather not lynch this slot because of the lack of content. I just don't have a good read here

Aye, Red's not a good lynch because of the almost-complete lack of associatives or practically anything it will bring if they flip town.

lack of associatives is a bad reason to not lynch a slot

[osuka]

Good thing Lich is the PR because if he wasn’t I’d want him lynched

agreed 100% and i'm still not convinced he actually really is the pr just because of how scummy that slot is

lol what the fuck
are you actively trying to look scummy, lich? this is quickly reaching levels beyond human comprehension

you've dug a hold so deep that i'm actually really considering voteparking you

[TemporalLich]

Osuka why would I be openwolfing?

[TemporalLich]

Especially when I don't even need to red check openwolves to know they're scum
