In post 85, Genghis Khan wrote:SCUMSLIP

votato is in the mindset for getting a mislynch today, which is why he thinks scum will know all the pairs tomorrow. If he's town, he would consider what happens the other 50% of the time when scum is lynched - which he should be aiming for.

VOTE: votato
You need to explain how post 50 happened.

I'm aware of a occasionally glitch that randomly quotes a post, but it quotes it entirely. You either wrote the quote manually and decided to put my name and post number of my post (7) for whatever reason, or quoted my post delated the contents and posted just the scum slip in it.

Neither of those make sense.

Yeah, but it does depend on the answer to that question.

Also since one lover pair already claimed everyone should so we can have as much info as scum to even the playing field.

Yeah I'm fine now with a mass claim since the partically claim stunts what I wanted to do.

Drew was pushing on my scum read, and also pushing the game forwards in general.

Catch up post:
In post 9, SleeperSoul wrote:Hey guys, it's my second game! First game is still ongoing in day 1.

My goal this game is to try not to do anything too stupid on day 1. :D
Weird entrance to immediately downplay yourself but I don't see newbscum saying this as much as I see it coming from newbtown.

In post 23, bugspray wrote:oh so are we voting on players and not pairs so if like it's foo and bar and the indicivudal votes on each of them add up to a lynch its fine?
i think i get it now
This comes across as genuine although I'm not sure if this could be AI.

In post 27, SleeperSoul wrote:I think https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... 5#p5474325 makes a pretty good argument for mass claiming lovers day 1.
Another good point towards town sleeper. I see this being much more town oriented than scum oriented and he's the first to suggest it.

In post 28, HoldenGolden wrote:Here's how I see it:

I agree we should eventually mass claim all lover pairs for the reasons outlined there (although i disagree that mafia doesnt gain as much). However, I do find some addtional value in seeing what arises before the claim in terms of reads and how they hold up after the reveal if info.

I cant go that much in depth, since If we end up doing it I rather not telegraph mafia any clue how to react, but for example: Player A scum reads both player B and C. B and C turns out to be a lover pair. How will A respond?

I will admit I just realized a potential flaw which is that we only have four day long day phases, so this may be to chaotic to try and pull off, analyze, and make a lynch in that short timeframe. Nonetheless, I think it's something that should be considered.
This is good and town oriented thinking. It's very clear what the thought process is.

In post 32, SleeperSoul wrote:@HoldenGolden Whatever we do, we should only claim if everyone claims. Your theorycrafting is already giving me headaches. I think massclaim right away will make everything simpler for everyone, giving a net benefit to town since we outnumber mafia.
This is making me squint a bit at sleeper because Holden made a really good point and it was very a very town-oriented plan outside of the chaos of a short day phase.

In post 46, votato wrote:hmm in general im not a fan of it. at least not on day 1. the only thing we gain from claiming is associations, and we dont want to be speculating based on associations pre-flip. so day 2 we can do it if we want, but today nono. day 1 scum are somewhat in the dark, but day 2 scum know who all the pairs are so at that point you lose nothing by claiming.

i feel like people always put too much effort into gimmicking a given setup and too little time scumhunting.
Am I missing something? How does scum know all the pairs D2 without us claiming?

Yeah votato said it. Why did you change the person Gengish?
Good catch and really strange.

In post 69, SleeperSoul wrote:Well my only read so far is very slightly scummy on votato for not wanting to claim, so I'm not entirely opposed.
This is both good and bad... Good that he's willing to sacrifice himself to lynch his lover if scum and that comes from town. But also if sleeper is town and only has a tiny scumlean on votato for not wanting to claim then he shouldn't be so quick to pull the trigger on himself.

Genghis is giving me scummy vibes. I mean he says this is a scumslip before it's even explained fully but hasn't explained why he changed the posts around earlier which could just as easily be argued to be a scumslip.

ok my early solve is {genghis, drew}. sleeper is 100% town, and so far both tux and holden are weak townreads.

Agreed to both. That's why I wanted to know if Kahn and Drew were lovers. Now know they aren't their coordination on you seems scummy. The push is weak, and they both made the same weird mistake about Holden. Not sure about Sleeper being so towny though. I like Ray.

I do buy that votato could read me like this. But I'm scratching my head at the solve.

I should probably get some rest though, I've been up all night and it's almost noon.

see? up all night together. the solve comes from genghis making the weird misquote thing and coordinating with drew. im pretty sure my iso lays that out already. it certainly lays out all my thoughts on drew.
