So now that we know Marashu was scum, who are his partners?

  • Assuming there's a mechanical solve as to why Doctor Drew is scum, I'd rather flip Nash now and flip Drew in the event BM is NK'd. I see no reason to sway my intent.
My best guess would be TM/votato ignoring the possible mechanical solve. You are still in my scumlist.
Why is skipping over PP scummy? Circular reasoning?
I don't see how you're trying to engage or flip your scumreads. Also, I think you're scum, and the only reason you wouldn't jump ship from a scum wagon (Marashu) to the next biggest wagon (Penguin Power) would be if the next biggest wagon was also a scum wagon.
In post 1042, Aristophanes wrote:I will say that there being no mention of Nash, like not a single one, in Mara's Iso until more than 700 posts into the game, and then 43 mentions in the following 200 (I mean, half of that is the broken quote but still) with a sudden scumread is a lot more interesting than I initially gave it credit for. I am going to have to do some wagonomics on it and see if the pivot looks like scum trying to save their ass, scum trying a light bus to pivot attention and break up their wagon while getting rid of associatives, or like scum flailing.
  • "scum trying to save their ass" = Nash town? Nash scum?
  • "scum trying a light bus to pivot attention and break up their wagon while getting rid of associatives" = Nash scum?
  • "scum flailing" = Nash town? Nash scum?
Where you end up isn't going to be contingent upon everyone else's conclusion while you're doing your projects, is it?

  • I don't understand what word321 is saying. Is he saying that he thinks I'm scum because I voted Penguin Power ("PP") at some point?

From my experience with Mara from 1992, he is very good at not pointing out his partner in a conspicuous way when against the ropes; I still think despite that that Nash looks suspicious tho

I think the current impasse rn is that there is no real reason not to push penguin if he was town under the premise that his main motivation was to save Mara from the gallows

His last actions were quite strange tbh, from the way he briefly joined the mara wagon to the transition to out of it

I just saw the case in more detail; both BM and u decided to go back to Mara immediatly after that VC. It wasnt u who voted PP, it was brassherald; there is little sense to go in that way given those facts; since u both also deconstructed PPs "advantage" in the comepting wagons.

Either way, what I said earlier still applies; we have currently 4 potential conftown rn, so picking anyone who is not actually one of those will help the cause, independent of who we actually pick; since the hider will reveal someone else today too, even if they get someone we will still prob have 4 potential conftown and 2 ppl less on a pool of 9 (except if mafia kills the 2nd target of the hider, and the hider with him); that is like a newbie game, but with 4 prs instead of 2

I forgive you Ari, but only just.
Seriously, can I WOTC this and demand no more anime avatars replace in please?

And Froppy, you don't think scum would prefer to hammer or at least be late to a wagon on there buddy who was almost guaranteed to be hammered?
Coming into the game I knew that there would be good players much better than me. I'm thinking that joining the wagon late would be too obvious so mafia would never do that. But, by your logic that means that everyone who joined the mara wagon early is conftown?

Marashu was below BM on the list, and Deimos was below Marashu (and henceforth, BM, on the night); it makes no sense for scum to try to kill someone below them, cause as a Hider they would die either way, and it would be a lost kill, if they were town; we r also safe to assume BM is not the hider, for being below Nash. Ill stop at that, since debating on prs is not usually good.

I'll probably go back and read some more tomorrow, then figure out who to push - BM you down to scumhunt with me again tomorrow? If we catch another one we can officially say the BM scumhunting school formed the best townblock of all time
