Newbie 2054 Dead/Spectacte Thread

[Kazyan]

Yeah, I'm learning hot gambits too. If I'm as good at pretending to be stupid as I am at actually being stupid, then my first scum game might be kinda decent. Maybe.

[2ndchosen1]

I can tell I already have a hard time pushing emotive stuff. I'm either a robotic null or apparently scummy for skipping pages

[Kazyan]

IVD, nooooo, you're supposed to do your claim in an anime transformation sequence! Smh my head! Cringe! This is not poggers!

(/s)

[Kazyan]

I'm glad only the dead thread can see this. 45 minutes later, I realize the above post is awful.

[2ndchosen1]

you'll be able to redact it later too

[Kazyan]

Hmmmm. Canty is in a really tight spot, but Harumi just made an opening.

If I were backed into such a scum corner (I opened the spoilers), I'd say something like this:

Harumi, can you elaborate on that? I liked Krazy's elimination plan, but something about it has been bugging me--do you see it in a different light?

Then we wait for Harumi to explain, followed by:

Right, so it's not just me who sees it.

If Krazy is scum, then her plan to put Harumi, Marci, and me on the chopping block is a guaranteed win, spending her giant pile of towncred from turbo-bussing 2ndchosen1 and her complete pocketing of Alisae to do so. I predict that it goes something like this:

Day 2: Eliminate Harumi or Cantrip.
Night 2: Eliminate IVD, the cop.
Day 3: Pivot to Marci, using her hesitance from today as a rationale, and get her eliminated.
Night 3: Eliminate Meuh.
Day 4: With pocketed Alisae, eliminate the remainder of Harumi or Cantrip. Win.

We're pretty close to the deadline, and I feel that the above is exactly what's going on. VOTE: Krazy

...And then if Krazy tries to switch gears, use that as "proof" that she has to abandon the plan due to lacking towncred.

[2ndchosen1]

so what would you do if the town goes for it and lynches krazy?

[2ndchosen1]

But I do see saying that I was bussed as a good option

[2ndchosen1]

the big problem is having people like Alisae accurately deducting that I was expecting having more time to fall into my VT claim

[Kazyan]

I'd wait to see how the town reacts after the nightkill (of IVD), since reactions to Marci and Harumi would become important. I could see Harumi going full-tilt on trying to kill me after that, or the debate changing to Marci's waffling Day 2 opinions. I might be able to get away with pushing "Marci was being so uncertain because she knew both of us were town".

I have no idea if any of this would work--I haven't had any scumgames, after all--but it's what I would try.

[2ndchosen1]

I could see it working, I'd rate it 65%+ your favor

[Kazyan]

I can't tell if 873 is trying-too-hard-to-be-town or if Cantrip just wants to end a game he feels is hopeless.

[2ndchosen1]

no clue but thats the problem, a lot of it feels very mercurial at times "I guess we'll vote him" *happens to be right*

[2ndchosen1]

no clue what I'm even supposed to get

[2ndchosen1]

marci is a mood

[2ndchosen1]

thoughts on my attempted breadcrumb maneuver though?

[Kazyan]

I'm not exactly sure what the intent of the breadcrumb maneuver was. Do you point out the breadcrumb later, or let someone pick up on it?

[2ndchosen1]

the idea was to take it to the next day or if necessary(i was legit expecting a bit more time) point back at it to prevent the D1

[2ndchosen1]

I had also initially also done a mason claim earlier but abandoned the idea on the need of having to rope partner

[Kazyan]

I think it would have given you some credibility if you pulled it off, but not the amount that you needed. I figure that doing it at E-1 and then springing it during the same day wouldn't really fly. Refusal to claim seems like a huge deal.

[2ndchosen1]

her play this phase seems more townie than scummy i think
cantrip just seems like scum here :/

[2ndchosen1]

man I'm convinced

[Kazyan]

Yeah, I'm wondering how to say this in a nice way, but, like. I don't think Ali's posts set a good example for the newbs.

[Kazyan]

I mean, there really has to be more to an experienced analysis than just saying "red is sus".

[Kazyan]

Oh, well, that's a wrap.

Krazy is a scary-good townie.
