I estimate myself to be a pretty garbage tier player, but if there's one thing I'm confident about, it's my ability to read players like Cyrus fairly well. Take it or leave it ;)
Wow you're so good at avoiding death and killing slots that are not part of the informed minority. Wow how are you so good at playing this game.

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Setup InformationAll scum parties are default-multitasking.
There are two scum parties.
The verbiage suggests there are multiple(2) anti-town factions consisting of more than one member. Could you confirm this is the case? If not, is it then a possibility that one "scum party" consists of a single member, i.e., what we'd think of as a traditional third party?

Can I take it to mean that "multitasking" means scum members can use both factional and active abilities at the same time? Otherwise, what does this mean?
Question 1: It is a possibility. Scum 'parties' indicate a multi-player party. You can't just go party with yourself, right? :P
Question 2: Yes. It means that scum party members can use their own abilities and the factional kill at the same time.
To clarify: 2 multi-player scum parties exist, but it is unknown whether a third-party exists.
It was stated that it would be multiball in signups. :P

1. I felt strange reading Elsa idealize Titus.

2. Titus praising Kitty for ignoring mechanics reminded me that I don't actually know what "default scum multitasking" means.

3. Yay Dan didn't know either I feel less old.

4. HumanEatingMonkey looks scummy in 109. Not sure what to make of 5 posts following it. The post hoping Dan is Town made me chuckle.

5. Cyrus finds HEM scummy, contextualizes it as meta.

6. Surprised Dan is confrontational of Cyrus when Cyrus does that. I think this is either ineffective on Dan's part (because I'd expect it would make Cyrus less overtly engage with the game) or scummy. Leaning DanScum.

7. Then Cyrus's response makes me think I overidentified with him because of the overlap in our perspectives above. I had seen him as trying to engage with the game in his original post.

8. Titus is town.

9. My vote for Gamma on page 4 wasn't RVS. I don't think it's unimagineable for someone to notice something by page 6. (Re: Cyrus voting for a "reason" and whether that is plausible re: Titus.)

10. @ActionDan, Elsa can be quite grandiose even as town.

11. HEM is scummy sheeping ActionDan rhetorically. Switching my vote at this point.

UNVOTE: GammaEmerald

12. @Gamma, honestly as I write right now I can't remember why, but it was related to something you did in the first few pages, very weak. But for some reason I'm thinking you had a different avatar at the time...? (I get that it's not an earnest question but.)

13. Gamma is town.

14. Dan is having the same experience talking to Elsa as I did in my last game with them.

15. Titus knows Elsa (@188). I don't like their agreeing with ActionDan about Elsa. This looks like Titus is ignoring their knowledge of Elsa in order to mirror Dan.

16. A50 similarly being aggressive with Elsa doesn't make sense to me but now there's two people who know Elsa behaving strangely so maybe I'm the one who needs tuning~.

17. Don't understand Titus being aggressive with Cyrus @202

18. Titus' 209-210 seem authentic

19. Dunnstall asking NDMath about ActionDan is scummy (220)

20. Nero Cain's 270 calling Cyrus a hypocrite is weird. It's a really concretely rational way of responding to Cyrus, who is engaging with the thread playfully.

21. I'm confess I skipped A50's catchup 300+. I skipped to the end to geta TL;DR. I was surprised there was not one. This is fairly dissonant, suggestive of active lurking (because there's a barrier to engaging with him, but he's behaving as if he wants to be active and engage)

22. I think Dan's town.

23. HEM scummy in @381.

24. First official VC -- Dan, come vote HEM with me.

25. GE voting from HEM->A50 is fine.

26. Lucifer ilu hope you post more about whatever that's about tho (re: HEM vote).

27. HEM's 459-461 made me smile.

28. HEM's mass posting on page 19-20 doesn't make sense to me -- saying Elsa is town, but he's vaguely suspicious of people on Elsa's wagon, etc.

SUMMARY


A. I don't understand the Elsa wagon from people who know Elsa. (I can definitely understand Dan voting Elsa, but think this is due to Dan not knowing them.) I don't know what experience other players have with Elsa but think most know them.

B. I think Titus, Dan, Gamma are town. Cyrus and Elsa are probably town. Caveats: I've never played with Cyrus before (cf., lots of players allude to previous history with Cyrus as relevant for understanding Cyrus, and I'm missing all of that). I was also reminded of Elsa's early idealization of Titus when I previewed my post, so maybe I'm over-valuing what seems like opportunistic Elsa-voting.

C. I think HEM is scum. Their content is focused heavily on asking player X to reflect on player Y, rather than engaging with what players have already done in the game. Further, I have not noticed HEM make significant use of what comes from their pattern of inquiry. So, I think their behavior is motivated by wanting to appear interested in the game, without being interested in the game.
