Just saying, if there is any more than one scum in the 12 most inactive players scum will be against the idea of it. Don't be fooled by that.

MattP, scum are naturally against anything that hurts scum.

It means MattP controls Elli's vote until Elli comes back. Some Mods don't allow it.

Nope. I laid out my cards and if this goes through even if its scum I'm peace out hammertime. 100%

Its kind of invigorating in a way - and thats why I'm commenting on a lot of the mechanics and theory now JIC.

The longer the game goes its going to get worse. And if, from the limited exposure, you can straight faced say that bottom group is town well then you need to get someone new at the brain helm.

If there's a glut of lurking scum after 2065 I would send techno to a dark fiery grave.


Not getting your reasoning there, but anyway.

I already tried a quicklynch push with killing off the T-Bone wagon to try and beat scum to the punch. But it didn't seem to be profitable (at least so far) with Luffy's mislynch. I think pushing quicklynches only helps scum get to night phase quicker and get easy mislynches, and gives us less content (even though there is already fuckloads, I'm talking about VALUABLE content) for later game.

I'm not sure your reasoning on why drawing out the game makes town's chances worse; the only reason I can see was my reasoning about mafia beating us to the lynches, but at this point I can't tell which wagons are scumdriven, which are not, and which might be scumdriven bussers. It's all a sea of dodgy logic from most players at this point; deals, accusations with little reasoning, hastiness to lynch whoever, 'this guy is town fuck you', 'he is so scum hurry up and lynch already' comments from nearly everyone; not much scumhunting going on at all. That sort of activity reads to me as scum, and if I was to go by those reads, I am getting scum reads on 95% of the players.

Basically put, I feel helpless at this stage - no one seems worth defending, and no one stands out enough to seem worth lynching. I still need to do a shitload of reading.


If you are getting scum reads on 95% of the players and you are town you are being lazy. Period.
However, the jury is still out on that and I get twitchy every post.

But nearly everyone is doing it, so I have the same reads on everyone.

I'm not lazy. I'm rereading the thread to see if anything other than these reads stands out to me, but you don't seem to want to do that, just lynch first and ask questions later. Whose the one being lazy?

my enthusiasm for this game has dulled because the thrill of rapidfire shitposting has vanished and the fact that I'm getting a hell of a lot of VT tells and get the feeling we're searching for a needle in a haystack here. I haven't been reading, admittedly, and both kondi and chevre looked like really bad lynches to me (and shameful that kondi got harassed out of the game)

Hell I'll sign on for the plan of killing non contributers even if it means killing me at some point

I'll go along with the lurker PL idea cause I think one or two of those above me in the list could be scum.

Eh, I'm VT so I don't care.

Anything that gives a slight chance of actually nailing scum I'll support.
