Town makes conscious effort to scumhunt, scum like spam so they can just fade away in the noise.

That has literally nothing to do with replacing out.

How convenient that you could add 4) now - and ironic that you did. I obviously don't buy that you didn't read the subsequent posts in which ff pointed that out.

Finding scum is superior to finding town, which is why using the strat on a strong town read is inferior to using it on a weak one (i.e. a scum read).

The limiting of choices scum has does not affect them in any negative way. In fact, they are only limited in the sense that they now can avoid obstacles that would otherwise be hidden (had the person been picked at random).

ff, seriously, do you buy that Majiffy is convinced that his plan is pro-town? It's disgusting that he's still trying to justify it.

Please don't dodge. Just tell me if you really believe that he still thinks his plan is pro-town, or if you think he's a town who is just arguing because of his ego, or if you think he's a scum who is arguing because he wants to seem stupid (which would excuse suggesting that plan).

If you think there are more options, do add them.

I don't believe he really thinks his plan is pro-town.

undecided about the rest but leaning scum.

1) Uh... ok? Sorry she posted? :?

2) Not really. Finding town can often result in a greater increase in town's ability to win. POE, bouncing reads off people you trust, etc.

3) We don't know what power roles town might have to play with. Potential Cops or Docs can go elsewhere, which could result in a guilty or doc save.

Almost certainly not 3. 2 is the typical scum team in a Micro (< 10p) here. It'll be 2 or less.

also, I wasn't talking about scum in "potentially 3". Of the three of us arguing about whether your plan is protown, at least one doesn't know how big the scum team. potentially all 3 of us. 2 is an approximation.

Try again. Tomorrow there will be 5 non-assassin players. Probably 5 players, period. It will either be 3-2 or 4-1 depending on the day 1 cardflip if there are currently 2 scum.

If there is currently 1 scum then it's 4-1 if the game doesn't end with today's lynch.

There's so very little margin for error.
