How many scum are there typically in a game of this size anyway?

I mean I think Zoid is complete shit but this was actually a valid point and I don't see how it isn't.

5+, or 2 teams of 4 or something?
Depends on how twisted reck and UT are.

Welp I cut the Zoid quote out but just follow the link.

Now, serious proposition.
Let's lynch a pain-in-the-ass spammer today. There are four to choose from. Chances are good one of them will be scum - hopefully we'll pick the right one.
Some of the spammers will die at night, if we're lucky - I wouldn't count on scum X-kills because there's nothing that scum loves more than to be inconspicuous is a sea of spam. Paradoxically, this is not inconsistent with the spammers being scum, since they obviously have no self-control.
The onus is on us to get rid of them during the day and hope we hit scum.
Once they're dead, we can actually have a game that moves at a reasonable pace and have more intelligent arguments (including ragecaps) instead of page upon page of witless one-liners.
That's the other post, fwiw

I don't read that as a multiball slip. Makes just as much sense assuming only one scum group.

811 is though, previous post was to the first one.

ok that's not worthy of attention when 25p games I've here tend to go 3/3/1. You could save effort by mentally assuming that is the case without further evidence and go from there.

scum crosskills generally need more than 1 scumteam though.
third party mentality is different: see OttN for that.
Regardless, there's no reason to lynch DGB. Eventually someone will get tired of her convoluted randomness and just shoot her.

Wait no it isn't. She goes from lynch-within-spammers-to-hit-scum to how-other-spammers-will-die-alignment-independent.

She doesn't say anything about crosskills.

Saying spammers might be scum, but other scumteam wont shoot em because scum loves spam is crosskill talk though?
EDIT: Opinions, they change!

↑ Pretentiousdra wrote:So this is bullshit for a few reasons. 1) You are reacted to his vote on you by discrediting him immediately even though you have later admitted that he was caught for the wrong reasons. Ergo, that your initial reason he was scum was not correct. 2) We all have a scum read on you in the QT (besides Wyrd who hasn't said jack about anyone other than us/Kawaii being scum).
I think you misunderstand "caught for the wrong reasons." That's not my perspective, that's the scum's perspective. They're under the impression that they're playing swimmingly and all the little creatures are eating from their hand. Then suddenly, out of the clear blue sky, I turn on them.
I know I caught them for the
right
reason. But because they don't exactly get what it is that tipped me off into a lynch-rage, they feel that they shouldn't have gotten caught, and they're all butthurt about it.
If you have this powerful voting block that all seems to think I'm scum except Wyrd, why aren't you trying to lynch me?
There is a reason. That's because you don't have to go head-to-head against during the daytime, since you can NK me.
See, I can't kill One Erection at night, so I have to pursue it in the daytime and try to persuade players.

First, her talking about lynching a spammer and hopefully hitting scum and her talking about not being able to rely on scum to kill spammers are two separate things.
Second, I was uhing at you saying no scum hydras and asking if one of the hydras had even posted yet.

DGB what's the case, I want to believe. Is it just "he's mad I said he's scum for the wrong reason".

And have fun with that I guess?

There was a welcome pause in the spamming that gave me a chance to get a handle on the game, so that I can start spamming myself.
What's the matter Ythan? Did I catch your buddy?

Are you asking for the long explanation instead of the standard DGB shorthand? If you say 'yes' I will deliver.

If you can actually put in a tiny bit of effort to show me why this is a good case I'd be that much more likely to buy it. Why aren't you doing that?

Yes, please. It was a sincere request.

I'm voting OD because there is basically nothing useful that is being posted by them.

trust
me on this DGB
Also, there is no substitute for a good old-fashioned scumlynch.
Why the defeatist attitude?
But DGB Action Dan just made a craptastic scum post in the QT, like "Lol is he still trying to retroactively justify this fate scumread" levels of bad
Katsuki is the surefire lynch here
No, I made the post because you were bordline AtEing claiming that you felt you couldn't be rational in the QT because of the absurdity of your wagon. meanwhile everyone of us has shared their thoughts on everyone who isn't Fate/Nuwen in both openly and rationally. AND your wagon didn't come out of thin air. You are just dismissing the scum read on you in favor of the theory that chesskid and/or Kawaii is actively bullshitting a scum read on you and conspiring to force this same read on the rest of the QT.
DGB, I'm not voting you because I think Fate is scum and there is more utility in getting rid of him in the QT so the rest of us can coordinate our roles. If it's impossible to lynch him I'll be voting you.

Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the least convincing of them all?
You're voting him because you don't give a flying fuck who dies as long as its not you.
