"face value play" = "ballsy scum play" ?
It's just a general thing I've noticed, scum don't really want to draw attention to themselves. It may be the correct play in some cases, but a lot of times they're scared to.

Right, and you have it backwards. Its MORE likely that Scum hammer than going off on this, "Scum know they shouldn't hammer because then they look Sus". If Scum want a PR dead, they will prolly Hammer that. We are talking about a JOAT in a game where there is very limited NA going on.
I know I personally don't find Manuel Scummy, so I'm not going to just change my read on him simply for hammering, but I think Scum is more likely to hammer in that situation than not.
Why do you think Scum is less likely to hammer in that spot exactly?

No I think you're just looking at things rather than reading things. Looking at the most normal/logical then thinking outside
Of course scum would try to not draw attention to themselves and would prob not hammer or be a bw vote but that's so basic it doesn't seem true or it may just be not true and I think making towny things off that is a mistake
So trying to say wow look at this post I am town...I mean just saying my thoughts is what I was doing with those posts and if that's what being a LAMIST is so be it label me as one

It's common to look for scum in the middle of the wagon when doing VCA, but that doesn't stop scum from changing. Scum generally try to blend in because they're scared that people will catch them if they stick out.
PEdit: @Maria you may be right.
I'm not saying being on the wagon is towny, I'm saying the hammerer specifically is more likely to be town than not. Of course depends on the player, etc but that's my experience in general.

Yeah, and I'm saying that is baseless.

It's based on my experience playing and reading mafia games.

All posts that seemed designed to let the town know you're scumhunting. They're inner dialog type posts and there's really no reason to make them.

Too bad. You replaced in. I don't expect you to be able to defend your predecessors posts but you cant expect people to abandon their reads of your slot either.
Guess u could have been saying you don't know how ur being lamist cause u don't know what it means. But my context should've told u.

My mistake and all those posts every single one of them was me just saying my thoughts and pressing the submit button so I guess a lot more LAMIST posts are coming your way
