Occam’s Razor. The step from going “oh crap I think I am obvious, better play it up” seems like a large one.

Idk, I think that a naturally good scum player could totally make that leap straight off the bat
I’ll think about it tho

If the goon and strongman are in separate pairs:
The goon barricades, all town shoot. The only surviving player are the masons, town read, and the goon, the masons strand the goon and win.
The goon shoots, all town shoot. Everyone dies except the masons and the town read, we win.
The goon and strongman are in the same pair:
One of the masons/townread die, it’s 2v2, town lose.
The only times this plan fails is if we put both mafia members in the same pair, or if we get the one town read wrong. Having one strong town read is a pretty low bar to set for a plan, and the chance of mafia being in the same pair changes based on the number of players, but is pretty low. We should do better than random chance anyway, since the masons will be pairing people.
Town doesn't actually lose when majority is lost. So if the game ends up 2v2 it depends who gets the votes off faster. A tie in votes will never result in a no strand. Even if the Mason were to be stranded the remaining townie can take a shot on the strongman. 1v1 also comes down to the faster vote. Stranded loses regardless.
I also say this using the standard mafia wincon but I'll double check in case scum do win when town loses majority.

Gandalf's
really
town, the voting struggles with the BBCode was genuine, newbie!scum does not attempt something as over the top as that. His confusion about the Delta's strat is also reasonable for newbie!town who's never played a forum game before (let alone something as
weird
as this one), others have sufficiently explained now though why scum would not counterclaim masons, and why the masons will be confirmed most of the time. I will now point my
at Gandalf.
Most Serene has voted for me and thus I shall now place my vote on them.

Malenque's logic on Gandalf and Ecafu being scum together seems a little
dodgy
, would like to hear him
expand
on that.

Also, something like this does not come from newbie!scum, it comes from newbie!town who doesn't understand the
merits
of Delta's strat.

Mafia win at 1v1, but Town can win at 2v2 if they strand the Goon.

Ahh strongman can't be stranded. It still ends in a draw if town isn't stranded 1v1.

I feel like this is the visual equivalent of listening to Bobcat Goldthwait.
That vote is bad. Kuribo is a loose mouthed God and if he is town we will want him and his deliciously dirty mouth around until we will surely see he's not working in our best interest.
Fun fact: my only legit warning came from emulating kuribo in a post. Fun times!

Really didn’t like the first two posts from egduf, felt LAMIST and pinged me
That made me read the interaction between the two as potentially coached
Idk I think I’ve been kinda talked off Gandalf but egduf could still be scum alone

In my 2nd game on the site, scum decided it made sense to be very combative and unhelpful and bank on people thinking scum would never do that.
In my 3rd game on the site, I replaced out because somebody was being a toxic dickbag. It's ongoing so I can't say more.
As long as I have a gun this game, that shit is not flying with me again. I'm tired of having to deal with people like that in every single game and I'm not afraid to back it up with a bullet.
Ball's in Serene's court.

I don't give a fuck who you are, if the answer to my question is "yes" then I'm putting a bullet in you. My tolerance for assholes is zero after the last couple of games I'd had to deal with.

Fish and Iconeum can confirm to you that this is not a stunt and that I take this aspect of the game
very
seriously. In Newbie 1942, we all played together, and we had to work through some very testy times. I only lost my cool with the one guy I referenced before. I can work through many things, I don't have the patience for needless assholery. If someone is going to revel in their reputation for raging then I'm just going to put a round in them and be done with it.

I've not said a god damn word sideways to you and you call me an asshole? Lmao gtfo
