OK, so I haven't actually voted or pushed based on activity, I generally find activity to be NAI and I like to encourage people to participate.

Show your working for me? Because I am not seeing what you're seeing at all.

OK... scum absoltuely do not want to be seen as scummy, they need to strike a balance between being obvtown and town as people will question an obvtown target living, and looking scummy will get them eliminated.


I want you to show me where I've pushed based on activity and post count.


PEdit: That is not an answer to what I wanted.

Why do you think this? What does a lack of resistance to me as MO say to you?

Personally I think theres been a lot of resistance to it, whether direct or indirect, and enough players have resisted it can't all be from scum. That's a good thing for later though.

That is me stating post count disparity is concerning me slightly, as some slots are more active than others; followed by a vote on you, a statement informing people that I believe Distance needs to pick up some slack, and having a minor concern about another player.

I will not do your work for you Cyrus, Where do I push or vote based on post counts?

And HEAL: imaginality
This is awful. This is absolutely awful given your own posting. You're showing awareness of the game mechanics while trying to lead town down a bad road.
What is the bad road you refer to?

In no way is it excessive spending. Considering at least 6 town players will get our money back, but probably more (if scum outbid us for one or more of the powers). If scum get two, tomorrow we still have six players with their full stack, and two with either their full stack or a PR (depending on how the voting and NK go).

I think Cupcake is town, and I think Cupcake is capable of making smart choices about which powers to boost and which replacement to choose. And I wanted to choose someone with at least one vote already to make it more likely they could become a valid alternative to ssbm and Flea in time before day end.

In the early stage I felt it was bad because if certain players have announced they've spent all their money, it helps direct scum for the night kill (if they want to kill players who more likely still have a full wallet).
I also felt like it could have been an attempt to deter wagons on you i.e. "don't vote for me, I might have a PR".

When I saw the mid day market update and it was clear you must have been the 125 bidder (no bid of 500, and no one calling your claim to have spent all your money as a lie), then I felt like the particular way in which you spent your money wouldn't have had the wagon deterring effect so that lowered my suspicion of you.

I never thought you were trying to get town cred through your bids though (if I understand that phrase correctly as 'trying to have others read you as town'. My point about that was more that other players might read you as having increased chance of having a PR and therefore riskier to exile all else being equal.

I've waited long enough and nobody else noticed that Imaginality directed his response to
Marci's
question about my scumslip at
Misty
. I think generally scum are aware of their partners and despite the similarities in the names if Imaginality flips red they should both be treated as town.

I'm not sure what your question is but if you're implying our money runs out too early under my approach, I don't think that's true:
- we have ten players
- bid are refunded if the bidder doesn't win
- each scum player can only outbid a town player once (if we're bidding 401 or more)

That means we win 7-10 of the PRs over the first three days (depending on scum bidding choices).

This only limits us when we get to day 4 bidding. Worst case (all convictions and NKs are town with PRs) we go into D4 with one town with PR and 3 with either a PR or a full wallet. I don't think that leaves us screwed over in the slightest, especially if our MO makes good choices about what to boost.

Also note that the above analysis assumes we bid high on all roles each day but depending on the roles on offer we can adjust our approach (e.g. If godfather comes up and we know we've already used the cop power, no point bidding for that).
