I mean, I could probably make up a reason if you'd like, and if I was scum, preeeeeeeetty dang sure I would have made up a reason for doing so, but legit haven't the slightest clue. It's just what I do? Honestly don't think I really thought that far ahead, just decided to do it and that was that.

)Devil's advocate, Ank replaced out of demotivation which can happen as scum, but realistically? No. I know the reason Ank flaked was because of the disinterest, and being practical, that's far more likely to come from town.↑ Wickedestjr wrote:Do you think Ank would have replaced out as scum?

Well, weekend, so he's probably V/LA. But I don't recall much activity prior to the weekend from him, so this is an alarmingly good point.↑ Wickedestjr wrote:Where is PeregrineV?
This, and the fact that if they're scum it fills a lot of the mental gaps in the what-if scenarios, are more reason for my concern about them.↑ Wickedestjr wrote:I'm kinda starting to think that LC is scum again. Makes a lot of sense in combination with the night kills. N1- he had the commute so he knew they could kill the claimed not-VT. N2/3- he had kept saying that scum would be aiming for recipients of the weak cop rather than the weak cop inventor... and then weak cop candidates died. N4- Sonic Boom died, a surprising choice for anyone but maybe LC knew that mastin wouldn't give the invention to them. N5- makes sense for obvious reasons.

3:2 ratio is far better odds of not choosing wrongly than it is with a 4:2 ratio. It's 40% chance of nailing scum vs a 33% chance. And it should be extremely fucking obvious that much and more of the players in this game are following schtick thrown out by scum, thereby making it that much more likely you will mislynch tomorrow and lose.

Following my mislynch today

2-3 pages of no relevant content per day is enough to make anyone lose interest in a game (nobody is playing) regardless of alignment. Interesting you KNOW why Ankamius flaked, though. He didn't mention it in the thread...
Are you talking about ongoing games elsewhere or do you share a scum topic?
Posted: Sun Aug 23, 2015 9:01 pm
From where I sit the last two scum are in T S O. Mastin, and LC. We have one mislynch left. What do you want to do?
Posted: Sun Aug 23, 2015 9:14 pm
I know because Ankamius is a student of mine.
Repeatedly.

I can be effective in games when I have a grasp on the game, but disengaging and becoming a nonfactor happens far more often.

How is 4:2 with 2(?) confirmed town worse than 3:2 with one conftown or zero?

The Role of Magnesium in Biochemistry
Magnesium is an essential element in biological systems. Magnesium occurs typically as the Mg2+ ion. It is an essential mineral nutrient (i.e., element) for life and is present in every cell type in every organism. For example, ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the main source of energy in cells, must be bound to a magnesium ion in order to be biologically active. What is called ATP is often actually Mg-ATP. As such, magnesium plays a role in the stability of all polyphosphate compounds in the cells, including those associated with the synthesis of DNA and RNA.
Over 300 enzymes require the presence of magnesium ions for their catalytic action, including all enzymes utilizing or synthesizing ATP, or those that use other nucleotides to synthesize DNA and RNA. In plants, magnesium is necessary for synthesis of chlorophyll and photosynthesis.
Mg2+ is the fourth-most-abundant metal ion in cells (per moles) and the most abundant free divalent cation — as a result, it is deeply and intrinsically woven into cellular metabolism. Indeed, Mg2+-dependent enzymes appear in virtually every metabolic pathway: Specific binding of Mg2+ to biological membranes is frequently observed, Mg2+ is also used as a signalling molecule, and much of nucleic acid biochemistry requires Mg2+, including all reactions that require release of energy from ATP. In nucleotides, the triple-phosphate moiety of the compound is invariably stabilized by association with Mg2+ in all enzymic processes.

Yeah. I prioritize it over a lot of things I probably shouldn't, but my very pregnant daughter in the hospital with contractions a month early isn't one of those. If I have time I'll post. If not then I wont

Because, aside from how much people have derided my reads, they've actually been pretty damned on this game. Hiplop was obvtown. Nacho was obvtown. Aristo was a scum read and mathematically so was Ika. I'm pretty sure me defending hiplop is what ultimately lead to his mislynch so I was at a loss on what to do with Nacho. I thought about voting him when his wagon was gaining steam, but ultimately decided that even that may not have derailed the hive mind.
Um. No. In a seventeen player game, there are four scum and thirteen townies. It is inevitable that you correctly townread at least nine of the thirteen townies, so it's not really impressive that you had some correct town reads. A player's accuracy should be determined based on how many scum they suspected, and you weren't very accurate in that area.
Aristo was a scum read? Yet you originally voted Kari in the Kari v Aristo battle. If you scum read Aristo and ika, then how come you didn't join their bandwagons prior to hammer?
Your consideration of voting for a town read is plain ridiculous.
This entire post reads like complete baloney.

Weird vote. "Not understanding why no-lynch is a bad idea" is probably not a tell. You say you're done and then proceed to ask Jaqen another question.
