I'll eventually read *something* but eventually is not now
They kill twice in the group. Setup starts with 4 scum. We lynched one.
Thanks El Pingüino!

Lynchbait is who we want in the coalition besides scum.

El Pingüino, the coalition is the thing we're voting for? The four players who can get nightkilled? Being in the coalition is bad?

No we're voting on the veto.
Coalition is what we selected yesterday that failed. There's a minimum of one scum in the list voted on EoD yesterday.
That's the coalition you're talking about, right? Damn it I'll read the rules I don't understand anything

Ok I read what the Coalition and Veto powers are (and why we are voting powers on not just lynching like normal human beings).
What was the discussion towards chosing Veto? We would have to vote for the remaining three scums if we want them to shoot themselves, right? Seems difficult to do

Difficult, yes. That's why I am looking from the strategic angle. We include 4 from the first coalition.
Scum kill 2.
That let's us do a coalition of everyone outside plus tmck tomorrow.
If that succeeds, we win. If it fails we have two finite pools that scum must be in. (Either 2:1 or 1:2).

Could you explain that to me like I'm 2 years old? I'm actually 3 but I skipped kindergarden

Sure. When a coalition fails, there must be scum inside the group. In this case,
If we coalition the left overs, then we either win or we know there is at least 1 scum in there.
There are three scum alive.
Therefore, mathematically there can only be 3:0, 2:1 or 1:2 as possibilities.
Coalitioning the leftovers means eliminating 3-0 in most likely scenarios. If it is 3-0 we just win.
In order to coalition the leftovers, we need two dead from the original coalition.
That means the veto needs to consist of four slots from the original coalition.

And has the playerlist agreed with your plan? Or is someone opposed to it?

People want to put the entire scumteam in it to try and get a scum death. While I feel it's a noble goal, it's unlikely even if we had consensus reads.
No one's outright opposed to the plan, they just think the other way is better. I'm in favor of noose tightening, particularly with Creature's OMGUS.

My point is that, if no one disagrees, there's a fat chance that the whole scumteam isn't in the first coalition. Otherwise, at least someone would jump saying "hey I think this is not a good idea" 'cause the scumteam would lose when the next coalition is formed.
So assume there's only 2 or 1 scum in the first coalition. What would your plan be?

If we suppose 2:1 or 1:2, as I agree is likely, then we remove one scum from each pool. Then, we use 1 of 4 to bottleneck the last scum.
The next choice I would do is Vengeful. Each player posts their venue targets (which may or may not be their scumpool) and we lynch. If someone refuses to answer, they're scum. Even obvtown should answer because it lets people know which flips solve the game.
This pick protects tmck unless we hit scum. Plus tmck will have used his power.

I look forward to the arguments that my slot was scummy after I'm killed. I'd be very amused if the veto was all town and we systematically kill off 4 town.
Also, no I don't have to explain anything to anyone. We are all responsible for our own reads and I don't get into the habit of being backed into a corner by overzealous town who wouldn't listen anyway.

Wait, the scumteam can kill the 4 players vetoed? I thought it was max 2
