Yeah, I'm learning hot gambits too. If I'm as good at pretending to be stupid as I am at actually being stupid, then my first scum game might be kinda decent. Maybe.

I can tell I already have a hard time pushing emotive stuff. I'm either a robotic null or apparently scummy for skipping pages

IVD, nooooo, you're supposed to do your claim in an anime transformation sequence! Smh my head! Cringe! This is not poggers!

I'm glad only the dead thread can see this. 45 minutes later, I realize the above post is awful.

Hmmmm. Canty is in a really tight spot, but Harumi just made an opening.
If I were backed into such a scum corner (I opened the spoilers), I'd say something like this:
Cantrip/me, theoretically wrote:Harumi, can you elaborate on that? I liked Krazy's elimination plan, but something about it has been bugging me--do you see it in a different light?
Then we wait for Harumi to explain, followed by:
Cantrip/me, theoretically wrote:Right, so it's not just me who sees it.
If Krazy is scum, then her plan to put Harumi, Marci, and me on the chopping block is a guaranteed win, spending her giant pile of towncred from turbo-bussing 2ndchosen1 and her complete pocketing of Alisae to do so. I predict that it goes something like this:
Day 2: Eliminate Harumi or Cantrip.
Night 2: Eliminate IVD, the cop.
Day 3: Pivot to Marci, using her hesitance from today as a rationale, and get her eliminated.
Night 3: Eliminate Meuh.
Day 4: With pocketed Alisae, eliminate the remainder of Harumi or Cantrip. Win.
We're pretty close to the deadline, and I feel that the above is exactly what's going on. VOTE: Krazy
...And then if Krazy tries to switch gears, use that as "proof" that she has to abandon the plan due to lacking towncred.

so what would you do if the town goes for it and lynches krazy?

But I do see saying that I was bussed as a good option

the big problem is having people like Alisae accurately deducting that I was expecting having more time to fall into my VT claim

I'd wait to see how the town reacts after the nightkill (of IVD), since reactions to Marci and Harumi would become important. I could see Harumi going full-tilt on trying to kill me after that, or the debate changing to Marci's waffling Day 2 opinions. I might be able to get away with pushing "Marci was being so uncertain because she knew both of us were town".
I have no idea if any of this would work--I haven't had any scumgames, after all--but it's what I would try.

I could see it working, I'd rate it 65%+ your favor

I can't tell if 873 is trying-too-hard-to-be-town or if Cantrip just wants to end a game he feels is hopeless.

no clue but thats the problem, a lot of it feels very mercurial at times "I guess we'll vote him" *happens to be right*

thoughts on my attempted breadcrumb maneuver though?

I'm not exactly sure what the intent of the breadcrumb maneuver was. Do you point out the breadcrumb later, or let someone pick up on it?

the idea was to take it to the next day or if necessary(i was legit expecting a bit more time) point back at it to prevent the D1

I had also initially also done a mason claim earlier but abandoned the idea on the need of having to rope partner

I think it would have given you some credibility if you pulled it off, but not the amount that you needed. I figure that doing it at E-1 and then springing it during the same day wouldn't really fly. Refusal to claim seems like a huge deal.

Yeah, I'm wondering how to say this in a nice way, but, like. I don't think Ali's posts set a good example for the newbs.

I mean, there really has to be more to an experienced analysis than just saying "red is sus".

Oh, well, that's a wrap.
Krazy is a scary-good townie.
