Something_Smart also picks 9 every game. It's strange to me that you know that but not this, and also that I knew this but not that; not until someone pointed it out.
Interesting. Wonder what sort of metagaming this could lead to.

I didn't say it was scummy. I just said it was strange.

Thor: does this factor in to your overall current read on CSF?

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. It does make her more likely town unless she isn't scum with a few specific players + anyone who did proper research

Spicy, but not spicy enough. I need more spice from you.

Given two votes on Gamma already, and your statement here (keeping aside that the premise of the earlier parts of that post has been discarded) wouldn't that be a stronger vote for you?

I think Thor is town. .-. Why would you fake that level of number analysis and keep going with it when you’re adept at faking things and could do normal things to get you townread? Calling it busywork seems shallow and if he was scum wouldn’t he have partners saying like “say this or that” instead of him keeping himself caught up in it?

And if he believes it for real then he’s just town anyways.

Its busywork as it gets nowhere, but the belief in it and attempts to mechsolve seem genuine at least.

I associate busywork with negative too and I think people are using it as a scumread way.

To be clear, that analysis was done by Hoopla, not Thor.

fwiw my guess weould've been something like 3 so
none.

that game you're talking about was open 630. the mod made a mistake and didn't let scum talk pregame, which resulted in two scum picking the same number. so, never willingly.

scum simply don't like sacrificing good draft position for potential WIFOM trickery. well, it isn't really WIFOM since scum never do it. we can fairly confidently declare there is only 1 (at most) scum within paired and tripled numbers.

you can even see visually that scum end up disproportionately higher in the draft compared to the bottom half. it's actually quite glaring how much of an advantage knowing two other numbers and avoiding them can be;

draft positions of 42 scum in 14 PYP games:


1st - xxx
2nd - xxxxx
3rd - xxx
4th - xxx
5th - xxxxxx
6th - xxx
7th - xxx
8th - xxx
9th - xxxxx
10th - xx
11th - x
12th -x
13th - xx
14th - xx


we execute in the top half of the playerlist today, and preferably a singleton.

You mean, the best PR to take away from scum? One-shot vig is surely not better than cop or doctor, but it is much better for scum.

Oh it wasn't a meme. Yeah uh most mods either use the tags (you can play around with these, but not in a game) or random.org.

Interesting the House wagon picks up now and not when he was being a drama king.

Thor is still not scumhunting.

Lost interest in that for now, House is null to me, and there's momentum here.
