Honestly, far scummier to me than either of these is Sylencia. While it's true our contributions are certainly in the same range right now, I wasn't here at all yesterday, while Sylencia was there right at the beginning and then disappeared. While he was there, all he did was stoke Cora's flames, speculate about a third party (because that's super helpful), and "interact" with Adam by mentioning some setup talk. It's true that others did a good amount of setup and policy talk at the beginning, but they went from there; Sylencia has disappeared and until he reappears, it looks very scummy to me in the face of what he DID contribute.

Why is any of this scummy? What scum motivation does sylencia has by doing all this?

I dont think its neccesarily townie, but with only a 14-15 hour disappearance, I think its hasty to say that he is scummy cause he was strong in the start and has since not posted anything.
Although, I think that this is weird

Not mafia != town, could be third party as far as we know.

I never even thought of third party for a minute throughout this game. Did you guys do? Is it a scumtell?

People have lives and have to go do things. But he didn't say he was leaving, he was there for the beginning and bounced as discussion was becoming more substantial.

This does not mean a THING, townies do it, scum do it.

So zarepth, is me poking at you to talk more alignment indicative? Or im retarded and should learn how to play?

Cora, is your scum meta the same as your first game as town meta?

My point is that regardless on how someone plays, they are not scum because their meta matches their previous town game.
They are scum because either their meta is different from their town meta in a scummy way, or similar to their scum meta.

Syl, your activity and contribution to this game has been lackluster at best, please step it up if you are town :D

Win rate has nothing to do with how good a player you are.

I refused to elaborate because it was too early to actually talk about it, I needed more posts from marv to solidify that read as either town or scum.

What is the core of your argument, it looks to me like it was my backing down off marv in a suspicious way, in your eyes.

Well I was still leaning scum on marv, but there was absolutely nothing in that push that would help town at that point of time.

I dont see why I need to elaborate when I am not trying to get them lynched YET.
When I am confident in my lynch choice, I will push them as hard as I can.

All these inactive people.

We still have more than 40 hours though, no need to be hasty.

I dont know keirathi, it seems to me like he was just quoting a general statement which was when 2 people fight at the start of the game, they are likely to be both town as scum doesnt want the spotlight bla bla.

Wait so Acro, you are saying that when the thread agrees on 2 duel candidates, they are not forced to duel each other, yeah sure but how large a fucking scum claim is that?

The thing is that EITHER of the them could pull the trigger, so assuming that one is town, one is scum, its gonna happen, scum are forced to duel cause if they dont, they are claiming scum and even 1 for 1 trades arent that good.

Other thoughts?

I just dont feel as comfortable giving up so much control to a SCUMMY player.

This seems kinda like a mayoral lynch, except the mayor is scum, and its not instant lynch.

Ok so your plan is that we pick the one, and that person picks another to duel?

It just screams manipulation to me, like you are giving scum a way out of getting lynched, assuming the one we pick is scum.
Currently I dont have another plan, but I just dont think this is a good idea.

My plan is that if no lynch is gonna happen, I will duel my top scumread.
Not good because generally my reads are not very good. Maybe this game its different? I dont know.
yes I just discredited myself.
But no lynch is definitely not happening.

yeah,possibly. His activity here is better than in the other games Ive seen him in though, in chrono he was basically the epitome of a scummy lurker.
What do you think of cora's plan Keir?
