Serious q cos im not familiar with your scum game.

Is the scum top tier *BECAUSE* of town being bottom tier?

i.e. leeway is giving to you that isnt to players of a higher standard town game?

I honestly don't think so. That is a good question, though.

I think I'd learn a lot from both having a green newbie shadowing me and by shadowing a more experienced player.

Different question: is the town bottom tier because of scum being top tier? Do you get mislynched *because* people are wary of your scumgame?

As top tier town more of your cases need to be right and on scum.

As town Risen(today), less of you cases have to be right.

As scum Risen, I would be fairly sure that other players dont regard a bad (not top tier) case on fellow towny read of theirs as a sure scum sign from you. They know you can be and are wrong as town.

If you become better as town, and habitually put out cases that make sense to other top tier townies. Then as scum you're going to have to learn to fake them.

Not trying to talk you out of learning to improve town, more pointing how much "fun" it will be trying.

Getting better is work. That is why being better is worth something.

You have to PM us actually. I'm all booked up right now but if you are interested in the next few months I might be able to fit you in. If you want something sooner I'm sure you could find someone else willing to take you on.

This thread gave a neat idea for a new game: Shadow mini mafia.
9 (or 11) experienced players that are all shadowed by inexperienced players. Then either replace all the original players by their shadow after 2 days or follow it up instantly with a new game with all the shadows to try to make them apply what they learned from shadowing immediately.

would prefer the direct follow up version. With the caveat that those who shadowed one alignment but rolled the other would not have learned much of use and you couldn't mirror the alignments. WAIT! YOU TOTALLY COULD. Reveal who the shadows are, do not reveal who they shadow. Each shadow gets the same alignment they shadowed. Could be epic.

I think that shadow mini sounds really cool.

I also want to /in as a shadow with no particular preference for player or game, really just as soon as is feasible.

We're working on setting one up as we speak. I have no idea when/if it will occur but let it be known that attempts are being made to create such a game.

I would offer to be a player to be shadowed, but I'm not playing much anymore.
