But it made VE look even scummier than VE had been early on because VE did not give a flying fuck about BH getting lynched. And also because VE isn't fucking awful and clearly saw how scum BH was so him not pushing that lynch meant that VE was a million percent confirmed scum.

I realize I was the only player left who saw that but I really think OO, with his intimate knowledge of you VE, should have been able to discern that and assuming he wouldn't recognize it was quite a gamble. Though one that, in the end, payed off.

I was counting on my hard-buddying to blind his logic where I'm concerned.

It worked. Somehow. I'm not sure how he didn't have you as scum after your weak pile on to his day one wagon.

It's funny, I feel really good about my reads this game (besides the Kush one, but more power to him. I've never seen him give so many fucks as town) and think that if I had been town i would have been a top priority night kill and would have lynched a few scum. Playing as sk is really different though, I've never had to try so hard to NOT look townie. There were times I'd leave the thread for pages and pages so people would forget their town reads on me and I pushed stuff I thought was dumb to try to convince mafia I was no threat (like the DP thing, holy fuck was he obviously town).

haha yea I said as soon as I died that you pretty much had to be 3rd party by how you were playing in the obs. It was funny to watch you push weak shit when you're known for being a strong player

So I finally got around to reading the scum qt.

VE is one smart cookie, he new I was setting a trap and wasn't reading him as town. He was just wrong about the target of my trap. I'd had VE as scum from d1 and wanted to confirm bh as scum to myself, when VE pushed him the way he did it became very clear that VE had no desire to see him die. If it had been up to me VE would have been the d2 lynch since he was the most obvious of the scum. I was deeply confused how Kush and OO had him as town in the endgame.
It was sad finally being the guy who caught all of the scums and not being town so no one went to look at my posts and kill the scum. I will however find eternal joy from this game since Marv and I disagreed on shiro's alignment when we were talking after my lynch and I was right.

...as if town would have gone back over your posts and found the scums if you had been town unless I'd told them to. Come on Prom.

No that was definitely a ray of hope in an otherwise fairly bleak forecast for our team.

I just remembered Carnival Cruise, this is how Rayn reacts to such claims as town:

Some people believe it to be optimal play to claim self-aware miller. I don't really put a lot of stock in early claims and I am perfectly willing to even make shit up for fun as you have seen. If you disagree that's your prerogative. Are you going to lynch him for the claim? If not then we have info for later. If yes then please explain why it is the optimal strategy at this very moment.

It's not optimal. It's stupid or mafia.

I mean it's not optimal to claim miller if you don't know the exact number of delf-aware millers. What Hiro said, it only allows mafia to get away with claiming it right in the beginning. If you are town you should never be checked by a cop.
