Hoo boy everyone loves to talk about Tryndamere.
JAT 'n' odin get townie points for asking LSB why bum not "following his plan" is super duper scummy. I don't get why saying you're going to pick some SUPER OBVIOUS role with KP and then not taking it makes you scum.

Of course I'm going to pick that role when I (as well as BC) singled it out as a power role. I am surprised that I actually got the role even though I am dead last pick.

I had MZ picked out as scummy from the way he was going after LSB. Going to reread MZ and a couple other folks, and will look at Jay now that he's come up, but I don't want to lynch any leading candidate.

Marv, Mig since you're here. Why is bum more scum than LBS...

Now there is no way we would be able to tell who is who unless we have a mass claim. It's already late enough that we don't have a picking planed up. I would advice everyone to try to go for either the roles I listed or the roles BC listed.
Keep in mind, mafia did ban out all of the DT roles, so they probably have no problems with a mass claim. However, it is much better to have control and an idea of what these power roles are doing, rather than let mafia use them on their own. I thought about this a little. I think scum was afraid of a massroleclaim in the pick and ban phase. Sandroba was right with his post (100%bluetown etc). So what did LBS do. At first, he mentioned that scum banned out the detective roles. However that doesnt mean they have no problem with a massclaim. But that's not true. That was just one thing mafia did to keep the damage lower. Maybe they anticipated a roleclaim but as sandroba said. a roleclaim would still have been strong.

Mafia clearly didn't want to deal with dt roles this game and if anyones secret role info ends up being a dt why would you out that for mafia? Also people having x roles means any role that requires knowing someone elses role to activate or reach full power of said role gives mafia a huge advantage. It also lets mafia snipe more threatening roles to them more quickly and also makes it harder to determine peoples alignment given that they can shoot based off of "that role would suck to face" as opposed to offing people who are being solid townies, etc.. and thus throwing town into chaos.
Claiming is situational and a mass claim does not help the town anywhere near as much as it helps mafia. This post is totally wrong but i don't really care because people won't follow the plan anyways. I wouldn't say it is totally wrong. Ever since town decided the best idea was to ban out the obvious mafia roles, which was a horrible idea because those would be easy mafia kills, roles do not = aliment.However, giving mafia the power roles free reign is an incredibly stupid idea and come day I will be roleclaiming and voting anyone who doesnt then he agrees with BC who is basically against a roleclaim.

Short version: I tried to be cool by denying tryndamere and nabbing lux, because Risen wasn't taking it, but then LSB said he had trynd so it was worse then a lie. It was a caught lie rather then a confessed one which I intended it to be. I don't know how LSB ignored me and went for that, but don't let my flip effect your read on LSB. Sandroba is right in theory, but it's really just bad luck that he's wrong.
Perhaps I went too hard on jcarlsoniv, but I was and am sure he's scum. You can't fault me for being proud of it. I'll give reads now. I think I'm pretty close to what the actual scum team is so getting lynched might be better at this stage for town.

Oh, Kurumi likely town for saying BC starting people banning urgot was good because urgot's other ability likely a bus (odd thought, figuring out game, no need for scum to add that), and I think was right about MZ's potato-ness.

If Bum is town and LSB is scum, LSB wouldn't have taken trynn, because his team would have told him not to do so since Bum was probably going to take it. If Bum is scum and LSB is scum, he could have dropped it to LSB, but I don't think that's the most likely scenario. If Bum is scum and LSB is town and just replaced in and didn't read bum's plans he could have went for tryn. This seems likely to me because LSB only noticed Bum didn't follow his own plan after BC called out bum on it. The other scenario is bum and lsb are town, which is also possible.
But the base line is, if you think LSB is scum vote Bum first. I bet you any amount you want that if LSB was scum and just replaced in he would have consulted with his team before picking something and they would have told him Bum was planning on picking trynn. By and large I agree with sandro's reasoning I think, and I noted your post down jat because I agreed with the first half of your post when I read it. LSB posted stuff about it in the interim and I have no idea at all if I buy what he says. I just don't know lol. Hm, I don't know. I still think it is possible for LSB to be scum if bum is town. The only question for me is: is it really possible for LSB to play like he did as town? I have no idea - I never played with him but it makes no sense to me.

Do you still think rayn is scum? I don't see why he wouldn't. If he's that concerned about Marv being scum (that's practically his only discussion) then I don't see why he wouldn't concern himself with trying to get that role. Yes, it's seems ridiculous to normal rational thinking, but you also have to remember that paranoia is by definition irrational. The fact that he isn't being irrational really bugs me. As far as thinking rayn is or might be scum, honestly I have not clue. There's no way he gets lynched today so there's a real point in me trying to get an assessment on him in any regard right now.
I have tunneled reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllly hard before, If i thought someone was scum I would witch hunt them all game until I got there blood. One game I did this to a player I had played with together as scum buddies. I was town and thougth they were displaying scum traits. And i tunnelled the whole game. Until finally they died and they were green. At that point the game was over for us. A scum had gotten a hold on town and my tunneling helped us lose that game. I have tried to improve my self by not being irrational when playing mafia. Tunneling Marv and shitting up the thread would help no one.
As well i know my case was weak. The biggest reason I wanted to get it out there is because even if Marv is playing great and looks like a townie. He still has a good chance of being scum. I don't have alot of influence and I'm not the best scum hunter. I know this I don't typically play in big games and I like to stick to minis and even then, I'm pretty useless day 1. I find going on no concrete information difficult. (Oh no your playing your self down as a townie and trying to make your own opinion useless that's scum play. I don't give a fuck I know my limits. I am not the best player and I know I have big weaknesses.) I would prefer to state my weaknesses then talk my self up and make up shit.

I'm a VT I tried to take lux. Last post is almost directly a scumclaim it feels like. I don't know if I'm overreacting. I'm sheeping a read I liked. The main candidates are LSB and Bum. I liked LSB's theory about picking Tryndamere. Also between the two candidates Sandro stated that Bum is the more likely. I have a towniesh read on Sandro.

The focus on Marv seems doesn't make sense with the jump to Bum. When I played with jay in nomination; he was unpredictable and confused as town (i.e. would flip reads instantly on new information).

Loooool Austin scum.
I dont really agree with the Bum scum for LSB scum because why would town pick Trynd? It looks patently useless. It sounds like LSB picked trynd for scum and is trying to justify it going mehhh, should confirm one of the more useless roles

okay. I now got to the tryndamere story again while rereading. I have a really hard time believing that bum and LBS are scum together. Something doesn't fit together here.

I guess I'm not too certain he is? He ignored me when I said I was picking trynd. I'm basing LSB off the fact that I'm town. If you look at it like that, it's pretty unnatural for LSB to have trynd. The best explanation is that we are both mafia and we messed up, and I can understand why people think that.
Just have to roll with the punches.

His initial attack on you seems motivated by how much you burned his ass in the last game more than anything. I see where it could be used to gain town cred but what a weird way to go about it. Basically last time he posted he was promising to read filters and contribute to the game. He comes back to the thread with some indication that he has in fact read the thread (enough to mention LSB and sandro and what they said about bum) but literally has no other contribution of note. He's totally opted out of doing anything today, which fits in much more with how he plays mafia than how he plays town. He seems to have zero interest in thinking critically about the game or doing anything. It reads like he made that post because he HAD to, not because he wanted to. Yea this would bug me too. I never got around to reading filters. At that point There were already two main candidates and out of the two I liked the Bum wagon better. Can't recall the people VE mentioned but i think Jcarl was mentioned and maybe? LSB. Sandro made the post saying how Bum would be mafia for LSB to be mafia and Jcarl wasn't a viable lynch option. This late in the day we needed to consolidate.
