I used to like playing as scum (against newbies) but then I took an arrow to the knee. Or rather, I got caught pretty easily several times in a row. It's great to make a comeback as town.

Hm. I just somehow dislike his very tryhard and focused early play. My recent memories of him being town are him being completely useless.

people talk about policy lynching lurkers but nobody has the brass ones to actually do it. come on guys, what are you gonna do, hope the kid gets modkilled? join me. you don't have a townread on xig. you never will.

we need to take out the trash

Although it hurts me to use an argument like this, but his entrance seemed more like a prepared scum strategy rather than his normal playstyle :/

But oh well, maybe it's better to leave stuff like this for later.....

I'm not sure myself. It could help scum to choose their NK, but it could also help Cop/Doc to choose their targets. Mafia tend to benefit from silence, but there's not *that* much to be done without the ability to vote anyways... No real pressure can be made etc... Maybe it's better not to be so open yet.

It works both ways. Mafia can narrow down their targets, Cop can narrow down his targets. It's hard to say which one is more important.

Anyways, I suggest not checking me or Artanis. I'm pretty sure we're both town. I'm even fairly sure about myself.

That's overblown. You're never quite like *that*. It's just that your early posts all made sense and were constructive. It feels weird to hold that against someone, but......... You know.... It feels weird.

I'm hurt. I thought we were brothers-in-arms no matter the alignment. Now I see you're just trying to scumhunt.

By the way, why wouldn't scum use an argument like that on BH?

Because on a superficial level it looks really bad. Scum would want to pad it with something more substantial.

Hmm, that seems like a fine reason. I also agree that it was careless to name you as a townread (although I guess it was already implied earlier on).

I also agree that you're pretty bad at following your own policy

Although maybe it's better not to talk about it at the moment... Sigh. N0 start is pretty slow paced.

I think that its far more advantagous to just play normally rather than be scared of a townie being killed because scum know who the good townies are and they are gonna die anyway regardless of how we feel.

I almost agree... but there's the fact that we can't really afford even one mislynch, so a bit more caution than usual is needed. We might have no choice if Cop/Doc gets NK'd, but if we have a choice, I'd rather prolong the game for the sake of having more time to scumhunt + more info from Cop hopefully.
