Don't assume there will be exactly 1 cop claim either I'd say the chances of someone getting modkilled are reasonably high... There's usually at least one modkill / game and this game has unusually strict rules. With that said, there are less players (potential modkills) too, so of course I hope nobody is going to do stupid stuff. Those numbers are from here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=436988 You've even posted there before ![]() | ||

Unless JJD is doing a really good job of playing dumb, or he actually is dumb (he isn't), he's town. He clearly hasn't thought this true which is, (sigh), a townie trait. Yeah, I have a hard time seeing such a blunder from scum. Too stupid to be scum prevails. | ||

Scum NEEDS to fakeclaim in this setup. Whoever our 2 scummers are, they've been thinking about fakeclaiming for almost a day now; how to claim, when to claim, who will counterclaim, and what to claim. They know that Doctor shouldn't just claim willy-nilly. The only situations where that makes sense (ie doctor saves someone N1 and it's D2 and he wants to claim it or something) don't apply during D1 when the claims happen. JJD as scum would have thought this through. He would be trying to amass towncred by making good suggestions, and talking about "maybe the doc should claim if the cop dies n0" really makes no sense. Scum wouldn't even consider it as a threat to deal with. It's mostly not about "too stupid to be scum" which is false (since a stupid player can of course roll scum) but that scum in this setup almost necessarily already know everything about claiming, and JJD clearly does not. He couldn't have known I'd latch onto this and call him town for it; in fact, an ineffective statement like that is more likely to draw fire than praise, so as scum he'd try to only make true statements rather than things that don't make sense. I was referring to the fact that it would be too stupid to make a suggestion like that as scum after discussing strategy for 24 hours. | ||

Then the real doc counters and we end up w/ the claim anyway. @ least if we force the claim early, we're making scum commit to their lie before the fact. There's merit in forcing scum to act without knowledge of the power roles though. If Cop/Doc just claim right away, scum can plan accordingly and keep their stories straight more easily. Not to mention that it's wasteful to get a Doc killed for no clear reason. | ||

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. | ||

BH would advocate mass claims all the way imo as scum because he is the only person that played this setup before and it doesnt feel like he is taking advantage of his knowledge to propose something scum favored. It just seems like scum would benefit more from narrowing down their kill targets than town from narrowing down Cop targets right now. We can't even really pressure (without voting power) yet. But on the other hand, if we just sit and wait for deadline, scum can also benefit from the silence. Why would scum openly advocate something scum-favored? I don't really get your point. | ||

We never came to any clear conclusion about how we should handle our reads before N0 deadline. I still don't think it's the correct action to share everything unless it's RIGHT before the deadline that you want to do that. Actually Oats did share his reason, but the reason was just plain bad. So I concluded that A) he's scum and trying to justify a read without any true reasoning B) there's more to it (a blueread or something else that he doesn't want to share yet). | ||

Artanis 99.99% town. If he's Mafia, I will salute his extreme efforts to radically change his style and basically scream town with his every action (compared to Titanic where he just lurked and bussed me... it's almost impossible to compare these two games). JJD Pretty sure he's town. He's seemed very convinced of his own ideas and has pushed them in a way that's felt genuine. He also made some decent points about Sn0_Man. Sylencia A big null. He hasn't really contributed anything or taken any stances. Originally I thought more town... For example this post felt like he was actually thinking about the game: On February 27 2014 16:33 Sylencia wrote: Actually, tbh I don't think discussing scumreads influences much at all - scum probably aren't even targeting the most townie member tonight if they can get an inkling of who is a blue role. So really, advocating discussing scum reads or not doesn't matter, but saying not to discuss (which in theory makes it harder for scum to choose an NK target) makes you look townier? I think I confused myself writing this. But on further inspection, not so much. Maybe slightly Mafia for just being so lackluster overall. BH I haven't really figured him out yet. His extremely tryhard start and then just disappearing into uselessness caused me to see red (I really dislike when someone gets less useful as the game goes on - it's typical for Mafia). But he could be just trolling for N0 or something. Null for now. Oatsmaster He's been pretty active and had a presence in the discussion, which I like. But some of his filter just doesn't make sense. For example, his (non-)reason to strongly townread BH and his attempt to "bait town" (why would only town attack a lynchbait?). Pretty null for now. Sn0_Man (!) I don't really like him so far. He's being so casually lurky and just suggesting stuff rather than pushing things forward: On February 27 2014 07:44 Sn0_Man wrote: oke jjd is actively promoting ways for town to lose tho wtf On February 27 2014 07:47 Sn0_Man wrote: how many levels deep of "they know that we know that they know that we know..." did you go?

I don't like, at all. He needs to seriously step up if he wants to look like a townie. And he also needs some more pressure.

I'm the Cop and I checked Sn0_Man. With this I think the most likely scumteam is Oats+Sylencia. It's still possible that one of you (Artanis/JJD) would be Mafia, although I pretty heavily doubt that, so the optimal plan seems to check Sylencia/Oats and have the Doc heal me. | ||

no way it'll succeed. From my perspective, it would be best just to hammer Sylencia right now. Then I could probably check Oats just to be 100% sure. But I guess it doesn't really matter if one of us dies (unless there's a successful Doctor save) since the situation is pretty clear anyways and a town flip + another check would just make it even clearer. Sylencia's "check" might also reveal something (like it made Sn0_Man confirmed town today). I'd be ready to move into night phase already. | ||

That logic make sense to everyone? In fact, if I was scum with Sn0_Man, then it would make a lot of sense. But yeah, if I was scum and Sn0_Man town, then it wouldn't really make any sense at all (taking an unnecessary 25% chance of losing immediately for no real reason). | ||

2) A fake cop check 3) A town flip Maybe not all of those, but at least 2 of them. Each one of them is helpful overall. | ||

Artanis may decide when to end the day. I'm pretty much ready already. JJD, I very much doubt that Sylencia would bus Oats. It would be somewhat possible if it was the other way around, but frankly, I don't see how Sylencia could carry the scumteam to victory. I don't really see how Oats could either, but at least it's in the realms of possibility. I'm almost certainly going to check Oats, and I think Sylencia should do the same. It seems like we gain the most information if we both choose the same target (and specifically Oats). Doctor should probably heal Sn0_Man. If Sn0_Man is the Doctor, he should probably heal Artanis or JJD. There's also a small chance that I might get hit, but since my death would pretty much nail the scumteam, I doubt it. IF I was NK'd, healing me would also pretty much nail the scumteam, since then both me and the Doctor would be confirmed. But it's a lot less likely than scum hitting someone else, so it's probably not the best choice after all. | ||

And it's pretty unlikely to be more beneficial to focus on gathering information AFTER a lynch rather than BEFORE a lynch (especially since no mislynches are allowed). | ||

How does it differ if it does differ? The problem is if we mislynch and lose because we lack some crucial information. You might even be town for example. Or who knows, maybe Sylencia is town and fakeclaimed to troll and scum didn't feel the need to fakeclaim (lol). More information is never bad. | ||

Maybe because it put less pressure on him (nobody can deny his check). Plus Sn0_Man would never have been lynched anyway (if one of me or Sn0_Man would have been lynched, it would have definitely been me - I would never vote for Sn0_Man but he might vote for me). | ||

With that said, it may not have been the optimal check even so, but it's useless to wage a WIFOM war with scum. | ||

However, I noticed one post that stuck out from Xat for me: It's a valiant attempt to gain town cred by trying to martyr, but if you think about it from his perspective it doesn't really show much towniness does it? If he was the town cop, if he died, we'd gain +1 scum in me, but then town would have 66% chance to lose if the NK is the doc/non-protected guy. Doesn't really sound like a good tradeoff to me. However, he's been pushing for a no lynch because it's apparently better to have us completely confused over the cop checks even more on day 2 if there are differing results. Basically he offers the self-sacrifice yet pushes no lynch. That's scum yo. Lolz. How does Sylencia go from thinking that it's beneficial for town to no-lynch to soon use my stance of no-lynching as proof of me being scum? This is such a radical and complete change in his views that it can't be real. | ||

I'm using your stance of no lynch because you're saying "Hey, kill me because it's good" while advocating no lynch to gain town cred. Do you read? Why exactly am I scum for either supporting a no-lynch or mentioning that my death would benefit town? | ||

Hmm, I'm still not sure what you mean. Those are just both separate factual statements. Clearly 1) it's beneficial for town to no-lynch and 2) it's beneficial for town if I die. What's the connection? And what's scummy? | ||

A) greenchecked Sn0_Man and revealed that he was town since everyone kept accusing him and only him OR B) I took a 25% risk of scumclaiming AND removed the easiest possible mislynch only to collect some more towncred I'd say Occam's razor gives the easy answer here. | ||

What if Oats is actually the Doctor? This is what got me thinking: On March 01 2014 22:29 Oatsmaster wrote: shits dont need no reasoning ![]() Xata pls check me. Maybe I'm just imagining things, but it felt like Oats both 1) wanted to be checked and 2) wanted to be checked by ME especially. This means that he basically thinks I'm the real Cop. Now, it could be just that he's scum and it's a slight slip, but it's a possibility that he's been the Doc all along and pretended to support Sylencia (and overall look bad) in order not to get NK'd. I also don't like how JJD has pretty much been inactive in the discussion for a long time. That's part of the reason that got me to reconsider him being near-surely town. I still think Oats is the most likely remaining scum - but it might not be impossible for him to be town. Or... it could be that this was intentional by Oats and I get killed now.... Or it could be that I noticed something that really wasn't there... We'll see ![]() (AFK a moment now) | ||

![]() Btw this was the best part of ScumQT... -Tossup between JJD (blue because massive focus on doc) and Xatalos (Looks to be fishing for a cop target) -Eventually I decide to try and change the shot during resolution phase because Xatalos said he knew something but didn't want to tell it yet and I don't think he'd do that as a blue. It was lucky I did that since I have a feeling we would have suffered a crushing defeat if I was NK'd N0. Also surprisingly much thought went into choosing to kill me the next night. It paid off though. Fun fact: Oats healed Artanis ![]() | ||

It actually gets really fun to me since it becomes all about actually scum hunting rather than playing the claim game. Still sleep d1. d2 doc claims and you reduce to 2/4 to hit mafia even with a doc counter claim its still 1/2 between doc claims or 1/3 outside of the claims. Very fun way to play the game especially when people are new to the situation. That's pretty hard for town IMO. You can't mislynch even once and if there are several scummy-looking players, you (the whole combined remaining town) basically have to guess correctly twice in a row whereas scum only need to get lucky and hammer a mislynch once. | ||
