Hmm...

Coaching could help with those things? You were pretty easily swayed by long cases which means you weren't very confident in your own opinions (that's understandable though). That also meant it didn't make much sense for us to kill you.

You were a mislynch target, VT and it would look pretty bad for HF if you died at night. During later nights we mostly hunted for the Medic (Nigella) and people who wouldn't be protected / whose deaths wouldn't really implicate us that much.

Well, generally speaking time spent on learning -> skill. Just by playing / observing you will learn a lot. The most important tool for efficient scumhunting would probably be learning how the various players here play as different roles since it's usually difficult even for the best players to judge a complete question mark (smurf / new player). Although there are some general rules for scumhunting that are often correct... Such as the fact that scum often tend to be more active early and then reduce their activity, and scum often have weird reasoning for their reads (since the reads are mostly made up / they may be "true" for townreads but a townread might be stronger than it *should* be when you talk about it as scum, for example).

I very much doubt the game will continue to the next day (since I think we'd need something like 3 more mislynches now LOL, thanks to HTS...), but I won't reveal my whole team yet just in case. But as I said, I highly doubt it'll continue.

Lol, I got him at the end xP Granted, I haven't read what happened after that and might have changed my mind if I'd been around to read it but...

woot! lol >< and yes, my reads were off. I distracted myself with SL way too much and was convinced GB was scum lol

1 HF voted me, and two others did.
2 In his massive case, I was far and away the scummiest player in his list. Far and away. It was quite convincing and if I were someone else, I would have definitely voted myself.

Next student game will be my third. I need to work on my townie game in general, can you request a coach (assuming you don't RNG scum, who I imagine get one as a group)?

He wanted to kill HF and he wasn't likely to be protected. He was also possibly Mason (he said something like "I know everything that LoneMeow thought about").

By the way, who *were* the other Mason and third Ghost?
