Jocks scum game has improved from his last scum game. He might have even won this after a rayn lynch. I really don't know how cop and HF couldn't read rayn if eywa can. Maybe we should elevate this strategy of threatening to stop playing to scum standard until it stops working.

Thanks my dude.
I think I'm a god natural scum player, because in real life I am scum (or at least that's what my parents have always told me).

One thing I noticed (probably best not to listen to anything i say though) is that no-one from town realized that there was never really a plan and everyone was in their own little world. Eywa actually had a good plan and I'm surprised that no-one mentioned killing rayn day 3 just off the back of that (which is why i thought i had to bus rayn at the start of day 3), but everyone went back to improvising and trying to figure it out themselves.

It means you can be more active as mafia and its no longer obvious because the organization isn't there. The games I've been involved in here where town has had alot of success were the ones where people were cooperating on PoE and getting information but it just seemed like there wasn't enough of that in this game.

But I'm a stupid Jock and have no idea what I'm talking about

^^I do realize that hf tried with the no-lynch and no-one knowing about the 2KP kind of scuppered that so some of it can be put down to circumstance.

tbh you are right but you don’t practice what you preach either

the biggest problem I’ve seen in the recent two games I was in, one as mafia and one as town, is that two town groups form and when people as a group lynch into the other town group, they refuse to re-evaluate their stances or reads bc everyone believes they are some infallible mafia god and only after their lynch is had they will begin to think that maybe someone they think is town is actually not mafia. or their lynch is had but they can’t seem to let go that maybe leading a town lynch means your tip top 100% can never be mafia read is perhaps shit and needs to be re evaluated

ofc this doesn’t exclude me either

Absolutely, I'm a poor town player - I'm not trying to throw shade at all - i was speaking from a scum perspective from this game. Maybe I'll learn from it.

It is just a game, people need to relax.
I feel embarrased a little bit but I know my “moon magic” logic is not taken seriously.

The first person ever to call out Jock was me for his “ he is doing filters to look town” and I got shut down.

I would have also done that as town in that situation. I'm not beyond putting an extra bit of effort in in the early game. I had the feeling you were generally suspicious of me until the 2kp thing happened though, it seemed like constant effort to stay ahead of your suspiciousness and that actually made me make a few mistakes (that Eywa noticed).

About that, I didn't know until i mentioned it in the thread, and rayn wasn't about, so i had to make the decision whether to push for a no-lynch and get the BS win or take the credit.
I didn't feel it was unfair to take the towncred for it.

I think you did amazing game Jock! You even manage to cover for Rayn a little sine he couldn't be around. I get you had to bus in end but sheesh you held that off so long! I'm super impressed

! I'm die on my feet so I'm just drop off sometime soon.. just bored and want someone to talking to :p!

Thanks

This was only my third game as scum and i'm quote proud of it tbh.
I love that rayn and i got work together more nearer the end even after I bussed him (I thought he might hate me for it because I did that while he was afk lol)... We really had to coordinate strongly with the fakeclaim for it to work but its so satisfying hitting all your primary and secondary objectives

I am 100% one of those weirdos that loves being mafia and gets frustrated by being town.

I'm gonna have a little break from the game for a month or so (hopefully) now, maybe I'll cohost something, because this was all pretty intense.
