I'm not liking the discussion about prior games, it really doesn't add anything to this one. I don't care that X player did Y in the game before because we've all played so few games that we won't have too many clear recognizable patterns to follow. I don't necessarily think its a scum-tell but I also don't think we should pursue it any further. | ||

Especially considering within that 75% is likely to be 1 or 2 blue roles that would have to reveal and then subsequently be lost at night if they were the target to be lynched You get a lot more out of lynching than just the player dead, you also get loads of information on everybody and is one of the best ways to have the scum reveal themselves. Bandwagoning, Fence Sitting, Caving under pressure are some of the best ways to spot the scum and these are revealed when you lynch a player day 1. Since its plurality vote anyway, I'm going to be lynching somebody no matter what day 1, so now that the decision to lynch is taken out of your hands you better come up with some scum reads to not waste this day and reduce the chances of a mislynch. | ||

I'm already doing something entirely different from my previous game just because I have a better handle on how its supposed to be played and not because I have a different role. Prove me wrong though, if you can come up with a convincing argument that makes sense you will draw my attention to whoever you think is scum. I'm not counting it out, I'm just a little bit skeptical of its effectiveness. | ||

The fact that you people are so eager to let us lose a day of mislynching is funny though because I don't think any of your arguments make sense. If our strongest weapon is our connection theories and our votes, THEN WHY IS IT NOT BETTER TO GET 1 MORE DAY OF THESE THINGS?????? Wagons can happen every fucking day on every lynch. Why are you all so eager to kill off potential townspeople?? Because lynching gives us the most information. Following your logic, if we don't have a role detector, should we just not lynch day 2 either because we'll lose another day? | ||

Why are you all so eager to kill off potential townspeople?? A couple more things, please don't use loaded questions. I don't want to kill townspeople, but I also think that the risk of doing so is necessary to inspire discussion. Why does it have to be obvious that someone is scum? We should go off our best hunch rather than waste time. | ||

Everyone answer the following questions. Who is your strongest town read? Who is your strongest scum read? This will let us see where peoples allegiances lie. Also, give reasons for your choices. Strongest town read: Holyflare, active, trying to provide analysis Strongest scum read: Lord Velocity, hes just following along with Umasi's ideas, not really providing any of his own stuff. | ||

I'm not trying to have a misslynch day 1 and give scum a one up, but in no way was I saying "He's pro town" I was simply stating that your logic made sense, but: Strongest town read: Nobody so far because I don't think we've heard from everybody? so I can't really base it off of like, the 5 people that actually talked and not about the day 1 lynch thing. Strongest Scum read: Umasi due to his fast vote on Holyflare and his super aggressive early play. Two things: Scum read in retaliation to him questioning you is pretty suspicious. You aren't helping your case with that, especially because your analysis is flawed. Aggression at the start is in no way indicative of scum, and if anything, is more a town indicator than anything, especially when he is leading the charge against a player. It is really risky for scum to be so direct because it draws so much attention to them. Umasi is probably my biggest town read for that reason right now. | ||

I just don't think there is enough to go on piling on the easiest target because he is just a lurker, and it may very well be that a lot of the pressure on him is coming from mafia themselves. Be careful in voting for him because he is the easiest target for mafia to get a mislynch right now compared to anyone else. | ||

It is made up of either asking people of their opinions on players or criticizing other peoples content. There is literally no analysis form him at any point in the game, nor taking any sides. Hes creating posts without content to make it seem like hes contributing to the discussion. This is pretty darn scummy. | ||

Scum don't go after the big leaders during the day because it draws attention to themselves when they could just get it done at night. Heavenz is also leaning town to me because hes trying to involve other players in the discussion as well. He also brought some pretty good analysis against me standing on neutral ground. He is right that I haven't really been taking any aggressive unpopular stances and I've been playing it safe. I think Myrzeth is a waste of a lynch because he isn't playing like scum, hes playing like someone who doesn't know how the game works. For now I think either lonemeow or Lord Velocity are the better lynch targets but maybe someone will make a slip up in the next few hours that will change my mind. I do however still think Vel is the scummier target so that is who will get my vote for the next few hours unless something changes. | ||

If he were scum lurking on purpose he would by now be trying to defend himself somehow rather than just some noob play. This doesn't really scream scum to me if he doesn't really even show up to defend himself. I want to hear more out of him before I lynch him, especially with nightroles being what they are. One thing I will say is I can't really make sense of Holyflare. He just seems to swing all over the place making it difficult to see what his intentions are. | ||

I don't think scum go after the two most active players, that just doesn't make sense to me because it means a lot of scrutiny will be on you. Let me reread his stuff again, but none of it seems to be scummy in my eyes. | ||
