Spyrex – given the scum wincon why should Post 139 not be met with immediate rope?
Ok its time for far more words about this subject than they deserve.
Lets assume that its a unified scumgroup AND that is their wincon. Hell we will make it easier and assume there is no third parties or even vigs. 1 kill a round.
How many scum would you expect? 6-7?
If thats the case there is absolutely no way that list is less than 11 at
minimum
. Further, that list is going to contain some seeerious business thats gonna HAVE to be taken out via kill and not pray for a mislynch.
Third parties? Vigs? That number is going to go
up
.
If its AT something like 11? Well then I would bank on the town having enough power to balance for missing multiple theoretical days.
THAT SAID:
Even if it WERE the case I flat out deny the floating background theory that this is a scum move tryin to make it easy - especially by both of them. D1 in a setup like this its tantamount to death in a myriad of ways tryin to throw out the seeker claim.
I think they are both town but I will unequivocally say that there is no chance in hell both of them are scum that possess that wincon. No way.
My statement still stands and it will stand forever: saying they are looking for someone doesn't bother me. I wish that if that was the route they were going for (in all scenarios in which they're assuming who they are looking for isn't ALSO looking for them) they'd have either kept quiet OR just rolled the hard eight and said who it was. The middle ground doesn't help near as well.
On a related note to that its a little personal reflection time: I am not good at scum. That little icon I have? Its because I could sit and just fuel the fires of paranoia very, very similar to this wincon business we're seeing already. I'm absolutely waiting with baited breath for the inevitable "But blahblah claimed DEATHMACHINE ENDER OF WORLDS I BET SCUM BE LOOKIN FER HIM"
