Indeed, we are given two ears so we can discern the direction from which a noise is coming far easier. Just like how having two eyes gives us visual depth perception. Audio depth end direction is aided greatly by the dual-ear system.
We need not speak in different directions, and if we do, our neck suffices for that directional change.

The chance of scum in a random collection of 25% of the playerlist is almost 100%. In fact it may even be more than 100% (I'm being a bit lazy and not bothering to compute it), though the number itself is meaningless other than as a guide.
Why so touchy about it?

You could do this and have absolutely no impact of the game at all, which I'm sure will serve you well if you're scum.
As an alternative, you could align with a block of people who agree with you philosophically (me/vifam/spyrex/kts) and together we can change how this day is played out.
I haven't read half the thread yet so it might change.
What you were reading to me as an attempt to be nonchalant read to me as frustration; I think that sometimes people react a bit too sensitively to votes on them and that seemed to be what was happening with Skrub.

I have a theory as to why Vifam was killed. Will post more later when I have time.
I'm kind of interested in hearing more about this
Just got home. The short version is Vifam said something in the PT. Something I could verify. Vifam ends up dead means scum didn't want that something to come out. Vifam's scumread in the PT was Kraska. Therefore Kraska is very likely scum.
In post 1880, SpyreX wrote:If they were drunk enough to I'm gonna gunsmith kraska thats not a huge leap. I mean wifom wifom blah blah but why f around.
I said Vifam said SOMETHING. and that Kraska was their top scumread. I did not publically say Vifam said that they were gonna gunsmith Kraska. Thanks for scumclaiming.
VOTE: Spyrex
I needs more votes please. And SpyreX is not in my PT.

FYI grapes got killed as a Miller with 4 posts all game. Might want to look at their reads. Generally a miller sticks around because they could be mislynched or made to look suspicious. Grapes being killed is hella weird.
Three out of four likely scum ain't bad.
That was the most obvious Vig shot I've seen and I haven't even read the game. Come on now.
In post 1870, DiamondSentinel wrote:Speculating the reasons for a nightkill is rarely valid unless they have some decent reads, or are leading the town. Night actions are rarely reasons to kill. So, I'll let you have your charade, while I do actual scumhunting.
Reasons for the night kill is one of the biggest things towards scum hunting there is. Reads are another. Both put together is scumhunting. If you were in the PT you'd know why my suspicion is very much valid. You can accuse me of not scum hunting but I assure you it makes a fuck ton of sense. I always do NK analysis. It's a great way to catch scum especially when they plan a mislynch on someone but that someone on the scum team is stupid because of NK reasons. NK analysis narrows a pool significantly.

This whole conversation is ridiculous. But I don't think it makes Math scum tbh. It's gonna be the big distraction of the day that scum use to avoid being lynched.

That's fine DS, vote where you feel it's right!
In post 1965, DiamondSentinel wrote:"hmm, he wanted to lynch X person. We should lynch them, because he must have been onto something"
Don't forget this is exactly why were voting Kraska. Because a PR was going to investigate them (aka scumread them) and is now dead.
And yeah, I always assume people's genders online by avatars and speech patterns, so many here have been called "she" (yourself included DS) at different times. It tends to be my go to for online ppl for some reason. It's not generally meant as an offense, it's just hard to keep straight sometimes. I am sorry this has bugged you so much though, Math, and I'm sorry for harping on this. I think it is a point we needed to talk about to move on from though.

"Just throw some bodies at the PGO," says Ascended Masters. "Sure, it won't be scum bodies, but it will confirm that they are dead! Well assume they were victims of the PGO if it's convenient, and say we can't be sure they weren't killed directly if that works better."
Would lynch AM, Kraska, or Skold atm. All three should be scum.

A player gets wagoned and claims a targetable role. If they are town, they target kraska and get themselves vigged instead of mislynched (increasing town's kpn) and in the process confirming kraska as town. If they are scum, they refuse to target kraska and then a 1v1 forms.

If someone could just, like, make a "Coles Notes" summary for me every 10 pages or so, I'd love them forever and probably be more active.
Feel free to fill it with your own agenda and views. I don't mind a bias in it at all!

Okay, so with a quick look at this game's stats thus far, I have some interesting revelations.
1) I subbed in just 2 IRL days into the game and it was already, like, 60 pages or something!? Wtf everyone!
2) 8 living players have over 100 posts. 6 are between 50 and 99. The other 14 (Yes, that's half the game) are 1-49 posts. I think some people in this game are over talking and drowning the thread, while others either get lost in the sea of words and either can't keep up (like myself, RK, Mirhawk, and the Beardbert head is AM) or are choosing to lurk, and easily getting away with it. I'm not saying all this content is bad, but there is an awful lot of one sided content being generated, which is hurting the towns chances at survival. I'll make an effort to wade through the posts that have been made, but I think those who are posting an intense amount or walling all over the thread should take into consideration the effect they are having on the game when doing so.
3) DGB is in the game!? Why is this something I didn't know!? Why haven't they posted, like, anything!? (See #2 for a possible answer.)
4) Somebody (Drixx IIRC) is due do a prod.
5) Frozen, the Mod, had 76 posts. That's more posts than 18 of the living players. When this is the case, there is something wrong.

Although reading that and Kraska's reaction is fake sounding as all hell! And it was only page 10, which uh can only assume was still RVS. So meh, not gonna let that sway me much.

arislot has done fuckall this game and a huggyfeely wallpost or three doesnt change that.
klingy is ditto - but for old meta i can give it a pass for now
rk is inconsistent or not transparent enough. take a pick
Just an FYI that voting me won't give me any extra time to do things here, so this is very unlikely to get me talking any more actively than I have been.
In post 2628, Skrub wrote:If we're policy lynching people, DrippingGoofball should be next
Why?
DGB is a very good power player when given the time and space to work. As long as they get their head into the game that is...
Look at her ISO. She's barely posted at all and almost all of her posts are naked votes. She's not helping the town, so she should go
A lot of people should go. Why would we start with a potentially strong player over someone who is typically weaker?
Who would you PL instead?
What about fucking RandomIdget!
I could pick other names, but holy crap! He's another one I didn't even know was here. His posts are all empty one liners, he egoposted twice after having already posted in the thread, and he is, at least in my experience, not a huge loss to the game.
I'm sure I could make cases for others. Heck, until this point, with the lack of stances from me, I could probably have made a better case on myself as a PL than DGB.
No more talk about PLs or whatever until a fair amount of people do this.
To be a good example, my top 3 are KTS, Road, and TAM, in no particular order.
If we were to PL, I'd go for RandomIdget now that I know he's here. Nobody is even talking about him and that may be because scum aren't going to bring our attention to a lurky member when there is this much disarray in the thread.
I could probably also go Skrub should I make the effort of making a case, and Ascended would be good if we bother looking at post-flip associatives and wagon analysis.
There is an easy push on a potentially good player being thrown around. There are better PL targets if we want to go that route. Why would I not defend this slot?

b/c her play doesn't seem town motivated. Like, I shouldn't even have to explain this at this point but we lynch/don't lynch players based on thier play, not their reputation.
I know that, but if you have multiple players who are similar in play, as we have in this case, and one has a better reputation for later phases, why would you not lynch the other one instead and see if the one lives up to the expected pay? If they do not, by all means toss them back on the table, but there is no reason to start there.
