There's nothing wrong with saying someone is town, it's someone asking someone else that seems scummy.fuzzylightning wrote:i know that, but that is not what i am saying, speculating someone is town really doesn't help the scum

The mafia knows everyone who isn't scum. That is a fact. Asking someone who they think is town is not, and has never been, a scum tactic. Opinions and information help theMonkeyMan576 wrote: That's not necessarily true that scum know who every town is...TOWN.You've said nothing to convince me of otherwise.
Also, bringing up 3rd parties? I don't think scum would care if they hit town or 3rd parties. Scum wins when they are the majority regardless. So even still, your point that scum is somehow HELPED by asking other players who they view is town is wrong.
Now, if someone were to ask "HEY. WHO DO YOU THINK IS A COP OR A DOCTOR!?" Now THAT would be scummy.
Scum doesn't rolefish for townies.
It's good to see you engaging in some actual discussion, though.-

I disagree, scum would prefer a SK stay alive as opposed to a town power role. And I never said I opposed discussion, I opposed the treatment by Starbuck and no one bothering to question her.Brandi wrote:

Brandi,
if you were scum and asked everyone in the game who they think is town, and one name comes up on 8 people's townlists, aren't you more likely to kill that player? I don't know about you, but if I were scum, I wouldn't want a player around who everyone thinks is town. But if half of those 8 people refused to answer the question, the scum may not realize how many people see this player as likely town. So as frustrating as it can be, someone not giving all of their reads is actually a good thing.
--------------------
Monkey,
I disagree about SKs. Scum want them gone ASAP. As long as there is a role that can kill at night opposing them (vig/SK), scum not only have to avoid the lynch, but a NK as well. They are no longer safe at night. So their odds of dying increase twice as much just by having a vig or SK alive. So yeah, they want SKs gone and if one is in the game, that's who they would, or at least should, go after.KMD is the coolest dude who ever lost a bet to me - vonflare-

The only reason I say that is that SK are more likely to hit town than scum at least early game. Obviously the SK has to go at some point, but my point is that one playing asking another player about who they think is town sounds like scum trying to get ideas on who to kill. Also it can lead to role speculation.Kmd4390 wrote:Brandi,

I think I understand better with the way you have worded things. I suppose you are right, scum would want to get rid of a player that the entire town viewed as town. But I did not ask everyone who they thought was town, I asked Monkey, because I genuinely wanted his opinion. I did not see how such a question could be detrimental to the town.Kmd4390 wrote:Brandi,

[quote="Brandi"]@chamber: A spade is a spade. My descriptions of how I view the situation and his recent behavior are quite accurate. Those are not personal attacks, as I have not insulted him as a person. I have insulted his actions, and rightfully so. If my behavior was as hideous as Monkey's display, I would love it for someone to show me the error of my ways that I might change them for the better. Perhaps I should have kept my strong opinions to myself, but it looks like Monkey is actually make an effort to join us so I don't feel as though it was entirely pointless.
If you've noticed, I have been more so trying to push him to participate because I do not feel he should be today's lynch. He is currently not the scummiest player here. (My current read on Monkey would be scummy, leaning neutral)

There is a difference between pointing out a fact, and pointing out a fact while being a jackass. You were doing the latter. Your words may have claimed to push him to continue, but I think your actions did the opposite. I think hes restarted playing inspite of them, not because of them.

I seriously doubt any scum in ANY game would ever use other players opinions of who's townie or not to direct their kills. That is just senseless.

That's right, I think it's scummy to ask for someone's opinion on who is town. I don't want to help scum, so I'm not answering the question. Do you think all questions should be answered weather they are pro-town questions or not?StrangerCoug wrote:semioldguy is not scumhunting? *scoffs*
