rac

whatever
so the real doctor is gaining scrutiny even though there's a one shot bp claim out there?

how does that even happen?

a one shot bp with a three shot strongman flip, the audacity

Who is Zack today? Hecht maybe?

Well they referenced being 'too old for this shit' so for some reason my mind went to Weemad. But I don't think Wee talks like that....

Oh hey... I thought I played pretty well. I guess scum thought so too.

I thought you were playing pretty well too, honestly. Was really worried there on D1 that you'd get lynched just for your position on how that lynch works out but I'm glad you made it through.

Man....if Jason hadn't flipped as 3-shot Strongman then Tommy would likely be SOL right now. It's the only thing keeping him alive.

Nah. All this is a weak.

If you don't vote it doesn't matter imo. Hot air.

It is still a weak argument but a lot of people seem to be on the 'well a Doc helps explain the Strongman soo....probably Town.'. Think if that angle was gone it might gain more traction than it currently is.

That is the obvious balance angle but I think the saves are more compelling. At this point it is just shitting on Tommy's play rather than an argument that they are mafia. Which is pretty bad tbh.

I mean I 100% agree with you. Given some of the other lynches (like the almost lynch of rac before he revealed) I'm not tooo surprised this argument exists, I just think it's not gaining traction because of the Strongman flip.

I am shocked that Billy of all people is pushing it, did not expect that.

There is a bit of an issue where being uncertain is a scumtell....if it comes to reading your teammates. Seen a good amount of Scum make very flip-floppy reads on teammates because they always want to be ready to bus at any point.

being uncertain is definitely scummy because people can clam up when they know they're mislynching.


It's not a be-all end all scumtell, but its not nothing either.
I do think there is a difference between uncertainty and working things out on the page and purposely leaving yourself an out. One has a degree of manipulation that to me seems more noticeable. Certain in uncertainty, playing both sides, while the other is legit possibility.
 
I kinda laugh at bulk putting himself into lean town. If he was going to list himself, you'd think he'd put him into pure town rather than "lean" XD

Why.

Well when I was scum the first time, my biggest tell was being uncertain on a lynch, because I knew I was scum and who I targeted was town, and it showed.


Basically, if someone is uncertain on a lynch, it's either town jitters or a newbie scum. That's how I read it these days.
 
Called Alpha5 being scum. Gotta hope Zack is too.

I think it's likely that Scum isn't on the Alpha 5 train based on the way votes piled up gradually, no real opposition and some people didn't put down votes at all. I mean it was turbo'd so that could be an excuse but I'd say it's likely that Bulk, Skull or Blue are scum as they didn't have votes on Alpha at all.

Also billy for his vote on Zack I guess.

Maybe the scum just feel defeated and don't feel like fighting? lol.

White Ranger is a potential busser.

4 votes comprising 2 confirmed town and the two strongest voices in the game. And with all the shade thrown at Tommy an alternative lynch never really developed.
 
Oh hey, I already have access to spec chat.

Not a bad showing for my first time being scum, I hope. Sawneeks can attest that I was stressed out like mad on occasion there. I probably flubbed that last day, but I just didn't see a way to talk my way out of that lynch anymore.
 
Scum chat is fun though. And being scum is enlightening. You don't realize how eager town is to tear each other apart like rabid dogs until you are watching from the the outside.

Welcome, Sky,

You put up a good fight. Just a run of some (insanly) bad luck with not getting consistent night kills, unfortunately.
 
I am rooting for them!

As far as night kills go, though, we really should have gone with my suggestion of killing Kimberly night 3. It would have changed the game by sheer coincidence.

Agreed. If only we had.
 
Thank you for the game, @Sawneeks and @melonrabbit

I was honestly a bit iffy on the idea of a costume game at first, but I ended up having immense amounts of fun with it. I loved it.
I actually never really tried to guess player's identities past the first phase. I glanced at the sign-ups once during D1, but eventually forgot who was or wasn't on the list. Treating each costume as a "new entity" was really fun, and I think it actually helped me not get caught up in some of the meta traps I usually fall for.

The flavor was a delight as well. There were a quite a few times when it made me laugh out loud.

My only regret is not living long enough to roleplay as Fandorin pretending that Skull was myself, relying on that post they made about being sure of my identity. It would've been my magnum opus.

Here's pictures of some of the notes I took to prove how into it I was :P

So glad you had fun Brazil. You're impressions were a joy to follow along with and guess who Zack would be each day.

No worries, Sky! I think you did alright for your first Scum game and survived much longer than a lot of new Scum players do. Unfortunately the last Day Phase I'm not sure if you could have gotten out of it just by how the conversation was going. Town this time really stuck with vote records and it's hard to argue those.

That sweet feeling of catching scum!Monkey.


Oh man

You went and caught 2 Scum Players. Kimberly assured Monkey's lynch but your whole case against her was perfect and shifted people's view. Not to mention the great recaps and hilarious roleplay shenanigans. You are definitely one of my MVPs this game. <3
 
It's a little wierd seeing town ascribe insidious timing to my self-hammer when the reality was that I did as soon as I got caught up in the game after stepping away for a few hours. If I was more diligent, I would have hammered as soon as the opportunity arose.

That was the second time I have self-hammered, I believe. The first occasion was much more ill-advised.

Top work Brazil!

Yeah Brazil if you can roleplay as Sawneeks why ever do anything else...

Fair enough, haha.

And thank you :)
I was happy when you noticed the D1 roleplay and brought it up, hahaha
I swear that was literally the most me thing I did and I almost regretted it because I was trying so hard to hide.

I had fun using your Lazy Town pic too. You gave me the idea to do it, in fact.
 

Sawneeks

Oof, that claim got blown apart real fast. RIP.

Yeah, it got killed really fast. Unfortunate too since it looked like White Ranger was the lynch target for most.

You can really use a universal back-up to copy a Celebrity? I didn't even consider that.

Probably? Don't think we've ever had a true universal back-up in a game yet.

For Skull's actual power he would have copied it, yes. Though it would not have confirmed him Town. :p
 

cabot

Why.
Struggling to see the scum motivation for Skull's claim, but it's far too messy to keep him alive.

I see him at best as a neutral.

I laughed when someone looked at that and said they knew who you were, as if it’d ever be that easy hahaha

So glad you had fun Brazil. You're impressions were a joy to follow along with and guess who Zack would be each day.
You’re way too kind :)

Oh man, you freaking had me. Would never have guessed Zack was you.

Before I found out who Zordon was, I thought you were Zordon XD.

Well played man.
Sorry for circling back and lynching you that day, hahaha. I should’ve stayed the course, but that D2 Jason vote on Trini was too much :(

Oh wow <3

Since it was your game I had to show up properly, hahaha
 
That’s an interesting claim, and even though Billy seems concerned about the timing of it, I think it made sense. You can’t really go “Why did you not claim before?” when this is the first time Skull is under the spotlight.

If that is a scum self hammer to end the game then it is lacking in style

Congrats town and Faddy! I didn’t get to read it as closely as I wanted, but it was enjoyable when I could.
