Scum Thread The Top Shelf

The more I am thinking about it the more I like a Ty kill.

If Stan is the doctor, he isn't likely to protect Ty, so we can use the RB on someone else.
Ty isn't likely to get protected anyway, I think it's more likely to be Chuggs, Launch or Sneeks.
Ty's flip makes EC, Stan and Sneeks look worse.
Ty isn't likely the cop for reasons previously explained but he could be the tracker or doctor.

I can do the kill again. I think I'm pretty townread. Stan said I was n/a and Ty said I could be scum, but he seemed like he wanted to go for Sneeks first. Even if he tracks me he shouldn't get his track results, because kill comes before track in the order of operations. Maybe this game is different because of the night chats, idk.
 
I'm gonna be away for day start tomorrow, visiting my parents, so I'd prefer to put commands in either tonight or tomorrow morning.

I'm gonna post in the night chat letting everyone know I'll be away as well "assuming I live" lol. I'll probably post that tomorrow morning

Probably won't be around much for night chat, will post one in the morning.
Will give night commands I thought. I think kill and roleblock both make sense tonight given we're intact and not necessarily made just yet.
3 main factors for night kill IMO:
Potential cop, potential doctor, usefulness in vote tomorrow.

Okay, okay. Everyone, who do you NOT want to kill today. Just to make it easier seeing where we all are.

I do not want to kill:
Chuggs
Hedin
EC
Stan

I think they might be protected:
Saw

I can be convinced on the rest.
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
Pretty similar for me

Don't kill:
Chuggs
Launch
EC
Stan?

Maybe:
Sneeks?

Good chance to hit PR:
Hedin
Ty

Could move Stan to maybe but I kinda want hint at misinterpreting his read of me as a cop crumb in night chat.
 
I do not want to kill:
Chuggs
Hedin
EC

Saw

Yeah pretty similar here. With the way night chat is going I think we can swing things to EC or Hedin, maybe even Stan tomorrow.

ain't no law when you're drinking the claw
the twist part is kinda mothglarethink
what if the twist is that some town died come back to life, and thats why there isnt a spec chat
 

FateShirou

ain't no law when you're drinking the claw
<.<

Why you do this Fate
something is going to happen
monkey is a expert at making games
myabe stan is a reviver? we RB'd stan N1. This is N2. if someone wakes up alive, then we know stan got something to do with it
 

FateShirou

ain't no law when you're drinking the claw
scum usually make around 15% of the players at game start, the fact we were above 25% just shows that there has to be some reviival mech for town
with the amount of VTs, there either is a player role that does that or monkey will intervene
 

Verelios

Were-elios
We really have no possible defense against that =(. Let's take it one step at a time and see what monkey has to twist.
 
I don't think reviving is a Normal mechanic. This game just feels to me like, what if the scum team is big but weak. Our best ability is a roleblock which can be hard to use and is only 2 shots. No strongman, no godfather, no ninja. Just a BP presumably to protect from the vig and 2 goons. I don't think there's necessarily cause for alarm yet.
 
I'm gonna do this so I don't forget:

Kill: Ty4on

Open to changing it. I think Launch would be a good kill but I'm wary of protection.
 
Oh also another reason why 11 town 4 scum is balanced is because confirmed town can post still after they die, at night. They don't even need to revive to hurt us.

That's not even getting to the fact we don't know the whole setup. There could be a really powerful doctor role, for example.

PlayerCop?Doctor?Support for ML?
HedinMight have checked me n1 unless Fran/Launch, prob not?could beChuggs, Launch
Stanblocked, possible.Blocked, possible.EC, Chuggs?, Sneeks?
Typrob not, should have got green on Sneekscould bealmost none?
ECshould not be unless bluffing on chex.
Should have had green on launch.
I don't think so given willingness to go out, feels more VTHedin, most of town - Launch
Sawneekswould have checked Francould be, although might have protected thornyTy
 

Verelios

Were-elios
Aight, choices, choices.

We can block Saw, Stan, Hedin. I don't think EC is a good pick regardless of what he claims. Pick your poison today. Saw could have checked Fran too if she was cop, just that he was dead dead by morning.
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
Haven't done the full homework on that one it's mostly from skimming and some assumptions.
Ty makes the most sense to keep options open. Stan makes sense for possiblity of PR but is less townread.

I think kill doctor block cop would be ideal, but if kill isn't doc we should block doc if we can.

Sneeks was wondering about EC as cop in way that seemed genuine, could have been fishing to counter but I'm not sure - felt more like info starved town.

Assuming kill on Ty, I would rank

Cop: Stan = Hedin > Sneeks > EC
Doc: Stan = Hedin > Sneeks > EC

Double blocking Stan gives him no chance to claim or protect.
Similar with Hedin, who might have a green check but likely a useless one.
I'd say block whoever we are more hopeful to vote?
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
cop!Hedin is 50/50 to check me or EC. I feel like he would lean EC but it is a risk.
cop!Stan might check Ty or Hedin.
 
If Hedin is cop he probably checked Launch N1 which ended up being useless.

If Stan is the cop I see him checking Ty tonight because he was really gung-ho about voting him off and only switched when the wagon wasn't taking off.

I'd rather block Hedin than block Stan again. If Hedin is a power role and gets a red check of some kind that would be bad news for tomorrow. I feel like probability wise it's more likely you block at least one person if you do two different players, rather than betting on one player definitely having an ability and then getting blocked twice, but idk.

With EC, after that whole chex fiasco, he put Sneeks as lock-town. Is that an indicator he's a cop? I'm worried he's just bluffing to try and draw a night kill.

I think it would be Hedin > Stan > Sneeks > EC for me for blocking.

This makes a lot of sense in terms of priority. Hedin it is then.

Block: Hedin

Ugh EC as cop with a green check on Sneeks is technically possible and would be annoying. Explains his willingness to basically double her vote today.
That said not sure why he visited here and not Launch or Stan.
Seems like he would visit Stan, Fate or me tonight if he was.

Worst case for us is Stan, Hedin or EC claiming cop with a red check on one of us.
2nd worst case would be one of those but with a green check on one of the others.

What we have (kill Ty, block Hedin) seems like best we can do barring any night chat shenanigans.

Yep, this is very much the time to gamble. We'll see if we're lucky or not. At worst we get caught and die, but we're at a good time to do so. Me and you are linked, Fate and Random are solidly alone. We can take a long approach either way.

If I or Wizard get caught out->the other might get caught. That's 2 days, 3 if we can deflect. 10 alive-6 town, 4 scum

8 alive, 5 town, 3 scum
6 alive, 4 town, 2 scum

Worst case scenario is still pretty good for us so long as Random and Fate keep a lookout.

Potential scum team composition:

The deep wolf: Vere, Rando?, Sneeks?? Vere >> Rando > Sneeks

The coaster: Ty, Hedin, Stan? Ty > Hedin >> Stan

The distraction: Fate or EC. Fate > EC.

I like what Haw said about not dropping Fate/EC but think we need to take our time and consider partners too.
Possible night chat post, not sure if is too harsh on scum mates here? Would be setting up to start on Fate with the ability to shift to Hedin with Ty gone. Can go for Stan if anyone else claims cop.

It's a good post, I wouldn't worry about it being too hard.

i think this game is just the loudest people rolled scum
I don't know about everybody else but I've been having a blast so far haha.
This was a stacked roster, there were a lot of very strong potential scum teams. i like this one though :D

Wondering when town will realize that plainly stating who they like for the next days vote is advantageous to scum.

Sneeks bold underlining a scummy post of mine uh oh

This team has been stellar. We really are rounding off all the best town positions.

On the bright side if there was going to be anyone bringing people back to life Corpse Reviver would be the drink to do it.

i still think you guys should buss me and set urselfs up for a long game, (like 5-6 days)
 
I just got home.

Seems like we mass claiming. I'm gonna claim vanilla. There's like no power roles in this game, I think getting cute will backfire.

I'm gonna go for a shower irl before I make my appearance in the thread.
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
Mass claim is an excellent town play. Chuggs if you're reading this post game, fair play.

Our advantages:
- We can coordinate
- Town thinks there's 3 of us
- Rando gets to go last
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
Okay EC and Stan are out there. One doc, one vanilla town.

I think 1-2 vanilla town make sense. Thinking one counter claim on town protect or town investigate as well
 
I would not counter claim a protect or invest. We only need a single mis-elim today and we win.

Unless you mean claiming an additional role? So like claiming Bodyguard even though we have a doc already. I suppose that could work.
 
So...could there be a tracker...

Hmmm, should I claim marg checker? Does that sound weird?
Marg checker is kinda weird depending on if there's a lot of margheritas. You'd think there would only be one.

Maybe a shaken/stirred checker instead? Like if a drink is one or the other. Or like a bitters checker? Something like that
 
Oh we need only one mis-elim?
VTs and Rando counter claims doctor, we push Stan over Rando?
There's 10 people alive. We get 1 mis-elim, 9 people. We kill anyone (assuming Stan is telling the truth and doesn't have a protect) and we win.

I would not get frisky now unless we want to play the long game and all bus someone.
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
I could just claim bulletproof, I did crumb it.

We need Hedin, Stan or EC as the ML.
EC if there's too many VTs.
Stan if we can get a more believable counter claim on the doctor.
Hedin - we could try to intercept but it's him or Sneeks as the cop
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
Sorry not trying to create panic, I'm afk on the main thread and so is Rando to some degree so I think we're fine there.
Btw let's spread out our return to the thread so it doesn't look too coordinated.

Uh, the thing would be I'd have to know if they were shaken or stirred.

I could claim I tried Stan N1 and got no result and Random N2 and got shaken? How is that?

Actually no, then I would have to explain why I didn't say there was a RB.

Oh, I could say one of the VT are lying because I got RBed!

Yeah, I'll be waiting for Fate to claim 1st which matches my tone.

ok so i claim VT, vere claims favour cop, rando claims something and wizard claims bulletpoof

I would be wary of saying you checked me because if you flip it links us, but that sounds good otherwise.

I think Chuggs and Launch will be pretty sus of any "Dog Sniffer" type roles from experience.
 
Also there's a part of me that's concerned Stan is actually playing us with the even night doc and if you say you got roleblocked Stan will go, actually, I got roleblocked N1
 

The Wizard

Confidently Incorrect
I think Vere will get booted if Sneeks is some other type of cop though? Or do you think flavor + alignment is possible?
 
Also also Chuggs seems to be very deep in my pocket so I'm hesitant to do anything to link us that could backfire

Could you say you checked Shirou or Wiz instead?
