So yeah. Simple question. Generally speaking, when do scum have a tendency to be really scummy/make slips/etc? Elaborate on your choice.

In post 1, Vi wrote:
Also, somewhere between early-earlygame and earlygame. Scums are actually scummier midgame but by then you've conditioned yourself not to notice.


sort of agree with the conditioning part

The poll is pretty inconclusive so far. -______-

Its interesting that opinions are so diverse on the matter. I dont think the poll is flawed; I think I was rather reasonable in the way I seperated the different parts of a game. I think its more of an indicator of how varied everyone's ideas on scumtheory are. Also note not one person selected the lylo option.

I think Mastin's lategame argument holds a lot of weight, thinking about it. And I was a RVS/earlygame kinda guy.
