What are the odds that both scum teams block the game person out of what would've been 35 candidates and watcher watches the same slot in his pool of 41?

Astronomical, imo.

If it's random then yes. If it's a town player that has been aggressive and interesting, then less random. Though obv boem was more anticipating a shot instead of a block there,

Boem has a good start, and he's still in the game, so he could still make up the difference, but for the moment I think Cookie is still ahead.

You were still annoying as anything, mind you, especially day one before you had any guilties. And even after I was lynched, I thought you were red scum for quite a while.

But you
did
find a surprisingly large amount of scum. (Starting with me, which was a bit unfortunate...)

You're certainly streets ahead of the Vigilante. (I don't think he's hit scum once yet, has he?)

If all three selections are truly random, then it comes out to 29 in 50225. Or close to one in 1730. Of course, interactions between players make it significantly less random than that.

Boem caught Boring doing a kill. I told you guys super early in the game Boring was scum. Scum hunting > investigative guilty. :-)

You tunnelled on me, day one, before you had any actual evidence. That's the major reason. (Day two's tunnelling was even more annoying, but there you actually had evidence, so I can't really complain too much)

Yeah, and if people were actually looking at my ISO and analysing it properly, knowing that I am scum, they should by now have picked up at least one of my as yet un-picked-up scumbuddies.

The fact that no-one's picked him up yet suggests that scumhunting isn't really much more powerful than random guesswork. This holds doubly on day one.

Titus does make mistakes and tunnel townies, but since I've joined the site I've been almost constantly in a game with Titus, and there has been a dramatic improvement in that. She still is way too touchy on anything she thinks is role fishing and she still has a bias with certain people where even when the evidence they are town is overwhelming she will still be scumspecting them (I am one of those people, so I'm well aware), but like ... anyone who has been paying attention to Titus over the last year or so will underestimate her at their peril.

What makes you think I'm a "doctor"?? Why not a VT? A non-consecutive nights hider/commuter? Or even -as Thor pointed out- the SK??
Also, you do realize Drixx (the flipped town doctor) was in my neighbourhood, right? So 2 doctors in the neighbourhood? Or a doctor and a nurse of opposite alignments?? Or... I mean.. what exactly leads you to specify DOCTOR here??

Also, a scum doctor who was trying to take a bullet at night instead of the town doctor?? I mean, I did mention it in the hood and -for some odd reason- Drixx decided to put it out on air in the main thread that I told him I was going to try and get shot to save the town PRs including himself. That would work for scum if this was single ball, but to say that and then he outs it in multi-ball is .. erm.. inexplicable??!!

Now the thing that annoys me the most: You've now explicitly said that my case on Math does make sense, but you're adamant on pushing on Thor based on a weak theory of me-him being linked together?? You mean you want to go after a conditional lynch over one that you admit to be a "decent" one???

Yeah, on D1 there was evidence. If someone is taking both sides of an issue, that to me IS evidence of scuminess. It's why Shiro and I copped you.

D2 was tunnelling as evidence, laying crumbs to get your partners to talk, then springing the guilty. The lack of subtlety came from the guilties already in play and the fact that subtlety has never ever ever been my strong suit.

The evidence against you may not have felt like evidence (common gripe I have) but I view evidence differently than most.
