Trying to think if there are any Normal town-aligned roles that might have setup foreknowledge.
There's Mason, but Mason wouldn't have info on the number of scum or scumteams in the game. Same with Neighbor or Neighborizer.
Outside of those I don't think there's anyone and I don't think there's Informed roles in Normals?Show"When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist." -Helder Camara

All of my workings out thus far have been examples. Of course I don't know how this forum works as to faction ratios, so you'll have to forgive me for that, so if somebody would to be so kind at to post a normal ratio, I would be very grateful!In post 106, Ircher wrote:

You have voted to lynch Pine, which is all well and done, at this point in the game, 99% of the votes, won't have any ulterior motive behind them whatsoever, which is fine, if you don't have any main reason to be voting for Pine. However, you have currently created a contradiction, when trying to prove that your vote on Pine is legit, and has reasoning. The main problem with it, is as below:
You are claiming that it is very unlikely, for both you and Pine to both be scum in the same game, however the roles are chosen randomly, and I believe in a random order. So just for the sake of it, lets say we had 10 towns in this game, and 9 scum, it is unlikely but go with it. If Pine was first to get a role, then you, there'd still be a high chance of you both being scum:In post 60, TheRealGin-N-Tonic wrote:It might be one-sided on Pine's side considering he's only made one post showing he's online but stopped saying anything afterwards, however on my end, to give you context to the vote, I recently played a game as an IC and Pine had day talk as scum and manipulated me throughout the game till I sided with him in LyLo and lost the game for town and said I'd vote Pine every game we play together that has daytalk.
I'd love to be able to tell mods in advance what roles to give Pine and I but the likelihood of me playing a game with Pine and I on opposite factions to set up a grudge vote scum theatre just for this game IF we both happened to roll scum would be a god like miracle. However, as much as I wish that was actually true, it is literally a close to impossible scenario, ergo the most logical conclusion is to not treat it as such and wait for more substance throughout the thread before you think you honestly caught 2/X scums when you're already wrong about at least 1 of them.
For Pine to be Scum: 9/19
If Pine is Scum, For Gin to be scum: 8/18
Therefore, For both to be Scum: Roughly 21/100
So it wouldn't be a 'god like miracle', ever.
Also another thing, when voting for somebody, you might thing they are suspicious or whatever. Therefore I have a question for you. If you are wanting to vote Pine, and argue for the vote on Pine, why are you suggesting he might not be scum via the 'when you're already wrong about at least 1 of them'???
UNVOTE: Alisae
VOTE: TheRealGin-N-Tonic
4-5 scum is a more logical coonclusion for the scum ratio. 9 scum in a 19p NORMAL game has probably a 1 in a Million chance AT BEST. (Most likely, there is a 0 zero chance of that happening cuz that makes Day 1 LyLo and could still screw town w/ a perfect game if it's multiball)
4/19 * 3/18 = 12 / (152 + 190) = 12 / 342 = 4 / 114 = 2 / 57 or <4% chance.
VOTE: Debi
Also, I don't think that any of it is 'totally useless nonsense'. I wanted to pressurise Gin so I did, everything in there is completely logical to be honest, he did contradict himself, by saying that Pine might be innocent even though he voted for Pine. Which of course is true, you vote somebody either for a reaction, for a joke, or because you think they are scum. We can rule out that it was for a reaction, as he has stuck to the basis of his vote for a while now, trying to prove it was a good vote. If it was for a joke, and not for a reaction, then he wouldn't have gone so far as to prove his point to us, regarding his vote. Therefore, it must have been because he thinks or thought, that Pine is scum. Therefore if you think somebody is scum, try to get people to think that they are also scum, then suggest they are town, is contradictory.
PS: I'd still like the answer for the question Gin:

Lol Debi, You don't get the context as to why it's actually a god like miracle and because you opened to the door to the maths, let's do it. (I'll also go over your other concerns but let me have some fun here)

Eh, yeah it could be a "culture shock" kind of thing since we know her regular forum isn't dedicated to the game like this one is, and so we don't know how they make setups or if they're balanced or what.In post 127, Creature wrote:I think Debi just made a dumb assumption rather than showing actual knowledge.Show"When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint.

Creature if it was A ratio of Town:Scum:Other it would probably be 7:6:6:
So it would be:
For pine to be scum: 6/19
If Pine is Scum, For Gin to be Scum: 5/18
For both it is roughly 1/11:
Meaning there is a 1/11 chance they are both Scum, but of course it is just a hypothesis.

I'm the one getting called out for 'Over thinking'
The entire probability part of my post was solely to prove that it wouldn't be a 'god like miracle', it hasn't been to prove that somebody is or isn't Scum. I haven't claimed anybody as Scum yet, only listed that I am suspicious of people. By suspicious, I mean that I currently or once thought, that they were or are not town.
Also to quote myself:
'So just for the sake of it, lets say we had 10 towns in this game, and 9 scum,'
Doesn't that tell you that it was just an example. I have no idea if it 10:9 or anything. At the time when I did it, it was due to the fact I didn't know if there was a 3rd faction or not. the 10 and the 9 are merely random numbers I chose.- Creature

It's a possibility (and right now, Wraith's leap is a lot scummier than Debi's assumptions), but it is still a pretty far-fetched assumption to make, esp. when it's part of the reasoning for voting someone.In post 127, Creature wrote:I think Debi just made a dumb assumption rather than showing actual knowledge.- Debi
