Btw wrt the Cyrus thing there's two comments I have about that.

1. i've seen scum consider or pm their partners for lurking in olden games
2. it's common decency for people still in the game not to use that stuff. (it's not as hard as it sounds either.)

You cannot communicate outside game threads. PMing counts as that. IT is a rules violation, pure and simple.

Exactly and that's my point

Fortunately Wagon and Spangled didn't get to the point of considering the OOG info. But it could've been terrible.

Unfortunately not really, what he meant is that if it happens to be a newbie scum + SE scum, then the SE scum will usually warn the newbie scum to avoid certain things in the PT.

One of the unfortunate things with the pace of newbie games is it means many newbies start playing in main queue without ever having rolled scum or having worked on their scum game. Not a lot of elegant ways of dealing with that problem though.
Eh, I disagree. But Im not sharing now. Ask this after the game and I will share a few things I have seen and thought were strong.
I thought this was awesome.

My general advice is to ignore your information. Play your game as you normally play it. Push who you would normally push. If that winds up being your partner, ok, you're bussing! If not, all the better. Playing that way allows you to be tonally pure, to meta-defend, and to not have to worry about slips/being caught in a lie. But I've only rolled scum once, so take that for exactly what its worth.

Oooh spicy

Lemme say that in a 2p scum team my opinion is to play with the group in mind.

Have one guy drive mislynches and the other guy set up for endgame.

If there's one guy who seems to be doing everything he could actually just be town

Also don't be afraid to be "too towny"

Just prepare a justification for not dying

i cant tell you

how to see me

chennisden · Post Post #2553 (isolation #10) » Wed Jul 31, 2019 8:16 am

the solution is dont pm people

chennisden · Post Post #2554 (isolation #11) » Wed Jul 31, 2019 8:16 am

who did cyrus PM? redflavor?

chennisden · Wed Jul 31, 2019 10:30 am

This is a problem with the newbie setup tbh

Scum screwed up a couple of times yes but town screwed up a lot more

The standard of play shouldn't be for scum to play perfectly and town to throw or else town gets a free win

Town played decently scum played exceptionally though
