Your math doesn't look right.

6 choose 2 ways of choosing 2 scum from 6 Newbies
9 choose 2 ways of choosing 2 scum from all players

6C2/9C2 = 42% probability of scum being between newbies

58% chance of at least one scum in the 3 SEs.

Everyone has an equal chance of rolling scum. I don’t see anything more to it.

Ah crap I thought the day ended, this is a massive turn of events, I might need some time to read through Hockey's posts and readjust my position on their slot, and also kenny when they do post after this, but I'll be sure to do it quick before the prod range time, like Dorsey said

Ok after reading Grandpa'a ISO one more fking time since its so god damm confusing, I am formally declaring him as a TL. This is a meta read since ive played with gpa a fair bit on other sites and this aligns with his town meta(dont let him fool u by saying his town meta is to be pro-town, cuz its not)

been saying that and they end up doing so (they post it with this purple font, if you miss it), I still have a feeling that they might be but I usually wait until day 2 to really start sussing seemingly inactive people cause they're LHF until then

You haven’t really left any hard clues as to whom you think is mafia. Someone before had characterised your playstyle as defensive, a statement I can agree with. Voting out a townie, as a principle, is not beneficial for town. TL did say that they strongly believe me being scum for some vaguely specified reason. If they’re town, they apparently are willing to sacrifice themselves to make their point. So, assuming that TL is scum and you are voted out Day Two, being town, what benefit would it bring?
a brownie point for you, keeping my one eye on you still

it is very interesting that this is the same four people that Dorsey were focusing on, either by voting them or asking people on their opinion like on post 178

An interesting tidbit, about 40% of Uhuh's post (until 375) is a reply to Dorsey. 44% if you count post 59. Almost half. Curious

The difference between TL and Greeting for me was Greeting's Post 96 and our interaction thereafter, as expressed in my Post 131. I thought Greeting was being exploitative and deceitful by accusing me of being desperate and then, when I asked him to cite where I was desperate, recanting in Post 118. Then, in Post 120, he said he was voting me because I had the most posts. I also had the most votes, so it was all very opportunistic to me. TL the Legend (much like his predecessors) just didn't post.
