How familiar are you with math?
In a normal game, it takes two mislims to make up for one scum death, pretty sure.
12 alive, 4 scum, at a rate of one elimination to one nightkill, it goes,
one mislim, one kill; 10 alive, 4 scum;
second mislim, second kill; 8 alive, 4 scum.
Now do that with a scum lim thrown in.
10 alive, 3 scum;
One mislim, one kill;
8 alive, 3 scum;
Second mislim, second kill; 6 alive, 3 scum.
Now do that with a second scum lim thrown in.
10 alive, 3 scum.
8 alive, 2 scum.
One mislim, one kill;
6 alive, 2 scum.
Second mislim, 4 alive, 2 scum.
Now do that with a third scum lim thrown in.
8 alive, 2 scum.
6 alive, 1 scum.
One mislim, one kill;
4 alive, 1 scum;
Second mislim, 2 alive 1 scum.
Seems consistent, right? Two mislims regardless.
Okay but remove the nightkill, and suddenly it gets a whole lot worse.
12 alive, 4 scum.
One mislim, no kill.
11 alive, 4 scum.
Second mislim, 4 scum.
10 alive, 4 scum.
Third mislim, 4 scum.
The earliest lylo is 9 alive, 4 scum, requiring 4 mislims to win.
Alright so if it takes 4 mislims to win.
Well then what happens if you remove a scum?
11 alive, 3 scum.
One mislim, no kill.
10 alive, 3 scum.
Second mislim, 3 scum.
9 alive, 3 scum.
Third mislim, 3 scum.
8 alive, 3 scum.
Fourth mislim, 3 scum.
7 alive, the new lylo, means it now requires a total of five mislims to win. Five, instead of four.
Well then what happens if you remove a second scum?
10 alive, 2 scum.
One mislim, no kill.
9 alive, 2 scum.
Second mislim, no kill.
8 alive, 2 scum. Third mislim, no kill.
7 alive, 2 scum. Fourth mislim, no kill.
6 alive, 2 scum. Fifth mislim, no kill.
Lylo at 5 alive then requires a sixth mislim for scum to win. Six, instead of four.
And if you removed a third?
9 alive, 1 scum.
One mislim, no kill.
8 alive, 1 scum. Mislim #2.
7 alive, 1 scum. Mislim #3.
6 alive, 1 scum. Mislim #4.
5 alive, 1 scum. Mislim #5.
4 alive, 1 scum. Mislim #6.
3 alive, 1 scum. It takes a final mislim to win. Seven mislims.
(I'm sorry thsi could have been done faster and more better, but brain dead right now.)
Bussing in a nightless game is a high-risk no-reward play.
So like.
I
could

But I really don't think I
would

Not after King's Landing especially.
To win a scumgam requires power-efforting and bussing requires power-efforting to give a
chance
at winning. It's muc heasier to defend buddies than to bus and hope YOUR vote which was a bus was more town than any of the OTHER voters (when it often isn't).
