And this is what I am curious about. In more than just this game I've had people vote based on occam and it just hasn't turned out. I just think the nature of mafia doesn't lend itself to useful occam application. Still interested in knowing others' thoughts.

Eh, a lot of people don't play scum at the level where Occam's Razor
should
be thrown out the window, i.e. doing things because "WHY WOULD SCUM EVER DO THAT?" So Occam's Razor is a way to weed out all the mental gymnastics and go with what makes the most amount of sense.

If you've ever seen a cc situation where the scum is just making the craziest assertions to get out of being caught in the 1v1, you've seen a situation where people
should
be using it.

I think that's definitely the problem with using it too often. Especially if you are dealing with good scum or inexperienced town.

Well played, scum.

I actually think the scum team of this game played it really well - the impressive PR hunting and the daring CC gambit by copper suggest really excellent play. Do the players think the scum deserve a nom for Best Scum Team?

Copper does. Math kinda blew it right before he flaked, and I just followed copper's lead for the most part.

I've made that nomination here. Please read and second/third/nth if you agree.

I want to point out I didn't nominate the scum team because I love them. I did it because I hates them and I wants them to have to wear the badge of shame for an entire year to warn future generations of townies.
