i've fucked up with them before as scum
Distancing is an art form. I try not to do that unless it feels organic. Like I recently read a game where scum!NK15 scumread his entire team and got them all elimed after he flipped.

You really fooled me in Radja’s Story. I don’t know if you remember that game?

I’m frequently lost in larges regardless of alignment which is frustrating.
In post 178, SirCakez wrote:actually Gamma/nancy it might be better if we oppose each other here I think
I’m nervous about that because I don’t want us to be perceived in anyway as linked post-flip.
that's why we could do a 1v1 ya?
I honestly think it’s better not too. We can argue but not obvious distance. Noraa mainly lost Death Curse because her entire team hardbussed her. I think she probably would have won otherwise.
The best way to distance imo is to treat your buddies like they’re not actually your buddies. This way, when one scum flips, it’s antispew.
Or you maybe pull a Mastina - I still haven’t figured out how to do this ftr - but she got my slot miselimed in a previous game by making my slot look like her buddy.

I neglected to mention that Mastina also set herself up to be elimed to make her buddy sheep look good.
So they did the typical good cop/bad cop thing wrt my slot. She locktowned my slot (I repped in for nsg) and sheep hardpushed me.

Granted it's made House townread me but still. Now I'm stuck here.
Problem for us is that Wheme’s most recent posting is looking really scummy. Unless he does something very soon to reverse that, I don’t think Romance will get elimed first.
He started off not too bad but I’d probably want to vote him for his recent posting.
I think Cakez is pretty good now, so I will probably vote Wheme if he doesn’t pick it up. If he does, I can probably get away with Romance.
I should probably post that in the main thread. I probably sound townier in the scum pt.

I would obviously prefer Romance but Wheme objectively doesn’t look great rn. He hardpushes reads as town, so he needs to try to replicate that.

Huh this actually makes a lot of sense as to why I’ve been feeling off in some of my recent towngames despite my newer playstyle feeling functional
I’m letting good cop/bad cop tactics screw with my head
Well glad that helped. When I first started playing mafia and never rolled scum until I played at least 25+ games, one scumteam actually traded roles with one voting me D1 and the other voting elsewhere and reversing it on D2.

In post 201, Gamma Emerald wrote:There’s an article Raybells wrote about bussing well and I think the game he cited that I was in is a very good example of distancing as a team
There was special circumstances via me replacing out and back in midway through, which allowed me to persist in pushing my buddy but also having leeway to eventually dial back
Distancing works best that way if one scum takes the fall early. That’s exactly what happened in Gameshow. He did a coordinated bus of his teammate who effectively distanced him but that sort of thing massively fails like it did in that game with NK15 and Peta and to some extent in Xenoblade. He bussed that buddy D1 but not the rest of his team, so no associatives.

oh mannnn toog could get really bodied if we can sew the right threads regarding the scum BG role
like, scum BG wouldn't really do much without a raid reward like the "nightkill immune for the next night" thing toog described, we could paint that as him knowing of scum bg once that role flips
as such both me/nancy and cakez have to do our very best to NOT TOWNSPEW TOOG

I kinda just tripped on a banana peel I laid down myself by engaging the StD vote, I tripped the Wise Man's Snare tell in a way by doing that, I can likely argue my way out but I wouldn't be at all surprised if that becomes the end of me

But I said you were more like Doubles’ Cakez than CoD Cakes, so why would I?
Lack of consistency in progression of reads is the #1 way I catch scum when I’m town.

Creating fake associative tells, it’s better than distancing.
Generally distancing usually is most effective when teammates are genuinely upset with each other which is obviously not fun.
I’ve lost count how many games I’ve been deathtunnelled as town by town and people thought we were either buddies or TvT.
I get your point but voting you after I said I thought you were like Doubles’ Cake would look seriously scummy because I would have to explain why I changed my mind on that and I can’t.
I need to maintain that read or it will be seen as a scumclaim because I wouldn’t do that as town. As town, my reads are always organic and I need to try replicate that as scum.
Ank taught me that in my first scumgame that she caught me because my progression on her slot didn’t make sense coming from a townie mindset and she was 100% right about that.

Pretty sure Mirio is beeboy, he emanates the exact obvtown wavelength I know him for as town + there was his joke about “Ms. Fox”
Obviously keep this under the table unless you can fake your own realization (which some of you probably wouldn’t have the experience with him to do so, Cakez is the only one who might)
I wish she’d just out it. If it is us, I don’t want to spew. Well, next time she acts weird as town in a game, we’ll know she’s PR. I wish we rb’d her instead of Bell. :/
Oh well.
I think we should kill Sakura tonight and roleblock Romance because Sakura will protect her and find out we have a strongman.
And you should probably throw out some scummy town name. You saying you know who the guilty is on and not saying anything might look suss if you don’t guess someone.
If I ask you, you should probably hint at some scummy townie.

cakez role can be passed unlimited times (until we're all dead that is) so we can pass to wheme without risking losing the roleblocker if he goes soon after
