"last time I was scum with Firebringer
his first post in the scum PT was "yes I rolled scum!"
I decided to post "haha just don't post that in the main thread", but to get up to date on the main thread first.

Oh holy shit 2iam you're right
he legit said he didn't feel like posting because he'd sound scummy in the mafia pt
but my question for you now is how is he not trying here?

Because he's focusing on my meta rather than actually what's happening in the game. "TIAM is annoying" etc.

That's pretty close to what he did in the scum game where he basically stayed alive by saying my arguments were NAI.

nos- i thought about that but with 4
in the neighborhood and 4 to 6 scum in the faction i doubt it
that scenario would be more of a concern with a bigger neighborhood
of course we have not seen any flips yet so i can only guess at the balance of the game

but i think we can all agree that at least one of the following is true
- scum are in the neighborhood
- scum currently have daytalk

p-edit
i am seriously missing some context here and that sounds interesting so i am going to reread the last few pages

as town won 5 games | lost 6 games | mislimd 3 times | dayvigged once | nightkilled 3 times | vengekilled once | survived 3 times
as scum won 5 games | lost 1 game | eliminated twice | dayvigged once | vigged once | survived once | perfect scum victory once
and if you count large normal 204 then i won that game after replacing out as scum

((Voice of the faux IC: Provable randomness is usually banned, considered tantamount to cheating. Given how you narrowed the choices before the dice tags you're probably okay, but you're best off using different strategies))
the fact that it is usually banned is partially the reason why i did it
because there has been some discussion over why it is banned and one of the best ways to help shed light on that is to see how it can be used in a game

I wasn’t active during that game at all, so that’s blatant misrepping. I was pretty inactive sitewide during said time Two is talking about.
And he says i didn’t try hard that game, but that’s the same game that Gamma, myself, were in 3p lylo in. I tried so hard that game.

if you want explanations just ask, focused more on catching up than typing all my thoughts out
I am curious about what part of gamma's post gave you a scum vibe.

I'm curious about this as well, as far as I can tell firebringer was just throwing around votes and suspicions to see what reasoning people provide for agreeing with him.

Verifiable randomness is bad, mkay? Splitting it between your two suspicions isn't really random to me so much as showing that you think either or both of them need to die, but if you had rolled like a D20 then I'd be voting you for it.

Masons.

All joking aside though, scum don't have daytalk. How do you propose resolving this statement?
we already have a neighborhood
so i have one question
does the neighborhood have daytalk
Yes they do.

@Flavor Are you denying you specifically said you wouldn't post for a time because you thought you'd look scummy in that game?

"I'm busy" is his scum meta specifically. Then he responds when accused and tries to use the "I'm boon and I'm awesome and don't deserve to be lynched" excuse.

Seriously? Doesn't he enjoy playing scum? Why would he always put off scumgames if he enjoyed them?

I'm not a psychologist but I'm guessing because it's worked for him in the past.

from my [albeit] limited experience with boon i do have to agree that this feels more like busy as opposed to lacking motivation
not that i agree with either being boon or flavor leafs scum meta

nictis- i am in fact well aware of the fact that provable randomness is usually banned
and am also aware of much of the discussion about that fact

tldr for anyone who has no idea what i am talking about
will be in my next post [and in a spoiler] because i do have actual game-relevant text in this post

Nah, but it’s not like I was actively avoiding the game.

Was more of a...”you know, I’m not caught up right now, busy in real life, I’m just gonna lurk this out.”

I prefer not doing that as scum because it puts me in a spot like I did in that game. That’s the first time I’ve been in 3p lylo as scum. I’m much stronger scum he more active I am.

Mm, I disagree with this. I lurk a lot more as town than I do scum.

I believe you were scum in a game I was in from the beginning, and by Day 4, I had like 10 posts.

I checked Mini 1931, Flavor Leaf was scum that game, guess how many times he said he was busy? ONCE. That's once in 492 posts from both accounts he posted as fyi. I'm pretty sure I can obtain even more games where Boon wasn't busy and was scum. Do you want to continue this inane push or are you going to force me to do more work?

I don’t start to post in games a lot as town until something get s me hyper invested.

As town, I tend to have a lot of “Blah, I’ll get to this tomorrow” then get to it like three days later.

The thing is, my scum game is me blatantly trying to mimic my town game, so I don’t really feel like there is anything that I do as scum, that i wouldn’t do as town, besides the scum gambits when I have to save face. I town gambit more than I scum gambit, though

FL thinks he's too good to be lynched on meta basically so in order to lynch him we need a result.
