I'm not sure if gifted abilities have to be used the night after received or if they have any stipulations but a vig isn't necessary yet.

At least I think that’s correct
This just in, folks: the optimal scum strategy is now to get hung day 1. Statistically, you win more often if this happens.I made a GTKAS. Go shitpost in it if you want. It's very lonely.

I don't know if it's statistically better, but I'd bet that scum winrates after a D1 scumflip are a lot closer to winrates after a D1 townflip than people would expect.
I think the biggest reasons are that scum hung D1 are more often than not bussed and that just based on numbers town is likely to mislynch a few times afterward and that can lead to a downward spiral and loss of motivation.It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!-

Yep, I totally "ignored the reason he was getting ran up." Care to provide proof of that? The reason was because of his scum!lurking meta, which I openly decided not to go along with. That's far from "ignoring"In post 3812, Nero Cain wrote:
It's scumhunting bro. I mean sure, there's the possibility that you are town that thought the EFN wagon was bad. I've defended scum as town before. *shrugz* It happens. But there's also plenty of scum motivation to do so and it seems like you mostly ignored the reason why he was getting ran up.In post 3783, mcqueen wrote:Your push on me for defending EFN is still bad. I've explained multiple times why I did, but you choose to accept it as scummy and no other way. It's clear no matter how I respond you'll always have an issue with it.
have you evenIn post 3783, mcqueen wrote:But you made 5 posts on Day 2 before that happened, and others after, BEFORE mentioning me, only AFTER others moved their vote onto me. I defended EFN on Day 1 so if you really had an issue with it, something would have and should have been said at the start of Day 2. You're using it to bandwagon me, that's all.LOOKED@ those 5 posts? 2691 is part of my failed catchup and the rest are sparring with Ram. What reads am I talking about? Though 2698 is kinda important. I'm fussing @ Ram for trying to sway from the FN wagon. Do you really think I'd not feel the same towards you? And I think your incredulousness @ the situation seems fake. The rest of my posts were catching up from those 8 pages that I missed while I was MIA and still not talking about my reads. TBF, your job as scum IS to discredit me and you are doing just that.
there's no correlation between the winners and day reps. Scum could have used their day rep ability thingy but that's just tin foily.In post 3783, mcqueen wrote:it's still a plausible case and BEF pushing it is possibly jumping the gun, but not dumb.

It doesn't matter if you were catching up. If it was that big of an issue it would have been said. Especially when it's only DURING the bandwagon do you care to mention my name. I don't care if you got on Ram for the same thing. Not once was my name mentioned and quite frankly I thought you'd forgotten about me.
-
What do you mean there's no correlation between winners and day reps?? 3/4 day reps are winners!
-
On that note, should I just keep lurking along with everyone else? I've read almost all of this thread and chose to back down. I'm not claiming to have the best play, but everything I've done has been vastly overexaggerated as scummy. Oh well, I'm guilty of it, too, with little activity and hard-to-come-by scumreads. Still, I'm just a damn townie.
My vote remains on Ram. I'm inclined to vote Elsa to rid ourselves of the Miller since we are closing in on the deadline with few other options.-

Pretty much this. D1 scumlynch > town thinks game is on lock > town lets things slide > town is in a bad spot in whatever number lylo because no one cared much after D1 is the progression of events I seem to notice.In post 3831, Something_Smart wrote:I don't know if it's statistically better, but I'd bet that scum winrates after a D1 scumflip are a lot closer to winrates after a D1 townflip than people would expect.
