I really like . good analysis there. one small thing I think is interesting is Black directly calling out that not using contractions might sound robotic -- I wouldn't be inclined to point that out as scum.

onwards -- PenguinPower is town. scum does not take eight posts across 5 minutes to wiggle on around to voting on someone (even if it's me)

the interaction between Black and hebichan starting at is very interesting. not sure what it means, but hey

oh my god don't spill the plan directly in the thread :/

fwiw, in response to GreyICE a post or two later, if someone asked me to coordinate RVS like that as scum, I'd probably be like "sure, whatever, let's do it," but I would never originate a plan like that on my own

for the record, I wasn't dodging the question so much as being dismissive of it. that being said, to me the function of RVS is to create tension that can be shaped into reads. voting in a way that creates tension pushes the game in the direction of having things actually happen. jumping on the hebichan wagon turns that wagon into a Thing The Game Is About, which in turn lets people generate reads.

don't love this! reads very youth pastor trying to be cool with the teens in a scummy way

quick confession: whenever I've seen a post by KawaiiKame I've just been like "ah! it's my good friend Luz Noceda posting," so I didn't notice their username until like page 8 or 9. I kept seeing people refer to "Kawaii" and being like "hm, not sure which player that is. guess that's a problem for future me to figure out."

btw I'm moving my vote to Aureal at the end of this post because of 359, but I'm just pointing out here that I could see hebi scum being a thing. I put the vote at the end of my Notepad++ document before , but you're just gonna have to take my word that me moving my vote isn't a scum buddy maneuver.

god I just watched the page count go up by like 2 while I was responding to posts on page 16. wish me luck

I don't care for the "that was pocketing?" comment. on the one hand I'd be willing to believe that Aureal genuinely isn't sure whether daytalk is a default thing or how PTs work. on the other hand I still get such bad vibes from 359, and this doesn't really mitigate those.

just checked: my last scum game was mini 2051 by schadd. thanks, schadd. I got hammered on the day I went to sheetz while driving to Buffalo. makes you think.

Frogs barely acknowledged hebichan at all before this vote. concerning.

I don't hate this.[/post]

I know I said earlier that I would not be prepared to read LLD but this could be scum behavior

lol, lmao. hebi, if you haven't done so between now and whenever I'm caught up on the thread, I'd love to hear your role name.

this is very, very interesting for reasons I will not be elaborating on at this time.

figured this was probably it, but good to have confirmation.

good shit!

fwiw I very strongly considered putting the salamander babies on my list. I could see someone putting something silly and obscure like a random specific borg.

okay just to clarify, you know the role name of the other borg, and it's someone who
isn't
a canon borg?

it's not out of the question imo

changed my mind from 406. this is town LLD

frogs, I'd forgotten who was in your hydra until it came up just now. alisae, one of the games I opened trying to find my last scum game was [url=viewtopic.php?t=79232]micro 862[/post]. good shit

VOTE: Aureal
To clarify for you, as I said. Team of three. One member is a Canon borg character, the third is not a borg at all. Our faction is not borg themed and the third members role is not flavored or related to borgs at all, in abilities, fluff or anything.

So a non-town claim.

Vote: Hebi


I will not go into a long explanation of why this is always, always, always, always the correct move. A brief summary:

- The moderator has not confirmed the existence of a non-hostile, non-town faction. There's no evidence it exists. There's a known non-town faction - it's Mafia. Occam's Razor.
- Fferyllt likes fairly vanilla roles. For instance their design document for Tarot Mafia, despite having an incredibly complicated picking procedure, has mostly "modified vanilla" roles: viewtopic.php?p=12857475#p12857475
- It's a mini normal, 13 players doesn't give much room for a non-town, non-hostile faction.
-
It's day 1, we're guaranteed not to eliminate town by doing this


The last one should be the only one that matters.
