Okay, I know it’s been said before but to list 3 people as scummy when there are only 2 isn’t scummy. To add to this I think this comes from a very ‘all knowing’ mindset. Something that would possibly be said by someone who knows all the roles.

No that is not what I am reading it as, I'm not dumb. I know what he is saying.

Unbelievably none of you have picked up on what I am saying.

Fairly sure does not equate to being 100% sure, why would a townie not be 100% sure that at least one of the scum is not in the list, when the list includes himself?[/b

What he should have said is something like, "I know that at least one of the people in the list aren't scum and I'm fairly sure that El Simo/Other person isn't scum." etc etc

But no he included himself in the doubtful statement. This is called a
scum slip

Which is more likely: That you're blind or that we're all blind?

Also: If Adrien C turns out to be scum, that doesn't make this any more of a scumslip.

Why isn't it a scumslip? This is a game where wording matters, do I think it is a slip of great magnitude? No. Do I think there is a chance that we are reading to far into this? there has to be a chance. Nevertheless it looks like Adrien hinted he was scum, and he has another scum tell I would like to point out as well:
Adrien C wrote:I think that puts palmer at L-1. This was a little quick, but I'll keep my vote for now.
This post reeks of scum logic, really a pointless post, "but I'll keep my vote for now" shows anti-town motives. Instead of unvoting to stop the wagon, or calling for palmer to defend himself, it really seems he wanted someone to hammer palmer. Not defending palmer here, just saying that quick wagons are bad for the town, or at least that is what I think.

Okay, this is what I was afraid of:
Raber wrote: Why isn't it a scumslip? This is a game where wording matters, do I think it is a slip of great magnitude? No. Do I think there is a chance that we are reading to far into this? there has to be a chance.
It’s not a slip. Let me explain as black and white as I possibly can. It’s a hard sentance to get your head around whether it is or isn’t and I’m not being patronising or accusing anyone of being dumb here. I just think that I’ve got a duty to point out false information so we are all on the same page and acting in response to what is true. Trying to clear the waters here.
”I'm fairly sure at least one, if not both, of the scumbags is not in that group.”

The group in question are Adrien, El simo and Palmer.

Instance 1:
Adrien = town – El simo = town – Palmer = mafia
Statement is true. Prediction is true.

Instance 2:
Adrien = town – El simo = mafia – Palmer = mafia
Statement is true. Prediction is false.

Instance 3:
Adrien = Mafia - El simo = town – Palmer = town
Statement is true. Prediction is true.

Looking at instance 2. Adrien can be ‘fairly certain’ of the comment he has made and be wrong and still be town. End of story. All town must digest this until you realise that this is not a scumslip otherwise your acting on false information.
That being said however I do still think that Adrien is quite scummy at the moment. Raber’s latest catch is probably going to be the clincher for me.
I also can’t quite shake the feeling that El Simo is bussing Adrien here. Looking at the situation, if I was Adrien’s partner right now I’d probably see that as a good move. I can’t help but feel that El Simo had a gun to Adriens head waiting for him to slip and we had this false scumslip fiasco as a result of El Simo being so eager to pounce on him. Does anyone else see where I’m coming from with this? Admittedly it’s a WIFOM prediction but it makes sense to me.

Vote Adrien


That should be L-1

ARGHHH! tits!

Sorry guys. I seem to have hammered. Damn. I completely didn't see Rabers vote and counted from the mods vote count.

Fingers crossed Adrien is scum otherwise if he isn't and mafia succesfully kill a towny we are in LYLO day 3 with the gun pointed at me presumably. Which means town will probably lose as I am town.

Tough old day 3 for me if he doesn't flip scum. I take full responsibility for the loss if we lose this. Again, sorry if he isn't. I'm an idiot.

Nice job to everyone who helped kill Adrien C.
  • palmertrou
    - I would be completely floored if palmertrou wasn't town. I am nearly 100% sure that he's not scum. Even if he didn't know he was hammering Adrien, bringing your partner to L-1 would have been far too dangerous. I can't even comprehend him not being a townie at this point.

    el simo
    - I would be surprised if el simo wasn't town.

    Raber
    - I would be surprised if Raber wasn't town.

    Espeonage
    - Neutral read. He was on the wagon that killed a scum. This gives him a very slight town bump. Scum can and do vote for one another and he was absent from most of the argument regarding his scumslip. Was he absent for some innocent reason? Did he not want to arouse suspicion by suddenly defending Adrien C?

    Elias_the_thief
    - Neutral read. I believe I defended his absenteeism earlier but he was completely gone during the hunt on Adrien C. He needs to get into the game. We're going into day three and he's playing the lurk game? This is unacceptable.

I'm reading towards Palmers being town as well.

I'll elaborate on my thoughts like you have done tomorrow, ACMelon.

Also mod, I think we could all appreciate a bit more punctuality and accuracy. If a deadline for the night is set I don't expect to wait until it's two days past for the day to begin.

I don't meant o be rude but I didn't see it changing unless someone brought it up so I thought I'd bring it up.

Sorry, but mod has a life too. This is exam season for me, there's been a death in my family and I've had police interviews trying to get justice for myself by putting my uncle behind bars. Not to mention having bad bipolar episodes. Also, It hasn't been two days. It hasn't even been 18 hrs.
