Aristophanes could be busy, on vacation, having Wi-Fi problems, etc.
Yup (exceptional case).
Scum purposely lurking to avoid engaging(which in the end gives you no benefit because you have to post eventually to avoid getting replaced, and plus the town will just scumread for it) I'd say is an exceptional case.

I believe I already made a post saying that
purposely
lurking doesn't give benefits to scum.

I definitely do. I'd be very interested to see somebody give me a
good
scum mindset involving lurking.
Scum1:
Cool, we're scum! Okay, let's think of a strategy to get rid of town.
Scum2:
Hmm... Oh, I know! Let's lurk!
Scum1:
But why would you want to lurk? Won't you get replaced?
Scum2:
Then I'll just post useless crap to avoid getting replaced!
Scum1:
But if you have to post eventually then what's the purpose of lurking?
Scum2:
JUST SHUT UP AND LURK

But if you're Town then you lose nothing by continuing to try and play and improve and help Town. The only way this makes sense is if you are scum and want to avoid doing things to incriminate yourself. Your play was not extremely bad Day 1. In fact it was not bad at all unless you are scum.
Yes but I don't trust myself. Most of what you guys say is well developed, analytical, and makes sense to me. I'm trying to find stuff that none of you have seen, but most of the major posts that I have opinions on would literally be parroting one of the other players. I'm just frustrated .. sorry for my semi-inactivity
If you agree with things other people have said, just wrote what you agree with.

Yeah, I get that. I'm sorry you feel frustrated. It can still be helpful to see which points you agree with though. Even if you think Void and I have already said everything, you surely don't agree with all of it completely? Saying which stuff you agree with and which stuff you don't agree with helps us sort you and also potentially helps us see any flaws in our work. Teamwork is great. Don't be shy!

In post 2799, WhyMafia wrote:Can you explain "anti-town?"
Well, you have pro-scum, pro-town, and anti-town. Pro-scum is behavior that furthers scum win-con, pro-town behavior is stuff that directly furthers Town win-con, anti-town is behavior that doesn't directly further Town win-con. Saying "lynch me" is anti-town because you getting mislynched does nothing to directly benefit Town win-con, you should be doing everything you can to fight your lynch because you are confirmed as Town to yourself whereas no one else is (except Void and I in this game). Anti-town behavior is typically selfish behavior. Pro-town behavior is typically making yourself obvtown via working with others to scumhunt and gamesolve. So the difference is mostly that anti-town focuses on you individually ("I'm sick of this game, lynch me"), pro-town focuses on the Town win-con overall ("You're not lynching scum, here is why and here is where I think the scum are"). (Brackets are responses to being wagoned, the way you were Day 1 where you let off a bunch of anti-town AtE.)
