I actually think the opposite is more common. Scum going against the grain since they know its wrong. Either you are just very very pocketed or you are scum yourself thats not going to bite the guy town reading you.
While that's true scum tend to go against the grain in alot of situations, I don't see the benefit to IAI here, especially if this is LyLo. I guess you'll have to count me in the pocket.

a 3/15 doesn't seem impossible at all to me, maybe even makes the most sense with the low town power.
firstly
we don't have "low town power" and you and trans are fucking bonkers saying we do.

secondly
if you are
suddenly so sure
that there's only 3 scum, then why would you FOS and throw shade on ME when I make a post saying that there's a possibility we're not in LyLo going "You're the only one who thinks we're not in LyLo, whiskers!!?!?!"

Because oyu were the one who suggested it and argued it.

And even then I didn't say you
should
"buy" one setup over the other: case in point in my next post I went "Hey maybe it's not LyLo and there's only 3 scum after all" which you thougth was scummy.

But more importantly, why are you fucking bothering posting about setup speculation (first assuring us that there's 4 scum, now that there's only 3-- and really, throughout the game this keeps being brought up) in the first place?

atleast one of the following is true.

the three scum have not gotten on all at the same time
there is not three scum
hey wow it's like i literally said,
In post 5154, Whiskers wrote:that said, scum haven't quickhammered lucky. that could mean a bunch of things, here they are:

Lucky is scum and scumteam wants to save him
Lucky is town and scumteam isn't around to quicklynch him (ie, Flairs & IaI)
Lucky is town and scum are already voting him (Nero & Whiskers), hoping town will sheep.
-OR-
This isn't LyLo.

And then you're all fuckin, "oh hey
definitely
3 player scumteam" but here you go

In post 5255, Nero Cain wrote:there is not three scum
In what scenario does your vote on lucky prove this?
Like, if there's 4 scum, it's LyLo (right?) and they could potentially all hop on and quicklynch.
If there's 3 scum, it's not LyLo, they
couldnt
all hop on and quicklynch, even if they wanted to.
So how does no quickhammer prove there isn't 3 scum? How
could
it?

axel and IaI make sense together, but I read Axel as town and IaI as scum mostly from confirmation bias and a lack of willingness to push me.

Actually I take that back. IaI's lack of willingness to push me but consistent reminders that "oho whiskers is still alive!" fuckin tweaks me something fierce

that's literally argument from repetition, you plant a seed of doubt and you just let it niggle in the back of everyone's heads. you know who else used argument from repetition instead of making a case against whiskers? Alisae.

idfk on beeboy slot. pretty ok play Day 1.0 - 1.5, then lurked out. Then replaced by what, flairs? who then lurked out. Now replaced by Sauce, who has fucked up his account and prolly won't be here for the rest of the Day. Might lurk out too, who knows?

I had some reason for scumreading Lucky but I forgot it rn.

Axel > Nero > Transcend > Flairs = Lucky* > IaI

scumteam? associative tells are like boxing with shadows.

ummmm, I've always thought you were scummy so it's not like I'm just now FOSing and that's not even what happened. Like you suggested that it was scummy for me to go through this game thinking that it was 4 scum and then change my mind. Why is it scummy to change my mind? There are two probable setups, why should I believe one over the other? What I'm saying is that you are guilty of the same thing you are accusing me of.

but Whiskers being all hostile is yuck. The whole "u r FOSing me for suggesting that today isn't lylo!" is shades of Math misrep. I'm pretty ok flipping this today.

I am freezing the deadline at 4 days as Sauce seems to be having issues with his account not being activated. The deadline will resume when this is resolved.
