I would improve my hunting tactics and try to nail scum and build a case that causes everyone to vote for them and not me.
Gee, you make it sound so simple. It's a wonder that anyone who's town gets lynched at LYLO with strategy like that floating around.
I never said it would be successful, but that's basically the only strategy you've got if you've messed up so much that you're about to be lynched. Eyes aren't going to leave you unless you uncover someone who turns out to be scummier than you. If scum's played well and covered their tracks, well, you're probably screwed.
Native: What about a shielding move? Why did that not factor into your decision at all? Someone seems to have their scum mindset on.
Huh, guess I glossed over the shielding option. Even so, I would still pick the roleblock. I'd rather stop someone completely than risk my target (for the shield) taking more damage than they're protected from. Especially in the later days if I have a fair idea of who's scum. If I had a shield move, they could just target me instead. If I had a roleblock move, I could stop them completely
I'm unsure of what you mean by having my scum mindset on. Given the mechanics of the game, it's just as likely for scum to have any of those abilities as town, so accidentally excluding one (well, maybe if I excluded the kill, but even that's a stretch) doesn't really strike me as anything mentionable. I feel like I might be missing something. So if you think otherwise, could you please elaborate?
On the Subject of ZombieUrist: I think he might be a jester. I find it difficult to believe that someone would make the post he's made and not want to be lynched or killed. He's even posted his HP for us to all see how many times we have to hit him to kill him. Also, with posts like
this (primarily the "Oh no someone is going to kill me", he's practically begging to be killed and is expressing his total disregard for his own wellbeing. This strikes me as jestery without actually overplaying it (which kills the gambit for most jesters).
What leads me to believe that there can be jesters is the fact that occasionally in LoL you get people called "Feeders" who intentionally get themselves killed to troll their own team. It wouldn't surprise me to find out that Dariush labeled someone as a "Feeder" AKA a jester-type role.
Dariush/Modman: Are Third-Parties a possibility?
If he answers with "Yes", my argument stands. If "No", then Zombie is just bad.
Extend.
Ten hour workdays and a cold have not been kind to me. I caught up as best I could tonight and will make another go at it tomorrow around the same time.
