Flabort, give me the names of three scummy players and the reason for their scummitude in order of scummitudinacity.
I'll need to reread day 2 so far, but at a quick glance:
Toaster: Seems passive where I expect him to be aggressive, and aggressive where none is due. High content posts that are fluffier than mine. Quite possibly Cult Leader, imo.
Jim Groovester: Arguably justified, but his levels of "upset" are overblown. It may be his character to call people "DIPSHITTARD"s, but he seems to be using that to pretend to care, rather than genuinely caring.
Toonyman: A lower post count than anyone but the replacements. He seems to show up to reply to everything, and then disappears for long periods of time. However, most of his content has been reading pro town.
Shall I continue?
That's awfully optimistic at best and nearly suicidal at worst, isn't it? What happens if a townie makes a scumslip in that situation?
Then we question them and everyone else on the scumslip, until we're sure it really is a scumslip, or we determine it's not. During the course of questioning, someone else is sure to slip up if the first slip was town.
So you want everybody to claim so you can single out the power roles and do regular scumhunting on them.
But everybody in Supernatural has a power role of some kind. So you'd end up doing regular scumhunting on everybody, which is what we're already doing, except everybody is claimed.
Why don't we just cut out the unnecessary steps and just do regular scumhunting on everybody, without claiming, and this way, everybody is happy?
The mass claim isn't happening, bro.
I was going to say it's not regular scum hunting, but I guess you're
somewhat right.
It basically is, but we KNOW EVERYONE'S ROLE, it turns the situation into a HIGHER PRESSURE to get the lynch RIGHT.
With regular scum hunting, everything is just a shot in the dark. The only evidence is the concrete evidence, the lines of questioning that we mostly follow resemble an Ace Attorney game. Only everyone is a prosecutor AND the judge. Which is quite silly, but true.
With everyone role claimed, the game can proceed more like a real court. Only now everyone is the Jury and the Defendant.
I guess you are right, though, the mass claim isn't happening, so I may as well drop the subject, right? Wouldn't you like that? Fine.
Flabort:
Then I'm just going to go with my gut. Toaster. I can't support my case against him, but I suspect him more than I do Jim or Jiokuy. Or NQT or IG, TWS, Toony, or Zombie for that matter. My gut says Toasty is scum. My (flawed) scumometer says Jim and Toony are scum. The evidence seems to say that the scum is not who is being most scummy (NQT, Jim, Jiokuy). So I'm going with my gut in this short time.
Why Toaster instead of someone else? And why do you cite NQT, Jim and Jiokuy as evidence of scummy non-scum when none of them are confirmed town, then and now? Why does your scum meter say Toony is scum?
So I guess I'm asking for a Mass Claim.
Why early mass-claim is bad.
1. Scum can easily pull off a fake-claim (ex. Tiruin in Supernatural 6 fakeclaimed Dreamwalker? [Not sure which role specifically]), especially since only one needs to do so.
2. Scum then targets dangerous/useful power roles with their kill or convert. (For instance, if you're town, I highly doubt scum will convert or kill you because your claimed role is more useless then dangerous)
Because my gut honestly believes toaster to be scum. If I put my vote on the current wagon it would look scummy, if I put my vote on ZU it would look scummy, if I put my vote back on Jim, it would look scummy, if I put my vote on IG, it would just look plain dumb, if I put my vote on Tirun (now Hapah), it would look like I'm lazy, etc.
My only choices were Ottofar and Toaster, and I don't feel like Ottofar is as scum as Toaster. Ottofar may be scum, but Toaster is the scum leader.
NQT seemed scummy at the time, because half the players seemed to have some sort of minor or major case on him at the time. I saw no evidence to that. I felt Jim was scummy at the time, but no one else was able or willing to find evidence to the fact, and my evidence was poor. Jiokuy, was the leading wagon at the time, so seemed scummy to others. But I again didn't see the evidence to this, and he flipped SK, not scum.
See above for why Toony is maybe scum.
1) Easily? What perfect role out there can scum "Easily" fake claim? Most fake claims I've seen have been pretty touch-and-go.
2) Assuming they have a kill or convert left. Which they won't if we - never mind. Ugh.
Toaster You said yesterday that my scum hunting methodology is flawed. You probably still think so. How can you prove that yours is not? You were voting Toonyman yesterday, for "pretending to commit", or "not committing". The way I see it you have been doing more or less the same. I don't mean committing to a lynch, but committing to your stance.
Zombie Urist What method for scum hunting do you feel is best for tracking down a possible cult team?
Imperial Guardsman Enough with the short contentless posts. Quoting yourself will not answer their questions to their satisfaction. Try rewording what you want to say, and
then repeating it, followed by another paraphrase of what you're saying. "If it still doesn't satisfy your pursuers, change tact". And if that tactic doesn't work, try something else. Right now, even if you are by definition
MY ally, you're grating on my nerves. Sorry.
