NQT: I expect this to be a fair bit more difficult than #49, as there are more experienced players here.

Do you think it is better to have many or few power roles?

Persus13: I think I learned how to, at least adequately, portray myself as town when I'm scum. I learned a bit about conducting a scumhunt and I adopted an outlook of "playing to learn". Aside from that, just general purpose what-not-to-do and what-to-do things as well as how the mechanics work in general, for a BM at the very least.

What do you think is important to do on the first day, if nothing else?

TDS
TheDarkStar — do you have a handle on the play-styles of the other players?
Yes.
Great! give me a quick summary of how you see the other players play-styles. Also, any reason for being particularly taciturn?

You asked me a yes/no question and I didn't have much time to answer before I had to do other stuff. As for the summary, I'll give that later when I have time.

Are there any other questions I missed (other than Varee's, which seems rhetorical)?

OK, so ask me a trickier question.
In your opinion, with your knowledge of the players present:
  • Who is the greatest threat to town as scum?
  • [0]Who is the Least beneficial to town as town?

  • Who is the least beneficial to scum as scum?
  • [0]Who is the greatest threat to scum as town?

flabort:
UI: OK. What would your reaction to the player accusing you of being scum in that situation be?
I'd defend myself against their argument while pushing my own case. Unless they're being actively scummy, the lurker takes jailing priority.
I think that's a good answer.
Next question: What do you see as the most effective style of question for hunting scum?

Varee: In your reply to TDS, you said there was not a thing you can do to respond to votes on you during RVS. I challenge you to come up with two ideas as to why someone might unvote or vote someone else during RVS.
Worldmaster: Is there anyone you currently trust? Is there anyone you suspect by now?

flabort: Trust? Myself. :P Really though, anyone could be scum so I'm going to try to avoid completely trusting one person. If you're asking who seems like town, then I'd say yourself.

As far as suspects, I'm not sure. At the moment I'm thinking to see who the scum kill during the night and evaluate this day. If I had to say at this moment, I'd go with Persus. He's been lurking, as he admits, and he hasn't altogether contributed much to the discussion by asking questions. He seems content to sit on the sidelines.

@Flabort: i cant think of anything you can do to directly get the vote of you, something like asking a lot of question in hope of one of the answer of the other might take the vote instead might work. But afaik some people just roll dice for RVS and i dont think there anything you can do to avoid thoese....

Varee: You found one of the methods. Have a hint as to the other.
1) Finding someone genuinely scummy to vote.
2) ██████████ our questions █████████████.

Notquitethere, Deathsword, Varee, Scripten: The day ends today. If you are not satisfied with lynching Varee, why aren't you trying to get us out of RVS? I don't see much discussion from any of you.

UI, TDS: The day ends today, without extensions. Are you satisfied with lynching Varee today? Is lynching what is essentially a completely random pick for you alright?

Persus, Worldmaster: The day ends today, and you haven't used your votes yet. Are you OK with just sitting on the sidelines, letting RVS continue?

Yes, because I have yet to see anything really scummy yet.

Extend, I'll post more after class.

I've been really busy these past few days. Pretty sure there's some questions aimed at me that I need to take care of, too. Sorry for the inactivity, guys. I'll be back in this by this afternoon, promise.

How about lurking, not participating in RVS by only asking two token questions, and having no desire to hunt scum? I can name one person doing that, Persus13.
