Good intro. Though I wonder, where will all of the bodies go on a submarine?

Yay! We won ! I have not expected that it will end this quickly after D1 :P Not sure if i were any help to the town but it was fun fir sure. Hmm it appears that lurking is good scum tactic after all.. Well,something to remember for later. So, how i did overall? I feel like i done nothing d2, bleh.

Lurking might sometimes get you through a day, but it is never a good plan, for two reasons. The first is that it dosn't give you a chance to prove you are town, so the longer the game goes on, the more doubt builds in peoples mind, and the second is that your not playing the game! If you signed up, you should play the game with honer and beat the town with lies instead of flying under the radar.

Yea, there are times when it will get you through the day, but chances are if you try lurking in lylo your going to get destroyed for it, and any other time it isn't a good long term plan.

Really? The only reason I suspected Bd was because he was... well, I guess I suspected him because he was dodgy more than anything. Mere lurking probably would have looked less weird than all that avoidance he did.

Thats what got me, too. BD was, as billybob stated, very dodgy, and the lurking did nothing to improve it.

Lurking is never a good tactic. This should be painfully obvious by the fact that this is the hitherto best town victory so far.


The entire scumteam consisted of lurkers, and there was little effort to remedy that. I know that will probably come off as mean, but it's true.
For the scumteam, I'd suggest reading through and doing what I've repeated several times in scumchat, and to start playing the game. Even if you managed to get through parts of the day, doing so via hardcore lurking isn't something to be proud of.

Yeah, lurking here was what really switched my focus onto Bd.  I was flitting between Billybob and Vector, but Bd's near uselessness at the end of Day 1 (when things were getting heated and critical) really annoyed me, and his quick vote and resumed lurking at the outset of Day 2 sealed it.  I wasn't 100% certain at first, but I wasn't going to change my vote until he gave me some sort of defense.  The longer he lurked and gave minimal replies, the more it drew others onto him for suspicious behavior.  So yeah, lurking is never the answer.
