MBP: You seem awfully concerned about the state of the game. It is only D2, do you really think we are
already doomed? If Powder was correct, the Scum:Town ratio has not been changed; its still 1:2.
Nuke, because WIFOM and inventing obscure roles.
See, I'm not sure how to respond to this.
WIFOM... the WIFOM makes it less likely I am scum, you do realise this, right?
Inventing obscure roles... how is this scummy? Now, if I were to act on this as if it was a 100% truthfact, that might be objectionable. But I am merely suggesting a possibility. Are you so incompetent that you find yourself confused by the mere suggestion of a non-standard role?
Also, ECrown is probably an SK, and he killed webs.
Do you actually think this is a possibility we should be acting on, or is it just something you are throwing out there?
NUKE. It's not hard to believe that Wubba would stir up wine by defending you to create even more wine after he flipped.
Well obviously I beg to differ.
Wubba drew attention to the fact that he was defending me. His defence of me was basically unnecessary anyway, and bore no fruit.
Wubba is not incompetent. He knew what the quinsequonces of his actions would be. If we were both scum, he would realise the risk involved if either of us was killed.
This risk would have been created entirely by his own choice.
The 'reward' would be WIFOM, which, as you have clearly demonstrated, is not very useful. Let's say that it would increase my chance of survival by 25%- and that is being
very generous.
This 'reward' would barely or not at all outweigh the risk. Wubba would have had to put effort into a scenario which at best has a very small effect (reward barely outweighs risk), and at worst has a large penalty (fellow scummate lynched).
You can shout WIFOM till you are blue in the face, but the fact remains that there is basically no reason for Wubba to do something like that.
Now, I will not argue that this makes it
less likely I am scum. That would be stupid.
But I will argue that it doesn't make it
more likely I am scum.
