Wait, what? How does that work? Aren't the scum different colors? And how could we all win? I'm very confused by this whole role/alignment thing. I thought it was like fire/ice mafia.

There are four set ups and doing some logic if the scum come forward today we can get a whacky arangement where everybody wins. Trust me.

I don't know about you, but if a scum claims, I'm just going to go ahead and vote them.

Good thing you need a majority, then.

CPig is on board. If you are town I am offering a guaranteed victory, if you are scum and claim now you can also win.

We just need to satisfy both conditions at once, it can be worked out mathematically with the tools at our disposal.

Compare PM and Kleedrac's reaction to CPig's. CPig advocated for scum to claim and didn't blow the roll until later (which he blew for no reason).

They're also both voting me now, Kleedrac vote being directly opposed to how he said his play would be before.

I'm feeling town on CPig and Hiipfire, both seemed to have fairly town reactions to the whole thing.

What changed was that you did something extremely scummy - I shall explain;

There are 4 setups possible in this game, Configurations A and B involve a scumteam with the same color alignment and a lack of the Oracle. Configurations C and D have scum teams with opposing colors but the town gains an oracle. I stand by what I said earlier;


The only way someone could claim this power role day 1 safely is if they know the role is theirs or not in the game. If you are scum - and you have discussed with your scummate your colors - and they matched; you would know for a fact there is no Oracle and it becomes a safe claim. I think you did know it was a safe claim and for the latter reason. You sir, are scum!

No it isn't, there is literally no reason for scum to do that.

Also, I am on PM and Kleedrac because their actions do not make sense for somebody who was looking to kill scum.

Like, for real, give me one way their posts of "I am town and I am not going to do that" helps kill scum.

Either way, we haven't had one claim and it's not as if there's any danger.

I'm more amused at PM's insinuation that trying to solve the game is a scum thing to do.

It is because PM is scum.

This is the start of Kleedrac's scumminess. This is a "I am a helpful townie post!" that means nothing, especially since the vote in question was against the mod of the game. Kleedrac wasn't paying attention but wanted to jump in with a safe two cents.

Kleedrac posted:

This. [Edit for context: "If scum claim I will vote for them"]

This is a VERY SCUMMY MOVE because it is a post that literally only benefits scum. Town would play it like CPig or Hiipfire did - confused or seeing an opening an agree. By discouraging the scum from claiming town would be actively working against their win condition.

This is a nonsense post that is made because he is angry I fingered him. He quick voted after saying he wouldn't and comes in with a transparently flawed case (Assuming scum would discuss color in a game where color matters a great deal). This is a OMGUS case.

Kleedrac posted:

This doesn't seem like a great proposition for any Vanilla Townies. Though it's also that I've been burned before by trying to solve setups. I wouldn't mind seeing more people weigh in on CCKeane. The fact that all 7 of us have checked in now means either there is no Oracle to counter-claim or the Oracle wishes to remain silent. Either way such a big splashy play seems more scummy to me than anything, but I'd like to get more opinions.

Again, this is a "helpful townie" post that is made in the absence of other meaningful posts (save for his "case" on me). He is also very concerned about figuring out if their is an oracle. PROBABLY BECAUSE HE'S WORRIED ABOUT HIS SCUM BUDDY OH NO!!!

And, finally:

Kleedrac posted:

Kleedrac is scum because he is trying to attack arguments, not facts. This is a scummy behavior.

1) I had barely rolled out of bed and hadn't processed enough caffeine - you're an idiot

2) I disagree - your gambit was retarded and saying "I will vote for scum" is somehow scummy?! Dream on man.

3) The vote was perhaps an OMGUS but my case was solid - it's not unreasonable to think the scumteam who have the advantage of out-of-thread communication would still find that a better method of victory than the color gimmick.

4) Perhaps I'm helpful to the townies because I'm town :P I am concerned if there's an oracle in fact - though that is more due to me trying to figure out which setup out of curiosity - and the oracle gets color info not alignment info so I'm not sure why a scumteam would care.

5) That post was asking for the post I'm currently responding to - you basically spent too long railing me with nothing but blind accusations and no case - at least now you've rectified that though your case is weak.

I regret taking my vote off of you - I'm going to rectify that now as you're definitely scum - no town in a 7 player game would rail and flail like this

##Vote CCKeane

Yes, a good vote...FOR SCUM TO MAKE.
