Following up on busb's list, there's only four of us that I feel like I know who they think is scum (yuming, busb, Bif, and me).

Anybody else, who is scum and why? Please stop ignoring that question!

Ok, of the cases made thus far do any strike you as not coming from a scum hunting perspective? And if you don't have a clue, why are you trying to degrade the CPig case as having no case when it has a better point to it than any suspicions you hold?

Prolly cause, if Magnus is scum, CPig is my top suspect for potential scumbro. (Next suspects are LUTR or MMM)

Yeah that's real convenient to kill off MMM. Kind of makes me think it could be Byers after all, just cause he's so involved in the game so he's killing the absent shitposters on principle.

I'll be willing to help get Byers lynched before deadline, but let me get in some more obsessive double-guessing and going back over everything before I cast a vote, just in case. :v:

It's MYLO, FYI. Spacebutt needs to remove CPig, but we have six alive. So two scum, six alive, that's MYLO.

I'm VT. based on the flips, it looks like it's a pure vanilla game. But, everyone I think is scum keeps dying, so clearing out one more player makes sense to me. The right move is to No Lynch today.

You're absolutely right, my meta as scum would be to kill the lurkers. I'm not scum, which means there's a veteran on the town team who knows my meta. I think it's busb. His cases on magnus and yuming ignore town reasons for their behavior, as though he's just looking for the lynch and not looking for scum. Gun to my head, right now I'd say scum is busb and LUTR, but we should not be lynching today.

Byers2142

Of course, crazy theory, Bif said he would vote me and didn't; there's no sign in his post he publicly withheld because of MYLO. Scum need two town votes on me today to win. If he's trying to set up for the win today, that post is a very good way to try and get a final town vote before scum rush the final two votes for the win.

If scum are killing lurkers, they are not lurkers themselves. Could be any two of LUTR, busb, or Bif. I don't think it's Magnus or yuming.

Why not? Looking at the numbers, that should be right that we're in MYLO, and tomorrow would be LYLO if we don't lynch.

He might still be scum of course, but if so he's at least playing the "look how helpful I am to the town, fellow townies" brand of scum.

Actually having a vote option to no-lynch though, is really weird to me.

Prevents the day from dragging, which is a bonus in a game where literally three people are talking and nights are open. You get a majority voting for it, just end the day early.

Just one drawback to that "don't let the day drag" idea, though. Right now we got the annoying even number and it takes 4 votes to lynch. But tomorrow, only one misplaced vote from an overconfident townie would be enough for the scum to pounce on the win.

Best to make sure everyone understands that and gets their thoughts together before we go rushing off to the final day.

Yeah, which is why no one votes quickly tomorrow. Rule one in LYLO, no votes until everyone posts.

It's not an automatic thing, sometimes you don't no lynch here because there are clear town players that will be killed and you don't learn anything. but I don't feel confident enough to say any of y'all are that town, which is why letting scum eliminate one player is the best call before lynching again.

There's like never ever a game where you know absolutely.

But to come in within the first page of a day, vote for a no lynch and declare that it's definitely the best move for the day, I don't get that at all.

It might be the best move! But why declare that right away, without any actual discussion? That makes me nervous.

We should also all get scum picks out there, cause we don't know which one of us would be gone tomorrow to miss the chance.

I think Magnus is still the scummiest one left. Too bad the momentum flipped right back onto CPig after I'd tried shifting to Magnus... busb why did you vote CPig when yuming's vote was already there and I'd switched to Magnus as well?

Hi, nolynch is fine.

I went for cpig because it seemed that's what more people thought was the better scum option. I really have thought its magnus all game but now it's lylo tomorrow I need to be careful and rethink.

Really it could be anyone at this stage. Byers coming at me in pseudo capnandy mode doesn't feel right.

I don't disagree with most of this, but again it feels like you're hyping on things that I don't think are scum tells. The big thing to remember is that we don't need to get both scum tomorrow, just one to extend the game and get more info from the next night kill.
