binus, you had me curious so i went back and looked.

out of 18 games across 2022, i was town aligned in 11 of them.

my non town games:

john cena - sunset canyon hoa - 3p alt serial killer - lost.

sombrero - the outfit 2 - i was scum and amazingly turboed d1 in just over 3 hours, and before i had even woken up and had the chance to post.

yami's - phasmophobia haunted house - that ghost hunting game, i was a ghost so scumlike i guess? we were in the minority and had out of thread comms - ghost / scum victory.

toalpaz - mystery village - scum - scum victory.

oppo - nft mafia - 3p, but didn't meet my wincon but i think i screwed town by taking a bunch of people with me. so arguably scummy lol.

john cena - HEAVY METAL - 3p bounty hunter and met my solo wincon.

oppo - CYOR mafia madness - 3p cult recruiter and met my solo wincon.

It was really momentum more than anything. I honestly think if CirclMastr didn’t empty vote me I probably survived. Binus was right about a lot with me (although the just checking in thing was “right for wrong reason”) but his reason for voting me was asking someone else why they voted for someone. I constantly do that in every game I have played and asking someone to explain their vote has never been a scumtell. And then after that the only other vote on me was PMom’s, which the rest of the game saw how bad that vote was. If it was just those two votes I could have continued to point out how flimsy they were and life would have moved on.

But then circl came in and, without saying anything else, threw a vote on me.

If Circl hadn’t voted me, I don’t think Wind moves their vote to me. If wind doesn’t move their vote to me, I probably don’t rise to the next alternative. But once the game mind had decided it couldn’t be you or wind, with a deadline approaching it could only be me at that point. Kind of like an avalanche. It became the only viable option.

Oh also lol at a bunch of people starting to look at birdstrike as scum because he wouldn’t vote me. Birb was never going to vote for me, y’all.

math wise that means 38% of my games I was non town. does that mean i'm overrepresented for non-town roles if on average most games aim for around 25% of players as scum + 3p on top of that?

i'm going to go with yes and not overthink it.

This was a fun game, Ecco. I won't apologize again for the way I blew it up, as I think it was at least entertaining for it all to go this way instead of executing scum in order.

Im confused. Why did the scum team surrender

In order:
- D1 dunk on slord was very demoralizing.
- I was obviously getting turbo'd
- And if we somehow survived Traitor Moz knew the whole scumteam, because salad put together a list at Moz's request that outted all the scum anyway (lol)

We had in fact hellaciously screwed our wincon real bad. So it goes.

sort of! Hal had to shoot two people though to get rid of the threats to town after OA got lunched, vs. here where only scum ever got taken out before we received the graceful exit option. Least bodies required to end a game ever possibly (just Clord and Mona's)

i'll confess, i deliberately nexused last night hoping to demoralise scum further after the d1 dunk.

here's my PM to ecco:

Do I use it now to further demoralise scum and prevent deaths for night 1…

OR

save it for n2 or n3 where it might have greater impact, but risk dying before hand and not using it.

when i'm scum i like to think of my job as not just trying to win the game but also almost as being a co-GM, where in i also want to create a fun experience for town (never by contravening my wincon, but just by giving them something to run after)

in that light, i can see why scum surrendered from a "huh this isn't looking good for us" perspective, but i think as scum i'da wanted to give town the runaround a bit anyway :grin:

Same lol, I saw the flip and was very confused as to how that happened cause as clord put it, I just voted because there was momentum and I had talked myself out of voting any of the other options.
