+1 interested in an answer to this question

It’s risky, not dumb. It can work as Town if you’re not turbo’d and people are patient. (It can also work as scum as a gambit, not just to get townread but you can do lots of cool things with it later on in the game).

Anyways, you’re slated to be policy lynched atm and there was a bunch of other discussion about your justification for example, do you have other thoughts on those? Why jump to this post immediately and ignoee all that?

Ahhh okay that makes sense, thanks. Hadn’t thought of Millers making it to the end game.

Would still prefer an inactive lynch today to drive activity, but I guess the Miller policy lynch makes sense. Although it could be a bad idea if the Miller is townie.

Oh you just answered it my bad

Why do you think we should lynch the Miller claim and not an inactive btw?

Fair enough, I do the same thing and I’m also addicted to the game (lmao). Just thought it was slightly strange you answered mostly for Pie and not other players

Yeah, Thoth and Shining both need to post more. Down to lynch either of them if they’re not forthcoming. Especially Shining.

VTL Shining

Only thing I’ll say is that Lunatic keeps covering for Pie and answering questions I addressed to him for Pie.

Wrt the “character analysis” question I asked you about

No I understand your point, was just offering a suggestion. Tbh I mostly wanted to look for things to ask you questions about rather than having some issues with what you were saying, that’s why the questions were kinda ass.

Ah okay, that makes sense. I don’t see why a Miller claim calls for a policy lynch. I could see other roles calling for a policy lynch, or some other Miller that only claimed sfter a Cop found them scum.

In the absence of solid scumreads I’d rather go for Shining who has posted only once or twice than a Miller.

Anyways Rex needs to post more. Why is the Miller claim a policy lynch btw? Genuine question.

Wylted, do you stand by your Miller claim?

but my point is that if theres a character that fits Miller better why wouldnt banana make them the Miller instead of a guy that doesnt make as much sense? Guy who doesnt get along with ppl (who sounds more like a Hated than a Miller though it could make SOME sense as a Miller justification)

Is that a list from town to scum? The thing you posted

Assuming a Miller really is in the game we could verify Wylted’s claim by checking if any of the other characters make sense with a Miller. Mharman first made a setup then Banana tweaked a bit to fit the characters. My guess is she prioritized the roles being balanced and probably didn’t change the setup very much, so Wylted getting a weird justification could make sense.

my questions aren’t scumreads btw, just questions. Minor nitpicks to see what you answer

I have a bunch of other questions, mostly for Rex and Pie, but will have to wait for them to get here

I notice you answered Alyssa’s question to Pie for him, “why do you think Supa would be raging”, is it because you’re Scum and you know Pie is Town and are pocketing him?? :P

Minor nitpick but couldn’t that possibly result in you tunnelling? You don’t know all of the character(s)/(claims), and one of the characters claimed may be kinda scummy or slightly different from the other claimed ones, which could result in one pkayer being excessively pushed.

I don’t. I guess pursuing more claims is a bad idea.

VTL Wylted

We could go for character claims now then full claims tomorrow.

For what it’s worth, not really game related but now that I’m Town, Pie’s strategy makes sense, even if it’s annoying when you’re on the receiving end.

I used to do this when playing the StarCraft II Mafia map/mod. It’s basically exactly like Town of Salem with some role differences and far less cartoonish graphics. It’s very annoying when it’s done to you but it’s also a nice way of pressuring ppl and getting scum to react.

VTL RexFavilla

I do think Wylted could potentially be scum. He plays slightly differently from how I’m used to him playing, and the early unprompted claim when people are getting run up to claim is kinda scummy. A bit less so since it’s coming from him, but I find the Miller claim a little convenient, it would be hard for him to justify an unprompted claim otherwise. Plus, how often is this man a Miller? Jeez…

Anyway, I want Rex to claim next.

What makes you think that as scum I try to do what I think I would do as Town?

Actually, sorry, that question was poorly phrased. What I meant was, where have you seen me not just attempt but actually succeed in acting like I normally do as Town? I’m unsure if that is what you are saying but you certainly seem to be implying it

Early on*

Pie could be trying this strat as scum since he did it last game and he was Town. My reasoning is that Pie is usually good at appearing Townie as scum, and I don’t think most people in this game would scumread him for it. Does anyone agree with this take or am I being retarded?

I still townread Pie for the record, just trying to come up with potential scum in that town pool since I would be a little surprised if I was 100% correct about a PoE this early ok.

If I was going by pure vibes at this point which are likely to be wrong BUT if I was, I would say Pie/Lunatic/Alyssa/Vader are probably Town. This is a 9p so there’s probably 2 scum, along with possibly a neutral (although that feels a little strong with 2 scum unless Town is seriously loaded, but I doubt Mikal would approve such a setup… could be wrong but let’s roll with it)

so in conclusion, likely 7v2. With 5 Town between me and the aforementioned, that leaves a supposedly game winning PoE (?) of Thoth/Wylted/Shining/Rex

Fair enough

Yes. I didn’t realise I claimed it as Citizen.

VTL Thoth

Thoth being unhappy with OGI being used for a read could come from scum.

I will unvote if you get a full 8 hours :)
