I didn't know you were here. Care to share?

I don't know, I didn't think that far ahead.

Honest? Maybe. Helpful? Maybe. Conversation starter? Not really.

Hmm...do you think if there were just 1 member of the scum team they'd have a harder or easier time?

Didn't ask me this but I think it's interesting so I'll throw my own opinion in.

I think being solo scum would be easier because you don't need to focus on distancing/bussing/interactions with your team. You would only need to focus on generating fake reads that don't give off that you know too much.

Depends on whether or not they get lynched before the game ends. If they don't, probably quite a bit easier.

Never change bo, never change.

That's what I'm wondering. 1 scum alone doesn't have anyone else they're interacting with. The extra knowledge is easier to hide. There's no flips that reveal anything. So why are bigger scum teams usually considered more fair? What about scum hunting is hard?

Did anyone else hear a whooooshing sound as a joke flew over Bunny's head?

I heard it, just took a long time to get to me.

[worcej]

Trying to figure out what Bungo is doing with all these questions lol

Are you doing this for benefit of new players? or

I think he's just feeling pressured to talk. I don't think I've been asked a more needless question than whether or not the game would be easier if the mechanics were different.

I'm prodding your mind. I've never tried this before. What would you like to talk about?

You picked the wrong person to try to mind prod if you want my opinion. Find someone more receptive.

[worcej]

Even their "non-serious answers" say something.

What did my non-serious answer say?

Among other things:

1) You don't really want to be talking to me, even though you engaged me at the start
2) You'd rather not start any other conversation by ignoring me and engaging with anyone else, but yet you still felt compelled to respond to me
3) You think you're smarter than I am, and want me to know it and feel intimidated
4) You have nothing better to be discussing, even as you disdain this line of conversation.

Maybe those conclusions are wrong, but they're my gut reaction what I'm getting from you.

As a witness: I agree with 1 and 3. 2 and 4 come off as stretches.

[Jamiet99uk]

No, I don't think you did:

"kgray already explained" -> "[the case against] kgray [ I have] already explained"

Maybe I was being too terse.

Oh, I see. Yes you were being far too terse, to the point that you didn't make any sense.

There's being concise and to the point, and then there's whatever you did there.

Either way, how come you didn't notice I had already explained it?

I was doing a Flavius, compiling comments as I caught up.

I don't normally do it that way, and I shan't again as clearly it causes redundant posts.

Other than #2, that isn't bad.

I was close!

[worcej]

I really don't care lol

For those who will take the time to read my string, this is town!bo imo

This doesn't make sense. If you were catching up you'd still have seen what he was referencing by the time you got to that post.

[worcej]

I'm going with town for emc and bo_sox just because they are actually playing D1.

I was going to say Bunny is scum with kgray and we only need to find the last one, but maybe I'm being too hasty.

Why would emc playing D1 make him town? He has been all types of roles (3P, mafia, and town) and not played D1 before.

[worcej]

I want to say the scumteam is Bunny-kgray-brain, but half the players have not posted yet, so I'll refrain.

Yet you said this out loud. You usually have a reason when you do things, so what was it for this?

[worcej]

Did kgray say anything remotely like this to you (or to anyone else) last game:

No, she was very staid.

Exactly. Radical change. Different alignment.

It takes three data points to make an average...

[worcej]

Why do you think I'm doing it?

Well...I considered this for a while. I think you're seeing how much you can provoke jamie. There are two reasons for this, one is towny, and one is scummy:

1) Town!Xorxes knows how jamie responds to prods and has a read on him
2) Scum!Xorxes knows jamie is good for distracting town and getting heat off of him

But as you well know, scum!xorxes likes to buddy Jamie, not provoke him.

And utilizing the same argument/mindset you're applying to kgray, I could say you are 'radically changing' and trying to utilize your meta to get towncred and dismiss this possibility.

[worcej]

also xorxes is town and not creepy
mistaken
but not creepy

Totally mistaken, or partially mistaken?

mistaken in me being mafia.
unequivocally.
just got out of my hot tub
quarantine really sucks

One of the first time I've seen hot tub and sucks in the same post/statement.

[brainbomb]

it amazes me how many people can hide under the umbrella of the phrase

PR hunting

and seem high above scrutiny in their reasoning.

id scumread for such simplicity, but pomposity is the soul of wit.

Damo looks extremely different but I still think emc is scummiest

##CALL GM

I am concerned that our brand new player may not show up.

Do you have any subs available, and can you check if SarahK has read the role PM? (I don't expect a public answer to the second question).

GM Note: I believe Sarah is in different timezone. I'll ping her if she hasn't posted in the next few hours, and I do have a replacement or two lined up if need be.

[brainbomb]

BunnyGo's initial response to Brainbomb's little Vengeful poll, his evasiveness when questioned about it, and then his U-turn and back-tracking, look pretty scummy to me.

seems pretty wild to imagine that a question this simple would just leave bunny fit to be tied.

[brainbomb]

pretty quasi vecna esque entry there worcej. late too

[brainbomb]

Fuck me... 15 pages to get caught up on...

Pardon my Flavius posting, I will try to minimize it as best as possible.

why??

[worcej]

If I had to reach for a read here id say its odd worcej hasnt posted. hes the strangest name to see as a non poster

Quarantine life-ish. I am working from home because my mother is a non-confirmed COVID-19 case (has all symptoms but isn't in a bad enough position to need to go to hospital) and I interacted with her on day 6 of her 14 day window of being infectious.

So I am now stuck at home until Saturday, which will mark my 14 day window since being around my mother. My work is anxiously awaiting any news from me because if I am infected, I probably passed it off to a few people because my job has me working closely with a small group of people (6 to be exact) that would need to also immediately quarantine.

And my wife has my office, since she got forced into working from home weeks ago, so I am sitting on the floor in my family room with one monitor and a laptop when I am used to my own office (with three monitors) in a paper mill, being molested by cats and my dog because I am normally not home on weekdays and they are like 'Dad is here?!?! LET'S ANNOY HIM WHILE HE TRIES TO WORK!'

So yesterday was a lot of adjusting. Also, not wearing regular pants really messes up with your routine...
