M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!

[ghug]

(1) Can someone link me to the Aaro post that spells this out? I may misunderstand the description.
(2) The upside is that I have more info. I'm bored, and if the scum already know, I want to know. It's unlikely to make any difference. It would tell us all whether there is another PR hiding out there or not, which doesn't help with much. Obviously, only makes sense if we're positive that scum would know emc's role.

Why are you bored? Do you know who the remaining scum are?

This implies you find Balkis boredom scummy? Is that the case?

I think it implies that there's something useful he could be doing with his time if he's town.

Looking for scum in past interactions?

Teaching his children to hunt for scum to give us an army of Balkis?

Feasting on Chipotle?

With this understanding of the rules in mind, it's a little more possible that the blackmailer role was used as a tracker red herring. But, because there was no guarantee we had a tracker, and scum would have been quite motivated to blackmail a Town Investigator, I think we probably are best served thinking of EMC as clear.

If the scum team happened to forfeit a blackmail visit on the off chance that (a) there was a tracker who (b) targeted Bunny, I think I'm prepared to lose to that team. If they were worried about tracker, it would have made more sense for Bunny to simply stay home. Yeah, EMC is clear.

Can't see much point in the former when we can't put real pressure on people until after Jamie is dead, but you might have a point on the latter two

I don't know, but he's seemed disengaged this game and that's really different from when I played with him before and he was town. In that game he was so energized after a scumflip and when teacon died here he didn't seem to care much. And now we've got two more scum, and he's bored... I get that the pace is weird but it just isn't the investigative Balki I was expecting.

There is a whole lot of game to look through, and there's no real downside to doing it earlier rather than later.

If I am Scum!Balki, should I be teaching my children to pretend to be hunting for scum? Or would I be pretending to teach them to scum hunt, when actually trying to lead them into miskilling townies?

No real upside either - Might as well wait 3 days and come at it with fresh eyes

You should legitimately teach them to scumhunt, for use in future games, but serve as a man in the middle for all their communication and alter it if they get too smart.

Yeah, and another thing town!Balki did in that game was encourage everyone to reread.

[celaph]

I'm confused as to why there is this feeling that tomorrow is rather a mute day because we're already set on our kill. What would you want to be saying then that you can't say tomorrow?

[ghug]

@kgray, what do you make of the fact that Bunny pushed to kill Balki D2? Do you think he bussed two days in a row?

It's because the game moves and creates new information via voting patterns and new flips. If there's no pressure to get a daykill right, people won't take as many actions that help you read them.

I mean, two of us are going to die between now and the day after next. It seems to me that hearing from those people would be an upside.

[Hellenic Riot]

Someone with experience of scum Bunny talking about his scum meta would be quite useful, actually

I think Bunny pushing Balki D2 makes Balki look townier. I said this to bozo earlier when he asked if I thought Balki was bussing Bunny D1.

If the scum team choose to kill any of us over the 3 outed clears then we should just take the compliment and feel good about ourselves

The us refers to town in general, not just you and I. Though I think my point still stands that I want to hear more of their thoughts, particularly Tom's as he has fresh eyes on this all.

I do know this feeling of being let down by your heroes.
