It could be a scumslip if he knows he recruited...or was recruited and knows there are 4 scum.
He's presuming you've already chosen who to recruit, I think.

Bozo's not the slippy sort.
But why create a "what would you do as scum" survey, in which some of the answers are already filled in for you by Bozo?

The entire thing is a waste of time tbh, like a lot of things Bozo usually does.
I largely agree with this assessment, but it's usually better to answer than to waste time on it like we're doing now.

It's also a kind of interesting philosophical question, tbh. I can't see it doing a whole lot for this game, but it'll probably inform my meta assessments long-term.

Very important question. Can the fruit vendor choose what fruit they give someone?

What would you do then if you were scum with HR, Maniac, and Macca?
Why did you pick these people in particular?
Is there an echo in here?

What? No he isn't, he's asking what we'd have done in the first 24 hours, before anyone was recruited.
They happen at the same time though.

Do you really think bozo of all people got sloppy with the setup?
Isn't it funny how you are chainsawing people and refusing to allow Bozo to be questioned instead of just waiting for him to answer.
Bozo answering this question isn't going to give us any new information, and I doubt my answering it for him will change his answer at all.

Due to the economic effects of Brexit, only turnips and crab apples are available.

No, they don't happen at the same time. Bozo is asking what you would do with your $90 if you were scum, which includes the option of recruiting someone, but at the time of making the decision you have only 3 people on the scumteam. So he can't be assuming someone was recruited prior to the 24-hr deadline, and it doesn't make sense to ask what people would do based on their teammates if he's giving the wrong number of teammates.

And no, I don't think he is, that's why I'm concerned about it. I'm not sure I buy Bunny's theory that it was a scumslip because bozo knows mafia recruited someone, but I do think it's possible it was an attempted townslip. But then bozo would expect people to have this reaction and not believe he'd slip that way so.... I don't know.

Well I want to hear Bozo's explanation, rather than hearing from you in the role of Bozo's spokesperson.

Correct. I think bozo knows there are 4 scum.
That's based on their use of 3 other players when questioning Jamie, right? Is this Bozo slipping?

My sense of Bozo as a player is they dive so deeply into mechanics as town. I somewhat feel that's what they're starting to do here. I also find them too careful and parsed with what they say. Probably the worst question to send their way is a closed question.

Bozo, why did you settle on the number 3 when suggesting scum partners?

Apparently I was not clear, I would like everyone to please answer this question:

What would you have chosen if you were scum and were making the decision for the mafia?
I would probably go:
Restless spirit
Odd-Night Tracker
Fruit vendor (the give the maf money? I think I read that somewhere?)
Double voter (provided the vote works more than once)

Frankly, the biggest reason is a don't like roles with limited uses, I'd be scared to use them until it's too late.

Important note, I did not do the math for this, I don't know how much debt it is, it may be bad.

@ghug you even answered bozo's question by saying you'd recruit, so how can you say you think his question assumes the recruiting already happened?

Why are you going so far out of your way to explain why bozo did what he did?

Those who've played with Macca, is he crafty enough to fake this townslip?

1. I think bozo may have assumed anyone in their right mind would recruit.
2. I gave my opinion in the moment. I'm harping on about it because others are and I find the discussion uncompelling.

I'm surprised the Europeans didn't offer y'all fruit to stay away from them forever.

Actually, kgray answer that question first. Then Jamie can.

Macca uses they/them pronouns, and if we hadn't been talking about the number of people on the scumteam then I'd say no, and they're certainly town, but since it's been in discussion I suppose there's a *slight* chance it's fake.
