I think I am supposed to be slightly offended by this.

@Flash - Last game you were open and direct at D1, and it was a pretty towny approach. This game you are hedging a lot. Could you give some explanation why you changed your play or you don't think you changed?

I guess my question to you is - Did you think it was an effective strategy in finding scum? If not, why should I keep following the same strategy? Especially since the noise to signal ratio on D1 is very high.

I hate D1s



I see 83727261848 pages of posts every open.
People love writing when they don't have information but when they get valuable information, they start to think before writing and they write less. Whatever.

There really isn't much information to go on. Why show false confidence in my reads?

When sent their role PM, does Gamora know they have a stone, or not?

You didn't answer my question, at least not directly.

Answering yours, I think it was a really effective strategy. You were pretty obvious town at the end and you blocked my attempt to win the game. This game is not only about finding scum, being townread when you're town is also important.

Why would SK claim? He would just get NKd and the scum team gets the power stone. The only thing SK claiming does is help scum."

This is definitely fake townslip since this happened so early and it's like considered before he said that.

Okay, so Brainbomb's claim, which has not been CC'ed, is entirely plausible.

I wasn't sure that he was scum. His slip was a mistake that implied he wasn't a VT, not that implied he was scum, so I knew there was a good chance he was town. And then we never really got to probe the scum angle because he claimed doctor pretty quickly.
You felt there was a good chance he was town, but you went ahead and pressured him into claiming his role?

What's your case? Your vote for him seemed like a page 3 joke vote.

I had a few posts earlier saying why I think Flash might be scum. After saying those things, others have pointed out scummy things he has done since then.

I **thought** I was obviously town (I don't know how I could have been more obvious)...but if I understand correctly even at the very end the other remaining players were still not confident in it. I am not going to play the same way each time to establish "meta".
