Welcome to scum chat. Feel free to copy and paste your role PMs here directly if you choose. I will accept night actions directly in this chat.
Good luck scum!

3 things 1) I did not rig the RNG, I promise. 2) You were not only rolled scum, you were the FIRST person to roll scum. 3) I laughed for a good few minutes.

Hey, hey, hey, what's everyone up to this fine night? I'm Lucio, once per game I can shield everyone from night actions, except actions with a strong prefix.

boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo -oooooooooooooooooo We needed that with the number of power roles and it'd be balanced knowing Kyan will be lynched within two seconds of day start. Hey, hey, hey, what's everyone up to this fine night? I'm Lucio, once per game I can shield everyone from night actions, except actions with a strong prefix. Shield the team or everybody in the game? -------------- If my last scum chat is any indication I'll be posting... A lot. Tell me if it's too much.

The win condition seems pretty clear that there is only one scum team, makes sense when we're five I guess.
With a bunch of roles and a shield for us all I'm guessing there's more than one non scum killing role.
I suck at everything scum. Melonrabbit knows my game quite well.

Oh, my roleblock is "permanent" until I move it. That kinda makes it sound like there are day roles I can also block.
Sorian, can I block day roles as well?

"We just need to be so town the medic heals one of us" Sawneeks will be out patron saint. So a one time blocker. But it blocks all actions, including detectiving and doctoring. And I don't know when the block happens. That's pretty worrisome tbh.

Uhhh, I don't understand the "On a night you would die" part.
Does it only trigger if anything tries to kill you? Do you also die when it triggers or does it save you from anything?

Post by kyanrute on Oct 11, 2016 3:08:41 GMT -8
My interpretation of it is that if Barry were to die during a night, the kill and all other actions on him would be prevented and/or return a no result.

I don't know anything about Overwatch other than it being similar to TF2. We don't have any fake claims so I guess our role names are NAI and we need to come up with a town role that suits them. I kinda hope they don't decide to do a mass claim  Unless town only has two useful roles tho

Oh! I misread that! So then yeah it's better than I originally read since it only happens during a night kill.

Unless we all turn into Sawneeks we're not going to clean sweep this game. Town looks pretty good and there are other killing roles. So we need to distance ourselves a bit.
I think it's important to be subtle though. People have a tendency to make mountains out of molehills, but it's hard when there's not much there. In my experience they try to find more "concrete" evidence. If you remember connections town has made in the past, I'm especially curious about PiR where they suddenly found scum near the end, post them here.
Maybe not that important in Gafia where we can't properly isolate posts and post counts are generally lower, but I read a player from Sorian's game mentioning in another game that scum should make a list of every player and mark them any time they mentioned one of them. That way they notice if they start ignoring scum players or perhaps some townies.
Gut reads seem to be alpha omega tho and I'm not very sure how to counter them. I think being likable, but not too likable is good. One very obvious thing I noticed when spectating Pokemon was how scum would make reads all the time which at a distance made it look like they were contributing a lot and made town wary of lynching them. Pocketing (generally agreeing with a player to make them trust you) could also work, but I've never been able to pull it off. I think pocketing works disturbingly well on me when I'm town, but it doesn't seem to be brought up at all in Gafia games.
------------------- And of course, remember you're town. Make independent reads even if they hurt our team, but also be aware that as scum you're biased and will have a much easier time seeing scum as scum, town as town and automatically trusting role claims. An attack on you is weird. You're not scum. Maybe they're scum?

This thought process is probably counter productive, but I wanted to make a comment at Burb: "When are you going to claim miller?" And realized it sort of hinted that I knew Burb wasn't scum  I guess I'm sort of a semi important role, but I'm also a pretty bad scum >_> You all have permission to bus the bejeezus out of me. I feel I'm sort of decent at judging the atmosphere so I'll try to write here whom I think town in general are suspicious of and want to lynch. I'm very bad at reading breadcrumbs, but think I'm really good. Be very careful when I think I've found someone <_< gafia.boards.net/post/42336(Stanley wasn't the cop)

Nice ezekel. Sounds like an unlimited second kill with a wind up mechanism.

Post by Ty4on on Oct 11, 2016 8:15:54 GMT -8
I want to get to know you and your game.
Ezekel, I don't think I've played with you before. I briefly read your vote analysis and hammering in AA, but didn't follow that game. Have you been scum before?
Kyan, I played till lylo with you in LB, but I haven't read the other games where you slayed as scum.
Verelios, I never read it, but from impressions it seems like you did really well in Bloodborne.
Barrylocke, I've played with you in DR where I town read you. Have you been scum in any other games?

To answer assorted questions:
Yes, Ty4on, you block potential day abilities as well. They are locked down from their power if you target them.
To sum up Verelios' power a bit better to everyone is on the same page, he has a 1-shot ability that causes your entire team to be 1-shot bp for a single night.
Kyan's interpretation is right. If a night happens where Barry would die, he retroactively commutes, causing that kill and everything else targeting him to miss that night.

Good morning Sorian
Just to be sure, Ezekel is an unlimited second kill with caveat being blockable wind up?
|
|
|
Post by Sorian on Oct 11, 2016 8:34:42 GMT -8
Yes, he is blockable both nights and kill has to come directly after a wind up. He also is locked from his ability if he is made to do the regular kill.

Have you been scum before? I was scum god Pepsi in the Gods game, but couldnt communicate with scum team. I guess this is my first true scum game with a team I can communicate with. My playstyle.....uhm.....whether scum or town is to post walls of text I guess.

Oh, keeping tabs on who we reply to seems like a good idea. I'm the type of person to be slightly biased so it'll help me spread the love.
