I'll say that is a big maybe...

I'd say Klazam might be scum in that case

What you're missing IMO is that prospect that people like you will think things like this is why scum often play this way. They can coast along and do really little and people will think there's no way they could be so daring. If a supposed towntell is really easy to perform without little effort, then it's not a very good towntell. It relies on players not being aware of the tell in the first place.
i do more as scum than i do as town, though

it's fakeable, but mainly if people don't know the player because supplementary meta wrecks it.

I can see it both ways. I know I'm capable of faking incoherence, but most of the time, it's cuz im just trollin' and people take it seriously.

im in troll mode right now, waiting to pounce somewhere still. i catch a lot of scum with my troll bait. i dont think Pysche is scum here, though.

ok one last try. answer me this: what is it about having a scum role pm that makes it impossible or harder to thoughtstream about topics with negligible relevance to the game?

The self vote is a way of shining an aura of arrogance

I have a gut scum ping on Hu Tao, but it’s too early to push them

its just that ive coasted through soo many games as scum playing the same game flavor leaf is playing. town rarely punishes it (town coast a lot too) so it's often the optimal strategy once time constraints for game participation are taken into account. not trying at mafia is easy and fun
