Oh wow, yeah....that's definitely a policy lim at best. Then again, with how active some players have been others are getting ignored and scum could coast. We're more likely to hit town than scum today anyway so I'd be willing to move there just to get to D2, but there are definitely places I'd rather be.
I think showing no interest in the game unless you're getting run up is kind of scummy
I would say it's definitely anti-town, but what specifically makes it scummy to you? (Too lazy to look it up, but is something like
Survivor
normal?)

Survivor is not Normal because benign third parties are not Normal and Survivor is immensely unfun, has zero player agency, leads to kingmaker scenarios, and makes setups hard to balance.

Survivor should never be Normal.

I repeat,
Survivor should never be Normal.

I will actually go as far as to say this applies to the ToS Survivor which has a factional 4-shot Activated Bulletproof ability

That's fair....also just looked up the Normal Roles page, forgot that existed. I'm still not sold on it being explicitly scummy, but that does make it scummier.

Im imagining a game in which we vote, but majority voteholder get bulletproof and a gun instead of eliminated. idk. Im sure its been run before.

We're losing focus on a wagon again.
beeboy - Everyone thought this game was made to troll pie but it was really made to troll pisskop.
Almost50 pisskop: Overall, that's a townie slot. Don't ask for specifics because with PK everything can be interpreted either way. It's probably WHEN he says/does things that matter, so it's more of a matter of conception rather than solid reasoning.

it seems like every wagon that is pushed is doomed to fail

CSF is a deepwolf but this is Day 1, and Psyche is apparently townread

I think ZZX makes the most sense now because they claimed and self-voted already.

Basically its a day one wagon and people are scum reading you for shitty reasons

He definitely does self vote as town too, but I found games where he does it as scum

I've looked at and quoted past games as scum before, and I'm sure that CSF would admit she has too.

ah forget it i know scum can make helpful posts. i suppose it would be more interesting if the post were substantiating a zzzx townread but this is in the opposite direction

always down to fade the Vanilla claim. We dont need any more claims this day phase.

If Zzzx is town, scum moved off of them after that Vanilla claim because it's a low priority fade and zzzx adds discohesion into the town.
