Lynch/kill Strats

We haven't really talked about this since D1 is mostly just us trying to scum hunt (or in my case go after someone I'm pretty confident is town. >_>) to look natural, but what strategy do we want to use for offing people?

Do we want to peg scum early since Town is easier to kill off later on?

Or since we're both BP would trying to off Town Power at every convenient spot be more prudent?

I was kind of thinking of taking a shot in the dark at our inactives for our first shot, but that's more of a non-committal shot.

Like it can't possibly be bad for us to lynch scum and be on that lynch, but if we can misslynch successfully onto something as strong as a Jack with a flavor scan, we have all the time in the world to try and shoot scum.

Play as if you're town. During the day, just think of us as a two-man town mason cell.

During the night, we aim for scum. Depending on how things go, you could claim some of the kills as Grunt.

But ultimately, here's the thing: if we are successful in killing scum, town will naturally assume we are town. That is the best way to not get ourselves lynched. Let scum kill the town power. Like, if we get three days in and there's 3-4 scum dead, maybe we can start shooting town. But don't overthink this, especially during the day--just be town!

No I understand the day play to scum hunt normally, I don't need to be told. >_>

But you're 100% on aiming for scum during the night?

Despite my ego in the above post, can we talk about how bad I am? Damn, I'm bad.

I do think I recovered from that "slip" saying surefire scum (WHICH TECHNICALLY ISN'T EVEN A SLIP BECAUSE I LITERALLY HAVE NO IDEA OF WHO IS TOWN OR SCUM.) and have Spiral believing I'm town, just judging from his attitude shift.

My only fear is Blade now. Not sure he bought it.

I think Corrik is the smarter lynch to back here, but I'm not going to back off of Zara for a while here.

corrik might be town, but I've convinced him I'm town.

BRILLIANT.

I'm okay with either in this tie, but I'd rather not get flavor-scanned.

Not sure if he does actually. But might be smarter for neither of us to move here and let them decide it.
