General
Shanba's philosophy of scumhunting:
Scumhunting is trying to find scum. In order to do this, we must make the assumption that scum do certain things more than town. If this assumption is untrue, the game of mafia is pointless. These things can then be broadly divided into three categories:
Category 1: Conscious Scumtells Things that scum do deliberately that they do more often than town. Things like defending a scumbuddy, pushing craplynches andso on go in this category. In order for it to be a category 1 scumtell, there must be a logic for why scum would do it more often than town. Otherwise, it cannot be a category 1 scumtell.
Category 2: Unconscious Scumtells Things that scum do accidentally or subconsciously that are more likely to be done by scum than town. Examples include freudian slips and (for some reason) not voting when voted for in endgame. In order for something to be a cat 2 scumtell, it must be proven that scum do it more often than town.
Category 3: Role-Based Scumtells Role-related things that indicate scum. The most obvious is cop claiming guilty, but also roleblocking on kill-less nights or dodgy roleclaims can be included in this category. There are other Cat3 scumtells too, and they are highly game/theme dependent.
Obviously, this whole thing can be reversed to give towntells: however, towntells are by definition weaker than scumtells as as soon as they are revealed as towntells, scum will begin to use them more often and they will no longer be towntells.
Shanba's philosophy of scum: As scum, so long as you can survive to the end or help one of your buddies to survive to the end, you've won. It is therefore advisable to limit scumtells as far as possible. Cat 2 and 3 scumtells are by definition impossible to consciously avoid (at least without a lot of work). Cat 1 scumtells should therefore be avoided at all costs.
