I think I can say why the town is losing. Because so many people just sit back and post a couple of lines about the flavour of the day and that's it. Seriously there are so many people who do this and it just makes the game so much more difficult and much less interesting.
I don't do this. I go out there and I post as many things as I possibly can. And sometimes I am wrong and people like to make a big fap off deal about that. You're missing the point. The point is that most people realise I am town from what I am saying, and it rules me out as a suspect. Conversely, this is the reason why I am not so good when I am scum - people analyse what I am saying - I give them a lot to analyse, remember! - and realise I am up to no good!
My suspicions this time around have not been so good, no, but I think I've played good games in that I've given everyone a lot to analyse and they've mostly analysed me correctly as town. Making people realise you are town is perhaps more important than finding scum, although if you can do both yeah rock on.
Why do people only contribute a small bit? It's not fun to do that. Yeah you might make mistakes and hey you might get yourself lynched (conversely though, if your intentions are good, you are less likely to get yourself lynched!) but who cares? It's only a game. Go out there and wear your heart on your sleeve.
Really, there is not a lot I or anyone else can do when so many people contribute the bare minimum and think that's okay. So don't just come in and go "Yeah Hotti's acting weirdly he might be scum he might not be. ##vote: Hotti." No! What's everyone else doing? Ema's been acting weird, call her out on it. Miles has been contradicting himself, so go through his posts and point them out. That is mafia.
