There never was a college war to begin with, and I can imagine the scum even pushing forward for such a little peace treaty and kill people like me.
I called for an end to the probing attacks, I never claimed we were involved in all-out war. Probing attacks themselves don't do much damage on their own, but cumulatively they can start to hurt. My request was partially selfish, as I had been on the receiving end of two in a row at the time I made the request. In any case, your argument is ridiculous. College in-fighting weakens the town due to hp attrition. Scum don't get automatic kills in this game, and even unprotected people can survive scum attacks if they are sufficiently healthy. So, the more hp the town as a whole has, the harder it is for the scum to get kills. In addition, the starting heads of the colleges are guaranteed innocents. Attacks against them decrease the town's chances of eliminating the scum. While the colleges will inevitably have to fight it out, it's in our collective interests to postpone that fighting until the scum are eliminated, or at least significantly reduced.

Kudos on your attempt to get the town to kill each other.
