No, that isn't possible. You feed scrolls to the machine by using them as combat items. The two things are synonymous. You cannot do one without the other.
Can you verify that you really don't have any extra 64735 scrolls lying around? I find it more likely that mafia failed to recognize the scroll creation.
I didn't think there was a difference either, but I couldn't account for what was happening otherwise.
No, I have no other 64735 scrolls in my inventory. Unless can you possibly only have one at a time?
This is not SmartStasis's doing, since it has zero handling for scrolls. It doesn't even consider them.
OK, then I guess I'm at a loss to explain why switching to FTF allowed me to finally create the scroll. (However, as noted below, it still failed to create at least one 31337)
Those "adjusted combat item count" messages come from mafia verifying its internal inventory count against the items KoL shows in your combat item drop-down menu. Are there any other instances where you saw a 64067 (-1) message?
Yes.

I'm almost certain you're not actually losing any scrolls (note that it never said you threw the 64067 scroll), there just might be an issue with the way mafia keeps track of them during combat. What I suspect is that mafia might actually be double-counting them in the round you get them, causing it to correct its mistake in the following round.
All I know is that my 334 and 668 scrolls kept getting used, and a 64067 scroll would appear in the session results tab, then disappear again after meeting a rampaging adding machine. I had mafia set to stop on the default goals of a 64735 scroll and a lowercase N, with the addition of a 31337 scroll. I did stop to check my inventory after this happened once to see if mafia was just not registering the 64735 scroll, but there wasn't one. I checked again when I switched my CCS to consult FTF instead of SS.
I also saw this oddness:
No acquisition of a 31337 scroll.
Yes that is odd, and that is after switching to FTF. There are also cases of using 668's and 64067's with no 64735's (without the -1 message) as I showed above, but those were when using SS.
I'm going to attach my chasm'ing so you guys can look at it if you wish. I don't know what to think at this point...
The point that I create the Vesper in the log is when I switched to FTF.
Hmmm... Looking a little closer at the log, I'm also seeing:
Code:
Adjusted combat item count: meat vortex (-1)
