Imo it'd be more a scum move than a town one.

I mean why would a town want people to dither around till the last minute and risk a possible mislynch due to EOD voting scramble?

That said, i'll stick to this wagon as we need to get people to claim and wagon hopping won't help with that.

Do you get the impression Pooka doesn't want to play?
He doesn't give me that vibe. I find him perhaps more engaged than previous game (#68) where he was town power role.

There are other thing in-between doinh nothing and voting as soon as case is presented against someone.

I did the math (it wasn't easy) and it came out the odds are... high.
Also being town in one game has nothing to do with being one in following. Lift could explain it to you I'd bet.

First tell me, what do you think of ZFR's case?

Carefull. If you stand in front of a ̶m̶i̶r̶r̶o̶r̶ thread and type Micro 13 times, he'll appear and bump you.


Now that I look at it, it wasn't very OMGUSy...
What do you think? As someone who has played instead of modded.

Problem is if we wait until a "good"(to you or anyone) case is presented to start building wagons...especially on D1.....time will likely be in short supply if we need to change course.

I say (on D1 at the very least) get people to claim range and then pick the most viable lynch candidate.

Thanks for doing the mathumacations.

I read that as tongue-in-cheek remark that was supposed to bring up another friendly duo rather than pull away attention from the first one but maybe I misunderstood. I do hope you're not pointing it out of it only because it concerns yourself and Joe.

And as a side-note - don't be too palsy-walsy with Joe, mkay? I know he's attractive and muscular but he's spoken for ;)


Is this supposed to be ZFR marking blotunga for death?


How about today?

Hunter isn't really a newcomer, he's a returning player. He may not be a regular participant like most of our cast but is quite capable and doesn't deserve to be cut any slack whatsoever.


Obviously the odds between games are irrelevant (I'm sure Lift would be telling you so if he was playing :P). And it should be obvious that in most normal games a player is statistically more likely to be Town than scum. I know you put a smiley at the end of this question and is probably not meant to be absolutely serious but the decision to include it at all as one of the arguments behind joining the wagon weirds me out a bit.


All caught up.


I didn't like how blotunga got entangled in the rules topic - said he read and understood them but clearly didn't pay [enough] attention to them. On the other hand I think ZFR is putting a bit too much weight on that which gives me pause along with the fact how quickly some people decided to hop in on that wagon. I'm somewhat concerned that this might have been a Town blunder and ZFR decided to bank on it for an easy early lynch which blotunga has been in past games. Again on the first side - I don't like the OMGUS return vote either but it might make sense in the situation described previously so not sure about that.

All in all, ZFR's vote I can understand. His strong conviction not so much but maybe it's legit. Pooka's and GH's votes on the other hand seem forced.


pre-post edit: I see ZFR backed off which makes me feel a bit better about his original push as him backing off like that wasn't really called for as more people than not seem to be in support or neutral about it.


Pooka and GH still feel off.

Yes, I'll be honest I found your reaction a bit opportunistic too, without committing to a vote.

Oh wow. I thought the winky ;D meant you were joking, but this is actually "semi serious"?

I won't bother.

Damn, you guys are active today. I refresh once before posting and in the meantime a whole bunch of new posts pop up (Vitek even referenced a lot of things I did :D)


Does that work?? You type someone's name 13 times and they bump you???

There!

Thanks for the correction....I will add hunter to the "would lynch D1" pile then.

As I sorta said above/before....if we wait on D1 until we have a case to start building wagons, we might end up scrambling at EOD.

To avoid this, imo we should try to get someone to claim range and then decide if they're a viable lynch choice or not. On D1 we have little to go on usually, so one player is near as good as any other.

(Well beyond the newcomers who i'm giving the usual D1 slack)

Suspect who you want.

That said, should we suspect anyone who builds ANY wagon before the 24 hour mark before EOD or what?

After several people's reaction to my accusation I no longer think there is a good chance it will lead to a lynch. But who knows.

Or are you asking how strongly I feel about it today? I already replied: the OMGUS cooled my jets a bit.

That's what I meant but you can forget it as it was covered in later posts. Usually I write while I read and my content is mostly in order referenced posts. When I have time and things call for it I go back to redact things but I'm in my lunch break right now and didn't feel like wasting time. I think I get where your current standing is.

No we don't.

Barring a scum admitting being scum, we have very little to go on....so yeah, imo we do.

No we don't.

If claiming is so great, why wait? Let's all do a claim right now and see what comes out of it.

Claiming early only helps scum and should never be Town's goal. There is a reason cryptoclaiming was invented: it allows for early claiming without giving scum any advantage. But since that shifted the balance too much in Town's favour, it was banned since.

I meant single claims of a few people at most only, and preferably those the player base suspects the most...not a mass claim....plz stop trying to make it look like a worse idea than it is.

I disagree, on D1 at least...and if only a few lynch candidates of the type listed above in this same post).

(Btw we didn't do much claiming early in the past game, and we still lost)
