Ohmygosh

I almost gave up on lynching dram today because of that flashwagon. Thank Mith we kept traction.

I’m gonna say that the xyzzy wagon is incredibly scummy based on its timing. If I had to lynch within a few wagons because of deadline, I would never choose someone who has had little to no analysis. You’re basically stealing info from town by denying them flip associations and wagon analysis.

This whole wagon feels designed to put Town in the dark D2. Makes me highly sus of Elbirn.

Lynch needs to happen within Hit/Taly/Flubber/Dram today. Sorry to anyone who feels otherwise, those flips are going to be the best for D2 position, regardless of any specific reads on them.

It’s fair to say your lynch pool is better but given that scum will be in the lurkers, xyzzy is arguably an ok lynch just not as optimal.

i Think you are calling it scummy to get people to come round to your way out of fear though. Interesting


I’ll sit for a bit and see if we are going for flubbber or dram today

Of course there’s an argument that there’s at least 1 scum in the lurkers.
But what makes xyzzy a better lurker to lynch than all the other ones?
Why’s it so important to lynch lurkers that it’s worth jeopardizing D2 information?
And what if xyzzy is Town and Elbirn is wrong? What happens then?

There are far too many ways for a flashwagon like this to go wrong and not nearly enough to go right. And the fact that Elbirn refuses to work with Town on the current lynchpool by go, “Oh, here’s a lurker I don’t like! Flashwagon him!” Is super scummy imo.

That is the most defensive PR claim I’ve ever read.
It’s also very convenient that it won’t help us at all N1...

If I had to pick the scum on the xyzzy wagon it'd be hit and maybe chickadee, definitely not elbirn.

Wouldn't prime-number be covered under "any modifier restricting to a specific set of nights?"

Wasn't this game advertised as mild role madness? I can see a prime number modifier being used for balance purposes or something.

According to wikipedia, 1 is not prime. I majored in music.

Yeah, so do I
But that doesn’t mean that when I don’t like the lynches for the day, I don’t go pick a lurker I don’t like and tell everyone to flashwagon them
That helps town about zero.
