i'm totally fine with only the pairings made so far going on i think

Only 6 pairs out of 8 and 5 slots dead before 1st dance?

Don’t you think that’s kind of risky with the coin mechanic?

The fewer the pairs, the greater the chance of yololynching, no?

i townread 0 of the remaining gents

if we go with 6 we skip first dance

[Taly]

With 6 pairs, I think we skip Pre-Dance because of just 12 people.

I'm going to get to

Urist

and

Krazy

tonight, probably, and some thoughts on a few posts.

I'm being very lax at this point, and am waiting for a flip and my PT.

this is actually only a risk if Vedith is scum, and one of the remaining unpaired ladies is also scum, and that scum lady has a standing offer near deadline

so, pretty remote risk, leaving the remaining unpaired is actually one way to skip dance 1, which is, arguably, strictly protown

The main people who would be unhappy with that would be moment/thebrie/drworm probably, given it means guaranteeing we will be playing an 18 day game

but the majority of remaining paired couples could probably handle playing out dance 2 in 10 days

I mean First Dance.

...this math test earlier today that plagued mine and the souls of 30 other misfortunate people have taken its toll.

10 days for half a unit of math work... 4 lessons and only 3 less-than-hour long classes.... and I only had time to schedule 1 tutoring appointment.

Just going to say my brain's dead and I'm not optimistic with my results.

although a minor thought here is that it means dance 2 starts in the middle of marathon weekend which is a bit unfortunate

That’s true.

[Vedith]

I can't see all 5 going through without pairing.

Well it's astronomically likely that at least one of them is town. It's very likely that two of them are town.

I currently feel there's about a 50% chance that everyone unpaired is town.

Why would moment/Brie/Worm be unhappy about that in particular?

[Something_Smart]

Actually, I changed my mind. I want to pair with Urist.

I slept though 2nd dance last time.

even if this is the case we have the pairings that matter

[Krazy]

referring to the lost week of potential game time in dance 1

means the pace of the game will accelerate significantly probably

I know some players (you, me, RC, Ank) dgaf about the extra week, but I would think it would be maybe a minor concern for the people who have been struggling to stay caught up

although maybe? an overall lower post count/day, depending on who scum kill over intermission

[Krazy]

I slept though 2nd dance last time.

that was with a pre-determined lynch order generated by an IC

dance 2 could go fast but it is much less likely

Which ones?

moment/brie and nd/dannflor

Rereading Allo's posts, followed by rereading Urist's posts.

moment/brie and nd/dannflor

How confident are you on Nancy town?

[RadiantCowbells]

all 4 of those ppl are near 100%

Well, we at least have 20 hours. You know, it would be kind of hillarious if the entire scumteam was amongst those 5 but I really doubt it’s that easy.

Yeah, the absence of an IC mechanic, changes everything.

How about this? We pair me/Urist, then you or Ank leaves. In the case where you are town and correct, it only makes a difference if me and Urist are both scum (which you agree is negligible), but it helps us in the case where you're scum.

Is that fair?
