Timid isn't neutering you though. Inactive is. Unless you rate the proposals (that have to be sanctioned by the majority) more powerful than the actual abilities if the roles.
Inactive would obviously be worse. Not being able to ever propose something is still bad. From your current PoV "Can never be King" isn't a big deal but you can't predict if that's the same situation a few days down the road. It's the equivalent of like, not being allowed to make wagons. And yes proposals in general have to be accepted by everyone except for the last one, if people can't agree the last proposal just happens so people's personal preferences are going to bleed through on these. This gets way worse the less people there are/the less proposals are from town.
momo wrote:Also giving people a role because you like them isn't legit. You give them roles to further your wincon (town or scum). If he's scum, the role he gives you furthers his wincon if you are scum. If he's town, that means he thought you were town.
RC never made a proposal so other then a throwaway comment you can't know if he really would have tried to do that. I'm not talking about the role though, I'm talking about your conviction that that slot had to be scum which, I'm still in doubt of, and the way you switched me in as a scumread around the time I said I don't think he's scum, which accuses me of being world's worst scum player. Titus is pretty easy for people to read on top of that so I'd rather lynch someone more null like Vecna, Gamma or Iconeum.
In post 358, Iconeum wrote: Why would you care for being a hated townie? That doesn't mean you get lynched for it. The soft defence for RC here is bad. I'd lynch RC today, and if this flips scum you are next. Though I know i'm not Original in saying this… just my thoughts as well
My problem is obviously not related for being lynched for it buddo and I think if you'd actually read what I've been saying instead of parroting momo you'd know that.

Look elsewhere, all his reasoning is completely believable from a town pov.

I actually want the D5 role but I'd prefer you just give it to us as opposed to banking on someone dying for no reason.
I mean I don't care. I literally don't care. I want Momo dead, I'm just offering whatever safeties everyone else wants against me being scum.
The RC patented raw arrogance just push it through everyone else is stupid method isn't going to work.

Also RC, I genuinely enjoy playing with you. You are a great player and it's fun watching you play. I would never lynch you just because you're you. I want to lynch you because you're scum.
Such a satisfying read

In post 194, popsofctown wrote:Ew, preflip associatives. Why do people do those? Especially day 1?
this prob has nothing to do with this game but I see this alot and I think it's stupid as shit. A player thinks X is scum or Y is town and if thats true then they think blah blah blah. You don't need a flip to think that and one of towns best weapons is their voice so throwing out their opinion is just pro-town play.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

you 'still' have not addressed my read on Momo, why?
I have, and long before this silly feud started.
momo is the towniest slot in the game
. He was when I said it and he still is.

What I'm trying to decide is YOUR alignment, because deciding that could be the difference between us winning or losing the game (as either alignment. If you're town and I SR you we lose. If you're scum and I TR you we lose. If you're scum and I SR you we may have a chance. If you're town and I TR you our chance is bigger).

So I think I'm not passing any official proposals until I've decided on your slot.
Im changing my mind

That's all cool and dandy, but I would like to see you give your reads so I can have an idea of your provision linking theory to practice.
In due time. Wanna let the dust settle first.

In post 245, Lil Uzi Vert wrote:I think giving timid to those kind of players makes it harder for scum to push on them. I can easily see lynch bait proposing something poorly thought out and getting pushed for it. Inactive makes it so that way scum can’t try to suggest giving these kind of players roles they may mishandle or just not best suited for.
But you're looking at this from only one angle. Lynchbait will always be lynchbait and your plan makes it more likely for them to make it to LyLo. Remember: Just because a player is lynchbaity doesn't mean they couldn't have rolled scum. Even more, if they are town taking them to LyLo is still risky because they could get lynched then.

We need to find equilibrium between handing our strong roles to strong town reads, strong players and keeping these strong TRs/players alive (so far I haven't found a proper formula but I'm working on it)
That’s fine. The longer the game goes on, the easier it’ll get to differentiate who is misunderstood but still actively trying to game solve from scum.

I don't care about being "obvious" as much as I want to be "useful" town. That said, I think I have obv!towned already.
Then maybe you should lobby for something else other than neighbor. I think the likelihood of Nero’s alignment will become more apparent and clear as he posts.

Hmm.. why would this cause someone to become inactive? It just makes them a vanilla townie or a goon. Although, if your hunch is true, I doubt a goon would replace out.

I thought that was the purpose of his wall of colors. :?: My primary issue with Momo is that I do not believe him when he says all of his scumreads were independent.
Knowing that you’re essentially a vanilla townie in a role madness game is demoralizing.
