Is that for me?? Nod told me I was a GOLIATH [something, something, something] and I said I won't be outing the rest of it for <reasons>. Role description though was in the mod's opening post inside the PT. In other words, I wasn't told my alignment or my abilities in my role PM. Just the name and a link to the PT.
In effect it sounds like another hydra with two known heads. I don't see the benefit to town to yeeting any of them. I'm kinda with Blossom on this, it prolly does more harm than good.
I wholeheartedly believe that dragging days to the deadline doesn't actually help town that much with more information, ESPECIALLY on D1 and ESPECIALLY in fast moving games
what it does, imo, is inundate the thread with noise that makes it hard to find the important posts to find scum. plus, the added negative that it tends to lead to more town apathy with a lack of flips and action and endless back and forhts
I think it's much more pro-town on D1 to find a slot that seems scummy, run them up, get their flip and then proceed from there on D2 with the added benefit of being able to start looking at VCA and being able to use NKA
I can tell this guy is impressed with our top quality obvtowning. You're welcome friendo.

this slot is making it difficult to play and it feels like they're doing this deliberately. can you block one player's posts and read the thread? kinda like an opposite iso?
why dont you just skip over the post when you see the powerpuff girls icon
i feel all these posts are very not genuine -- it's super easy to glance over posts as you read if you don't want to read someone's posts
goddamnit a50/superbowl that's awfully convenient. "we have a pt, and we all investigate as third party, but not to worry! because we are actually town, and you will take our word for it."
that being said, that seems like exactly the kind of role schadd adds to the game to fw town, so i'll begrudgingly townbin the "masons".
this gamma wagon feels too fast and too easy to be a wagon on scum. i'm wagering that there's at least two or three scum on that wagon, maybe more.

I don't think it's possible to lynch mafia d1 in a game this size unless most of them are afk
In post 1534, Menalque wrote:it's more a question of I'm not sure I'm confident enough in them collectively town to let scum bring all 3 of them to lylo by the end of the game and then have to decide if they are scum fake claiming together or genuinely miller masons. I'm undecided where I'm coming down on the question, but I don't think it's a horrible take to say that resolving that ambiguity and forcing scum to kill there (and not on other PRs) is a good thing to do earlier rather than later UNLESS there is a high level of consensus that this is definitely town/town-aligned 3p
I normally agree but waiting here makes sense from your thought process no? We have the time to wait until almost-Lylo, in which case if you still think all 3 of us are scum gambiting you can elim one of us and head to lylo with a conftown.
the problem is that as lylo grows closer people become less willing to make clarifying policy Guillos and tend to feel more pressure to pursue their top SR
In post 1547, Nero Cain wrote:like ok mena, wanting to hurry up and lynch Gamma just seems incredibly scummy to me. I mean, my gut reaction was that Gamma was scum and maybe he is but I don't see a good reason to end the day so quickly.
Also Nero I think you're looking at this as a "hurry" scenario when you're really the one who's trying to slow down the natural pace of the wagon.

maybe not, but if so then you really might as well get the flip done and move on, no?

gamma seems scummy here?
scummy enough, sure
I'd also be fine with Taylor or plus, the important thing is to pick one, build up consensus votes and get that claim/flip
I'm not saying we have to milk every second of the deadline but I don't really see the harm in holding off for a day or 2.
I mean, give Vecna a chance to get prodded FFS!
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.

Sure agree with this, also let the man claim but after that what are we really waiting for? More of the star content that has been produced thus far?
I'm just waiting for people to come around and recognize that BH deserves the next hammer.
“Why was I chosen?'
'Such questions cannot be answered,' said Gandalf. 'You may be sure that it was not for any merit that others do not possess. But you have been chosen, and you must therefore use such strength and heart and wits as you have.”
So I think a lot of players they think they are some kind of "end game" player or...like I always see players say they are trash early game and shine like a star near endgame. So this game off genuine to me and generally genuineness is towny.
Am I like on to something here or is this just stupid and I should ignore my faulty gut?

Me too. I am tempted to ask the mod if she noticed my crumb as soon as I made it. I mean, she should, but she sometimes misses my most obvious of crumbs too.
I feel like ppl constantly not knowing if things are a joke or not kinda proves exactly why joke posting leads to confusion and is thus bad.
I'll be back later and decide the fate of Gamma.

joke posts lead to confusion
confusion leads to stupid posts
stupid posts lead to scum reads
being scum read as town leads to miselimination
miseliminations lead to scum victory
