Vote: Pooky



Since town gets to control at least two of the eliminated each day (the first scroll bearer and at least one of the next two), I think that we should use a points based voting system to rank who gets E'd from the game. I propose that we all pick our top three suspects each day, rank them, first choice gets 4 points, second gets 2, and third gets 1. (The exact number of points is up for debate, but hey ho this is what I settled on as a pretty straightforward one, which I think is better that 3,2,1 at reflecting people wanting to E their first choices). I think adding up the points will give pretty good guidance to the cursed where to pass the scroll and will hopefully be more accurate than treating the scroll as a vengeful shot.

For the first pick, I'm pretty happy sticking with the usual voting, but I'd also be curious to see if using the ranking system produces good elims generally.
This is bad and wrong.

This is how scum wins a game like this.

We need to treat this game like DEFCON. We can vote to kill some people, but Nukes are people's business and their own reads. You can influence whatever you please, but forcing people to pick from the top of a point list only guarantees the scum know EXACTLY what they need to do to win.

also in the event that we hit scum first, we should still do our darndest to hit scum on the second shot. i think its a bad play to hit town on purpose.
if we hit scum first then that person controls who gets hit second
and has absolutely every incentive to hit town on purpose
as town won 2 games | lost 5 games | mislynched 3 times | dayvigged once | nightkilled once | vengekilled once | survived once
as scum won 2 games | lost none | lynched once | dayvigged once
and if you count large normal 204 then i won that game after replacing out as scum

I don't really believe you didn't read the first page of the setup and dont know how many scum there are.

because this is an open setup and you could have just read the first post to answer your question

this is unfortunately par for the course for many town players though from what i remember so personally i would not strongly scum read you for that

missing the fact that this game is nightless on the other hand

As someone that fakes town slips as scum.
I also town slip as town and or can't be bothered to clarify set ups on my own when the thread will do.

Also, ignore me I'm not going to interfere with your bearvestigation.

That's pretty much why I asked about night kills. It was ambiguous whether there was/is a night phase after the 3 flips or I forgot whether this set up is mountainous with no night phase due to sleep deprivation.

Yeah I have enough faith in Noraa's ability to have read this game's setup that Pooky's discovery is enough to want to kill Noraa here.

appearing to forget the game is nightless in particular is probably a bad town slip to do though

unless you really want to appear like you did not check to see if the setup was nightless before signing up for the game
because that is not a town slip

p-edit
and that was the answer i was looking for
UNVOTE:

i will think about voting noraa
but i will probably wait for her response to the vote on her first
as i do not know if noraa is known to read setups or not
as town won 2 games | lost 5 games | mislynched 3 times | dayvigged once | nightkilled once | vengekilled once | survived once
as scum won 2 games | lost none | lynched once | dayvigged once

Prior to this game, Noraa talked about joining this game on discord. It's how I was able to join it, I usually don't look at games like this so they tend to pass me by.

Noraa was definitely excited to play this game, I would find it weird if she did not know the things she was claiming to be ignorant of in that post.

The truth is, this is just the best play on odds as well as likely to flip scum.

In the off chance Noraa is town, she can use that power of the death scroll to interrogate some people and do some solving for us.

And if she's scum I'm sure I'll get the scroll from her instantly for doing this, which will let ME fill that role.

It's win win. People should want to see Noraa die here, I think.

Noraa-Town with the scroll would be terrifying.

Noraa-Scum probly just passes me the scroll and I get to agonize over whether to take Isis with me or not. :3

i still want to see how other people react to this as well
i mean maybe i should vote to help encourage that
but with what discussion has already occurred i do not believe that to be necessary
and ending the day quickly probably is not the best idea day 1
