hi!

shall we execute from the top down as is customary for PYP?

VOTE: lilith

hey I didn’t choose the thug life, the thug life chose me

[Infinity 324]

You really fucking big brained all of us.

VOTE: hoopla

Hard to tell how serious her posts have been, but something feels off about them

[lilith2013]

i only offer cake to my loyal flock of sheep.

please demonstrate you are a sheep.

Bah bah black sheep have you any wool
Yes sir yes sir three bags full
One for the master and one for the dame
One for the little boy who lives down the lane.

you know this song is talking

to

the sheep?

VOTE: Uncrowned

I unironically like this vote.

what'd you like about it, anyway

Being second to vote someone during RVS instead of voting someone new is something I generally did in my town games when I used to play. I feel like in the past it has helped generate discussion than a vote on someone else would

naked wagon vote from a sufficiently high level player is null, response seems a bit forced imo

VOTE: Uncrowned

Id actually like to go more in depth on this. Do you think scum goes out of their way to comment on something relatively obscure like Dripping's naked vote there? If so, why?

[PenguinPower]

VOTE: Pine

Was this random?

idk what do you think

Not sure. I didn't particularly like Pine posting without voting but idk if that's AI at all

didn't even know he posted tbh

[PenguinPower]

VOTE: penguin

[davesaz]

i did it because the idea of bidding a million was funny to me

Someone once chose pi to about 8 or 9 digits, no decimal. They wanted to choose with the decimal and the mod wouldn't allow it.

[Something_Smart]

you mean she normally makes that observation or that scum!her would deliberately double up?

Both, ostensibly.

[Something_Smart]

Hoopla's analysis was really valuable last time.

But that alone, combined with the number of players here who were in that game, makes it less valuable.

[Something_Smart]

and if i were scum ... there's a p decent chance i just talk everyone into agreeing to multitasking, depending on who exactly comprises the scumteam

I do agree that for reasons I have a hard time explaining you seem like the type to prefer multitasking.

No wait, I can explain them. Multitasking is most valuable to scum once one scum remains, and you're good at going deep as solo scum

[Something_Smart]

I guess from that it would follow that the scumteam is confident they won't get reduced to one member? Because as the last game showed, that can be brutal without multitasking.

Or they just wanted to play with the shiny new toy.

[skitter30]

Or they werent in the last game?

I think that the info gained from picking informed isnt that much - a reasonably savvy scumteam should be able to approximate that sort of info once they know of like two claims

Multitasking also makes the neighborizer bucker not as ~appealing~ imo to town , imo, i think if there's multitasking scum are more likely to pick from that pair

Also townpings on ss
Not-townpings on penguin and lilith, but it's early and those are subject to change ^

[Infinity 324]

it's early and those are subject to change ^

Speaking of not-townpings, why feel the need to mention this?

[Something_Smart]

Or they werent in the last game?

I mean, you don't need to have been there to know that multitasking is most useful when there's only one scum alive.

Of course you're right that we can't draw any confident conclusions from this. But that's just how I probably would have thought as scum (multitasking if I want a solo carry, informed if I want a group victory).

[Something_Smart]

Also hi Infinity!! It's been a while.

[Infinity 324]

I'm with skitter on this, I think multitasking is pretty much optimal no matter what.

PEdit: hi!

[skitter30]

Cuz the things i'm getting the badpings on might get resolved in short order, so my opinion might change

[davesaz]

Hoopla's analysis was really valuable last time.

But that alone, combined with the number of players here who were in that game, makes it less valuable.

This has been said in other ways already, but if Hoopla rolled scum I pretty much expect the scumteam to double or triple just to exploit the historical numbers game. That idea meshes well with choosing informed as well. Note, I'm saying this without having referred back to the numbers, so I could be talking out my ass if she's a singleton.

Funny you should say this

[skitter30]

I guess my feeling om doubling up is that the wifom boost scum gets isnt worth deliberately throwing away the chance to get prs - in late game the 'doubling up' reasoning for clearing someone hasnt been given that much weight in my experience in practice

But if someone thinks that wifom boost is worth it, the calculation becomes different, obviously

[Something_Smart]

Hoopla, do, uh, do you have any stats about how often numbers have been repeated four or more times?

[Something_Smart]

the wifom boost scum gets isnt worth deliberately throwing away the chance to get prs

I mean, it depends on how good of a boost it is.

Arguably, Hoopla's actually less likely to have done it here because everyone would immediately suspect her of having done it after how hard she railed against doubling up last game.

Depends if she saw this suspicion coming or not.

[skitter30]

I guess it's just like in early game you might get a pass if you're doubled with a flipped scum, but in late game if you have a bunch of mechanical clears and you're in a very firm poe pool (which tends to happen in these games), that's not going to help you that much
