wait please explain to me how pooky -- who CREATED THE PROBLEM by your own admission -- gets to not be the problem child while UT and I are the ones TRULY responsible for this shitshow we find ourselves in
As I have seen it your issue seems to be with the fact it forces the scope to be on 4 slots, but in actuality it doesn’t. You folks just seem to not want to do it for whatever reason. Any proclaimed inability to read within {Lilith, Cakez, Starbuck, AGar, UT, Reck, notsci, Bulge} because of the insta-challenge imo comes from a lack of trying rather than that. I have admitted earlier that it probably becomes easier with flips, but the opposite of easy is not impossible, so you should still be able to do it without.
It’s a matter of will here. You claim Pooky caused a problem, but I don’t see where the problem is except in your head.
Also you two aren’t the only ones I have issues with, but you’ve certainly raised a lot of hell about how much this situation sucks so that makes you the people I feel like arguing with about it.
the problem is that any noise being made about anyone outside of these four creates obfuscation of the reasoning why we're voting for any of these four
for example, i still don't understand why the fuck pooky snap challenged and what was so strong in his gut to risk throwing the game away on an instantchallenge
it DOES narrow the scope. that's LITERALLy the mechanic of the game. i'm going to focus on what is in my control today, and that is "which of these four do i vote for"
you know what SCUM would want to do here? esp. if they have a buddy somewhere in the four on the block? they'd want to run as far away as possible from it and focus on other things.
that way if a mislim happens they can go "well good i didn't want them anyway i wanted person XYZ over here" and it completely absolves them of responsibility for the current challenge
and since the point of this mechanic is to put the game under a microscope, it would've been
extremely fucking ideal
if pooky hadn't fired from the hip and given people more time to discuss and figure out who we all wanted under the microscope. at the very least, challenge on something more than instalolgut
so yes-- keeping things narrowly focused on the current challenge is ideal. it forces people to take stances that can then be reviewed, poked, prodded, reevaluated after we have a flip.
i do not give a flying fuck what you have to say about starbuck right now because she's not on the block so why are we having this conversation? and your continued push on her allows you to divert attention away from going after anybody on the block.
but please, whippersnapper, lecture us old fogies on how to play mafia more. i'm sure your hyperactive spamposting and pooky's hipfiring "for the lulz" are just bastions of admirable mafia play
