Midsummer Night's Revelry - [Game Over]

[hebichan]

@mint berry: TL;DR - Giga and Hebi are saying that scum are either gonna pair by meta( what Dunn and Maria did) or come up with well reasoned excuses for why they want to pair with someone, so there's no point in letting people choose themselves.
I don't necessarily agree it's gonna be that easy for scum.

That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying that town will either pair randomly or pair by meta and that will make scum super easy to blend in.

As what seems to have happened in every previous iteration of this game. Since, as other people have pointed out, scumhave one this set up 2/2 times, because of meta pairing and passive ladies.

I am also saying this is the only time we will get to ever have a one person lynch, so lets use it wisely.

If Cabd can read his wife as well as he says, then he should be able to do it via public method. I don't see a reason beyond sentimentalism that we should put them in a thread together and allow them to potentially either snow one of the other, or just be scum with each other and cover.

I know I for one would like to take a long hard look at Cabd. I also know that I would like to have a self destruct button on who I think would be the scariest person if they drew scum in this game.

So yeah, Cabd is my first choice. I also think that as much as people want to have fun with this mechanic, there is a scorched earth option here we could explore.

In a different world, I would have danced with dunnstral.
You are a lucky girl, maria

I'm so popular

Scariest minus yourself you mean?

What do you think of the plan giga came up with though?

Trying to get a lady consensus here to push it.

[Dunnstral]

I don't want to pair with Hebi because it gives scum a very easy nightkill target.
I don't want to pair with GBT because she can't read me and she knows it so it'll be very easy for someone else (scum) to persuade her to drop out of the dance if she's town.
I would be okay with pairing up with MariaR because I think that most of the time I can read her and she'd be less likely to drop out because other people told her to.
I don't want to pair with Shiro for various reasons that I don't feel like getting into.
I would be okay pairing with Penguin_Alien because I don't know them and it could be interesting but I'm pretty sure Cabd wants to pair with them (obviously.)
I feel like I will have no ability to read A2 in a hood so I want to avoid them.
I am reasonably comfortable in my ability to read LLD, I think she will also want to pair with me, we're sorta nk baity if we're both town but it keeps all the paranoia onto one slot, and I think it would be fun to pair with her in general.
I don't know Mint Berry Crunch.

This is a nightless game, how would scum get a night kill?

(I feel awkward being comf town.)

Don't worry, this will all be over soon

[Firebringer]

Also Giga is scum with hebichan

I'm literally confirmed town by mod.

That's the joke.

[Maxous]

Hebi, as long as the girls don't just accept the first offer they get, I think we can still control the lynch

Must have missed that let me go look.

Also, yes, I'm probably the scariest person to leave alone in this game, which is why I want myself attached to a high priority target. The reasons for this should be obvious.

[Firebringer]

I think firebringer should adopt Transcend's avatar.

That way everytime he does a firebringer u can just go "ooooh thats a good boy"

I am a pretty good boy tbh

Lol

[penguin_alien]

So it's sorta

{LLD}
{Penguin/Maria}
{Mint/A2}
{Others}

for me

How do I rate anywhere without posting?

And yeah, I'm dancing with my husband (Cabd). I have better faith in him to sort me than vice versa under normal circumstances, see the last micro we played in when we'd only been dating for two months, but I should have some insight. Plus, fun times. Which is the point.

I'm up for listening to confirmed town. The other side of this mechanic too is that *all* unpaired players leave the sance after pre-dance, no? So if we decide there's a likely-scum lady, we can lynch two gents and a lady, effectively. So scum hunting among us ladies is relevant.

P-edit: LLD, pairing up doesn't preclude public scum hunting. I suspect Cabd would take even greater delight in getting me lynched if I was scum than using the suicide mechanic, even if it ends the same way for him.

Meh, if anyone doesn't have someone they want to partner up with, use you as deciding opinion. Otherwise we get info from who people ask to pair with too, in the long run. There's value in waiting to decree anything.

Look I'm not denying it could work well, I'm saying that it's a waste of resource. Think about the scenarios.

If you're both town, you've now deprived both of yourselves the ability to be in a QT with a more dangerous/suspicious person, and must only rely on the thread. Additionally, it means you're tied together, which is a problem if one of you gets paranoid about the other.

If one of you is scum, I think you two have a high chance of being able to snow the other one and gain their unconditional support. That's terrifying. There are very few game losing scenarios I can see, and that's easily one of them.

And if you're both scum, there's a big threat too. You pull away from us being able to read you, you can cover for each other based on how well you know each other, and it's a bad scene.

So no I think it's non-optimal to put you and Cabd together, minus the "Aw it's cute they're in love and dancing together".

Cabd and LLD both feel pretty much scum-confirmed

Read the post before, that's his rating for dance partners

Also, I don't think there's a big mechanical difference between an extra pair leaving in pre-dance vs just lynching that pair during first dance

Mechanically, probably not, read wise, possibly. We might get more information leaving people around longer.

[Dunnstral]

I agree with this

[penguin_alien]

If they were scum together no way do they pass up the chance to have me choose to play with Cabd.

Mm, point on mechanical difference being minimal.

[MariaR]
