Also we only have five more shots today.

I don't think we'll be seeing Lovebird in here until day 2.

With 19 townies shot to 2 scum, apologies for thinking there might be some way we could do that with a slightly better ratio...

Then again you actually thought I was scum, so the idea that we'd get better results after RVS was probably a bit silly of me.

And yes, most towns are terrible.

This game type is also not conducive to people having strong solid reads lists.

And, well... all I'm really saying is that this organization is not going to have a significant effect before it's too late because you need to cull everyone who's going to go against it, which is going to be mostly town.

This is very circular, town don't want to make something more town dominated by joining it because it's possibly not town dominated at the moment.

People are probably going to go against it because either they want to lolshoot, they want to shoot their scumreads and don't care what anyone else thinks, they don't like the idea of it in general, or they think it's scum-dominated.

Basically, you have to get everybody that's in category #1 and #3 gone. Category #4 will need to go too since they're going to thin out the people willing to go along with it.

So.

#4 sounds really rare, honestly.

It seems like mostly #2 now.

Category 1 needs to go, but then they're not conducive to town wincon anyway so I'm not sure why we care from the point of view of towns wincon?
Category 2 are fine as long as they're patient enough to wait till about now
Category 3 are... what's them not liking it got to do with it's effectiveness?
Category 4 is a circular argument, since they can fix it being scum dominated by joining it

You're thinking about it wrong.

The way you handle scum-dominated things is by purging it.

Would have been interesting to see. Things like that and discussions like this was exactly the idea behind the block.

What about me said I was scum?
I admit that is was bad town play on my part. It did cross my mind that you were maybe BP that knew you wouldn't die and honestly? I don't know why the fuck town would have reacted like that. I was clearly not dead set on shooting you (hence having not shot yet) until you basically bluffed me into shooting you. If it makes you feel better you are free to call me dumb and what not but 2 wrongs don't make a right.
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.

I figured you were one of a few things:
1) Scum looking at me as a threat or high profile or even opposition scum, even if you thought PRICKS was a bad idea for town, I was clearly engaging with some of the people alive and Sando+Taly townblock was a distinct possibility.
2) Townie looking to random shoot that didn't know about PRICKS - hence I posted the PRICKS thing so you'd know the consequences. I was wary of using it as a club and detracting from it's neutral status by directly addressing it to you as a "shoot me and you die".
3) Townie with a real scumread on me - I discounted given you hadn't actually directly addressed me and you hadn't articulated a case, and you didn't know what PRICKS was, telling me you hadn't ISO'd me or read much of my posts.

So I took away the random excuse and you didn't scumread me, so I figured only scum would shoot me at that point. Losing me for a scum is more than worth it, so I figured I'd help that along by goading you.

Also, and probably most importantly, I was really drunk.

You got your wish.



Honestly I found it really hard to connect with this game as soon as I saw it was 40+ players, and people were just dropping like flies.

I hope someone shoots lovebird in the aftermath of my death.

I didnt check but I'm pretty sure you flipped town lol.

Also I mean... I don't understand why lying about my BP is so "scummy".

I was assuming town would mull over about wasting it on me or I would make scum waste theirs

Yes, I flipped town.

And I see where you were coming from. Not sure I would have done it, just because I tend to go the "don't lie as town" route. But I get it.
