Have u literally forgotten JK9++ already? The game we nearly lost (should’ve lost) bc of not policy limming NM despite me saying repeatedly that we should do for like 3 days?

I stg if we have to have another conversation about policy limming and why it’s worth it I will put my face through my desk given the context

why does it matter
He’s scum or he isn’t, purely from rand it’s basically 50/50’and he’s not gonna play or be readable throughout the game?

So we can just...ignore him. And lim the (other) scum. Idgi

Probably bc I slept like an hour and a half from 11 until after midnight and have spent most of the night losing in teamfight tactics
Also because I literally, like actually literally had to have this argument in JK9++, let it go, we got shitwagoned for the trouble and then NM was scum all along
Do u see why this is frustrating to have to run through again? Im not getting why the setup is so different that it’s not worth it

Or we could let the game breathe and if we really can’t come up with a better option and need a deadline scramble then we decide to go there

Also we can read NM based on who's pushing and defending them. Were more likely to get earlier scumflips in this setup that most
So far it's looking pretty good for NM
PEdit: sorry mena being sleep deprived sucks :(
Also the setup is different because we don't have to ever deal with NM and because each elim is worth more than in a different setup.

As I said earlier, if we're up 2-0 and we're struggling to find a third and he's alive, we should have that convo.
I consider this similar to like an at-bat in baseball; if you get ahead in the count, either as a batter or pitcher, you have the unique opportunity to make a conservative play w/ some guaranteed value in it akin to not swinging at a 3-0 pitch and seeing if the pitcher will screw up themselves.

If he is scum then the odds of limming scum go to like 4/10 if we just leave him alone and if he’s town then I p much guarantee scum will push for him in lylo esp if he quickhammers along the way and then it will be a pure gamble
I’m saying let’s get the busywork out of the way and then get on with the actual gsme. If he’s town, liability removed and we’re playing on slightly hard mode. If he’s scum, cool, free lim

I’m not saying we speed lim I’m saying that the only reason policy lims don’t work is bc people get attached to their pet SRs which most of the time aren’t any better than rand, and we should just play it safe and agree that we’re limming NM unless someone basically claims scum

I like this analogy
I don't particularly feel like arguing this back and forth so I'm gonna stick with only voting NM if a bunch of my townreads are on the wagon
PoE is another great way to sort NM and was a good reason to lim them in jk9++ too imo

according to skitt/infinity I was not in that game so I don't get why you're upset with me in particular about it.
also we have an avatar now.

Also assuming we’re talking about the game I was scum in too
I knew he was scum but I was scumreading him like in my town lens
So meh I don’t think he’s that had to read

Mena we've talked abt this like 6 billion times already but i really kinda fundementally disagree with u abt ur approach to not mafia
But, i do think the frustration you're exhibiting on this page given the context is townie for you
