I am still not sure what you are saying.
His first post about which hood we should shoot in was the "correct' mech conclusion.
Do you mean you giving him town points because his rvs vote was in the small hood?

this was to extend of basically all our discussions of the game besides "WHEN IS THIS GAME STARTING. WHY ARE WE STILL IN NIGHT 0. WHEN WILL THIS START"
why me?

don’t you need to see a towngame before you can be more confident in recognizing my scumgame?
your confidence in reading me just from that seems a bit jarring

lowkey i think ur kinda townie for saying that early ig. I don’t see the scum incentive for you to dig yourself into a hole like that when literally nobody here should expect you to have a perfect read rate on me. idk maybe ur just being performative but it doesn’t feel that way.
lol it’s so weird not knowing your alignment I’ve never actually tried to read you
any tips? do you think you would say that as scum?
There ended up being a lot of discussion on which hood to kill in first. After lots and lots of back and forth mech talk, it was decided that killing in the big hood first is better. Despite that, we killed scum in the small hood day one, and then proceeded to lose the game.
I don't remember all of the math on why it is better, but that was Bingle's final conclusion, and I trust Bingle's set up spec better then my own anyways.
Spoiler:
I know, I know. Bingle was scum that game.
But then he stood by it in the ghost chat, and he also said it in the original run of this set up, he had the same conclusion
So, would love to skip all of the mech back and forth and just all agree to kill in the big hood. Thanks!
Interesting, I’m down to just follow it even if it feels a bit wrong to me.
also fwiw I think this comes from town!NS unless he’s confident that people are going to bring it up. Either that or it’s scum!NS who wants people to kill in the 6 first for whatever reason. But it seems like in general he believes that town should kill in the 6 so if he’s scum it should be bad for him to reinforce town optimal strategy when he could’ve just let us bicker about it more
That NS read is bad. Enforcing town optimal strategy hasn't been townie since 2005

if town is divided between the optimal town strat and the non optimal one why would scum want to push it in the direction of the optimal one and cite evidence for it? especially if you think it “hasn’t been townie since _”

the only reason I can really think of is that for some reason scum!NS set it up in a way such that it’s better for them in this case to go for group of 6, that somehow the incentives align, but I dont know wtf that could be

Idk I’ll keep thinking on it I guess maybe there’s nothing there and I just got excited
