I probably should've asked this earlier, but what is WIM?

PookyTheMagicalBear · Post Post #2302 (ISO) » Thu Dec 17, 2020 1:34 pm

without his ability theres no way we can even do this

PookyTheMagicalBear · Post Post #2303 (ISO) » Thu Dec 17, 2020 1:34 pm

WIM is effort level.

Hench Princesses · Post Post #2304 (ISO) » Thu Dec 17, 2020 1:35 pm

'want it more' a shorthand for desire to win the game/motivation

polarized players have more wim as town, reverse polarized players have more wim as scum

pooky is basically arguing that shelly has reverse polarity (has more wim as scum than as town)

sure and you want to hard rule out fringe cases like "compulsive double turnstiler"?

it's probably way too early to say if brian's role is 'too op' for town, it's certainly very important to the game's balance one way or the other

i mean i havent really been evaluating you at all. i just assume theres no way a scum activates that ability for us.

I don't want to fear-monger here, I do think "scum compulsive double turnstiler" is probably too convoiuted, I'm just trying to think through what it would take to make sure the role was balanced for town and/or what counter-play the scum is likely to have as a result. I don't *think* cakez would assume the role is meant to be townread for being the role or meant to be treated as a quasi-IC, even though I think 'core mechanical roles to the setup' do more often end up being town

Your cognitive bias diassociation theory of town is prominently attributed to the badfaith argument of a scum member who is onto-logically giving you the burden of proof is equating to you being scum

I miss you.

it will be hard to explain why hes still alive on d3 if we do not get modconf

even if hes the lone scum that survives the purge it wont matter cuz no n3 nightkill implies full clear.

No.

Are you trying to?

zMuffinMan · Post Post #2318 (ISO) » Thu Dec 17, 2020 1:57 pm

how would it be hard to explain that lol

you (shouldnt) even know how many scum are on this side

Hench Princesses · Post Post #2319 (ISO) » Thu Dec 17, 2020 1:57 pm

No, I was trying to understand whether 2314 was like a polite hint or something else. I guess you found it funny independently of current mood?

Seconded Bork, but I’d come to unwnd town ages ago.
