I guess I could see Rei more likely than Eagle actually.
I guess mechanically igniting early is sub-optimal, additionally it serves to withhold information and increase paranoia like this, so that's also an explanation.In post 4347, Liger_Zero wrote:I am leaning heavily that scum are in the "townblock". Gonna be fun to have my head chewed of for that. That is a good explanation for why no ignition at least, not sure why you want to have so many people around that people see as locktown other than to rely on the paranoia that festers when you have less people you can lynch to work with.
mechanically seems neutral considering they can ignite 3 times, and they have 3 doused so far and can douse while they ignite. So last night seemed like a good time to take out three hard lock town. I don't see any other reason not to do it unless they believe the locktown are going to be useless or they are in it. So pick your poison i guess.In post 4351, Dannflor wrote:I guess mechanically igniting early is sub-optimal, additionally it serves to withhold information and increase paranoia like this, so that's also an explanation.In post 4347, Liger_Zero wrote:I am leaning heavily that scum are in the "townblock".

Last night only 3 players could have been ignited. Even if scum takes out Ank/EE/Prince, that still leaves a fair amount of consensus town reads and such kills would only reinforce the idea that we're on the right track with the townblock and PoE.
Because it reduces the lynch pool. Even if you take out the core town block, the next day more players from the town block will just take their place. RAS/Karm/Rei or something would be the new core. So now you have a new untouchable core but less slots to lynch from, which means a greater chance of hitting scum. The more slots there are, the better scum have a chance at hiding and actually disrupting the town block due to paranoia. The longer mafia waits to ignite, the better game state they can create.In post 4352, Liger_Zero wrote:mechanically seems neutral considering they can ignite 3 times, and they have 3 doused so far and can douse while they ignite.

Fascinating change in attitude from this:In post 4355, Liger_Zero wrote:I almost think we should lynch players that we think the scum would douse because that lessens the amount that they can potentially kill and we can potentially get a scum that was able to hide themselves very well.
I don't know if that is brilliant or moronic but it can stall out a scum win instead of potential mislynching players that scum have no interest in dousing.

And, obviously, by yesterday's lynch, supposedly consensus town reads aren't untouchable.
I think by killing part of the town block, you basically confirm that their reads are on the right track.In post 4362, Liger_Zero wrote:I don't think a new townblock would form that easily, but that is kind of speculation that i am not sure is true or not.

You say this ironically but your actions are sincere.In post 4365, Liger_Zero wrote:if we lynch all the townread players than scum can't douse and therefore, we win.
Right? Thats how this works, right?
