I proposed a 3-1 mix per bomb to box in potentially scummy people, but leave us some townreads for the next phase.

I probably should actually do some analysis later and make a suggestion on the 8 and their order

i think id rather do 4 townreads together and the other one can just be an arbitrary mix of folks who want it

Just to preserve more people for later?

partly! also if something were to go wrong in a group of 4 townreads that would be valuable info, whereas if something went wrong in a 3-1 group we would assume we knew why, perhaps foolishly

I disagree. As long as the hoods follow my strategy, who is in doesn't matter.

My preference is mainly for people we don't want to see potentially exploded on night 1. Giving null reads control over whether someone lives or dies seems un-ideal. The only point of concern would be someone like frogster who expressed a desire to reflexively kill any defuser. (I do think frogster is likely town at this point, contrary to my first impulse, but don't feel like going into detail right now).

That was an idea I floated out based on the setup spec i did before gamestart. I've been an advocate since the beginning of examining the top few approaches. Right now I'm more about killing most defusers without being reflexive about it.

Wow I didn't even make it into the nulls but Andres did?

still think you're town i just don't agree with your philosophy right now

Ceph were you one of the players who wanted to try and defuse most of the bombs?

I'm interested in exploring these ideas further. I'm not worried about having slim pickings on D2 and D3 because I think it will help with scum hunting and force out more AI information.

huh? where did they say that? i said 351 looked jokey but i don't think the scumread overall was a joke and i don't see anything they said that would imply that

In post 229, catboi wrote:Had I rolled scum the plan would be something like put up two buddies to defuse the bomb night 1, possibly bussing a weaker teammate to position them if necessary, send myself as defuser night 2 or 3, maybe stall a night or two but then have a teammate repeat as the defuser if they're still sufficiently townread

I want to bring this up here too. Seems good for considering the drawbacks of a defusal heavy plan.

This, I think is town:

That's a pretty null post from koba

I liked some of morning tweets mechanics posting earlier but outside of that she's done ~nothing alignment indicative, don't get the townreads on her.

oh. yea i kinda didn't believe them when they said that and assumed they did have some sort of gutread at least. like i think 288 is legit scummy and i doubt dwlee voted based on nothing, there must have been some reason to choose andante. but you're right that switching to the gamestate read as the main reason for scumreading is.... interesting, at least. i would lower my townread of them if they're serious about that

Yup that's why i found it interessting as i saw it, there were at least a few

Me having a rough time getting mech is just baseline. Same with bitching about large games... check, yup.

see post 255. so if following ceph's plan we'd push the collective top townreads into the top 4 slots probs, and then the 4 after that can be a mix

Is praetorian koba...

Also: I didn't /read/ a single Andante post prior to 293 but I had noted big posts and wanted to poke the bear so to speak.

In post 509, Cat Scratch Fever wrote:I strongly dislike dwlee's Andante push.

Andante feels townish here, and I also know she's kind of an easy mislim having fallen into the trap of tunneling her more than once recently. I think dwlee knows this too.

What specifically don't you like about Dwlee's push?

Felt opportunistic to me like someone pushing a known easy mislim

I gave 351 some major side eye

The reasoning given post hoc ("too many people townreading andante --> andante scum) is pretty meh. It's so early in the game, it feels weird to make a gamestate read like that when people's reads are subject to change easily

Also, what about Andante's play makes her town in your eyes?

Helped push the game out of the 12 pages of mech talk, feels similar to her other town games

351 was a joke. 360 is unrelated to 351. Also: "it feels weird to make a gamestate read like that," well lemme show you some evidence:
