If I'm not mistaken, all newbie games require a hammer, time running out is a no-elim
Yes, a hammer is required, and Cyrus is surely aware of from their earlier games (they are an SE), and from the fact that they actively said that they were not going to hammer, so town would no elim Day 1

I thought cyrus had stopped purposefully making bad posts around the time I decided to start interacting with them more, but I think they are sliding back into purposefully bad posts :/

To be explicit:

Newbie games, and in fact NEARLY ALL MS games do not use plurality elimination mechanics.

If no one gets a majority of votes then there is no elimination.

Majority: N/2 + 1

Where N=the number of living players.

Do you know the difference between a majority and a plurality?

That’s a rhetorical question.

if you want StrangeMatter you and HockeyFan would put them over the 5 votes
When they flip town you can't blame me

I have no issue with you not wanting to vote someone you think is town, but like, you should be voting your scum reads. From what I have gathered about your reads, you should probably vote for either Hockey or vote for me. I would feel better with that, then seeing you vote for a no elim.

VOTE: Lukewarm also i just don't know if StrangeMatter is scum or not. I remember my first game i made alot of mistakes i didn't know how to vote every one thought i was scum pretending not knowing how to play. I was elim 2nd day but had caught both scum on the 1st day. But the pr who was also new didn't know that they went no where ment i was innocent. So sorry if I'm being overly nice.

i'm trying to figure out if the way they talk is just difficult for me to parse but this seems like an empty statement

I don't really have a problem with this attitude, different people play the game in different ways.

but this seems to contradict 69 unless i'm not parsing correctly

actually they have town reads here, not scumreads, which is strange considering 69

i still don't get the questioning here, and i don't really like their explanation. some of their posts are kind of posting just to post, it seems.

why does it take time to go from scumread to a vote? this is kind of a omgus vote which isn't inherently scummy but seems a little strange

i pressure people with my vote

i was saying probability-wise if someone's not here to post they could still be scum and worth looking at, i didn't mean to imply haschel was scum because he wasn't posting, hence the "it could be him"

@Strange, how do you pressure people? I think you accuse me of not pressuring people, but i feel like you're leaving your vote on people without following up much.

Zyla


it is weird she calls out hockeyfan for not answering her questions

i like this, a good way to call cyrus out

this list feels organic

i like the thought behind this post

my one problem with Zyla is that she has a lot of fluff in her posts. i thought there was more to them but there's a lot of posts that don't quite mean much

@Zyla what are your reads now?

now that i've gone through the isos i'll try and collect my thoughts and vote again

There are still two days left in d1. Even though I'm as ready as anybody for the first day to be over, don't let Cyrus rush you.

I don't have any new reads today, I think we've beaten the reading process into the ground at this point.

HC ~ Hockey

Scummy


Honestly, my most extreme reads are only leans rn (hence no one in full green or red), but that's where I'm standing rn

And also there's Cyrus who's just sort of ... existing outside of reads right now

Pressure to me is more like you have to force them into making a move, that's interpreted as something normal to have been said. Right now, there's almost nothing on you in particular. And right now, I just don't have much other reason to be on this, besides having reads and voting considering being enough for pressure.

What makes you think 69 and 76 contradict each other? And, don't you do other things instead of voting for pressure?

it's possible i'm not parsing it correctly, it looked like you were saying "i do scum reads first" in 69 and then "i use POE once i have town reads to find the scum" in 76

i talk to people, ask them questions, sometimes accuse them, try to get them to slip up or give more information. i haven't been doing that lately just because i've been busy/overextended but i'll try to do that more often going forward.

First of all, why should I even reveal my role right now. That's a last resort, and right now I'm not going to give scum anything just to survive. Plus, you'll know my role after I'm dead, so go ahead.

If you have a claim to make, this is the time. Cyrus might be bluffing, but he might have already hammered in the time it takes me to post this.
