Actually we should probably agree on a set of consensus townreads to get parachutes first; anyone taking one ahead of them would be considered a scumclaim.
Yea I definitely think we should limit people grabbing for other people (which is what I've been arguing), but I don't think we can prevent people from grabbing parachutes for themselves
I prefer they, thanks :)

Your team is pretty behind Dwlee.
Do you have an designated parachute catcher? Who will be given parachutes first?

You can set out people for watch.
So that in the next drop one will be on to secure for themselves and others on the team, while the rest of the team takes an rest.

It’s more effective and smarter to play if you strategize in this way.

But I haven't gotten a parachute myself so

And no one on my team has either cause I think busy

DkK is promoting that you have READS first, then act upon them. If you TR a team member, sure... grab a 'chute for them. If you think they're Scum then let them try for themselves. That's like giving them a fair chance, but also giving TRs outside your team the same chance.

For me, I don't exactly trust any of my teammates (I don't explicitly SR any of them either), but the closest to a TR I have within my Team is Mathblade, and I also beat him to the chute I got for myself, so I am going to try and grab one for him too. (I dunno how he missed on all 3 dropped after mine. I told him in the PT I was going to sleep.. and him not caring enough is part of why I lean Town on him right now)

So anyway, after Math gets a parachute (whether be his own work or mine) I am "not sure yet" what to do. I mean..
the meme
dictates I should try to save my Captain, which I will try to do only if I'm not too tired to stare on the screen. Someone needs to give me a reason to TR them for me to do the extra effort for them (I'm talking about Noraa & numberQ)

@DkK: Aside from my read on you, that's as close a readlist that you can get from me at this time
Okay maybe not as scummy

I thought I remembered you saying you’d save your captain first

Why is that scummy? Other people are taking parachutes for people?

Like Math I 100% think ur scum. I just dont want anyone regardless of alignment to get treated the way I have been this game so I've been holding back. I directly told someone that there was scum in the pt and you brushed it away like "oh ofc yeah"
like im talking about you and theres no way you didn't understand that. anyways im not gonna be in the pt much unless I see something worth replying to.

I haven’t read [the game thread].

And I asked you a question you haven’t responded to
I keep track of people by letter and names get confusing

I feel like we need some chutes in team 1, because I'm pretty sure most of the player list (myself included) has multiple townreads in there. But I also really want a chute for myself.

Because I agree there’s scum in the PT.

Unless we figure out who that’s all it merits.

Odds are pretty good every PT has a scum in it.

That’s just probability.

I think that probability only works with pure random team assignment. We were (well, some of us were) actively trying to stack town and scum, so I think those odds are skewed. It's likely there's at least 1 team with no scum, maybe 2 if we did really well.
