[Skygazer]

ill try and read u

first q: are u town or scum

[The Renais Twins]

no

[Uncle Bob]

I think any plan that involves trying to send townie people in is flawed.

Why? It would be a town win if we happened to create a party of five all town.

[Uncle Bob]

What makes it scummy is the way he doubled back and called attention to it in 14.

Why's that?

@Mr. Mifflin - Yes, that's who I was referring to. I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds issue with that aspect of it - jokes are jokes, and the fact that people chose to treat the comment as a joke rather than a scumtell doesn't warrant as much suspicion as Sky seems to have invested in it.

The way I see it, we should manage the party and the lynch using separate rules - we lynch people who are likely to be mafia, but we don't necessarily send people who are likely to be town to the party. Mmm, I think any plan that involves trying to send townie people in is flawed.

Why??? Not liking this post at all, feels like you're writing a paper and trying to get your word count up

This is a weird response given posts 60-64 from you.

I work at a school and this week's been weird in terms of coverage/workload so I hope you'll forgive me for being scarce. Will follow up in-depth tonight.

her entrance is essentially exactly the same as her entrance in a past game where she was scum and I have other

Skygazer and Hellknight are switchable for me

Don't like Uncle Bob in post 80... why does my plan being unhelpful even mean I get voted? I don't like the reasoning, or lack of connections between voting for scum and voting because you disagree (it seems scummy)

If we know 5 town right now, we don't need the party mechanic to win anyway - that's a flawed argument. We don't need to win twice as hard, we need to not lose momentum twice as hard by both being wrong on the lynch and thereby being wrong on who is town in the party

Seriously though, if you can name 5 town right now, and everyone agrees, and they're all town.... we win without the party mechanic. Needless to say that's easier said than done

Given we have 4 days remaining, this is not really the time to be prodging.

I have not been a particularly vocal player so far but we do need a greater level of consensus on the party send if we're going to get anywhere.

So far my inclination is to put the people who might want to have fun with this game in the party, and leave everyone who we're okay with dying in the out-of-party. This means if an active player is dying, that we know it is another active player killing them. The exception to this currently is Yumeko who I am including purely for meme value and my own entertainment.

The Renais Twins would be another candidate for an activity-party send but I'm worried that the Renais Twins dying would not be interesting or informative regardless of which side of the party we have them on. Although the argument could be made that putting him in the party could bait one of the active players into killing him which would inform the town that there is in fact a wolf in the active players. So whether or not The Renais Twins should be in the party is something I would like to hear people's thoughts on.

I don't believe this is a flawless strategy but it is my reasoning, which most people have been content to kind of ignore, which makes me think that the current biggest issue with this game is inertia and apathy.

So let me be clear.



My inclination is to scorched earth everyone outside the party until the game includes readable players or something interesting happens. How's that for a gamble?

[Fuscosco]

Given you didnt care until I posted I dont see how you can post a wall in self-confidence unironically.
