hm how do you think massclaiming is discouraged in this game?

like mechanically from a design perspective

the signup thread gave a warning about massclaim ending poorly

Do i look like person who solves mech

you’ve done some designing/moderating, haven’t you?

figured you might have some insight

[andrée]

original question also open to others of course; georgebailey and enchant were just the moderating sorts who had posted i was familiar with

[andrée]

nono i think i am not explaining well

i am not suggesting that we massclaim nor that it is a good idea or anything,

i am simply asking what others think is the mechanical ‘punishment’ for it or whatever

like if there is a warning for it ending poorly there would be a reason for this, yes?

so i wonder what others think that reason is

Because it can help scum single out powerful PRs for nightkills. It usually only helps scum to mass claim d1.

the warning about not massclaiming wasn’t referring to day one specifically simply that town should not do so

and i believe it said it was a comment from the reviewer not the moderator for town to be warned of this

so it seemed like,

maybe some sort of mechanical thing

[andrée]

like on a larger scale then

‘oh no if you massclaim a pr might die’

which is always true

but we are not usually issued warnings about that

i dont think there's much to be gained from this speculation rn

okay

i think it’s somewhat likely the mafia know more than i do with regards to this

and trying to determine if speculation is potentially coming from an informed perspective or not is fun and also sometimes useful

but okay

[andrée]

whyd you tell the mafia that's what your looking for?

if the mafia now want to play the ‘i will provide “uninformed” speculation to trick andrée’ game they are very welcome to

[andrée]

but mostly because i wasn’t going to continue pursuing it too much because of objections and limited response and i do not put too much weight into posts that could have been constructed over a long period of time

like it’s much more useful to ask those present to me

[andrée]

(though i do kinda hope morning tweet will humour me and speculate at the very least)
