First of all that's shitty behavior because I'd be trying to remove the town's ability to choose lynches and that would make the game really not fun for everyone else

Second I wouldn't give scum an avenue to kill me even if it's remote

Third I'm not gonna pretend that only my reads are valid so other people need to be getting in there and accusing people

In post 646, Varsoon wrote:@SomethingSmart: You think that people claiming in LYLO makes them confirmed.
I refuted that already.
We can have civil discussions but you framing it like I'm the problem here when it's clear you haven't read my posts is troubling.
I never said anything about claiming in LYLO. I only said confirmed in LYLO. Whether or not it's feasible to have someone confirmed in LYLO, it's preferable to having them confirmed beforehand.

Although it is absolutely possible to have someone claim in LYLO and be confirmed. If, on day 1, everyone did as Firebringer did and hypoclaimed who Arthur is, then by the time LYLO rolls around, there could be only a few people who still could be Merlin. If scum aren't in that group, or if the person they claimed is Arthur ends up being Merlin, they can't counterclaim Merlin, and Merlin and Arthur get confirmed. I'm not saying that's a good strategy, but it can lead to multiple people being confirmed in LYLO. However, I do think it's objectively better than your strategy.

So... you still haven't done what I asked. Do you agree with the following:
In post 387, Something_Smart wrote:Confirming the highest number of town is not the best goal. If an obvious townie who was going to die at night turns out to be confirmed, it does nothing for us.

What we want is one of two things: confirmed townies that scum can't kill before it matters (either BP or confirmed
in LYLO
), or being able to choose who gets confirmed (because we can pick scummy players to get either guiltied or confirmed).
or not? And if not, why do you disagree?
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

In post 611, Varsoon wrote:Town intentionally killing itself so that town can eventually get a Vig that'll more often than not just kill more town is an awful idea.
Also, do you seriously believe that Arthur getting the sword is bad for town? It's mechanically equivalent to double day, at the very least if Arthur has poor reads he can be leashed and it still provides a massive boost to town EV...

Well yes but I might be biased because I feel I'm above average at reading her

I wasn't necessarily agreeing with SS either, just wondering where he was going with that

I don't really agree with this but OK

Especially since I feel you're taking into account me arguing with you when I feel like you kind of interjected yourself into that

Which part of step 3?
I STRONGLY feel that if Arthur has the sword, Merlin should confirm it. NOT confirming that is anti-town.
And if non-Arthur has the sword, Merlin shouldn't say anything. Coming out is anti-town.
Bad logic.

Weird.

I originally interpreted that as her thinking you were expendable.
How? If shes scum she doesnt want to be stuck without someone. I'm likely to accept her since we play a lot together.

if you think UT is this bad of a liability as town why not just have him lynched today?
I think many players are probably capable of exhibiting such behavior - if people claiming the sword explicitly agree to 1. Not do that, and 2. Town is ready to lynch ICs for doing that, it's fine.

UT is self-resolving anyway, considering he'll attempt to vig.

If he lol gladiates today, I'll vote him.

Well that's why I mentioned supporting LLD getting it before. She was the only one who came to mind.

Most of my experience with these players is very out of date, though, so that's why I left the description open for anyone who has a good idea of who fits it. Maybe you although I think some people here can read you pretty well.

The pressure of getting 99% of the blame for a loss would probably work pretty well on most people, especially if their reads have already proven bad.
