I'd rather that people asked to be part of rooms, rather than assigning them for them. Also, do you not think that scum can pocket people inside of rooms?
I've played with your mechanic before (a long time ago) For the most part it worked out, but there was always a bit of paranoia, and people only got rooms with people they wanted to
who do you want to be in a room with? If you don't want to be in a room with Gamma and Persivul, that's perfectly understandable. Name some people you do want to be in a room with and then we can wait until their restrictions are over.
Sure, scum can pocket people, but so can town be aware of whether they are being pocketed. This mechanic favours whichever side is making the most of use of it

I get that, but randomly assigning rooms before people have had a chance to form town reads doesn't accomplish that.
I mean, having a room you might not use is better than not having that room... we have nothing to lose by rooming at least two of Persivul/Gamma/Dunn.
And Dunn, scum can pocket people inside rooms, but it's usually harder than doing it in thread for all but the most skilled scum players (tris beware! )
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!

I feel like you're trying to frame me already, haha.
Since the rooms stay open for the whole game, it is optimal to create as many as possible. We should do one batch of 4 rooms now, then another batch of 4 rooms when the post restrictions expire, and then a final room when those post restrictions expire.
Get a room: Plotinus, tris
This interferes with in-thread interaction though. Hard pass on this plan.

My pronouns are she and it, please respect that. I don't mind the occasional slip.
It only interferes with interaction for 96 hours per game day, but we get the rooms for the whole game.
Besides, the room mechanic is cool. Let's use it

I doesn't seem scummy to me, so I was interested in knowing why you thought so. Of course, the more direct way to do that would be to ask you, but I felt like putting a naked vote to make a wagon instead and see what happens.
Don't you find Flavor's post to be self-conscious? Scum start the game thinking about themselves. Town start the game thinking about everyone else.
I’m the most genuine scum player on site. I’m far more self concious and self aware as town.
I also have a proven record of playing drastically different from everyone else on site.
