@ old dogs

i don't really know what else you want me to say about vork
it was the most ??? sketchy thing that i saw in the first two pages so i decided to vote there
was it inherently scummy? no. was it weird? quite a bit, yeah
did i have anywhere better to vote at that point? no, so i figured it was a decent place to start

can't respond to a gut read really

and regarding the 3p thing: it basically kinda annoyed me to read that they were planning on just ... not outing reads, it felt like they wanted the benefit of not getting nk'd without really doing anything to contribute to not getting lynched. like just kinda expecting people to be cool with that and to go along with it without really taking into account the fact that they kinda need to keep the goodwill of the other people during the day to not be lynched

it felt kinda entitled on some level, and it rubbed me the wrong way. like it fundementally seems to be a distortion almost of the whole notion of survivor to me, to just kinda make an entrance like that and expect everyone to be ok with it

not really sure if talking about it more is conducive at this point but yeah it kinda annoyed me and i didn't like the approach they took much at all

*shrug*

like, i've seen other survivors play exactly like that offsite. i agree that it's the optimal play and it's similar to how i'd play if i were survivor, and honestly i have a hard time comprehending why it seems so foreign to do that to people here? i would be defending that slot not being lynched D1 as either alignment just because i dont like to lie about mechanics early game as scum

and like, i get why you voted vort and absolutely can see you do it as town, im just trending it as more likely to be from scum - like a 55/45 sort of thing. it's why i just random voted instead of went straight to pushing you

idk, that's how i felt about it, and i don't feel like that's the right way to play the role

UNVOTE: for now; there's still a few things that are pinging me from you that i need to mull over but i think i'm ok with this for now

do u still dislike playing scum btw?

@vork yeah sorry i know i don't have a great track record of reading you also, it was the first thing that pinged me so i voted there but like i know you ping me a lot so i wasn't scumreading you for it, more trying to find a semi-not-useless vote for p2

Let me give a few counter-points...
In post 161, Old Dogs wrote:we're ultimately taking away the usefulness of D1 - this is the only day where every single slot is alive, so if we spend it knowing that we're just going to lynch the survivor then all of the interactions we'd be getting here are useless
Day 1 is also the day where town shoots itself in the proverbial foot the hardest. They are more likely to lynch one of their own than any other alignment, and they are likely to bring out a few claims along the way. Going into Night 1 with a quick lynch of an anti-town element means that no one person has presented themselves as a major threat for night killing, role-blocking, or other shenanigans. Assuming some sort of power exists in this game, Night 1 can bring a lot of information to bear for discussion on Day 2 depending on how the evening plays out and whether or not information is worth sharing. Stances can just as easily form on Day 2 based around the kill(s) and power results, and work out in such a way that we can skip any kind of random dance phase and assume a Night 0 had happened instead.
we're ensuring we never hit mafia today when town has the best majority possible over scum on D1 - even if it's unlikely to happen if town players refuse to not vote for the 3p and we dont lynch scum it's really detrimental because scum can just never bus knowing full well that no one will want to lynch them.
Scum typically only bus when their team requires it, so I wouldn't expect a full on scum bus on Day 1 in most cases.
However, Town also gets to save information based on their roles so any shot(s) tonight would be taken based on fear of a player slot, which depending on who is what role, could cause overlap if we have multiple factions. Assuming any exist, Serial Killers will be the most blind since they would literally be shooting in the dark.
the 3p very likely is important to the main gimmick of the setup, which i assume we universally have little knowledge on. i'd rather see what that connection is before lynching them in case it's useful for town
The setup has been advertised as having multiple third parties, which means that as town, we want as many gone as we can in order to remove the swing potential of the game.

I'm informed that the scumteam has factional information on the nature of the setup not available to the town. :shifty:

In general.
mafiascum has a "third party? LOLLYNCHTHIS" attitude.
One which I hard fucking disagree with, mind you, but which exists all the same.
Given that this game is explicitly advertised as being 3p heavy though I'll policy lynch any player who unironically suggests lynching third parties.
