Hey, Hectic, what made you decide on that specific coalition to vote for?
Why me, why NC 39, etc.?

Why is defensive scum-indicative, necessarily? Never actually had someone explain this to me.
At least as I see it, scum are more concern about keeping themselves alive so they respond to pressure more defensively.

Fair enough; makes sense. Really not sure it’s enough to call LUV scum over, but you do you, I guess.

Do you have any reads yet Gamma?

it was a completely arbitrary and random vote, but having thought about it, it's far more useful to see who people are townreading and want in the coalition from the start rather than to just treat it like RVS

so:

Cool, this has finally started. I was in Skitter’s game and we actually won on D1, only to have RAS cheat us out of a much deserved win.

I figured as much. This is like the opposite of Overkill 2, where my slot had 3 votes before I even made a single post but in that case, it wasn’t actually RVS.

I was telling Nero that we need to keep an eye on nsg because if she posts, that hydra is more likely to be town. Apparently scum!nsg flakes, so I’m leaning town on RC/nsg hydra for now.

That’s myself plus the 3 slots I believe to be the strongest slots coming into the game plus Espresso since I liked their entrance.

I think the Coalition should be the 5 strongest/Towniest players not just for the obvious reasons of the D1 wincon but also as a weak investigational tool if it fails - if the Coalition fails we know there’s a deep wolf in a group where we might not otherwise suspect scum to be.
is it considered a deep wolf if they're just in the top 5 town reads?

regarding the investigation potential, it is useful for knowing there's at least 1 scum in the group, i don't we can even be too confident that there can't be two scum in the 5 we agree on, so the utility isn't actually that useful
I mean it’s not really rocket science. If we have a coalition that fails, there’s obviously at least one scum in it. But why waste D1 doing that, when it makes far more sense to heal the majority’s top town reads? It’s in our interest for the coalition to succeed on D1, so it makes sense to not be hasty.

Beyond scumreading LUV, got early townreads on Alchemist and Espresso, and kinda suspect RCMA

i agree, going for an all town coalition is obviously what we go for, i wasn't suggesting we try to get a certain number of scum in there and use it as an investigation check, that doesn't make any sense obviously when we can just win D1

Dude, he did two things: greet the thread as he literally almost always does, and agreed with someone who disagreed with you... OMGUS, or just a lack of willingness to meta someone? A combination, perchance?
him greeting the thread in null. Why do you feel like sticking up for the guy?

NSG seems a little I'd say overzealous, in a not genuine way. Trying too hard is probably the best way to put it.

I think that's a really old meta
Can you give recent examples of that?

It’s been a while since I played a game that had nsg in it so I don’t have a recent example, but unless you’ve got an example that shows the meta’s wrong it’s what I’m going with.

I find it a bit strange that Hectic is being so normal this game. His town play usually has a chaotic posting + formatting style and he likes to fake claim random stuff.

Either he's getting tired of a 'hectic' playstyle, or this is his scum game. I think it's the latter.
