i maybe need to read the setup because this is adjacent enough to role madness that like, the next person that gets run up claims PR too much of the time anyway and it's silly, maybe

Why would you not read the setup? It’s a randomly generated setup and understanding how it’s created seems somewhat important for people who care about that stuff - not me.

~penguin

skipped reading the setup right away to have like a more carefree approach to the game and towngleam better, something like that. It was at least a half conscious choice I made early on

i have some bias from hating setups like this and all but like it was mostly for wincon or mood optimzation reasons

which is not disconnected actually reading the shitty setup would make me mad. rather predictably i forgot this has an SK what year is it

[PenguinPower]

Hmmm - that’s not what I would have expected.

what did you expect?

[Bridgeburners]

so you're saying intelectually there's likely scum in the nullish/negleted slots? because there's not many consensus town reads and I don't think people are "town reading everyone except some names"

not really
i'm more making an observation that i don't think scum is in the places everyone is kinda settling on

i don't necessarily have a solution fwiw

@penguin, you're forgetting your Ponglin nickname

as with many day phases the key to maximizing this dayphase is to convince ourselves we are going to do something more interesting than policying NotMafia, then generate info in that environment that actually has stakes, but then sometime before the end of the day relapse into policying N_M so the day2 vote has 2 days worth of dayplay informing it and 11 active players

what did you expect?

Idk - I thought you would be one to more gravitate to understanding the setup so I’m a bit confused.

it's kind of like how on those nickelodeon game shows where round 1 is worth 300 points, round 2 is worth 500 points, and round 3 is worth 1000 points, the key to an exciting and interesting taping of the episode is that the children be too ignorant and foolish to do stretches during rounds 1 and 2 instead of screaming about comebacks.

i went back and read the numberings on my posts and that was the least fun/spicy, most plausible post for that to be about QQ

[Bridgeburners]

ok let's do it then

I'll connect with you about something one day PP I swear it

It has happened.

I don't think I've ever gotten this far this ignorant about a setup ever. I don't think that's alignment indicative though I really liked tinkering with the mechanics in Apocalypse, I wrote an actual software program and lied about what the results were in Death List.

one thing I hate is that the rules for setup construction don't let you like, -feel- how likely each subsetup is, i can read these rules and then press the button and get 4 K's and you could be like "is that a remarkable result?" and I'd say "I don't fucking know, I've never never internalized 10%*(seven choose 4) before", if it's a setup drawing balls from urns or throwing dice or drawing cards to generate I can feel it because I do those things and they're shorthand.

so anyway that kills my excitement a lot. There's a reason digital trading card games use a deck of cards with 1.0/decksize chance to draw even though it's digital and it could be 1.2 or 0.7 for the special cards or whatever else. Because the digital trading card games aren't designed for the fucking moderator
I have no idea where this mood is coming from

I agree with this

[Isis]

shirou has posted much townie but he attacked my weak need to be loved

[Shirou]

I thought you would explain your votes early and if you were coming to the conclusion of something

[Shirou]

I was like "ok those naked votes are maybe town!Isis passive reading the game, fishing for something in the gamestate, etc"

but like, I think you were just being kinda random or something?

I don't know by this point Isis.

[Shirou]

i actually maybe don't tr shirou

why not actually out of curiosity

I'm not interested in talking if I deserve or not to be town read
