This should more be an question of "who do you want to work with and why" rather than "who ScUm??!"
I take no issue wrt to your reasoning for picking teams, that isn’t my concern at all, I just don’t see why both of you so strenuously object to making reads.

So what do you want to do with it? We don't know if it's advantageous to have Noraa in with a group of other mafia, in with a group of town, or be the one outlier slot. We know nothing.
I don’t know that either but I don’t understand either you or Ydrasse’s objections to giving reads, so I view it as antitown play from both of you.
I'm not gonna post reads because i'm fundamentally opposed to it being an requirement for this game phase, and they will probably be reads i am not very confident in and turn out wrong.

View it as anti-town if you wish. I've given an clear and concise explanation for why i am choosing to not bother myself with reads.

In other words: Get the teams finalized please. Let's see what pooky (and JINGLE) have hidden for us behind these doors. Thank you
The only reason we came as close to winning that game as we did was because we did some actual scumhunting instead of meme exploding the whole time.

Thank you.

In that case

VOTE: Tic tac

Good a vote as any while I read and I don’t think I could tolerate nothing but memes.

We don't know exactly what the teams are for, so the game plan has been to try and mitigate risk. And several of us agree that means trying to stack town in some teams and scum in others. So basically, captains should probably be strong town, yes. It doesn't have to be out of those three, anyone can be voted (except MT and her team, they're already locked in)

pedit: Tictac for captain isn't a bad choice imo. But you should also think about who should be on their team and who they're likely to pick for their team.

Also note that only people voting for the captain can be picked by the captain for their team. So by voting tictac you're making yourself eligible to be on their team.

Thanks Ydrasse and Numbers. Not sure if I agree with the whole I should think about teams atm. Seems like that part is out of my hands and more in other people’s hands. Town and scum can probably sort but I don’t know enough about Squid Game to know what would make a good team if that makes sense.

What did teams do in Squid Game?

What did teams do in Squid Game?
The only game that had to do with splitting into teams was one where two teams would be randomly selected out of the bunch to go against each other in a game of tug-o-war, with the losers being eliminated (and dying). Some of the players were secretly informed of this, so they formed a team made out of the strongest men. while the others teams also did pretty much the same. With the weaker players or those who are good friends joining together at the end.

They also teamed up for the marble game, and had to kill each other then. Which is why I think either possibility is likely.

That was only one partner though. Now we're forming teams made out of multiple people.

I think a mass elimination event is either once or never. Because of the lack of nightkill and this is still a mafia game wrapped in a theme. It would seem odd to almost never have a traditional elim.

Yeah but the people in the show also weren't voting to eliminate each other. And the first game wasn't a team up at all. I think it's reasonable to speculate about it going either way, instead of assuming it'll be exactly like the show.
