wowowo
zoo you're positively surprising me with every post
I like you as a player more and more every time you post. only as a player/person though, still null on your alignment.
but yeah you're right, I was thinking about it even before receiving my role pm as soon as I saw there was 7 days as deadline rather than 14. I planned (and still kinda plan to later on?) to play this slower so I kinda thought this was be a good idea to say (even if I knew almost no one would bother entertaining it) regardless of my alignment, although I do genuinely think it's mostly pro-town/an auxiliary way to scum hunt. The idea came from the fact I've been thinking about a setup where the players need to gacha/gamble as well...that sounds fun to watch...
but *ahem*
If I lose a "bet" I'm forced to sheep another person in the following day, and it's a good thing because I would probably have the wrong reads/mindset about the game.
If I win a "bet" I get an extra vote for pressure rather than needing to lose my mind gathering enough votes to eliminate my confident scum reads (if I get any I guess).
You know, arguing is a pain in the ass in this game sometimes. Especially since we're so short on time, isn't it better to just let people that had a good read in the previous day lead, and the people that had a bad read in the previous day sheep?
So it's mostly fun idea for me, it's also genuinely pro-town, but it's also a very good way the effort necessary for eliminations in this game which is what I like the most about it perhaps in a 7-day deadline game where I don't want to effort too much.
Although I'm also kinda confident we could get at least one or two good town reads out of the "bets" if everyone/most people were to join the club...there's all sorts of bonuses mhm...
