ok and did they then knowing that they were the three biggest numbers decide to jump into the thread and say "hey we should be townread because we are the three biggest numbers?"

picking 18-20-42

is very different from picking

512 - 80085 - 9999999999999999999999

I'll let you figure out why.

Again, they were trying to pick large numbers, and they were the three highest numbers in practice. The mindset in the scum PT is far more important than the specific numbers they chose. Obviously I'm not saying this game is an exact replica of that game - I'm saying that the argument 'this would stand out and be suboptimal, therefore scum didn't do it' is wrong

okay

we have an ari wagon. does everybody feel the same way that she was creating a false setup spec narrative that high numbers are town wherein she also chose a high number? especially sus since i dont think it's even good town strategy to choose high numbers.

personally, i chose 80085 because i have personal sentimental memories associated with it. not because it would be good strategy.

i voted you because it felt off that you are declaring that high numbers are town based on setup spec, and in an extension you, without regard for how accurate that statement would be.

If she did that as more of a joke, it probably wouldn’t be too concerning.

the mafia have selected the

modifier - at the end of the second draft phase, the scumteam will receive a piece of information about the draft. if there are any role pairings which were not taken during the draft, the scumteam will be informed of one of these pairings. if there are multiple, they will be informed of one at random. if all role pairings were taken during the draft, the scumteam will be informed of this.

the role bidding phase begins now. for your convenience, i have also included the possible role choices below:

Spoiler:
night 3 vigilanteorvengeful
1-shot vigilanteor2-shot PGO (active)

please pm me
the specific role
you wish to be. you have about 48 hours to do so.
Another main problem with her theory is that only 4 people even chose high numbers, so what was even the point?

I don't understand what you mean by "only four people"

would a different number of people make my theory more or less valid?

The whole picking higher numbers is somehow town indicative and it’s a good idea to auto PoE in the lower numbers. That is what you’ve been saying, correct?

Sure, because 7/11 picked lower numbers, so I don’t see your theory as helpful or why you’re defending it so strongly?

9/13

why is it not helpful to rule out 4 players if they are all actually town?

Because it’s a bad metric as Ausuka has already pointed out.

Make reads based off of posting not numbers.
