So tell me, did you notice that Pooky was the big hood elimination in both those games where town won by flipping him?
I did! Only read Micro 1062 but in that game the small hood scum was pretty much immediately outed and Pooky was a lowposting consensus lim. Also thanks for accidentally reminding me about something that was mentioned in the scum chat in that game, if there's small hood off wagon then don't put people at E-1 if you're not willing to accept the possibility that off-wagon small hood scum quickhammer

Hmmmmmmm. I did go and read some of that game now, I'll have to think about the matter some more. There's no Pooky in this game.

Huh. This is weird. I... don't think the mod would handle unsubmitted hoods like this though. For one, the list would already have to be ordered in a way where the scum are split apart properly, not both in the bottom five or top three.

I'm saying scum put the hoods in order of signups just have something and then didn't/couldn't update it for the actual hoods they wanted. If scum didn't submit any hood at all then the hoods would be completely randomized

Seems right to me, randomized or not there's still one scum per hood. VOTE: yesiree I don't like that you sheeped python with the vote on invisibility.

Nope, I was running under the assumption that scum would do the fun thing and pick hoods instead of letting it rand

In 45 you said they made it obvious, though. I guess it wasn't actually that obvious?
Aureal did you roll scum without me?
I don't think it's possible to make it any more obvious the hoods were randed, I missed it the first time around because I checked the hood composition from my hood pm and didn't check the playerlist

Plural | Nameless (They/He) and Alice (She/Her) and C (They/Them) and more
And yet despite it being so obvious, nobody mentioned it until Invisibility did. It was clearly intentional, so I'm left to ponder whether scum wanted to take a certain approach to that fact.

Why don't you like it?
Could be an early attempt to discredit one person in the small hood in particular.
Pre-63 the questions felt really nitpicky and I didn't see where she was going with it. After the clarification it's fine but it felt more like she was looking for a gotcha instead of sorting

wait why are the neighborhoods just order of signups? I think scum tried to make neighborhoods with an unbiased mechanism so that we couldn't glean anything from them LOL

I think pre 63 you well deserved to be questioned. Even now your reason to townread yessiree strikes me as contrived.

oh true true. They must've decided that the order was acceptable enough over random neighborhoods so there's still probably stuff to glean from that. Not that I'll do much gleaning cuz I don't like doing meta (major player flaw. I just find it boring)
No I mean why did scum specifically make it obvious that they let the hoods rand instead of letting it rand and letting people see AI hood choices where there are none
-A
maybe it wasn't that obvious since no one noticed it straight away, but the choice seems more intentional than not
it's intentionally done to make it seem... not intentional? it could be specifically done to deny info behind neighborhood choices
Then you kinda started lurking a bit and let town cannibalize themselves, if you put me us the small hood and didn't predict me POEing Invisibility as the small hood scum you'd have to be able to deal with a possible early 1v1 with me and I'm not sure you'd want to deal with that.
-A
tbf I did kinda encourage yes to keep it low-key rather than stir the game up again and possibly get us more attention. And I'm really not too sure how you get the idea that he would expect a big active 1v1 from you because of what he expected your towngame to be before finding out it was your scumgame. Obviously he probably won't expect you to lurk as town after seeing how hyper-posty you were there, but that's just a you in general thing not you as town.

Me getting into 1v1's is playstyle not anything specific to my alignment and my point was that if I can be that townie as scum then it's risky for me to be put in the small hood with him. And anyways that was before it was pointed out that scum let the hoods rand

i'm acknowledging this but i wont comment on anything more in light of recent revelations

this feels a bit forced for a rvs vote? are you scumreading me based on that vote alone or are you just happy to vote in the small hood?

The timer for picking hoods hasn't even run out yet, it was probably done by someone who either couldn't care less, or someone who doesn't know the playerlist very well so the choice doesn't matter to them.
