I got the role I wanted YAAY

[davesaz]

17 was in response to gob seeming to go all-in on using the draft numbers to solve the game on that page.
Nothing at all to do with Oblivion's followup question.
Surprised I have to mention this at all, it seems extremely obvious to me what I mean.

[Pavowski]

What is up my most excellent dudes

I wanna VOTE: yessirree in hopes that somebody will ask me:

"do you really think yessirree is scum"

and I can be all like

Yessirree

It's gonna be the highlight of my week and I will happily jump right in the pocket of whoever makes it happen for me

[davesaz]

I got the role I wanted YAAY

It will sound slightly hypocritical, but this plays right into my RVS vote so I have to ask...
An evil role, right? Who picks 666?

[yessiree]

Pure, unadulterated evil

I've never like made a spreadsheet I just played mafia for 16 years and have anecdata

Organic isn't the right word but I couldn't figure out the right word. "The other stuff" is what I meant

Yes O-Ring is a 3 mana enchantment

Your experiences do not qualify as evidence that a methodology is bad, only that it doesn't suit your style. Just as its experiences do not qualify as evidence that Dave's curmudgeoning is explicitly scum, despite it being a familiar feeling to it. It understands that there are cultural differences and playstyle gaps. It has already assuaged two different concerns that it would base itself solely on mechanics, when infact it is clearly doing more than that. But information is information, and if it can use draft info to help corner scum, it's going to do that.

There was like a bunch of other ppl in those games

Although a generational argument is strong

It... what? Apologies, it's attempting to find where it is bragging and is a little lost. Is this an attempt at humor that I'm missing? It's expecting it will be but it doesn't get it.

I am making the humor let me cook

Once per game you may DEVIOUSLY pm the mod to cause MISCHIEF amongst the town.

Pavowski

Do you really think yessiree is scum

[May]

June is kind of scummy and oblivion is kind of towny

Y

Let me see if I can reread about the vibe

This flight might take off before I can

[Jake The Wolfie]

This is not a crumb.
on the off-chance that you think this is a crumb, think again
which it's
not

[Pavowski]

Pavowski

Do you really think yessiree is scum

Yessirree

May is town

[May]

also i think that like every single iteration that i've played of this setup or almost all of them there's been at least one person who goes "noooo the draft means nothing ignore it" but then we used the draft to solve the game or made it easier at some point so there's that

I didn't like this post cause it's written from the perspective of previous games where you were town instead of this game where you are town[?]

[May]

I had to text my partner sweet things because I'm about to go into the upper atmosphere I will look at O-Ring posts next

[May]

Pavowski

Do you really think yessiree is scum

Yessirree

May is town

This made me drunkensmile

[May]

I drank an IPA

Wine mom wine must be consumed at home and I'm disappointed I was not called out accordingly

Jake submitted the best draft number.

It has interesting thoughts about that number. It felt it was strange to submit a number that would be guaranteed to be unique but had no chance of being lowest, as if the intended effect was to land squarely in the middle. It wonders why anyone would want that?

do u actually think ur going to get someones alignment from what numbers they picked. Or from all the history of this setup u looked at has anyone found scum from the draft numbers.

I personally don't care that much its a quasi funny intro to talk about the game but other than that its background noise to me.

It thinks it is a waste to leave information on the table when that information can assist us. That said, it doesn't think that the information itself is a useful tool for deciding our direction.

It is of the opinion that using that information as a Blade to delve into how others respond and play around it, like a sword dance, is valuable.

You don't watch the sword, you watch the footwork the sword forces to see the true intent of your opposition.

(It knows that is probably a corny metaphor but it quite likes it.)

This post kind of undermines any positive image for being the setup spec super jewelry of this particular run of the mech heavy setup so that's towny

When directed to exit jump onto the slide and move away from the airplane

Oh thank God this is an Airbus

When directed to exit the airplane, please do not moonwalk out of the door without intentions of meeting Michael Jackson.

It knows you are drunk and about to board a plane but could you take a moment to restate this so it can attempt to parse? It is truly lost on what this means.

I signed up to this game with the intention of submitting ω (the first transfinite ordinal number, omega) because I thought it would be funny. Alas, this proposal was denied. Instead, I submitted the first 15 digits of Tau, mainly because I didn't want to submit a meaningless large number
