Open 913 - This Game Started as an April Fools' Joke - Postgame

well you apparently agree with light

why would we not declare our voting intent before night ends

normal play allows for a claim, so i think we should try to figure out who is going to be voted out in the day before it happens

would suck if we just voted out all our power roles when we could avoid it

[Black]

We could just vote like normal during Night and I can try to do unofficial vote counts or something

[awesomeming327]

Yes it is but how did you reach that conclusion

carefully

[OopsieDaisy]

We could just vote like normal during Night and I can try to do unofficial vote counts or something

I think this is optimal but it sorta defeats the point of the setup a bit.

yeah, exactly

I don't really think so. We still have to follow through with our votes and that is bound to cause some chaos. It's like Survivor where we all talk about who we're going to vote off the island. Sometimes it might not go according to plan

[Elements]

Because its not majority needed either I imagine it could easily be smaller wagons

Yea I get what you're saying, I was just sorta interested to see what happened to a discussion phase without votes and doing this would squash that little fantasy lol.

It's defo the better play tho

[Black]

I would be down to live in your fantasy Daisy if other people want to as well. My competitive side looks for ways to win but I think it could be fun to just not do that

[Cee Mirage]

wow, i sign up for a joke setup with a joke account and other people want to play more like a joke than me

i am a failure

[Moros]

i think votes give us things to talk about in the night. we are stuck here for seven days.

yea you gotta step up your game frfr

[Cee Mirage]

i'm sorry, i was bored

i blame how long it took for the game to start, i started actually thinking a bit about things

[OopsieDaisy]

yeaaa this game was cooking for a whileeeeee

100% agree votes are like, the driving force behind d1 discussion in like p much every game i've been in. it's why i'm so curious what would happen without votes. would bandwagoning still exist but just with like opinions being shared rather than clear cut votes? how would discussion evolve? hell how would it start when a random voting stage has no voting?

like these are all rly cool questions imo that i would love to learn the answer to, but also it is objectively suboptimal to not just use the usual voting system so i'm not gonna fight it too hard if people wanna do the votes it does make more sense.

[halfasleep]

i assume we can't vote for fast night for maximum silliness?

[Cat Scratch Fever]

i assume we can't vote for fast night for maximum silliness?

We can but everyone has to be in support for us to move on from this nighttime purgatory

[Cat Scratch Fever]

I signed up mostly for the troll setup but I won't complain too much if someone else wants to herd cats into voting

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Yes it is but how did you reach that conclusion

carefully

I suppose if I were to be a sweaty try hard, my vote would be on you because this was one of the better chances of moving the game forward but you were not having it

[awesomeming327]

This is a towny

[imaginality]

yh we claim votes tomorrow and not claiming/fakeclaiming is a policy lim

sounds good to me

There's good reason to try to over-hammer in the nights as that will prevent scum from changing the lim target compared to if we end up with wagons of say 7 v 6 and scum switch from who they've promised to vote. Having extra votes on the main wagon will weaken the ability to perform vote count analysis but I think that is pretty borked in this game anyhow.

Would be nice if whenever people 'vote' they provide an update themselves rather than one person doing all the work.

I agree. In this set up pseudovotes are like democracy, the worst form government aside from all the alternatives.

did you realize i said something that seemed like i might suspect you and figure you should say this to make me stop?

good point, maybe optimally we all agree to vote whoever had the most votes at the end of the phase

and then scum pretend they counted wrong if anything weird with the flip happened

so who wants to go figure out how to use a vote counter tool??

you're saying this in Leonard Nimoy's voice, right?
