We'll be fine. Just unvote before coalition deadline or...actually form a coalition by deadline.
I think I know what you're doing here...
But in lieu of making an ass out of you and me, I'll just ask.

Why? I have a feeling you were posting in jest reading the rest of the post?

edit: I wish more people would vote
You don't think we are going to get a consensus on the coalition, or you don't think we will get an all town coalition?

I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”
nah mbot reads like one of those d1 miselims where, someone drops a bunch of nominal scumtells but it turns out mafia doesnt quite work that way. like, strong guttown read on her.
overall i find the observation that prohawk/umlaut are not in coalitions pretty funny — yes, theyre not, because they don't post (okay, prohawk since has). idk how often scum random heal buddies; if that's usually what happens, then it implies that prohawk/umlaut (in acquiring no such heals) are town, but that's a big "if" and i dont trust it. i think the "people need posts to townread you" explanation is better.
You not being in a coalition was a mental note I wanted to take for future record. I would assume at least minimal interaction between scum partners, but that could be wrong - tracking patterns and inconsistencies is the priority.
I don't think we're going to get a coalition of 5 town because I usually draw associatives by who's willing to elim who - scum could be aiming for a...[pause: I just realized I may be playing this the wrong way] There's literally no long game if they don't get someone in the coalition (or stall the coalition past deadline).
I don't trust MBot and mc esther. And why are there not more RVS coalitions? Lol, this is going to devolve into a popularity contests and I'm here for it. Enchant for Prom...Monarch.

I have never played a game of this design, or any similar so I can only go off of what I *think* scum would ideally do in this scenario, and I am heavily leaning towards them being more apt to coalition one of their own more so than try to distance them D1 because well if they don't get themselves or a partner in then they auto-lose. Ideal would likely be both in I think, but again haven't really run all of the scenarios properly yet at this time.
But yes, odds of a complete town block I think are fairly low.

I've seen games with this setup 3 times, each time town has won on day 1 and scum has completely collapsed.
I suppose this setup somehow makes town bloc very hard? Which I guess makes sense.
Enchant & T3, can you link the coalition games where town won D1? Or just give me their names so I can search for them? This may be easier than I thought.
i happen to have games open in tabs from tallying up early-game scumbuddy heals (yeah, does not happen often enough to say anything about prohawk/umlaut's alignment); theyre just from the wiki though, which apparently doesnt include t3's and enchant's games.
