Nice talk
Why answer like this instead of answering the question
In a situation with me and IV, having a known (albeit tricky to read) quantity puts me in a better position. At least was my initial thought, however as I said I haven’t really given the placement a ton of thought other than finding it curious I’m paired with IV in the first place.

Hey, I was in a previous running of this game.

There ended up being a lot of discussion on which hood to kill in first. After lots and lots of back and forth mech talk, it was decided that killing in the big hood first is better. Despite that, we killed scum in the small hood day one, and then proceeded to lose the game.

I don't remember all of the math on why it is better, but that was Bingle's final conclusion, and I trust Bingle's set up spec better then my own anyways.

Spoiler:
I know, I know. Bingle was scum that game.

But then he stood by it in the ghost chat, and he also said it in the original run of this set up, he had the same conclusion



So, would love to skip all of the mech back and forth and just all agree to kill in the big hood. Thanks!

I was in that game too

Copying my notes: eliminating 3-person hood mafia day 1 is bad because it means the next 2 kills are the town players in the 3 person hood

Scum Bingle put himself, Norwee, and Not_Mafia in the small hood.

So, probably. Norwee and Notmafia are both miselimed pretty often.

But, then Bingle decided to basically get himself eliminated day 1. His strategy was too big brain for me.

I actually have a very hard time believing Norwee didn't tell you anything about how to play this setup in your hydra chat.

I assume the two of you talked about something prior to game start?

It's weird that he didn't discuss his past experiences with this setup with you and you would enter the game seemingly completely confused about how hoods work and whether eliminating a scum in the large group wins the game.

ur under the false assumption i care about correcting ur read on me by engaging dialogue for u to get a better read.
I already sorted u.
This conversation doesn't benefit me to help u make a better read.
I could care less if ur wrong.

U continuing it will not get support from me in helping u along.
U either take what i say as me speaking truthfully or u don't.

I am not helping ur read on me when u continue saying u doubt what i say. Talk to my attorney. I don't need to read u anymore cause i sorted u in town.
