Pretty neutral on wolo, can see em having this fun as scum or town. I’m being weirdly not pinged by folks I usually expect to (AN, RWC, Josef?) and am feeling weird about it.

I won't win this debate here, but I remain unconvinced that town determinedly mislunching a townie D1 every single game is the correct town play. I've yet to see an example where it doesn't just cull our numbers and leave us in a worse position D2. Like I've said before, the iterations of mafia I've played prevent D1 voting for that exact reason -- it's always going to be a random lunch, barring an outright scumslip or some kind of day power that reveals something valuable. I would have preferred to post clown flavor all day D1 rather than trying uselessly to read people (basically what I did in cultivation), but since Yami is pushing so hard for people to make cases, I tried to squeeze out an :effortpost: based on pure vibes, which was apparently some form of filthy german dumpin' list, and somehow also a faux pas :ghost:

the worst part about playing town in this game is the constant paranoid feeling that everyone is working together to gaslight you

Okay. It’s now D2. The scum killed the poster with the fewest posts. Now what do we do?

(The issue is the town elimination is the only means of town acquiring public information. It allows us to progress forward on D2 because we killed someone and now we have a day of people defending/avoiding that D1 elimination.)

we're going to get a flip to progress forward with on D2 regardless, is my point, unless scum somehow fail to kill

D1 lunch just means 2 flips, which, sure, is more information to work with, but it's also 2 dead (probably) townies

The scum get to pick their kill. They will not pick someone we were largely suspicious of. My point there was if they kill the lurkiest player, you basically redo D1, but the scum have even MORE info while the town have even LESS.

But the discussion around who to yeet on D1 is the important information.

Otherwise scum just NK whoever gives the least info to town (As Sand said, the town with the lowest post count), and they get to control the narrative on D2 as well.

Are you questioning the case on RWC because no one was pushing back on it? Or has RWC's posting improved for you?

Nobody was pushing back on it in the sense that the thread got very stale. People didn't really want to vote RWC, but nobody was really talking about anyone else.

That's usually a sign of the person not being scum, as scum would at the very least try to suggest alternatives.

Something similar happened in the last game.

I pull out an old style dial phone and slowly dial a number. I wait as several ring's span of time pass. "Hello, wologar family? This is Nep, from the circus. I'm afraid you don't have much time, but you need to get down here. It's wologar. We're going to have to fire him out of a comically giant cannon covered in stripes."

If wologar and rwc are scum together it would make sense wolo would vote me so quickly but not vote RWC. I clearly can't apply that same logic for the case where RWC is town but I still think wologar's vote on me is bad
