This game will be like a wonderful combination of my two favourite things on the forums: mafia and GWS

SolusLunes posted:

the irony of this is how quickly the game went from shutting the public discord channel to getting out the alignments (one hour to get to me, at least)

it's somewhat reasonable to assume the people who weren't online when I got my alignment aren't captains

they could be picked for a team, sure, so the non-captain list isn't really terribly useful unless we want to go down a giant meta rabbit hole

Aaaaaaaaah, this is because you got picked as scum and your captain must have been online when the game opened

i made a very jokey post about this discrepancy, leaving sci plenty of room to acknowledge it without any seriousness, because i was just playing it off as a joke. however, sci entirely ignored my comment, potentially nervous about getting caught in a minor lie and not wanting to draw attention to it

JC’s speculation about who would be picked by captains is mega scummy: it abrogates any requirement to make a proper case and allows him to attack people for “being good at mafia” regardless of alignment

It is also stupid, because there could be any number of ways that people pick their teams, there are way too many variables in play to use that as a way to find scum, especially before any flips.

Tommunist posted:

Who cares about how he normally plays, its irrelevant to the poo poo he's doing now (being useless)

Further than this, his approach is more than lazy, it’s actively scummy, because it is completely arbitrary and if we adopted it as our way of picking an execution today, it would shut down discussion and give us nothing further to work with on D2 if the target flipped town

I agree with Tommu here, meta is unimportant in the face of a “strategy” that actively benefits scum and potentially harms the town
