It's a benefit because I don't automatically assume I can't find scum on day 1 for no reason besides defeatism.

Yes town players get voted out on day 1. Yes on day 2 you can analyze who voted for bad or no reasons.

Anything you're saying about day 1 you could apply to a day 2 following a day 1 where nobody did anything.

It's not that I assume I can't find scum D1, it's that I haven't found scum D1; I don't find any of the cases that've been made on anyone particularly compelling and I'm not a big fan of jumping on a bandwagon because "killing someone is better than killing no one," personally. If there was a case on someone that I thought was actually convincing, I'd vote for it - but I'm not seeing one.

You do want an active D1 - I admit that in my last post, I'm honestly not sure how to reconcile that with my general D1 conservatism - but even after an inactive D1 you can't apply all the same reasoning because on N1 we get investigative roles gathering data, night actions firing (or being blocked), and at least some players go into D2 actually knowing poo poo. So no, you can't apply anything I'm saying to D2 after a quiet D1, but it's a nice effort.

It is better, in the grand scheme of things, to kill town D1. No kills get you no info, and killing scum is unlikely to help you draw any connections.

No kills gets you no info - but it also costs you no townies.

This is what I'm saying. Maybe I'm overreacting after having been burned in prior games, but I think the loss of "get no info" is offset by the gain of "didn't lose a townie." I am, obviously, not in the majority with that opinion, but it's what I think.

Throughout the month, Hope Abernathy was the subject of many nasty rumors. Although the unassuming owner of 'The Village Witch - Magic Supplies for the Modern Era' had seemed harmless enough before, some said she was taking payoffs from Tesco. Civil discourse was one thing, bribes quite another. Of course, with a new shopping centre located within walking distance of her own store, which would be miraculously unaffected by the coming development, she stood to make quite a bit more.

Customers stopped coming, and soon Hope stopped leaving the house at all for fear of dirty looks. One day, there was a simple paper sign on the door that said 'Moved to Framlingham - Closed Indefinitely.' After she'd left, people commented that it was 'such a shame' and that they 'quite liked having a bit of local flavour.' Those with senses not common to the waking world realized perhaps a little too late that whatever arcane secrets she possessed were no longer available to them.





Retro Futurist, Hope Abernathy, Lychford Jack of All Trades was run out of town day one!

And hes oh, so good,
And hes oh, so fine,
And hes oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
Hes a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
