dy. posted:For the love of god please stop trying to get people to provide role information on Day 1. This will not help the town. See THIS feels like you’re trying to show a town mentality while not actually scumhunting. Telling everyone to keep their information to themselves isn’t always the best play. We should not be massclaiming D1 but you’re acting like anyone revealing any info is automatically anti-town.

do you really think the fact that I’m the only 1,1 to choose mason is that loving powerful of a piece of information that I’m SCUM for saying it? Where, if I *was* scum, scum would already loving know this and be clued into it.

Sandwolf posted:No? First post I told everyone what I was going to pick and I stuck with that. This feels like forced hand-wringing, I’m not even sure you think I’m scum. You think I’m forcing a town mentality early on D1 by bringing a somewhat jokey, somewhat serious point to the attention of thread? The de facto assumption that one of the 1,1's might be scum seems like a contrived and meaningless effort to show scumhuntery.

This feels very very contrived from dy but I don’t think he’s scum. I think it’s just early D1 and he can’t understand why I’d claim that so it’s shorting his brain out and he has to think I’m scum

I'm really not concerned by people saying if they're unconfirmed masons or not.... it's an incredibly weak role. More so than that, if they stated they were going to choose that role before getting their alignment, then decided to do something different after learning their alignment, that could mean something. Your cost/benefit analysis doesn't makes sense here. All that being said, if they were straight up joking then whatevs. I don't need to take pregame posts seriously, but it's at least something worth asking about to gauge reaction.

So this is the last thing I'll say on the topic so I don't completely monopolize this conversation: this is not a normal setup. You providing your role information is a direct hint as to what the people above and below you on the list could have chosen. The players at the top of the draft order are particularly important because they are more likely to be powerful roles. You're not just making a (bad) decision to reveal your own role information, you're also making a (bad) decision to disclose the role information of others. Before you claimed: The best information the scum had would lead them to believe that you, Grandicap, Toalpaz, and merk were likely to choose mason and not be a huge threat to the scum. They would feel the most threatened by you. In the #6 draft slot, there is a reasonable chance you could have picked something else. You could have, at the very least, eaten a nightkill that could have hit someone more powerful. After you claimed: The best information the scum have would lead them to believe that you are mason and not much of a threat to them. They can focus their nightkill somewhere else. They know that the other 1,1's are not masons and could be a more powerful role. Sandwolf posted:this feels like you're upset with me for playing incorrectly, do you actually think I'm scum? To be fair, I think I do this with you in every game, but it's the best I got right now.

dy. posted:I can at least rest comfortably with the knowledge that I'm either right about you being scum or right about you playing poorly. How does scum knowing one person is a mason and four people aren’t masons help them find those roles? Sure they know they don’t have to NK me but I’m like 6th on tier. There’s no way of even knowing if the top draft pickers were scum or town! Basically all I did was maybe lower my own chances of being NKed and slightly raised that of the other 1,1s, but I’ve hardly helped narrow down who has power roles or which power roles they have. They know no one above me picked Mason E. Great.

Wait wait wait dy, if I’m scum, how could I be scummy in thread for revealing that info? If I’m scum, scum already know that info, so sharing it with the town would be anti-scum. Your own case on me isn’t even consistent that I’m scum. You’re pushing a case on someone that requires them to be town in order to be scummy.

There’s no way of even knowing if the top draft pickers were scum or town! I don't really know how to make my point any clearer so maybe we should put this discussion to bed for now. It's the same reason it's a bad idea for half of a town to claim "not cop" or something. It only helps the scum. The idea of more of the town doing it scares me.

Because if I am scum, bringing that info to thread doesn’t help the scum, because they already know. Your case on me requires me to be town in order to be helping the scum inadvertently.

I agree that the claim from Sandwolf doesn’t particularly help town and may slightly help scum but as Sandwolf said, it’s a sign of bad play not of scum play. So. Yeah. People shouldn’t claim. And we should move on.

But I personally don’t know if I’m smart enough to play at this level of mental acuity - or rather, sufficiently able to think about it to the exclusion of wanting to post something stupid D1 which I so do love to do - so I am trying to apply this to my read about Sandwolf as well

I just think you know I’m not scum and I’ve tried to illustrate that a couple times but you’ve doubled down on this vote twice and I still don’t see how I’m scum, you just keep pointing to suboptimal play in the hopes that it’s scummy.
