yeah I tried doing a shitpost with that in my other game but then I learned that Amni just votes for shitposters so I stopped doing that.

At any rate, I have to wonder if I've become the new Steak.

Why are you worried about that? In the previous game you got a lot of credit for getting everyone to focus so early on.

I feel like finding the banner should be priority so that we can buff the builder as soon as possible

For the first build order reducing damage is more important then healing it.

Looking at the projects, here are my views.

Masonry
Walls seems like a good upgrade to help minimize scum messing things up at the start. Later on will definitely prioritize weapons

Carpentry
Arrows unless there is enough faith in a couple people to assign role blockers

Tinkering
Armour Damage mitigation seems like a strong bet right now.

Weaving
Preemptive Bandages Same reasoning as above

In terms of priority I would go
Masonry
Soothsaying
Weaving
Tinkering
Carpentry.

it's not "faith in a couple people to assign roleblockers", the Builder assigns them. And for the tinkering thing, autodamage to attackers sounds way better. Man I do not like your mechanics outlook here and the way you're framing the argument against actions almost sounds actively misleading. Don't want townies to get more powers in hand, or have scumbos stuck trying to explain what they did with em?

##vote hunt11

I am totally fine with the town getting more power. Your second argument about using it to hunt scum is bullshit. The builder would have to reveal themselves to do so and that is when things get ugly.

Mithross posted:

Combat:
The Builder selects 5 players to enter combat at the end of day, after any flips. If the Builder is revealed he MUST fight in combat, in the center row of the front column. Once the Dragonlord knows who the Builder is, if he is anyone but in the center of combat the center of combat will simply move to where he is.

So the builder will be unable to do any night actions as they are always stuck in combat and will be taking constant chip damage.

they're bound to get revealed in the course of events eventually, I'm just presuming that'll happen at some point and you really sound like you're trying hard to find ways to frame things up badly

Listing a potential consequence of using the protection abilities to scum hunt is not framing it up badly.

Bi: I don't think I dropped the argument. I responded to you asking why worrying about how things could go bad was framing the argument. My build priorities were about prevention and to my mind the doors, whilst about prevention feel risky to assign the first day before any major reads could be made.

For everyone else everything to do with the builder, that was just about Bi's view that the roles could be used to pin scum into a corner by forcing them to explain the choices they made.

Also Dragon I had already stated my issues with some the stuff Mega has been doing but here it is in full.

In the game I played with and playing with them they opened up with a serious post to kill the joke phase as quickly as possible and get the game itself rolling. That has generally been met with high praise in the after action stuff for the last game when called out on this they said it raised too much heat or something along those lines. This was just a statement of preference with no vote attached to it.

That is on the first page. Either kill all scum or find the rainbow drop and kill the dragon king.

Bif kinda nailed it. My real hope is that the N1 town actions give us something really concrete to go on, but if nothing else, at least we'll have one confirmed flip to start going off of. So can we please not just do a D1 kill because it's The Thing We Do When Playing Mafia?

There is a reason why it is a thing that is done whilst playing mafia. If we had to deal with the rainbow drop and kill the king you would have a point but we win from either conditions so we should play to both.

Bullshit for bullshit's sake feels worthless to me. It also doesn't help that they are supposed to be experienced and yet things like getting a vote train going in six hours is too difficult to manage and repeating an argument that the thread had already resolved about 2 hours ago.

I'm reading today's post, initial thoughts.

Steak is being Steak and I'm tired of voting him D1 and him being town.

I don't like the no lunch vote of Pmush so I can see that one.

Not liking Hunt's wanting to focus on build wincon and not hunting scum. Why not both?

Charms is still lurking pretty hard.


##vote Hunt

I am pretty sure I am going to die I am going to accept that fact but at the very least don't put words in my mouth. My point was that the build condition would be harder to achieve then the kill scum condition and thus should not be the priority.
