We're getting 34 degrees celsius here and apparently Germany is getting off lightly.

Southern Europe is getting up to 48 degrees celsius.

Well, aren't we off to a flying start. I thought multiple teams seemed pretty plausible going into this, though I wasn't quite expecting it to come out this quickly.

What are those upsides? Please enlighten the court

We've got what appears to be multiple teams, some of which may not be operating on the same rules if keats post is anything to go on. Having a way to communicate between said teams is much better than not in trying to figure out what the hell's going on.

Additionally you can go and look how people interact with the open claims to figure out their teammates, much like how Gnosia games work.

because finding out keats isnt "town" immediately made it obvious that keats was insane, or naive, or normal -- finding out keats wasnt town didnt mean anything to salad... probably because salad is "SELF-aligned" or even "town-aligned", whatever the 17th player is

salad's post there reads like an AH HA! I CAUGHT YOU, SCUM!

Eh I didn't read it that way. I actually agreed with Salad's read on that post cuz I forgot about your faction claim.

Also I'm severely overheating which isn't good for thinking about things lmao

I do agree with the self-aligned hunt bit though.

Yeah I kinda feel like this is way too pushy, which makes me think there's an agenda behind this beyond just finding the solo.

Zoya posted:

i'm open to alternative suggestions! but yes i'm being pushy because i feel like if i don't push this agenda we'll all get distracted and start fighting eachother, when we should be working together imo

each team already put forth a delegate (or rather, someone stepped forward for each team) -- if you'd like to vote amongst yourselves on a more official delegate, feel free, but doing so would only be exposing a 2nd member of your team

I don't really have a suggestion beyond "Just look at content for who seems isolated".

My main concern is that this disappropriately benefits you/your team.

How might it disproportionately benefit zoyas team. I’m squinting hard at this post to try to ascertain something about what you seem to know about possible wincons

Well for one, Zoya's suggestions just completely collateral damage the identities of basically every team.

Second, Zoyas team might have some specific interaction with the solo.

CubicalSucrose posted:





Galaxy-Brain Sane Mafia: A CubicalSucrose Concoction is an experimental, SANITY-MECHANIC-HEAVY game designed for 17 players (& as many observers as Discord can handle) based off of inspiration from a recent obs-chat idea and a few hours of chatting with Iggy. Most of the positive refinement comes from Iggy, all of the remaining rough edges are from me.

It says Mafia right here.

So I came expecting social deduction.

I understand why people are doing some dumb breaking strat but it isn't fun.

And from I can gather after the solo is out it's basically a popularity contest.

I expected it to fail because of the super involved sanity mechanics.

The last Cube game wasn't mafia either. Cube is a fan of mislabelling his games. Don't be too hard on him

Thanks to Zoya's bit this is no longer a mafia game but a math problem.

Salad just hasn't been on at all yet in our chat since the day opened tbh.

I think RWC too?

It's less lack of engagement and more lack of availability.
