Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
I'm probably gonna say mean things later but speaking strictly outside of this game: we always love new members and you'll always be welcomed here as long you enjoy playing.
Inside of the game though your vote is bad and you should feel bad but past that i await your reads listComment

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
there's more to this though
1) Information. In the late-game we have more information on other players. An inactive player is a ???? that usually necessarily needs to be resolved because their slot is more valuable. That is, the information entropy of each slot is higher in endgame. So when a slot is completely unreadable in Final 5, it's much worse than if that slot is unreadable in Final 15 or w/e.
2) Similar to above--- when we make critical lynches we need them to be informed. D0 is never a critical lynch, so in the world where Inactive X is town, that outcome is less shitty than if you save that lynch for later.
3) Hiding space. Simply put, by killing off potential dead-weight you are necessarily forcing the wolves to engage more, since there will be less hiding room.
4) What happens so many times (read: Animal Crossing game) is that an actual wolf player will get traction in some middle phase, but -somehow- the momentum shifts to an inactive. Usually very hard to tell is anybody is pulling the strings, so we always say "OK, if this inactive is town, ALWAYS ALWAYS lynch this wolfy person" but guess what? There is ALWAYS a fucking way out of it the NEXT phase if there are still inactive presences. This literally is what lost town the last game: our inability to stick to our convictions and instead be distracted by random noise.
5) Making this an actual policy forces wolves in general to post more. This is pro-town since it increases the amount of information we have about each wolf, as well as increasing the volume of incriminating/contradictory/slippish posts
there you go

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
Serious post i think DBP's reaction to Haku skews hin town enough that as long as he doesn't take his town read and dips outta the thread until d2 I'm good to take him off the table
I'll never be able to read Haku d0 so he can just get off my table as well.
I'll gutread Bolth and FFA as town too but we're not taking them off the table so much as placing them on the lazy susan and spinning them to the far side for a bitComment

I'll provide my cheat sheet if someone wants to win this game as town.

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
Like idk if you guys ever played Final Fantasy 10, but if you had Kimahri in your party for the majority of the game, you're gonna have a bad fuckin time in endgame because he sucks. typically you get Kimahri and then never play as him so that those experience points can go to like, Auron or Rikku.

Just having another read up to speed before dinner...
IDK what to feel about most stuff up to #281. I feel so lost without any meta. (other than the Animal Crossing game obv)
I will say that MML vs Haku feels TvT.(she/her - hidden village bunny girl - call me Ulli!)Comment

Re: TWG 194 - Game Thread
that's why you cull inactives early on. QED
