Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]
ps: No lynch doesn't imply we shouldn't figure out who's town/scum. It's just night actions logistics.
I'm doing this because I want to get a feel of everyone's intentions while playing this game. I'm playing this like everyone rolled VT and I want to see who I can read. The night phase is just bonus points. I hope people respond to me like they're VTs to avoid PR hunting too obviously. |

I prodded Arp because I knew based on pregame I could and they'd play my file as intended. We got more from it than that, or at least I did, but you can interpret that for yourself. |

I'm sorry do I lack guts as town?
You can't just keep claiming your pro pressure every game and then think that's actual pressure Quote:
If we're going to let night actions determine the game I could just go dip right now and check in a week if I won or not, like what way to play the game is that? Acting like everyone is VT also rubs me the wrong way but it's not worth launching into at the moment |

Nah, I'm saying it's a guts feeling on my side. Quote:
We need transparency to understand who's town while avoiding to share information about who's a PR. The game can literally end tonight if this is not taken seriously. Quote:
Town can randomly insta Millium and lose. This won't happen with no lynch. The vigi can randomly shoot Millium and lose. Scum can randomly NK Millium and win. This stuff needs to be mechanically optimized. I understand if people don't want to read the OP, but we have to play around the OP. It's not just roles, it's tweaked roles with specific rules on top of it. |

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]
I think my issue with this plan is that you can't find any prioritize townies when you have no way to variety, or even test, their sincerity. The daily vote is the tried-and-true way to do so
I understand the Merlin is in the game and that's scary but it seems that your plan around this is to just have everyone try to "find" town doing the day with no real way to do so and then try to resolve everything doing night phases, in which the Merlin is still in danger like before and the only real difference is that we've lost agency as town to find each other easier. It sucks that we could insta one player and just flat out lose but the solve is that the player that rolled that role will just have to play optimally and hope friendly PRs find/protect them. The solve can't be to play less of the game |

(OOC)
Heads up everyone! I'm heading out for the day to attend my nephew's birthday. I will likely be back tonight, but in the meantime, Sunfan will be large and in charge. Should anything requiring host involvement happen, he will be taking care of that. Have fun!

Tired, didn't sleep super well, car is still in shop and it's aggravating
What do you think of Haku's plan? You'd know about that I imagine |

not sure! there could be some merit to waiting until the second or third day to instalynch, but like you said earlier, it's hard to gauge player intentions without the vote. I'm also kinda paranoid about millium getting voted out immediately, but the probability of that happening is slim enough that I'd personally be okay with voting, at least for now there are also 11 people, which is considerably more than in previous games where we were willing to vote on the first day. that might give us an extra attempt or two? iunno, someone can fact check me there

Did you....ask for a fact checker to see if 11 is a higher number then 9?

nonono, I just wasn't sure if more players = more attempts necessarily, since there are more wolves as well (not to mention the special roles that occasionally result in someone getting booted)

I'm sure SunFan is viewing this with all the math in his head right now dying inside but I'll give the layman's answer and say yeah, we have more phases
Keep in mind there is very little chance we can all agree/get the initial engagement needed to insta d1, or even d2 for that matter. Even with a vigi kill, I don't think this is going to be a quick game |

in that case, I agree that it would make sense to at least try in the first few phases, because the votes can still give us information
