eh I mean you've given the same refrain every game, and the community I think has become more receptive to it as a whole, so someone might think it's towny idk

more that I don't think you're necessarily going through the motions because "town Lar does it", more that "Lar does it, period"

I think the whole game is town still

Well, that means DBP is 3 wolves in one account.

I never said I was helping I just asked if you thought that would be a good idea

Doesn't mean I am listening to you

[Hakulyte]

I feel like DBP will only appear in the last 2 hours of this phase except that he will forget EoD was sooner and miss the entire thing.

Place your bets.

I think you should investigate what's the most controversial thing happening by the end of this phase.
Alternatively, you can solve coin flips if you think the main topic was T/T.

Yeah actually lets just discuss this now

I know when someone doesn't show at all (not saying DBP will do this, but it's happened a few times) everyone tries to avoid dealing with the slot because "lol it'll get replaced"


We've had that kind of shit blow up in our face enough times to not do it again yeah?

Like it's d0, we gonna probably miss anyway. if someone legit is under 5 posts then instead of the long parade of replacements that also need replacing we should just clear up the slots and not wait until MYLO this time

I'm seriously considering no lynch D0 because I think it will help PRs stay in the game longer and do more night actions.

That would only happen D0 tho. Every other phases would be hunt based on flips etc.

Lynching inactives is something I agree on, but the main obstacle is that this led to outting PRs in previous games.

this is wrong

also, I would be more inclined to think that the ACTUAL low-posters aren't PRs on average

I think I'd rather not risk getting myself killed, and would be more invested in the game bc of a sense of responsibility

Tbh I’m not a huge fan of hunting inactives. I’d rather execute someone based on information (even if it’s minimal information) rather than a lack thereof.

here's your info: top poster is town 99% of the time, 2/3 of the wolves are in the bottom 1/3 of posters more than half the time

bad idea. if you are town this methodology is anti-town.

No-lynch is only good in a final 4 situation

No lynching is just depriving us of info and doesn't clear up any inactive problem because inactives on d0 are inactves d1 like, 95% of the time. No lynching doesn't solve the slots which is the issue I don't want to deal with.

Obviously if we get to EoD and we have a good lead and the biggest inactive still makes minimum posts, I'll be inclined to follow the lead

But you know the situation is rarely the case.

That's proven to lose games. refer to what I told Haku about d0 inactives being d1 inactives

I am also saying that replacing d0 inactives has proven to be not in town's favor in more then one game

I get that it seems like going for information in a game about information would be the right call but I've lost enough to know that you can't even start that step without removing black boxes first. I ain't gonna sit here and let a slot get replaced 4 times in a row and have this giant ??? late game where the possibility of a mislynch benefits wolves the most.

I used to play like that, but it never really helped me much.

Even info can be detrimental if a player wasn't going in the right direction.

"Execute"

we have this talk every game it feels like. I would rather us all coalesce on inactive players (if there are any) as opposed to some vacuous notion of "information" that happens on a first lynch.

I know the subject here is me but I don't disagree with this policy

however given that we still have 24 hours we shouldn't rest on our laurels

[Hakulyte]

tl;dr: We don't have enough players who posted enough to have a reasonable small group of inactives to clear up.

The odds of flipping a random town is just too high right now imo.
