I'd be even more cheesed if psycho ended up being pr

Cool beans. Now, instead of being an angry individual for whatever reason, how about I remind you that it's probably been 3 years since I last played so the rust is pretty tangible. How about you help me help you so you feel less pissy and I am less useless?

I'm pussy either way though anyways

no psycho hasn’t posted

I was also going to bring Mellon up because they’ve literally not pressured anyone or showed dislike for anyone this game. Only thing they did was defend cel (which I liked but it’s not enough really). But I went with funny because of the distancing with ffa

I do want to hear some of your thoughts though mellon

speaking of eod it's a tough one to read. raeko and roundbox actively didn't vote, but both made posts that at least attempted to be interested in the lynch. plus there were a lot of people just missing. i don't think both raeko and roundbox are wolves because either they could vote cel (extremely awkward if you're raeko) or try to work an alternative out with manti/curry, or busing wouldn't be the worst thing in the world because ffa arguably has the weakest role (due to how gated it is)

i think curry looks bad in a vacuum for being around and keeping his haku vote, but i'm choosing to ignore that for now

so my takeaways are at least one wolf wasn't active and they weren't able to Do A Thing to shift the lynch

Does it happen fairly often when games don't have everyone vote on D1? There were 9 votes which meant 5 people didn't enter a vote and a handful of those people have either posted very little or not at all. What's most important right now with a wolf and 2 human roles killed after the initial night, look at those that have been active and pushing the game or look to those who have been less active or not at all? Yes, I realize that would have me fall into that category so I am trying to fix it. I know with phantoms off, the non-voting isn't punished but I can't imagine that is a tactic 5 people would go for especially with how active some people have been.

it probably happens often that at least someone doesn't vote, but the non-voting/off-wagon-voting rate isn't usually this bad. activity in general has been on a downturn recently, and this game taking a while to fill might have contributed, with several of the generally more active players becoming unable to play

we can kind of do both, but i would lean toward clearing out some people who aren't really playing, for two reasons:
-the people who are active now are either the ones who voted ffa yesterday, or me (with curry and rice being somewhere in the middle i would say). so out of that group i feel like i owe the others each some kind of deference for now
-the people who aren't active are many

phantoms haven't really been a thing for a while - i pretty much lost the first game i played to them and that triggered a debate (though i think they were getting less popular by then too). post minimums have been the newer thing but i don't think this game has one

Assuming most people have their wits about them, and I am sure that is probably everyone if not most, wouldn't a wolf agree more to eliminating a presence who isn't around/barely around just because its essentially giving them a free out? If I was one of the remaining wolves or the Ada, I would tend more to leave the players who aren't around and have a bigger focus on the bigger voices of the group. What is scarier to me is someone who can talk so much that they cause you to corner yourself a slip up. Someone who isn't around can't do that and won't gain as much information as a result. Is that a fair statement or have things changed that much since I last played?

do you mean for choosing a lynch candidate, or night actions?

i think activity dwindling benefits wolves in general, yes

i guess i'm confused because these two sentences seem like they're saying opposite things

i think moving to lynch someone who's barely around would be the free out you mean, but then you wolf the people actually playing at night

i think that's why i feel more fine about raeko and roundbox just hanging around, because they didn't move to lynch some random low poster as a third option when it would have been really easy

yesterday mikey got lynched and he was a wolf

in the night manti and haku died and they were both specials

game is relatively slow now so reading today shouldn't be too bad

called it

[Gun92]

What I meant above is, wouldn't a wolf also use the simple fact that there aren't some people playing as frequently or at all and work toward eliminating one of the bigger threats to them since those not playing probably aren't viewed as a threat?

Now, this probably doesn't help much but I looked at post frequency along with voting and this is what I got. I might be off by one or two because let's be honest here, a shit ton has been posted.

Haku posted 115 and voted
Cel posted 24 times and voted
Roundbox posted 27 times and didn't vote
Curry posted 30 times and voted
Psycho hasn't posted and didn't vote
Mellon posted 12 times and didn't vote
Xel posted 11 times and voted
I posted 11 times and voted
Manti posted 34 times and didn't vote (late)
InD posted 91 times and voted
Funny posted 25 times and voted
Oil posted 10 times and didn't vote
Zoshi posted 129 and voted
FFA posted 165 times and voted

My initial thought would be wanting to know why those that didn't vote chose not to vote. I also found Funny's posts and Oils post to not really add anything to the conversations going on at the time. I also noted that Zoshi unvoted FFA somewhat late into the day phase. That's what I got at this point and suppose my question is towards those who didn't vote and want to know why.

[Gun92]

I don't know if its weird or just me that the unvote on FFA from Zoshi is what is sticking out to me most after going back over everything, albeit in a quick and glancing manor

Just wanna say thanks for putting effort in the game after I bullied you a bit, friend.

but sure try to take your easy target wolf boy

You came in here last phase, dropped some shitposts, made a shitvote, and then poofed. The vote could easily be seen as an attempt to hide the fact that you were totally absent, as there are definitely people who focus on simply voting somewhere as a reason to have an opinion about someone.

Then you come back, throw out a post that does nothing but give an excuse then uses a "no u" tier argument, then you poof again.

Have you just given up as wolf again, xel ?

[roundbox]

I'll contribute more tomorrow fwiw
