A locked thread I can post in? I wonder how mad Pooky will be when he finds out I gave him the pagetop.

Probably pretty mad. Have you met that bear? No sense of humor at all. And he doesn't share his drugs. Like, as far as murder teddy bears go, he might be the angriest one I've ever met.

Oh shit, he can read these, can't he? Uhhh.... I mean... Pooky is a kind and gracious mod who definitely doesn't have a giant murder robot he's threatening me with to say I approved of this setup and you should definitely not call for help.

I stand by my judgment to pooky entirely on this one. Very high swing, straddles the border between mafia and LSG.

We considered briefly giving scum perfect knowledge of games in return for their 6th player, but ultimately thought this would be more fun and exciting.

I was under the impression that pooky would publish parachute drop times at the beginning of the event instead of having to be here for each parachute drop like a madman, but it definitely did end up being forum musical chairs and it was hilarious as a spectator.

Also, just be glad I wouldn’t let pooky go forward with his red light/green light game which was literally just spam generation in PTs.

I think we could have done the tug of war that didn’t kill anybody event in hindsight, but it probably would have been even more townsiding. Would have been great to see the response to “No one dies, the event was entirely meaningless.” Though.

I for one didn’t discount the chance that that would happen but didn’t expect it to.

I thought it more likely it would be an everyone for themselves kinda thing with people only grabbing for their top reads.

I also considered what actually happened as a decent likelihood (dueling cliques) and a sort of hybrid where some of the thread would try the organized way and be disadvantaged in doing so.

People play mafia for fun? Pooky, why did you make me kidnap a bunch of contestants for squid game 2?
