Hi Roden! You town?

Mod Notes:

I have edited the Deadline. There were 3 extra days on it, but in the Rule Set and Sign Ups, I stated 7 Days, not 10.

Night Lights looks really townie early on

I don't really think so? I guess Alianna is consensus TR'd but your predecessor SR'd her, so I would be interested to know what you think about her slot. Also maybe read Kitty ISO then have a look at Hu Tao's push for an early Kitty spare. But overall you should probably read everything.

Night Lights looks really townie early on

I'm kinda down to speed-spare them. If they are town, we get a level of enlightenment and also a person SRing me out of the way, so it's a win-win.

@Mod the deadline is still incorrect.

I'm up to page 12. Alianna is fine so far, not super townie but above null. 102 was a good post but I don't feel strongly about her other posts so far.

Also did a quick ISO dive on Kitty and looked at the push. I need more from Kitty to get a read there, and I don't like the attempt to end the Day so early. Don't think they're ever both scum though.

I'm tempted to vote Night Lights.

BZZZZZT incorrect

[Night Lights]

I'm down for Drew but I would much rather go Alianna

[KittyTacky]

Why Kitty?

After Hu Tao said she's confidently TRing him I did an ISO of him and I think he's nulltown.

I also think that mechanically it's more optimal to spare a nulltown on Day 1 than a top townread

UNLESS

we have reason to think that lowering enlightenment/increasing enlightenment has a mechanical effect beside advancing us toward wincon (EX: a town role that only works at 1+ enlightenment would make us want to spare a confident townread Day 1).

Pedit: I am also fine with doing Alianna. What's making you doubt your Hu Tao read?

I know this is modWIFOM but this seems like the kind of mod to make complex games so enlightenment definitely affects SOMETHING.

However! I just realized. To reduce swing and give negative feedback, what if enlightenment buffs evils?

UNVOTE:

WIFOM wifom...

I... feel like the very mechanism of enlightenment itself reduces swing compared to a standard game. Trying to vote out your own team instead of the other means that when you succeed, there's less support to help you continue to succeed; as opposed to standard rules where voting out the opposite team gives you proportionally more support to continue to succeed.

Good point.

[Gamma Emerald]

Plus isn't a quick D1 almost always best for scum anyways?

It is

By default yeah
But I think Boon’s presence makes it actually work out for town’s benefit

[Gamma Emerald]

i'm more curious why people scumread SC

Who scumreads SC?

I thought i read something about them being scumread.

Scummy post. -town for Sakura.

Why?

Dislike this post. It’s saying things that have been said already and I don’t like the tone.
UNVOTE:

[Gamma Emerald]

ngl, go off me please. I'm town but sparing me so early in the day is suboptimal, people need to talk first.

Another post rehashing what others have said but sounding more flat.

[Hu Tao]

I'm not seeing it, what makes Kitty town?

-Python

I have purple in my role PM.

This is the towniest I've seen kitty. I've seen kitty twice as scum.

You were scum, or Kitty was scum?

I was scum with kitty once. And I was town and kitty was scum.

What is Kitty doing here that feels different than his scum games?

Already explained this. It's tone

[Hu Tao]

Night Lights looks really townie early on

Kitty's the towniest

Yikes

[Hu Tao]

I'm down for Drew but I would much rather go Alianna

Drew is scum. I'm fairly sure. His mannerisms are off. That's the best I can explain. Why not kitty? Kitty is obvious town

Have you played with Drew before? This feels like normal Drew to me
