Okay it has been over 24 hours since the last game post and that makes the mod sad. I understand it is a holiday weekend but seriously guys. Moar posting please.

[Toro]

Flargle McJibbleBiscuits.

C'mon guys let's get this game rolling!

[Netlava]

Worse come to worse, we can just randomly lynch.

[Toro]

*raises eyebrow*

[Netlava]

Just kidding, of course.

[Toro]

*eyebrow is still raised*

[Netlava]

Eh, it's an option. At least the dice won't trick us.

Anyways, atm jason is my top suspect. Jason's "sure" gives me a weird feeling. Almost like he secretly wants me to get quicklynched.

Normally, I don't like blabbering on first impressions too early b/c of tunnelvision, but whatever.

@ Haylen, do you prefer playing as scum or town? Just curious.

[Toro]

I'm pretty sure Jason's 'sure' was just a part of the RVS, or he may think you're a bit thirsty for blood. One question, are you?

And you didn't want to get one of either me or Haylen quick lynched?

[Netlava]

Yeah, that's what jason's vote looks like and what it's likely to be. But at the same time, it doesn't really discount the idea of a quicklynch, even though that's what he's voting me for (presumably jokingly, of course). That's why I get a bad initial impression of it.

Anyways, I don't really want a quicklynch. But I prefer shorter days over longer ones.

A random D1 lynch is by no means a bad idea either, but it might not generate discussion heading into D2. But in this set-up, I think it's more effective than normal.

[Netlava]

And you didn't want to get one of either me or Haylen quick lynched?

Nope.

[Toro]

But we have a higher chance to lynch a town player, and then after Night 1 another townie might die, so we'd get a 3 townie v 2 scum game on Day 2. Netlava, if you're town would you

really

want to play with our backs that far up to the wall?

[Zachrulez]

Why do you think a random lynch is a more effective strategy?

Why do you prefer shorter days?

In a setup like this, there isn't a whole lot of room for error. 2 mislynches is game over for the town.

[Netlava]

I was debating whether I would place the L-1 vote, though, if the dice roll came up that way.

[Toro]

Zach, my insta-shadow.

[Zachrulez]

Oh, I don't know if it was clear, but my vote's not random. (I did change it without explanation.)

I was hoping for more of a reaction to it.

[Haylen]

lol my favourite role is SK, so I prefer playing as scum. Now im off to work...

[Zachrulez]

So Netlava, why'd you direct that alignment question at only Haylen?

It's usually a back-up option, if we're not confident in our scumreads / lack of discussion. But power-roles skew this balance.

Why do you prefer shorter days?

Longer days lead to more boring games which lead to inactivity which lead to apathy = bad for town.

Jason's vote is the one that felt weird to me.

What about not including the SK?

So Netlava, why'd you direct that alignment question at only Haylen?

Which do you prefer btw? But there's a reason for it, and I'll answer that after Haylen answers the question.

[Toro]

So you will take quicklynches as a back-up option yet you wish for a short day...

I think you might soon get your wish...

Unvote

Vote: Netlava

[Netlava]

What lead you to arrive at that conclusion? I never said anything like that.

So you will take

random lynches

as a back-up option

and

you wish for a short day...

Fix'D

[Zachrulez]

Why do you prefer shorter days?

Longer days lead to more boring games which lead to inactivity which lead to apathy = bad for town.

Not necessarily. Longer days help the town. More information is gained from longer days. There is a point where it just gets ridiculous though I will agree.

Can you explain why it felt weird?

She did in 42 didn't she?

Town. Catching scum is far better than actually being scum in this player's opinion.

[Netlava]

Not necessarily. Longer days help the town. More information is gained from longer days. There is a point where it just gets ridiculous though I will agree.

Well, I agree a right balance is optimal.

Can you explain why it felt weird?

See 24. It's only an initial impression though.

She did in 42 didn't she?

She said SK. I'm more interested in knowing whether she prefers the traditional scum team or town, which is a bit different from SK.

Unvote, Vote Toro

. Netlava's play just seems like he is trying to get conversation started to me. However, Toro's play really isn't sitting well with me at the moment.

By the way guys, my Birthday is this weekend, and i have plans for basically the whole weekend. So count me V/La until tuesday.
