:good posting:Sonicpulsar wrote:I tend to meta-game as well, based on people who need replaced, etc. It's my opinion that people tend to do the following:
Scum/Power Roles: More inclined to lurk. They don't want to put themselves out there too much for fear of screwing up or saying something stupid. Thus, when given a situation where they don't feel like they can contribute much to the game (the last few posts), they'll tend to lurk rather than post. There's always the classic Lurking in Plain Sight as well. But I tend to find those players just annoying.
Vanilla: More likely to need a replacement. For whatever reason, people don't like to play vanilla. I find it the most entertaining (read: challenging) simply because you don't have any gadgets at your disposal. They're also more likely to be the "strong townies" simply because they tend to feel they have less to lose for the town if they screw up.
Now, I absolutely realize everyone and their sister can think up 50 people who these don't fit, no matter the circumstances, but I'm talking about generalities and tendencies.

At this point, I don't think we can read much into the two guys who might get replaced. There just hasn't been enough to go on.
I dont necessarily agree with a couple of your generalisations, but its very interesting to hear others points of view, however little relevance this discussion actually poses to the game. lol
