Agreed. Kurumi, you used your nuke in absolutely the worst way possible. You literally had a random chance of hitting mafia, and on day 1, when the random chance is the lowest, no less. You could not have used your nuke MORE incorrectly, barring shooting a confirmed townie.

33% I could hit mafia. Considering that D1 ended in a no-lynch it wasn't that bad.
EDIT:
I couldn't quite hold on the nuke.

Last time I checked, 1 in 3 is pretty bad.... The result of the lynch on day 1 isn't relevant. Besides, last time I checked, no lynch is better than mislynch most of the time, especially in a game with detective roles. Regardless, you didn't need to use it day 1 at all. Using it day 2 on someone who was acting strangely such as Palmar or Foolishness would have been much smarter.

Why couldn't you hold onto it? Your role didn't say "YOU MUST NUKE SOMEONE ON DAY 1". Even if it did, you would have been better served by waiting another 24 hours before launching.

Quit rationalizing. Accept the criticism or don't, but you're not convincing anyone that your shot was good. Because it wasn't.

Your D2 play, however, was good aside from the tendancy to OMGUS anyone who tried to interact with you :/...but you DID try once you didn't get lynched or blown up D1, and for that I thank you.

Think of it this way Kurumi. If you hadn't shot RoL, then you could have used your nuke on one of the lynch candidates D1 when a no-lynch was imminent. OH GOSH AND THAT WOULD HAVE HIT SCUM 100% TOO!

No, nuke has to be launched 12+ hours before lynch deadline.

how is it semantics? you were talking about an imminent no-lynch. By then it would have been too late to launch the nuke

The point of the statement was to show Kurumi alternatives that he could have considered. Whether he had to wait until the following day or night or whatever doesn't change the fact that his shot on RoL was bad and he could have used it more rationally and more successfully on the D1 lynch candidates.

well yes. I was merely observing you pointed out a scenario that was impossible. Are you hungover?

Ok, finally caught up with the thread. Man, I really screwed up D1. I should have just pretended as hard as possible that I was a VT and actually tried to hunt and lynch scum all game. It's just hard to fake it, you know? Also the ##block thing, was, in retrospect, super dumb. lol.
