I think the roles are given out randomly and not based on player skill?

I think the roles are given out randomly and not based on player skill? Normally there's some consideration for balance. I would not expect a possible Sandroba, Foolishness, and the elderly heterosexual peruvian to be of one faction. I think a little less strongly that both hydras wouldn't be one alignment. Town hydras strong, town hydras with strong players super strong. The only issue with this game is the closed setup, so it would be possible that things are balanced around town having strong PLAYERS. But the game would have to be designed BEFORE it was posted, so you wouldn't know who would sign up or hydra, and I don't think you'd balance in light of that. You'd already be set.
There was that PYP game about half a year ago though where all the experienced players were town and the scumteam just lurked to their death. Dunno. I think it's usually random.

Dunno, but I think it's somewhat stupid to accuse one veteran player by "process of elimination among the veteran players"?
|
I think Foolishness is pretty townish for focusing on reading players and scumhunting. I think Ver said something along the lines of Foolishness focusing on reads as town and more on general stuff as scum.
I'm not sure if you're correct here, austin. I read it as Foolishness saying that kush doesn't really care too much generally, but in this game he *does* care (enough to complain about stuff) yet he spends his energy on something as unproductive while he could do something useful instead.

I think austin is most likely town here for being so adamant about this at least.
|
Yeah....... I don't think anyone would expect kush to lead the town.... But it's more about the fact that he's not participating by giving reads and stuff like town kush should be doing.
|
I think it's more about kush not *generally* helping rather than kush somehow magically stopping people from doing some specific thing. kush complains about something - while not doing anything helpful himself - hypocrisy?
|
Just saying that I go out of my way to avoid connecting myself with any of my teammates as scum I either bus, semi-bus or at least distance myself with everyone in my team. So if you think I'm "connected" with Foolishness, you're totally wrong. There's no way I could be scum with him.
And I still don't think that Foolishness's case is bad/scummy. But I'll let him defend himself, I can't be completely sure what he was thinking on that specific point.

this guy. this guy is mafia or he sucks severely. kush's efforts put this guy to shame. And when that's the case you know something's not right.
ROFL. That's seriously so bad as either town or scum. He would be the optimal Vig target IMO. Too bad I don't have a gun.

I don't particularly mind a wagon on him. Maybe he'll show up to do something.

Yeah, I'm totally serious too.

If he doesn't show up with anything good, he can die for all I care.

You can't resist the policy. It will be your doom.

Now you finally convinced me that RNG is a good method for lynching.

austinmcc: There are some things that I'd like to know before I decide if I want to lynch you or not.
1) You were in Koshi's faction? 2) Did you "recruit" anyone yet? 3) What does "recruiting" actually do? Does the target become non-town? 4) What's the specific flavor on "recruiting" someone? Is it something like "being controlled by a Djinn"? 5) If so, I have reason to believe that this state of being controlled is temporary. That's why I have difficulty believing that it works like you said. If you make your target share your QT and stuff, won't he just reveal everything if he goes back to normal? 6) Do you have KP? 7) If so, who did you shoot last night?

Also LOL @ Slam for becoming so townish after being "shot". I think this makes him town for almost certain.
