Why though, even if rayn was Scum, he'd be 'forced' to enact a liberal policy from what he posted.

No, but I don't have any concrete feelings yet, some people make more sense than others, but it's nothing concrete yet. The lack of lynching doesn't help considering we won't get alignments until at least 3 Fascist policies have passed. Though for what it's worth if I were to just blindly pick I'd have a 3:4 chance of getting Scum

In a normal game its also certainly possible to lynch mafia on D1, aka make concrete reads. Making yourself readable and trying to figure things out makes your alignment clearer to other people, and makes poe for townies easier. Idk like... why should i consider you town atm? If you cant answer that, do you think you should do something about it?

Because the most chaotic way to play is to just topdeck after reaching 3 failed elections, and I will vote no to any government including myself being president

In all seriousness, I like to always pass the first go, in any similar game like mafia when possible, to reveal where votes went and talk about that to get more information and give me one more round to work with, since drawing a random card as a policy isn't the worst thing ever, neither is adding one to the election tracker early on.

Whether that's optimal or not, I'm not quite sure but I do like doing it. Considering we can get RNG'd and get a F/F/F draw (unless this is impossible, someone correct me please if it is), I don't see why we're in any rush to elect this particular government.

Aside from the explanation on why I voted no, I don't quite like this questioning. Rayn isn't "forced" to do anything if he's scum/facist-- he can enact something and lie about it (making it him vs krogan, sending liberals into disarray, and trying to guarantee that Hitler/other Facist looks good) and still win the game.

Because you're up for election.

so what do you make of my answer?

Verdict pending but I don't think I'll make much of it.

So why ask in the first place if you don't come to conclusions?

Because maybe you could have answered something else that would have been more immediately useful to me. I don't know in advance what your answer may be.

What would you think if he said he agrees with Rels' idea?

Super weird to encourage people to reject their own government.

Is that more immediately useful?
If not, what other possible answers are there?

I had expected him to be more aggressive towards the people who reject his government.

Eh this explanation is a lot more scummy now that you lay it out. It would be one thing to ask for more time by failing a few and then eventually passing, but now that I think of it, a policy to reject all governments is really anti-town.

On our first draw FFF would be like 24% (someone check my math?), as opposed to a 65% chance (11/17) of a fail from a single draw. That's really, really far from optimal.

I somehow understand rels' reasoning to reject - aka more time to get reads, but then again he isnt doing anything with that time. I dont understand conversion"s reasoning at all.

Yes, getting FFF in first draw is 24,24%.

I'm rejecting the first one, optimal or not. I'm not actually going to reject every single government from here on out.

Be back later, short break today. Interested to see votes, majority passing or not.

How will votes on a government that didn't pass (on the first day at least) be more telling than a passed government?
Like what can you get out of these votes that will help you to read people until you can vote for the next government?

Here is my problem with conversion's reasoning:
As town you wanna do townie things, right? Lets say the strategy for passing first government for vote analysis is legit. But what happens when everyone implements this townie strategy (which they obvs should because townies should do townie things)? You have 8 no-votes, how are you going to do vote analysis?

+ there is the fact that just like rels, conversion doesnt seem to be doing anything, just asking for extra time.

I mean, a townie thing would imo be if:
Try to make reads -> too little time -> ask for more time

And not;
Do nothing -> ask for more time -> continue doing nothing
