More like awESOME

This game sounds really complicated and I wasn't joking when I said I'd need someone to explain the mechanics to me (feel free to PM me, but only if you're town).

Let's all discuss plans and such, that'll be helpful.

Okay, I got it.

So we just force the people we want to lynch to be on the majority side of the thing right? Actually, we should just say "everyone votes YES" unless given an exemption. That way we can just weed out obvious townies and spend the rest of the day figuring out whom to lynch.

Also lynching a lot of people sounds fun.

Okay, so here goes, all those plans are bad. In order to restore stability and intelligence, I have decided to proclaim myself king.

Bow before your King!

The King's Decrees

Everyone must default to voting "Yes" to the simple question in the day-post.
Only if given a pardon by your King shall you vote "No" to the question presented in the day-post.
Do as you're fucking told, bitch.
Anyone breaking the law will be executed.
pls buy ward

This is not a joke, this is seriously how we're going to run this game. I will present a justification to each of my pardons when I post the list of pardoned people. Do not appeal directly for a pardon, prove your worth by posting fuckton of useful shit (as opposed to most of the useless shit that has been posted so far).

Crown Me!

I can half get behind this plan. I don't like the idea of Palmar being some arbitrary judge of towniness, but if we want to do the everyone votes for the same person, and we can discuss and exempt certain people, then I'll support it. It's close enough to my plan, with some added benefit.

dude, if there's one thing I do well it's finding townies.

Also, chaoser's plan is dumb. You should claim to your King to prove your loyalty chaoser.

The plan is perfectly valid because I'm immediately responsible for everything I do/say BC. What you're saying is just completely dumb. I don't think for a second that Incog/Ver did not think of the possibility of town mass claiming to someone, and accounted for it.

Remember, I will post a list of pardons (those will probably be in the range of 3-7 players), and I can and will be held accountable for those reads. Sure, you can try the lone ranger approach. But my plan is by far the best one that's been put out. It's strictly dumb not to try and put obvious townies in the minority, as it means we don't have to spend resources defending them against the lynch.

It's sure as hell a lot better than going with no plan where no one is accountable. This is like the first rule of day 1 mafia play, something I consider my area of expertise, make people accountable for their actions.

Not to mention, if we successfully eliminate a few obvious townies from the pool, it puts increased pressure on everyone in the game to figure out townies, instead of just allowing people to slap their votes onto some obvious townie.

because there's likely to be more than one obvious townie in this game, so why waste resources on keeping them alive, when we have an immunity to give away.

If it's so simple to just "play very townie like", this whole game would be completely pointless, we can just pack up and stop playing mafia, because all scum just "plays very townie like" all the time and the game cannot be won.

And the point isn't whether or not "If Palmar is suspicious". Make up your damn mind. I have the track record to back up the notion that I should be listened to when I'm town. Not listening to me when I'm town is stupid. You either accuse me of being scum, or you listen the fuck to what I say.

There are only two sensible options

a) Think I'm town and roll with my plan, make everyone say yes, unless I pardon them.
b) Think I'm scum.

Why would we randomly vote yes/no, that's just stupid, why would we randomly cut down the pool of lynchees rather than analytically cut it down.

that's why I'm leaving a margin of error. Most likely I'll ask 5-6 players to vote "No" and 12-13 players to vote "Yes". Then we lynch into those 12-13 players without having to waste votes on our most obvious townies. If some people decide to vote "No" without me asking them to, it's time to figure out if they're:

@palmar Why not 8? Don't you agree with what I've said above?

Because at 8 (vs 10) it only takes two lone-rangers/scum to not comply with the plan and suddenly all my town reads are up for lynch (as the minority becomes the majority).

I think 5-6 is a good number as it allows less chance of shit going down the drain.

Also, claim to me.

I'm back.

I'm pardoning Syllogism and Foolishness. They're allowed to say "No" to answer today's question. Syllogism for basically oozing green, and Foolishness for reaching the same conclusion as me about chaoser. I don't think I actually ever said in the thread I wanted to lynch Chaoser, but I did PM that to a few people (Syllo, VE, Radfield, Sandroba if I remember correctly, maybe prplhz, not sure). So Foolish is not just sheeping a read, he came up with that shit himself. That's pretty towny.

As for my other reads, sandroba is agreeing with the plan and following me and syllo, but he'd do that irrelevant of his alignment, as he's smart enough to realize why we're doing what we're doing. His late entry, and him disagreeing with me (confirmed in pms) about chaoser being scum is weird.

BC is being completely fucking useless and stubborn, but he always does that day 1, the fact he's making bad arguments as to why we shouldn't be doing what I'm suggesting is not actually a scumtell.

Chaoser is scum.

VE is scum, for future reference.

Ace is derp

dunnoh about prplhz, he's supporting the right people, should probably just pardon him

Radfield I need to hear more from. I have good feelings about him atm though and his PMs seem pretty townie. I guess I should Pardon him too.

Bugs has said absolutely nothing relevant.

Syllo think sheth might be scum. Sheth, you can prove your loyalty to the King by roleclaiming to me.

gonzaw seems towny enough

Wiggles could be town

Meapak could be scum

I can't remember anything Cephiro said, so it's probably not relevant.

Katinaa is useless as usual.

Echelon is supporting the wrong people, no idea if bad or scum.

I think that's all, if I forgot you it's becuase you haven't said anything of value, so fix that.

nope, tried asking him?

Why are you discussing shit you know is pointless and dumb btw? Do you think I'm scum? Why aren't you just helping us get shit done here?
