WebMafia Olympics - Game #2 - Star Trek TNG: The Republic of Q [GAME THREAD]

[worcej]

I think it's better to just hunt for scum lmao, but that being said, when all else is equal in terms of my scum sus on a series of people I'll generally vote for the least useful of those people and in my experience it has borne out in history as the better things to do.

When we got rid of shit town early and tracked VCA we tended to do well and when I was mafia, I explicitly tried to force the opposite to occur by going on what I thought at the time to be a suicide run to get rid of durga.

I don't like this take only because you're implying we have free time here to employ VCA.

We have 2 miskills boss - you don't have the luxury to just toss one out.

Don't we have extra because of double day?

No? If we get 2 town today then it's 4-2 on the next day phase and "effectively" KyLo.

[TheFlyingBoat]

Well we have to get one of two the next day, so we have three miskills, not two, right?

[TheFlyingBoat]

Because 4-2 if we go 1-1, it's 3-1 into the night and 2-1 after. So that's 3 MKs in a 9 person game.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

You seem awfully concerned with mechs for someone who scumread me for mechs

You also are worried about wasting MKs while throwing two votes on people off 2 pages

I guess you can say that but I looked at it the opposite that we'd be forced to find one.

I don't feel we have a day to waste in this process and should smack scum now.

When did I scum you for mechs? I scummed you for jumping in and excited posting and I think you'd do that as scum.

Did you not just watch Game 1 of this 'Olympics'? Town fucked up D1 royally by just letting it slip through their fingers.

D1 is crucial and I've just created actual content that is irreversible.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Will being hyper excited rubbed me wrong and I feel obligated to policy a player wanting to make "soft" mechanics here.

What does this mean if not wanting to policy kill me for doing mechs

[worcej]

The 3rd miskill is 100% dependent on getting a scum. I wouldn't really consider it an "available" MK like you are.

The second half was pretaining to Eden - I understand your confusion.

Oh rip

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Still dislike the reasoning behind the vote but like how do i defend against being scummed for posting first lmao

I mean I dont usually post first anyways as either alignment, this is an outlier

[President Eden]

In the meantime we can use &&s to soft vote.

&&vote chaqa

Soft voting is stupid and honestly anti-town in my opinion. It’s not actually any pressure.

I’m not worried about this coming up with me, but I think it’s stupid and reckless to throw a vote out that you can’t take back this early in the phase without any idea how the day is going to develop. So I’d like you to explain the alternative view because it’s not obvious to me at all

I mean that's literally the definition of an available miskill. I think the fact the 2nd day exists is throwing off your math. You don't say in a game where you have 5 miskills that you only have 4 because if you don't catch one after the 5th you lose.

Well we have to get one of two the next day, so we have three miskills, not two, right?

I guess you can say that but I looked at it the opposite that we'd be forced to find one.

Well, yes I think it is fairly obvious that the ideal is that we catch scum as frequently and as early as possible.

I do find your somewhat-coyness about having a vote on you interesting.

[President Eden]

Not having a bot is gonna be cheeks lol.

That’s all I got for now

Wait what happened to the bot?

I might be misremembering, but my understanding was that due to having simultaneous games running and the bot not being designed for this voting format, we won’t have it

IANAGM however so don’t take my word for it

Well that's annoying. But I guess with 9 people it still won't be the absolute worst to just use normal search

[President Eden]

I think I townread worcej for this though

Classic Eden play, negging worcej and then trying to buddy him

I think it's far more helpful for me as a town player to put my firm fist down on you for pushing the "soft votes" because ultimately they mean nothing and should be treated as such.

So, FWIW, I don't think I wasted my vote on you. I firmly believe you're scummy for pushing a soft mechanic to keep the gamestate in a controlled state.

Yeah. No bot this game.
