I should donate money to webDip so I don't think Chaqa is me when I'm scrolling.

Then again I'd probably be filthy rich now if I hadn't wasted so many years of my life here. Should probably count for something.
YOU DO THAT TOO? I was like "i hate confusing myself with him"
Omg we're so alike

Kill me

We should make a list of people that we want to dk.
Pros:
- Lists are fun
- It would give us a roughly objective voting criteria (since majority is town the data would be kinda accurate of a "generic town mindset")
- Easy to organize

Cons:
- Lists are arbitrary
- It would give scum an idea who to strategically night-kill, especially if scum is near the bottom of the list
- People will be stubborn to join if they think it's a bad idea, tainting the list
Yeah, I think we should be as vague as possible about our preferred kill orders. Killing randomly makes scum pretty likely to lose here, so we should let them nightkill with as little info as possible on how to improve those odds.

What if we do some sort of start-of-day system where we all put forth a name, someone has to second it, and someone has to third it, to get it into the mix?

I've found an easy way to distinguish you two is to look at the post counts and karma. Chaqa has more than double your karma in fewer posts so it's easy to tell you apart that way.

That's what happens when one person spends years lurking in mafia games with +1s banned and the other has never learned when to shut the fuck up.

Fun fact:

Over 20% of my posts on this forum have come in this game. Before it started, Chaqa had 33 more posts than I did.

Isn't that a bad situation, though? Let's say endgame falls to like you, Balki, HR or me, Balki, HR. How the fuck are we gonna know which one is actually priest and which is actually scum?
You prefer three remaining with no clears?
Let's say we're in that situation and it's you, me, and HR.

You both claim to be Priest.

How do I know which to shoot?
How is that worse than if it was you, ghug, and aarodactyl, out of interest?

It changes the dynamic of the endgame from one of comparing their cases against each other to one of trying to figure whose crumbs are better...

A 1 in 2 for scum is generally regarded as superior to a 1 in 3, unless you follow the Damo School of Mathematics, though.

From your perspective, you don't have to worry about other people voting for you if they're both claiming priest and you're not.
