Should we build a wagon on pine he has to respond to then? I still think Xyzzy is way scummier but Pine slipping beneath the waters feels like a Bad End possibilty.
I mean I agree with this, but you're making the salient points about Pine and I guess I don't see what from xyzzy compares. I earnestly do think Pine is more likely to red flip.In post 352, popsofctown wrote:It's not good but xyzzy is scummier and -remember- this setup is special in that a day 1 lynch allows us to rescue a townie, so sequencing lynches in a way that might generate information or something isn't as good as voting the person you think is gonna get FakeGod using the red fontcolor
I feel like if he was scum, he would have responded yesterday.In post 351, Lady Lambdadelta wrote:Pine didn't respond huh?

Vote: Pine
I dunno, I just think that meta reversal is never really credible, because a.) scum posting is fundamentally just harder than town posting because you need to run counterfactuals in your head and b.) scum are the ones who know everything and only do work to not get caught, so scum posting is fundamentally less rewarding. Those two are invariant so I think that "player lurks as town but not scum" is just nonsense, even putting aside the clearly obvious fact that someone who knows they have that meta can exploit it for free wins.In post 359, Alisae wrote:Yeah I expect effort from scum!Pine considering the circumstances.
I tend to take more pride in a scum game and feel like my individual contribution to the game is less important as town, so I'm more likely to try hard when I'm scum. hitoshrug.In post 361, hitogoroshi wrote:I dunno, I just think that meta reversal is never really credible, because a.) scum posting is fundamentally just harder than town posting because you need to run counterfactuals in your head and b.) scum are the ones who know everything and only do work to not get caught, so scum posting is fundamentally less rewarding.

And if you're not on board, vote xyzzy? Or at least pledge to swap past some threshold if other pushes don't work out. Think we're gonna need every active player cause there's uhh, not all that many of us lmao.
There's no "again", actually, last time you said "Bite me"In post 369, Pine wrote:I'm writing a catchup post while I wait for SUPP results.
Again, I apologize for my absence. This has been a difficult week, and I've been really unmotivated. Should be a lot easier to stay current once caught up.
