because when you do anything even slightly different people are like ‘omg you’re acting differently from a town game so you must be scum!!!’
Scum are less rigid than town in how they adapt to situations
That’s why they come on top more often, among other factors
It’s easy to default to this because it’s lazy way and to scumread and lynch someone who puts effort you need to put proportional effort yourself.
Drawing a line in the sand because “some people aren’t posting” is setting yourself up for failure
But we can keep making vague “solutions” that sound good on paper and backfire under any other context
People don’t enjoy having their contributions mean nothing, don’t they?
Doesn’t this cause inactivity?
See where I’m going here
These memes bring back far too many memories.
From personal experience
I was not inclined to find your play in JOAT9 obviously problematic because your play in Marbleympics was way worse in terms of scope and effect
Meanwhile when I’m scum the lost wolf shoots me
nice rickroll
I really liked the anon game tbh
incorrect, all you have to do to not be exed is to not be the least lhf
in a similar vein, to not be dead n1, you must also nope present yourself as the strongest player (rip arete n1 in tosfm)
the initiative to improve townplay thread postgame
so, what did happen in JOAT^2 that was such a big difference that helped town out?
replacements
Re-evaluation
Opening yourself up to different possibilities
Keeping an open mindset
Balancing possibilities and going with the most likely one, etc.
No bullshit mech to taint discussion.
(well, no excessive mech)
I don’t think the replacements would have necessarily stopped players from scumreading the wolves (they were more wolfy D2), but then lol!tunnel might have allowed them to misyeet sulit/flameo
Me
both wolves were talked about as being wolves
but the replacements ended the game early for sure imo
