Totally not holding a grudge against Kyo for vig shooting me N1.

Oh thx for reminding me, I wanted to say that biased reads are bad for town

I’m not a big fan of D1 lynches to be honest. In all the games I’ve seen that happen, it usually is a LHF town.

Then again this could be my ToL experience coming into play.

And not to mention, having massive postcounts also creates a higher entry barrier for newbies, who also feel obligated to hyperpost and pressured to “keep up the postcount.” Or they just won’t play, because they can’t be arsed to read so much content every day.

And that’s bad. Having an influx of players is good. We need to make new players enjoy the game, not drive them away through unreasonable posting expectations.

What about not-new players?

It goes without saying that everyone should enjoy the game, but massive postcounts are unenjoyable for newbies especially. It’s such a huge entry barrier. When I started playing, we wrapped up entire games within <4k posts. If I started to play now, I would be completely overwhelmed.

Looks at Clash of Cults

My first game had 2.5k posts, and I still was overwhelmed
But I had a player who led me through the through reading process ingame (thx Geyde), and I was able to read every post multiple times
So I wasn’t completely lost

Hyperposting.

I thought you had heavy association with astand and went to preflip them. Astand wasn’t in PoE and you were.
That was my main reason for shooting you over Astand. If you flipped scum in my eyes I had two; including one that was in towncore.

Yeah I was in your PoE, which resulted in the unfortunate vig shot N1.

That’s a big “aside from”

I feel like you’re just nitpicking instead of being constructive.

I’m cautious to draw a direct correlation between posting more and wolves winning is all

You’ll note that I have not been opposing your general conclusion, just making sure we don’t oversimplify things

:popcorn:

I agree the post counts make it very hard for others to re eval. Its gonna be hard to lessen posts though as usually I’m just posting my mind. Will keep the memes to a minimum

I’m mostly an outside observer at this point so I’m trying to get insight here

This is better. And I agree that it’s not the only thing. But it’s an important thing which is also easily fixed, which is why I’m posting about it. It’s by far the most important in my eyes.

we cant really do anything if its the players

we can do something about the post counts

so…lets try it, see where it goes
