I agree this was stupid lmao
It caused a previously scumread slot to become mechanically townlocked instantly

It completely changed everything we built up for.
We chose that slot because it had a weakness.
The replacement completely changed that. Itā€™s an OOG influence thatā€™s changing the game completely.

(Iā€™m not saying that Derps is a bad player but we capitalized most on his inactivity which Ici quickly changed)

#14749

i mean the slot was also scummy for other reasons

and then ici subbed in and was obvious town :eyes:

The thing that bewildered me the most

@Braixen how do you know me

#14751

thereā€™s a difference between being obvious town and instantaneously becoming mechanically townlocked due to a great response to the quickfire sub quiz

ngl i dont remember this because i just remember deciding ā€œokay weā€™re not mislynching iciā€ and that was that

#14753

im pretty sure it happened even if you donā€™t remember it

#14754

I remember it as well.

#14755

Then can we talk about Vulgardā€™s slot?
0-poster inactive with no reads for us to alignment cop solving in-thread
If his reads were spot on weā€™d have lost because of him as well

#14756

I mean

even ignoring the quickfire sub quiz the thing where subs sub in and are much more obviously their alignment is in fact an issue

#14757

i kinda see it

well i agree but its a problem with no real solution

#14758

I feel like the replacements in this game benefited town more than my ritual did for scum
Which is an issue, a major one
Like weā€™d have 100% lost if we didnā€™t manage to pull that ritual off

#14759

this is less apparently fixable i feel
i spoke about the subbing policy at great length with the team a few weeks ago
we all agreed that while the status quo wasnā€™t perfect, it was far better than any conceivable alternative

if someone has to replace out for irl shit thenā€¦ stopping them is just wrong

and if a replacement is better at appearing town thenā€¦ are we gonna gate replacements by skill level?

If katze was roleblocked last night, you still would have lost if the town won three coin flips in a row.

and this wouldnā€™t have been a potential risk if wazza listened to me :rage:

#14763

Three coinflips when they ritualed wrong twice and mislynched three (?) times

lol

#14764

Host-made mechanical coinflips due to tied votes, not social coinflips

#14765

Entire scum team outed itself with the D3 quickhammer
