    Fonti, are your buddies newbies? We play totally straight up. If newbies draw scum, we lynch them.

    Also, I figure that I will be restrained on who I give the bomb to. In fact, I expect objections to m plan beyond Titus could be scum. Null reads are the best to pass it to.

    Titus, we don't lynch newbies on Day 1. It is unfair to them and unlikely to be good for yown. If you desperately want to kill a newbie, lynch them toMorrow.

    fontisian, why did you approach the GD claim thing the way that you did?

    Bill Door, why did you follow fontisian's lead on it?

    Because I hate mechanics discussions, but the gravedigger claim was still optimal.

    How do you feel about replacing into a scum slot?

    Ika: All players have an equal chance of rolling scum, but new players have a greater chance of being falsely perceived as scum. But that's not the point. The point is that lynching someone on Day 1 of their first game is a shitty thing to do, so we're not doing it.

    Info: Shit logic is shit, lynch scums regardless of experience.

    Idea: use sound logic not half-ass logic.

    Titus: would you lynch font?

    font: would you lynch titus?

    Fonti, who is or are the newbies that you are advocating on behalf of?

    If we choose to no lynch then Judge decides the lynch target, right? What are the pros and cons of this?

    Again, Fontisian my suspension of disbelief only stretches so far. The amount of "oops, wasn't paying attention" or "oops" moments are killing me. You pointed to a game in which witches asked for town GD to claim and then killed him early on as a reason to do it. So you used the logic of a game without having read it and vociferously demanded fucking claim. The scummyness doesn't end with you, does it?

    Riley, you going to respond to Snowvon's post?

    I'm actually okay with a Riley lynch if we're trying to spare the newbies. Or of course my optimal lynch: Fontisian.

    And strategic withholding can go fuck itself.

    ika: No, I would not lynch Titus.

    Lyrium: What oops? I didn't read the game because I was in 9-2 at the time. I linked the 9-1 thread because it has the best discussion on all points relating to this game.

    Polysemous of course. Everyone else's newbie protection expired on Night 1 of their first game.

    Obvious cons of judge choosing the lynch is that the judge may be scum and they may not be the best player. (Or they pull a Luckylee and completely forget to do it.)

    ika: Did you not see me ranging in my mentor chat about the idiocy and dickishness of lynching a newbie on Day 1? That game is a poster child for why it shouldn't happen.

    ---------- Post automerged at 11:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 PM ----------

    Nope, Titus's reads have gone back to shit. C'est la vie.

    You're not stupid.

    You had to have realized at some point that keeping the reasoning to yourself and relying largely on your meta or authority would not result in a GD claim in pregame.

    -

    I wouldn't know.

    vote fontisian

    @ika

    While that's true, think about how reliable typical scumtells are when looking at a new player.

    Sorry. The game is played to wincon; not to newbies. We treat newbies wiyh respect, maybe curse less and give benefit of the doubt. We lynch scum regardless of exp.

    There's also the MathBlade lynch from WIFOM which was technically her first game after she replaced into B&T and was also lynched asap.

    Riley and Fontisian, my favorite lynches for toDay. Otherwise let's do no lynch and let the fates, all cruel and sundry, decide.

    Bomb should be given to?

    No, but I thought the many players stepping in to back me up would be enough.

    You realize I was hoping to catch a newbie scum team unaware of the apprentice mechanics in a fakeclaim, right?

    Oh and Atum, weren't you in Werewolf? Weren't several people in there?

    Remember how a townie was lynched because they couldn't be fucked to try? Disappearing when there are votes on you is stupid and worthy of a burning at the stake. Stand up for your townie self or perish.

    Does anyone have a problem with a pass the bomb to nullreads plan? It says a lot about the recipient if they die, and the sender?

    Titus, I will fight you tooth and nail if you try to lynch a newbie on Day 1, because it is the right thing to do. That's all there is to it.
