  1. And if it's a defense building you lose the element of surprise. At least with a lynch you evade the exact role confirmation.

    Then heavy tank would have a lot of job to do and would be forced to stay defending one person all the time. But you're right, i didnt think this through properly.

    Does a heavy tank protect against engineers? There's no need for scum to worry about a role blocked silo until the final stretch.

    TBH the most trolly thing that could happen, I think, is Voe being a silo, and being unlynchable would give the allies a free pass on who to nightkill and move closer to their victory. We'd be hoisting ourselves by our own petard, as TV Tropes says.

    If it takes you like 10+ minutes to type a post can you even say you were ninja'd? Last post was direct at this.

    It's a common scare tactic, but rarely done. Voe's said even less than KY today.

    This made me mull over my assumptions about voe's role and I think I'm okay talking about openly about them now.

    I suspected voe was a building, mostly because with all the missile silos it'd be easy for Vert to accept any request for lynch proof roles. I was worried about giving scum an early building pick, but forcing scum to waste a night kill on someone who was lynched isn't all that bad a trade. Plus we probably have a multitude of support options with relevant abilities for this situation.

    I was also so deadset on voe being a building that I didn't really consider he could just be scum (or even one of the scum buildings).

    ##Unvote

     I'll have to think about this.

    Well the one time you didn't say something analytical (or at all) D1, you were scum. Maybe I shouldn't 100% clear you, but I've learned to trust you.

    I was going to suggest we ask him why he trusts cat5 so much but I missed him already talking about that here.

    I don't know who to vote for. I just have this feeling there's some sort of punishment for lynching voe (possibly only day 1) built into the game/his role.

    Any first words, Voe?

    Anyone who votes Voe after this post d1 is scum.

     

    First two posts of the game.

    Also I spent way too long hesitating about this but

    ##Vote Killing You

    I thought about giving him the benefit of the doubt and letting us grill him for a bit, but we only have like 3 hours. It's also not every day 1 you get something that looks bad enough to lynch and I think we get more information out of this than just letting voe get lynched with one vote.

    Well we got a little under a day left, I want to hear input from Voe, Irish, and Retaliation.

    @Voe you've been busy eh? That's why the quietness?

    What more input could you possibly want? It's "Idunno lynch Voe?" day. The only thing we can really do is speculate about the overall objectives/game setup. I stopped talking about objectives because that helps scum more than town as cat5 mentioned at some point. I think I also might have set off the above vs underground debate when I only meant to suggest if there's a third party role it's probably a civilian flavored as a scientist.

     

    Anyway if you really want input so bad, I think we're protecting 2 silos with some number of engineers as a trump card.

  7. Good call on needing to be a role sheet for 20 player games. With only 12 people you could get away with only two (not one). It has occurred to me though as a building centric game I bet Vert couldn't resist giving us an engineer. Reviving a building doesn't stop scum from doing a coordinated night kill into day kill attack, but it does stop scum from accidentally winning the game early.
