I want to flip Odd so I can lazily clear LC when he's a wolf
How did you get to 86 posts?
I gave up on the game because I wasn't having fun so now I'm in my broken meta where I don't think about anything I post
u call it broken i call it powering up to super saiyan 2
you're going to love this, trust me. what you're seeing now is my normal state. this is a super saiyan. and this. this is what is known as a super saiyan that has ascended above a super saiyan. or, you could just call this a super saiyan two.

I'd like to determine an ideal POE pool target size. 22 players presents some awkward alignment ratios, so it's difficult to project. For now I am ignoring talk of multiple mafia teams and operating under the assumption there is only one. If so, I see three arrangements that could be reasonably plausible:
a) 16:4:1:1
b) 16:5:1
c) 17:5
The correct answer, if it's any of those, is dependent upon role strength. I have no idea. I think a safe starting point would be to work with (b) -- I'd expect at least one third party faction, and most hosts seem to favor ratios closer to 3:1 than to 4:1, for better or for worse. So on that basis:
5 mafia, 17 non-mafia
In a world with normal killing pace and a non-hostile independent, that'd set up 5 mischops allowable before MiCho/ChoLo. That would demand a POE pool of 10 (5 mafia + 5 mischops). I'm going to reduce that to 9 immediately in anticipation of at least some non-standard night phase killing power.
So my efforts are to get to a comfortable POE pool of 9, or at least as close as I can. That will be an ambitious undertaking, because it requires removing 12 not-JJJs from the mafia pool. I probably won't be able to manage that confidently, but the effort should still be a net positive if it can be reasonably attempted.

i no longer felt comfortable with my vote on fingersplints, and the concerns that i had about marmot yesterday have not been alleviated in the slightest by his posting today.. i got the impression that he may have been trying to play up the dichotomy of tutuu/myself

9 players is the POE target I have aimed for based upon game theory.
I don't think a smaller space is necessary.
poe is such a multi-use word
it can be used for "list of suspects"
it can also be used for "process of elimination"
list of suspects and process of elimination are two things that are not the same
at least i use poe synonymously with list of suspects more often than process of elimination (i was just saying how i find the word, i wasnt trying to correct u or anything @JaggedJimmyJay )
what do you think about the way your earlier voters moved off you
honestly there's way too much random posting rn that's so tangential I can't actually work through it atm and my current opinion is just lynch into them so I'm starting with tsp like mac suggested
I’ll come clean team. I have failed you.
I never expected to survive the night. I was very confused about the char flip and I was on my way to a very hot date. We stayed overnight to celebrate my girl bday and vday weekend. Last thing in my mind was the game... I never submitted an action last night.

literally none of tutuus reads feel real to me and they're both static but extremely volatile, idk how but I don't like that either
I'm beginning to feel the same way. Also of thought/explanations isn't very comforting.

Who's in your group of 9?
I just asked myself "which 9 do I feel least comfortable calling town?" and ended up with 10:
AL_sama
BoKnows
Dom
JPIC
KZA
Long Con
Marmot
Michelle
tedxtr
Tony
This reflects most previous lists. Michelle returns after being out briefly just for lack of content. I am presently working through my mental conception of the game to determine if/where any swaps are necessary. Next one in is probably SPF.
