Hey, Persus, I just noticed you didn't answer my question.
Persus13
There seems to be a string of random voting, with not even actual questions attached, but rather threats/demands. What are your thoughts on the matter?
This is a BM, so I to some extent expected that, however, I do think that it needs improvement. My hope was that people would take the question I asked MOWE as an example for what they should do.
Persus:
MOWE- What do you think should happen to lurkers in a game where replacements are unavailable?
I think if they continue to lurk throughout the whole game and have been warned many times, they should be removed from the game. Having a lurker during critical times at the end isn't helpful for anyone and takes away from the game experience.
Define removed from the game. Remember that I said no replacements were available.
Persus13 and NQT: As IC's, is it really hard to play both scum and give townie advice, without revealing your true colors? Or better, how far can we trust your advice, if you're giving it as scum, and therefore won't fall into such traps as likely.
Well, I've never been scum and an IC player at the same time, so I wouldn't know. I've only been scum once, and I was in a position where I was one of the more experienced players. Then I said things I believed where true, and used them to attack other players and actually defend a few other ones.
When we say stuff in italics, take that as 100% true. If it isn't in italics, it's either my opinion, or gameplay, so not necessarily true. We may le to you, if we're scum, but it won't or shouldn't be on how to play the game. Scum still need to win, and the best way to do that is appear town. the best way to appear town is to be as truthful as possible.Persus
Do you think it's important to grill everyone on day one?
I think it's important everyone gets grilled on D1. If people are trying to avoid the spotlight, you should definitely grill them, but you shouldn't worry so much if someone else is doing the grilling of another player and it is satisfactory to you.
Any IC advice for me in that regard? Because I realize that that's something I should be doing, but I just don't know how to go about it.
Mind if I take this too? Figure out something that works for you that is participative in the beginning of the game.
Being an active lurker is something you want to avoid as other people can't get a good read on you. One possibility you could do is ask questions about hypothetical situations to other players. If you're lucky you can get questions going. Another is to try and set traps. And a final method is to intercept questions intended for other people before they've answered it Don't actually do that last one, you'll get attention, but of the kind you don't wantOh very well, fishy mcfisherton. Out of this group, one of the IC's, probably Persus, because I find him harder to read than NQT.
What's this in response to, and should I take this as a complement?
