It's a free-for-all, kiddies. No restrictions from this point unless you land yourselves with one.

okay time to start the coals. two person masonry. one of two ways to play it. we just go straight and wait and see when one of us dies and the other claims hoping for a counter claim. i mean 1 for 2 is about a push.
the way i am inclined to play it is to come out guns blazing. we get confirmed and either scum/pfk have to go shooting in the unconfirmed. if it's pfk that's kind of what we want. if it's scum it narrows the pool for a dick. but shit i like those odds. we get confirmed and for all we know scum whacks a pfk and gives our dick a chance to dance around. the other thing. i don't know how much credibility you give to fluff. i give it about a medium plus. that's when we are supposed to be fucking around and scum will at times let their guard down because we aren't really playing kind of attitude. bs, i am always playing.
i am just going to be my annoying self and see what comes out of the tree. but i do think we need to discuss about claiming before too long.

Yeah,
I was thinking that as soon as one of us dies, the other should immediately claim. Mostly to avoid any scum shenanigans once both of us are gone.

probably the best play. what i was considering was more along the lines of going ahead and getting the information out there around midDay. it narrows the pool where the dick will be looking. however, it also narrows the pool where the dick can hide. plus it gives scum a conundrum and provides us no lynch status. i mean scum need to get rid of us but they also want to get rid of confirmeds. and by killing one of us they confirm the other. and by shooting blindly maybe they knock off a pfk. and as pfk i am assuming that they are just a survivor. i.e. wins with either side if still alive. so then we get some protection from a wild shot from them since they just want to win.
obviously if one of us gets into lynch possibility claim fracking immediately.

Another thing I noticed, not remembering Dr. Suess and needing to consult the internet, is that our names will give away the number of masons. In the books there was Thing 1 and Thing 2, no Thing 3 etc.
If we need to claim, maybe we shouldn't give our role name. Of course, it town demands it, we'll need to go ahead and do so. It's probably not that big a deal either way, just something to think about.

kind of what you said. the important thing is to establish that there are only 2 of us. i take the the whole role name as merely color in all games. the fact that maybe there were only two things (i honestly have forgotton) just would further bolster our potential claim if we go that route.
direct question:
do we claim toDay regardless of lynch pressure or not? i'm inclined to do so. but i do see the merits of just waiting it out if neither of us end up as a possible lynch.

the next post i make may be blindingly obvious. but both of us can use if necessary.
plus i want scum targeting us and letting the dick have free shots.
gd, if there is not a dick then this is the dumbest thing i have ever done.
remember my friend.

direct question: do we claim toDay regardless of lynch pressure or not? i'm inclined to do so. but i do see the merits of just waiting it out if neither of us end up as a possible lynch. I say no. Mostly because claiming would increase the scum's chances of hitting an investigator or doctor. Let's see, there are 20 total, probably 4 scum. One lynch today (assuming it's town), means 15 townies. Of those 15, let's say there is a doc a, cop, and maybe something else valuable. 3 prime targets. Scum have a 3/15 chance of hurting us with the nightkill. If we both claim, it increases their chance to 3/13. We're not really inherently valuable to town other than reducing the lynch pool. If we're not in danger of being lynched, claiming adds no value at this point for town, but helps scum find better targets. Now of course reducing the lynch pool becomes increasingly valuable towards the end, but not at this point, I think. But that's just my opinion. Feel free to shoot holes in it.

If I go first, point to post 149 day 1, second paragraph.
Yeah, peek, I am not saying that it's all "woe is me", just I get frustrated with day 1, and view it as valuable only for setting up day 2 and beyond.
Perhaps everone else knows not bailing on the mostly absurd, sometimes overly nebulous scum tells is the proper way to analyze these games, at least on day 1. I don't really have a working strategy yet, cept not lynching the loudmouth, like I said. Or maybe lynch Idle for not caring. We shall see.
Peek n bot, masons. Heh. I was bored.
