Yes. Because her MO is based on killing ONE and reevaluation based on the flip, so it functionally is not possible in this setup and Alison would know that.

Your focus on surviving rather than maximizing your agency to control the exe while claiming on paper that you want to dunk all three mafia suggests you are mafia yourself.
Her town strat she is claiming to support is "dive into the loser's bracket and eliminate all the wolves immediately." That seems like a strat that fits the persona Alison presents, in which she has fast decisive reads that she is absolutely confident on and given four chops she can just end it. But that's just a persona. The real town Alison grabs ONE death tunnel, chosen mostly at random, and sacrifices them to see what happens. All the ridiculous sure thing associatives she builds around the sacrifice are just testing and probing. Here she is acting like she wants to bet the game on them instead.
makes sense to me anyways. bracket 2 is where the actual chopping happens.

Yeah that's a problem. Let's say just for grins that we manage to shove all three wolves into the losers bracket and one of them is a powerhouse wolf that can drive the discussion there. Throw in a "I'm just following the powerhouse wolf" townie and the wolves get to kill four town of their choice N1. If you wanna go in there and get down and dirty in a wolf hunt, great. If you are town going in there predisposed to do Alison's bidding, or Mac's, or mine, it would be better for all concerned if you just don't.

hmm, idk. that isn't mech clear. and I don't think it's semantics either i.e. different look at definition. and I think it's too early in game with that minor thing to clear someone. I will note it though. I am a bit back and forth with my read on you, that much is true. I don't think it should make me scum though. just makes me a town still figuring things out.

Timsup2nothin wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 3:21 pm People we need to adapt to the setup here.
There are only three wolves. You get EIGHT votes. If you haven't clued into the fact that people are going to be voting for townies, clue in. We can't just "throw the wolves in the loser's bracket and make them fight among themselves," because we are, by definition, throwing in at least five townies. We have to assign eight people to the bracket with an eye towards whether those eight people will be able to identify and prosecute the wolves among them, not just say "okay, anyone I kinda vaguely wolf read can just get thrown in there and I wash my hands.
Please, everyone quit OMGUS thinking when you get voted for. Townies are getting voted for. Get over it. If we have the perfect town sweep outcome and chop all three wolves in the first cut we will still also chop a townie. If that townie is me and we win on the first cut I promise you I am not gonna cry about getting chopped there.
In my opinion we want at least a couple wolves, and we want townies who can take the heat of an "okay half of us are gonna die here" situation with a clear head and make good decisions under that stress. Are you a townie, and are you that townie? If so, you should expect votes.
