There are various people who accuse others of being "too eager to lynch someone". A general problem in VGC Mafia is that the majority of the town prefers to stay quiet and is content that a couple of players does the work and then gets slaughtered at Night, because the own survival is put above the winning as a team aspect of the game. Some townies keep all their thoughts to themselves to stay alive, seemingly oblivious to the fact that such behavior makes it harder for the other townies to get a read of them. This keeps the pool of suspects high and plays into the hands of scum who, in extreme cases, could even dictate the Day-game if town's inactivity is big enough. But the Day-game is where we make our decision on who to lynch. It's our kill, it shouldn't be an extra kill for scum. Now back to the "too eager to lynch someone" issue. It's bad enough if the majority of the town doesn't actively participate in the game, but discouraging discussion with the implication that those who do scumhunt are suspicious makes it even worse. This will make the townies who are quiet to begin with even more cautious to say anything. Let's play the damn game and make it as hard for scum as possible. As a townie you have no reason to be afraid of anything during the Day-game. It's only scum who prefers a low activity game and this round is a special one, because we have predetermined time limits for each and every Day. We need to get things done in time and this will become increasingly more important as the game progresses. |
I totally agree with this post!
