how does it feel?

Like I finally am doing what this site was intended for.

Good, real good

[Malkon05]

[Malkon05]

second

Clearly the work of someone who is a MAFIA LOVER!!!!

[Malkon05]

malkon have u played mafia in person before

I feel like I have that energy

Two things.

1. Lots of times! I was actually the Godfather of a mafia club in college (aka president).

2. I think what pants meant by Josh going for "low hanging fruit" meant that he pointed out spangled was being "sketch" for his post and Josh jumped on it. I get where pants is coming from.

[Malkon05]

Learn to read.

"was"

[Malkon05]

question, how do you do the cool vote thingy that josh just did?

Is it like :vote _____: (guess we will find out if that worked rotfl)

[Malkon05]

VOTE: test

UNVOTE: test

[Malkon05]

Ah! Thank you! On with the show

[Malkon05]

kmo = KittyMo

[Malkon05]

Since there's a bit of a lull on that front, I'd like to ask KittyMo, what has you sure an SS vote is safer than a Josh vote at this point? You've brought up how Josh's "omg dat spangled is sketchballs" knee jerk semi reaction is off, but I didn't see where you elaborated why you had a reason for your vote.

[Malkon05]

IMO, the pants read on Josh is the best thing I have to go on right now and I haven't disagreed with anything said on that front.

I'm trying to figure out where KittyMo got her vote on SS which is fascinating.

Also learning the nuances between playing IRL and playing online are fascinating which is why I haven't said much so far.

you're right that i didn't elaborate

i like spangled more than i like anyone else currently, and i see spangled/pants/SS as kind of this pool of warm colored avatars making pretty reasonable/thoughtful sounding posts

i just feel like theyre not all town so i decided to vote one

So by process of elimination you went on SS? Just to be clear.

[Malkon05]

Right now for me I think Josh is a decent lynch option for the reasons pants has outlined.

I could also SORT of see why KittyMo would go for SS in this scenario given what has come up. For me, it's a touch washy especially because it was not explained in depth until I brought it up. So it was just a random choice. Possibly to get the ball rolling, but KittyMo did nothing to help stimulate the conversation, which makes me wary of her.

[Malkon05]

Welp if SS is going to "sorry Malkon it's a boring game" and then vote Malkon, I guess I need to set a vote.

Pant's reasoning on Josh is the best option I see today for a vote.

VOTE: Josh

[Malkon05]

I don't know what EBWOP is. Are you asking me who would be my lynch preference no questions asked based on round 1 right now?

[Malkon05]

Thanks

[Malkon05]

Well I would be least likely to want to vote pants without compelling reasoning at this point. He had the best reasons for wanting to vote Josh and it made sense fmpov.

Spangled is probably town based on what I read day one.

So it comes down to SS and KittyMo to me. KittyMo's reasoning for choosing SS was a little weak and she offered little to no insight and stayed on in spite of compelling evidence that there was a better option at the time.

[Malkon05]

It's entirely plausible. Please prove why it couldn't be.

That being said I'm not closed off to suspecting Spangled, the reasoning against him is weak at best so far though.

Plus if it's not me or Pants, then its two of you/kitty/spangled

[Malkon05]

It also makes a phenomenal cover story for day 2.

[Malkon05]

Alright KittyMo, as the person I suspect the highest of being mafia lover at this point, why have you backed off SS today? You had a feeling it was him yesterday, but now have just gone to "i don't trust any of you.gif"?

[Malkon05]

Distancing in this setup is a terrible idea because there's never a need to convince someone you aren't teamed with your partner-- if either you or your partner flip, you've already lost.

There was also no need to vote you, not really talk about why, and when questioned basically give the equivalent of "idk its one of these three".

Just a lot of oddness to that whole dealio round 1.

Also, why aren't you more suspicious of KittyMo? She voted for you and didn't provide an explanation and you never once tried to counter it.

[Malkon05]

Then by all means, if you are suspicious of her, please declare your thoughts lol.

[Malkon05]

So I'm clearly pushing KittyMo or at least strongly suggesting her.

You are saying I would push my own mafia lover this round?

[Malkon05]

Malkon I asked you but I don’t think I got an answer: what’s your lynchpool today?

Because I don't play online, idk what a lynchpool is which is why I don't know how to answer your question.

I've already told everyone and been very vocal that I believe it's KittyMo and SS.

[Malkon05]

Looking at the wagon from yesterday, I feel like with how hard it was to kick things into gear, it was not two scums joining. I feel like that means one or both of Spangled and Malkon05 are basically guaranteed town to me. I could almost buy that it was an entirely town wagon since scum might be afraid to hammer to draw suspicion.

Currently looking into whether KittyMo and S_S are scum.

So, my opinion on yesterday, and what i was kind of trying to talk about 10 minutes before the day ended that nobody would really engage me with, is that the very obviously dominant narrative was that everyone was suspecting josh and no one was trying to do anything else

meaning the scenarios were a) scum were afraid to push something else or b) scum were content with this

they probably lose in scenario a so i was more focused on scenario b and trying to push elsewhere

Crap I had forgotten that scum don’t bus in this scenario. It would have been nice if you had reminded us of that, but I can’t really fault you for that, ‘cause I had forgotten it.

ummm.......i thought i did

Woah woah woah hold up. You called out Spangled for being weird about ellipses, but now you are fine to do them?

[Malkon05]

..................

[Malkon05]

having a "bias against ellipses" is kind of odd to then use them later rotfl.

I guess it could be a joke, but I didn't read it as one. Ah the glory of text over the internet.

[Malkon05]

You think I would be so petty to choose someone as mafia because I don't like them? lol.

SS is fine, just avoiding any town talk making me think he is scum.

[Malkon05]

Would you like me to vote KittyMo and put my money where my mouth is then?

[Malkon05]

I'm relatively confident.

I'm not sure who the second between SS/Spangled is. But the logic thus far has pointed to Spangled being town so I'm basing a lot of why I think it's Kitty/SS based off of that.

[Malkon05]

VOTE: KittyMo

[Malkon05]

Wait pants there is no tomorro!

[Malkon05]

nice work pants truly great mafia playing <3

[Malkon05]

And sorry KittyMo, guess your gut feeling was right.

[Malkon05]

Yeah I totally thought it was you SS XD that was pretty bad town playing.

I should have been more open to considering pants. Ah well, you win some you lose some!

[Malkon05]

I had this weird feeling after pants posted that he was scum but there was absolutely ZERO time to change the vote.

[Malkon05]

You are good kmo! Clearly I probably shouldn't have been super laser focused on you d2. I just had this feeling it was you. My bad <3

[Malkon05]

Weeeeee worst town ever <3
