Election! | GAME OVER

[ActionDan]

I'm not afraid of secret ballots. They'll be exposed immediately after election phase. No reason not to play normally

one thing im curious about is whether joats should claim what they used or even if there should be some system for using them. like assume strongest shot first or alphabetical order or something. i definitely think we should keep the remaining roles hidden but it might not be good to claim a doc shot was used. but we also want to coordinate somehow? maybe it's best to just leave it to chance.

if y'all have to use head gear to refer to me, at least call me beanie guy

i think that comment is very much not outside scum-enchant range and the read itself is garbage

how much experience do you have with scum-enchant, furtive?

CAKEZ YOU DO KNOW YOU HAVE LITERALLY NOT POSTED A SINGLE THOUGHT ABOUT ANOTHER PERSONS ALIGNMENT TO THIS THREAD YET RIGHT

YES AND I DO NOT FEEL THE NEED TO YET I WILL WHEN I HAVE A FEELING ON SOMETHING THAT I CAN EXPLAIN

this is only ok when i do it

yes because its an active decision

[ActionDan]

Seconded @datisi

I'd add also that I would have taken 85 more seriously without the followup vote and unvote.

My proposal is use most antitown thing, which could be used against town.


For example, if you see vig, we should waste it immediately so there's no risk of future mafia getting access for it.
Ninja/Strongman/Etc are also good examples. But i doubt it will be in any role.

Others are depending on power actually.

I can't even remember the last game I played where I wasn't bombarded with shit pushes within like the first 24 hours of the game
I just don't care anymore

How is this a shit push?

I get you don't want to have to defend further things, but getting pushed in mafia and having the ability to answer questions is part of the game.

I resent this implication that I'm somehow attacking you personally or doing anything outside of the norm.

I also resent the implication that I'm somehow the cause of a negative mental health decline on you and the emotional manipulation that comes with that.

ok first off I was not trying to imply that at all - my frustrations are sitewide and not to do you with specifically and I know you aren't attacking me personally or anything like that.

That said the reason I got so annoyed is because I feel like you are heavily nitpicking into posts I put about five seconds of thought into and it drives me absolutely bonkers when people do this

Like it's very clear to me that you went from having 0 reads to having LLD scum to saying LLD scum and still hiding it behind a spoiler.

In the span of 3 posts.

So what changed from post 1 to 2?
Why didn't post 2 just out and say what the thing you clearly had on your mind was?
Why did you hide your read behind a spoiler in post 3?

The answer to all of this is literally that I was being silly and having fun. That's it! I promise. I don't understand why this needs to be interrogated so deeply. I don't have a deeper or better answer for you.

hey Cakez do you actually scumread LLD
I townread you rn so if that’s a real read I’d like to understand why

I thought that she might have been fishing for something to scumread me on which is where I started to feel kinda gutscum on her. But then her reaction after I got mad seems genuine enough so I might be taking that back.

I mean mechanically we want town on all of the roles

I think talking about reads is helpful for this purpose

[Ausuka]

And like votes are great and all but we still have the threat of being able to kill people in the near future

I don't think there's any real downside to just like playing the game

[SirCakez]

[SirCakez]

I need more from GL first

do you have a read on pooky already

i missed this but no not really yet but I'd be fine voting him for mayor for a day nothing concerning me from him

[Datisi]

And like votes are great and all but we still have the threat of being able to kill people in the near future

logically i agree but without the threat of Possible Death it feels difficult

maybe it's just me

[SirCakez]

i find this whole conversation to be kind of boring tbh

I need more from GL first

how about cakez says more about this

I don't really have much more to say about that. The setup/optimal mechanics talk always all blend together for me and that's most of what GL has talked about so far, If I had to give a take I would say lean town on GL because I think his interrogation of Datisi's Sheriff campaign seems more likely to be town.

[SirCakez]

okay ya this phase is boring and irrelevant I wanna vote people

[ActionDan]

358 is good posting.

I'm at work all day but I feel comfortable now.

my thesis is we suck at finding town too much within 48 hours of game start for it to outweigh the info it gives scum

[Ausuka]

ok sorry whatever I'll just afk until the deadline

[Bingle]

That, sir, is a garbage post.

My tinfoil theory is that the various JOAT powers will have different activation costs and so which one gets used will be largely a budgetary issue.

I don’t think hiding joat/sheriff identities is likely to work or even be worth our time, but that doesn’t even matter. We can assuredly use the relatively useless board member to funnel information such as costs and available powers from the pt to the main thread, even if people don’t share the thought that the pr pt will almost certainly be infiltrated.

anyone is free to do whatever, im just explaining my behavior

[Bingle]

I'm going to not campaign for any power roles.

why

Two reasons. I don’t think I’ll need access to the pr pt to get the information I need to organize things and I’d rather use the chance to develop reads on other people.
