Never played this setup, what's the theory?

I'm torn on the idea of openly discussing theory like that. On the one hand the Mafia inherently has an information edge in general, but in this game there may be some edge the mafia can gain if everything's out in the open.
What theory discussion are you talking about?

You have two votes.


Do you really think that's enough to be relevant at this stage of the game?
Quoting this just because it would be hilarious if both votes are from scum

That's a really weak reason to townread someone. We were hardly in RVS to begin with.

I mean sure, but even by those standards this is weak. It doesn't make sense since we were already having real discussion as of like #24. You yourself were already making a somewhat serious vote in #39.

I'm more interested in reading you specifically since you're the wagon of the hour, so specifically I'm trying to figure out how legitimate your townread is.

Quiet game.


I like Andante for town, she's being proactive and provocative. Though I also don't understand .

Chad posts are reasonable and solvey, townlean for now.


My vote on bianco is not actually random, it's based on which bugged me because I don't think it's reasonable to just immediately sheep "I think my partner is scum" from Andante when she doesn't even believe it enough to be voting there herself at the time, and it seems like a way to put down a vote down for an ostensibly defensible reason.

Heads up I'll be out socializing IRL all day today and not really have time to check in.

We should consider whether to claim lovers before end of day. Optimal play is to eliminate the scummiest pair, not just the scummiest individual, so that's useful for town to know.

Kind of agree with Andante's solve, tbh. (Incidentally, since we're close to end of day I'm going to come out and say I'm Andante's lover. Would appreciate others following suit, though really we only need one more to know the full set.)
In post 128, Bub Bidderskins wrote: NK15, with all due respect, I don't think you understand the case against Andante or the setup of this game. The case isn't about Andante townreading their lover...or even so much them making it public. It's about trying to yoink control of the game at the start:
In post 65, Andante wrote: vander also lean town. bam! leaves scum in 4 people. I'm too good :)
This kind of overconfidence based on totally unverifiable info leads me to think that Andante is trying to guide the town down a certain path.

You understand the setup right? I knew who my lover was from the jump.
I don't know how to justify it but this post put Bub at hard town for me.

I guess the short version is "being insistent on a case that they're being told is bad" which I consider to indicate that they actually care about casing and eliminating Andante specifically, whereas scum wouldn't be picky enough to bother. A lot of it is gut feeling based on the wording and tone, and if you read it differently I don't know how to transfer that feeling to you.

I'm good with Bianco, agree the couple has more joint scum equity than Chad/NK.
