A universal townread (doesn’t have to be FA if you scumread her but why?) then picks the second.

It’s arguably a two town leader plan which makes sure scum can’t override it.

So it’s all public. If she claimed to pick another person and then kills them then
Ok let's slow this down MB. Process we should be doing:
1) Pick 2 people who are designated leader-votees tonight, everyone commits to voting within then 2 people
2) We designate 5 people for Titus to make as her superhero team tonight

If you want FA to pick those 2 people I'm not 100% against that, I'm (was, Ank points out my mistake) saying FA shouldn't be 1 of the 2.

There's nothing for FA to actually do as leader or to become leader or to assign leader to anyone.
Sure two leaders FA picks them is fine by me. I just realized FA is universally townread and it moves things along.

I was thinking FA continuous BP and powers makes for a nice combo. But if that is a bad idea then sorry :/ Been working on a clock but the main idea is there

Eddie Cane is in this game? Cool. Who is Eddie?

You’re saying “Hey don’t trust Math because they were bad in Civ”

For starters that has no relevance to this game.
Secondly I really dislike how you’re trying to plant the idea “Math is bad don’t give him powers”
Thirdly you’re arguing it based on a bad reason as I am advocating for a block
Fourth if you think I am bad here fucking discuss it

I am 99% sure you’re just intent on calling me bad to try to get others to doubt me.

So like your argument of “I am bad” don’t give me powers has no merit

What am I bad specifically on here that merits that shade?
I am evaluating your play here but the only reason I am considering you is bc random vote and you being read as obvtown.

As much as you would like it, each game is not a clean slate.

You are not clear and concise in your actions.

No I think it's a decent idea, I even suggested it as an option yesterday. But there was also decent amount of talk about Cerb being NKd yesterday, and if he'd picked BP he'd be alive presumably, and a town redirector can very safely redicrect onto the leader overnight, so he had two safe options and seemingly took neither, oh and scum correctly read a superhero team member pick. The other (paranoid) option is FA is lying to us about picking Cerb and killed him while picking a scumpartner.

It seems more likely scum called Cerb's bluff about picking BP rather than FA lying. I could only see that in an FA Hebi comp.

mm...

That's actually concerning, yeah.

I'm getting a headache trying to parse this into my head. My initial reaction is that pushing for this specifically is a really bizarre gambit that doesn't seem worth the risk this early in the game (even with a dead scum D1), but it's hard to tell without sitting down and mapping it out.

Okay back on point people

FA picks the two leader candidates today. We bold and spam that shit and anyone who objects speak up or forever hold your peace

We need 5 universal townreads where are we on that?

I kind of want Tora/FA's opinion before hashing that out any further.

Plus there's several slots I'd like input on before the end of day.

I'm not sure if there's much more we can do before that happens.
