I like Rosalina for getting the game moving and trying to keep it active. I like his 2 scum picks as well and don't have any problems with his logic so far.

I disagree with what Kursed is saying about mafia theory. In my experience town can actually get MORE upset about a vote against them than scum at times. I don't think Kursed is maliciously spreading misinformation though.

Captain Hotcakes is probably my least favourite slot right now. He had no reason to discredit Rosalina's vote on Gorf by calling it reachy circular logic and he even replied to me saying that there was nothing wrong with Rosalina's vote.

Vote: Captain Hotcakes

@ Stick Dude Stick Dude - Who do you think we should lynch toDay and why?
I have no mafia reads at the moment, and I think it would be better to not lynch anyone at all than to accidentally lynch town. If you disagree, feel free to explain why, I have an open mind.

Actually, lynching nobody is almost NEVER ideal, as it takes away the only control town has over who survives in the game. It basically gives control entirely to the mafia to knock off players one by one with their night kill which obviously limits the amount of information we get. Mafia as a game boils down to narrowing down options of who can be scum with a combination of removing potentially scummy slots and clearing slots as town. In order to win we have to lynch mafia which can 100% not happen if we don't lynch. Any other lynch has at least a chance of hitting mafia. There are very specific situations where no lynching could be argued as the correct play, but other than that, everyone will agree that we want to be using our lynch every Day.

If no one jumps out as scummy enough for everyone to agree on lynching, what do you think of using our lynch to take out inactive slots?

I see.

If someone is inactive and it seems like they never will be active, there's no harm in lynching them if there's no other option we can agree on. I don't think there's anyone like that in this game, though.

@ Kantrip Kantrip : I dismissed Rosalina's vote because I took another look at the angle he was coming from and went, "Ooooh." His reasoning was credible and resulted in a take back.

Yes, I know this will make my accusation of circular reasoning appear scummy. It wasn't for a page further till he explained himself. Gorf seemed like an odd target when he has been silent.

As for my FoS on you, I don't like how you handled Kursed's vote by countervoting when you say that Stick looks suspicious for doing the same thing. For all we know, you're trying to deflect pressure onto a more inexperienced player as a backpedal.

@ Kursed Kursed : Explain your reasoning on voting Stick.

@ RosalinaSGS RosalinaSGS : Read on Kursed?

Did I say Stick was suspicious for countervoting Kursed? I don't remember doing that and I certainly don't feel that way.

Also did you really have to think that hard about Rosalina's reason for voting Gorf? It was still RVS phase....

You may have not said it, but I can assert it from your content.
The same as your point in voting me to begin with.

Do you think that it's particularly productive to vote someone for the sole reason that they voted you first? What does this accomplish? Do you think anyone who votes you must be scum?

Nobody likes to be voted against with no reason why, but that's not the point Stick Dude is making. Do you think that voting against someone just because they voted for you is helpful towards the goal of lynching mafia?

Why vote Kursed instead of me when we both voted for you?

I've answered Kursed's question, and I voted for Stick for the same reason as I voted for Kursed.
You've already made a case to suspect Stick as well.
I dislike how rigidly Stick Dude has adhered to his idea of countervoting to show displeasure. The refusal to unvote before Kursed followed by getting defensive when Hunter threatened to vote him puts me off, and the quick turnaround right after seems strange. However, I know he is new and feel like he could still he learning the purpose of votes and the importance of taking other people into account so the knee-jerk reaction followed by the change in attitude could be totally natural. I would lynch him if it came down to it, but I don't know that I can call him scum at the moment.

Yeah your assertion would be incorrect there.

I voted Stick for pressure and reactions, not because I thought he was scum. What I have said about him recently has no bearing on when you made your FoS.

I mean you thought Stick was scum after his reactions. But you countervoted Kursed before Stick countervoted Kursed and say Stick's countervote made him suspicious as if he were trying to hide if he was scum. I could apply the same reasoning to you.

I didn't say his countervote was suspicious. You're fabricating that point.

Gimme a day to read all this
Really? It's three pages. And you STILL haven't told us why you wanted to lynch Stick (pg. 1 for reference)

Right, we're getting close to deadline. At this point, I'm willing to lynch Kursed (till he replies at least (My vote right now was actually kinda RVS. A day without posts, really?)), Hotcakes or Kantrip. If necessary, I will be willing to vote Gorf or Hunter to reach a lynch, but they are last resort options. Why?
Kursed: He hasn't replied.
Hotcakes: Kinda absent. Can't really read him. A bit like hunter, except a bit more presence, but kinda filler.
Kantrip: He suddenly seems the most sus this early in game. If you re-read, imo most of his posts are kinda filler. He gives off the impression of activity without actually being that active imo.

I want to lynch Kantrip, but would compensate for an inactive: Hunter. I'm not willing to lynch Gorf without him having said a thing.

Sorry, just saw this. I currently have him as null, simply because there hasn't been much content for me to analyse. His early read of Stick seemed a good indicator, but his lack of a reveal makes me question him.

Who are you willing to vote Today?

I'll say that Kursed's Page 1 behavior makes him seem like a loose canon and didn't give much clarification on his votes. I just didn't feel he was too suspicious for how it snowballed in town's favor.

I think Kantrip would be the best option to dispose of ATM. Besides the countervoting shenangians, he's exaggerating previous claims of mine that don't apply anymore as a FoS, and his meta examples and questioning have a slight twinge of filler to them.

Vote: Kantrip

Also, Thursday has passed and where the **** is Gorf?

I actually no longer want to lynch him. Given his activity, we could probably work him out eventually, but the inactives are... inactive. I say we should lynch Hunter, as he hasn't posted for a while without reason. Gorf at least claimed V/LA

:0 all those votes
well, I suppose that they're warranted

Screams town
Kursed had a perfectly legitimate reason to vote you: to get the ball rolling. And you, instead of going along with it, counter-voted, showing disagreement. Disagreement can be showed in different, less anti-town ways. Counter-voting just because he voted you doesn't appear particularly co-operative, imo. As town, we need to co-operate to get as much information as possible.

FoS Stick
(fyi, fos stands for finger of suspicion, indicating I am suspicious of you without actually needing me to vote for you and risk an alpha strike)

Why would you backtrack so suddenly? And why is the fact that this is a game so significant? Doesn't your objection still remain? That Kursed voted you to provoke a counter-vote from you, making your vote entirely legitimate?
As town we need to co-operate?
----------------------------------------------
I have nothing solid on Captain Hotcakes atm
lol Gorf
Kursed hasn't replied
I feel comfortable voting for Kantrip due to his airy responses and countervoting shenanigans
Vote: Kantrip

Oy vey
I have nothing really solid on Captain Hotcakes still >_> but Kantrip did vote and prod him before the deadline
There could be a correlation, and it's something to go off of since I hvae nothing on Captain Hotcakes.
But saying he was night killed because he prodded scum in Captain, is a bit of a stretch.

*inactivity instensifies*
@ Stick Dude Stick Dude
@ Kursed Kursed
Some activity would be nice. Even a statement stating v/la.


Right now, given that we know Kantrip to be town, I'd be willing to lynch Hotcakes. I'll be honest, and I'm not too sure why Kantrip had reacted so strongly to Hotcakes, but Kantrip was town, and I'm willing to trust his instincts.
Thoughts, everyone?
(I'm not saying that Hotcakes is mafia because Kantrip was killed, but rather Hotcakes is mafia because Kantrip is town. This is different from Hunter's statement.)

Other than that, I'll be willling to lynch an inactive, which is basically kind of... umm.... everyone (exept Hunter).

I'd also love to hear from Kursed and Stick Dude, to get the ball rolling on Day 2

I was suprised when Kantrip was killed in the night, I thought it was going to be me.
