And also, I like capps now because his posting and point against me was solid. It was a point I would make if I were scum hunting. He caught me using weak and indecisive language.
For reference, (here) is capps' original comment.

I see your point, I actually misread what capps was saying in that post :sparkles:

Still, he should've made that point in the first place. His vote on Somb is Not Good and just reads like an attempt to redirect the threads attention.

In response to people's growing suspicions against him.

See here's the thing:

A) I didn't see it that way, it was really early and suspicions at that time are passing at strongest.

B) Even if people were suspicious, and it was genuine, isn't the most pro-town way of defending yourself scumhunting? I mean, hell, that's always been my attitude and nothing drives me crazy quite like someone doing nothing but defending themselves when they're back is up against the wall.

This is all feeling too opportunistic for me, and this consensus is riddling me with ~bad feels~

If we are all seriously going to sit here and pretend like Capps was reacting to legitimate pressure then I'm not quite sure where our collective heads are at. I feel like most people in this game have experienced the barrage of early day 1 suspicions and should know better than to project some super serious response onto another player.

Consensus is the wrong word, it's more of a movement. A movement I don't like.

I don't like the way Chili and Somber sound positive about their reads (around pages 4-5). Day 1 is always a shitshow of nitpicking small comments because we have nothing substantial to build cases on. I don't know whether or not they're acting more sure because they want people to follow them or because putting forth an opinion with a disclaimer about how you could be wrong is jumped on by mafia players as a scumtell.

Imgay's claimed power role is complete bullshit.

Number one, I think thats bullshit what imgay said, that role is ridiculously strong and no mod would ever put something like that in

Number two, I am immune to psychological damage, whatever that means. So if there is some sort of mindwarping creature down there I will be fine.

OK so your loose claim (and I don't think you should firm that poo poo up this early) is that you have a better chance to not only succeed at the event but avoid negative consequences from said event. I would think that you should be OK with sending imgay for now - if he's telling the truth then the town gets a boon - if he's lying he could die to the consequences. Basically it seems to be win-win.

imgay claimed to have some cloning machine and sending him into whatever the daily situatiuon is gives him a charge that lets him revive dead players or something like that, I do not believe this claim.

Which is why I keep saying to nominate me instead because I will be in less danger because I have immunity to psychological damage.

Imgay may be referencing GG's last game, where Merk begged for a boon on day one, saying that he gets an extra night action from a boon. It pretty much blew day one up.

quote:

Gerald McSwain and Roman Sheldon decided that it would be in the best interest of the group if they both went to explore the crawlspace. First Gerald enters and then Roman.

Fifteen or so minutes later, Gerald climbs back out of the crawlspace as a door that you all hadn't notice before opens on the other side of the lab.

Roman comes out from it covered in blood and behind him is a library.

The day continues, players have been notified of results.
