Because I'm faking my style, if I understood Hal correctly.

One time in a game I was a town arsonist and targeted someone with my ability that two other town power roles said they were going to target just so I could kill as many people as possible. Why? Because id never had the role before and it would be funny, and it was.

Should I always be policy lynched from games?

I agree that policy executing isn't particularly nice, and I do find the humor in both what you and infinitum did but it's also very counter-productive for anyone actually trying to play the game. In other words, it's funny to everyone who is not directly impacted. Those who are understandably see it as super lovely.

I'm sorry people are having a hard time believing that someone who literally invented the "vote for lovely players first thing" gambit would start off a game by voting for a lovely player first.


why is 100yrs scum to you?

Whatevs, I guess we just disagree about what a lovely player is

I am voting 100 because all the posts really do sound over thought but maybe it's a European thing.

I tend to agree with Slamburger re: Somber so I've cooled on slam a bit

I think salmonburger is wrongo town. his case on me feels like he genuinely believes it, if slam were scum faking content i'd hope he'd do a little better than 'Bad = Scum.'

so yeah it's like 6am in australia, what are the odds of infinitum showing back up before deadline? maybe... he should have claimed?

for real though, i don't get why asking for a claim is a scum tell. it doesn't make any sense. has anyone ever seen a scum team actively rolefish? it helps coordinate the dunk, which is almost always more important than holding onto your role information in the hopes that you can argue your way out and maintain the small value of that secrecy.

You guys do know that I'm American right? And maybe, just maybe, that's how I think things through. It's got nothing to do with (not) being European. It's like you're not even reading the game.

Jfc so many fevered egos itt

Hot takes, handle with care:

I think infinitum is a solid d1 lynch

-he has yet to claim (really odd for him)
-he hasnt offered any good alternatives but rather just tried to defend himself
-his flip will really tell a lot about who has been pushing for/against

I think 100yrs is rusty and its showing. His writing seems on par with his posting in the discussion thread and i am reading wishy washy sincerity from him. Overall im not super thrilled with his murder

I would much prefer to lynch someone like ecco or chores out of this whole mess.

I must say it is very humbling to have so many people say "ecco would never be so petty and foolish as to do <thing that seems petty and foolish to me>". I did not know you all held me in such high esteem! However I am sorry to inform you all that you're mistaken, I am indeed petty and foolish.

When I say things like "I have nothing but contempt for the lot of you" I am not being cute. When I say "you're lovely and you need to leave our community" I am not exaggerating.

I'm really, genuinely this unpleasant. And I don't care, except insofar as you all think I'm scum this game for it.

I hope this has helped.

Now let's vote for infinitum, who I am sure is a great person irl, but who is beyond awful at mafia.

So, basically we have created this whole mess around infinitum and i would prefer that we just follow through and lynch him.

If we do not, i would prefer we lynch one of the following:

Ecco
Pmom
Chores

Of the three i would prefer Ecco.

What i do not want to do is lynch someone completely tertiary to this whole mess

Second Mate's Log, Day 12
+++++++++++++++++++++

After a resounding and prolonged day of weeping, I finally worked up the courage to address my conflicting emotions head-on, the way I used to when I was younger. A ship's alcohol supply is one of its most protected resources, so they say, but as second mate I had no problem accessing the storage hatch between the boat's top. I attempted to brew a hearty wizard's potion, but unfortunately I lacked the ingredients I would have had in stock in my tower. In the end there are only so many ways to mix beer and wine together, and I found myself settling for a hearty if somewhat tangy concoction of Imperial Stout and Chardonnay.

I still feel the dragging aftereffects of excessive potion quaffing, but if anything I've found it has cleared my head somewhat of my obsessive infatuation with that strumpet Somberbrero. My heart still aches for what it cannot have, but my head aches substantially louder. Equally as loud, and somewhat exacerbating the headache issue, are the crewmates gathered around Infinitum, Slamburger, and 100yrs. It appears that a raucous party is starting up, and at the worst possible time! Oh well. I prepare to fortify myself for what, considering this aging frame, will be an even uglier tomorrow. I look forward to drinking this "dead lime" concoction everyone is raving about!

I feel some pity for Intinitum, but mostly jealousy. Again I marvel at how one man can have broken so many hearts that even now, fresh on a new ship's voyage, some passengers still cannot get over their past grievances. For my part, I have observed Infinitum being nothing less than a consummate gentleman on this vessel, but I also cannot claim to speak for his behavior on previous journeys. I tend to view each new boat ride (or astral projection, in the case of yours truly) as a fresh start, where prior grievances are put aside and all hands assist on top the boat's ceiling.

My feelings on First Mate Slamburger are well-known, and I confess that I am not eager to let his traitorous heart escape the day. Though his love letter to Somberbrero was (I reluctantly admit) rather well-written, upon closer examination I found myself taking issue with his characterization of the fair Somberbrero. (No, no, mustn't think of her lovely face!) Somberbrero was the only passenger openly calling Infinitum a threat to the boat's safety, as opposed to a mere sap on its resources. Yet Slamburger excuses the more emotional opinions to focus on one built upon reason. I fail to understand the arbitrary distinctions drawn here.

I have difficulty evaluating 100yrs and her role in the shipwrecked love triangle that has washed up on our boat. At times she embraces the emotional outcry against Infinitum, while at others she demonstrates a disaffected, uh, affect toward seeing her former crewmate walk the diving board. It is disconcerting, and does remind me a little of a dragon who will disguise himself among peasants to incite them to revolt, without risking himself in the revolution.

My resolve to never share a drink with Slamburger remains strong, and personally I would wish for him to be nominated to the diving contest first. But I am prepared to move my nomination to either alternative candidate if necessary, just so long as I get a good show out of it. Now, time to grab some scale of the dragon that burned me.
