Second Mate's Log: Day 3
++++++++++++++++++++

We have been sailing on this ocean for what may have been months. I do not know, for I only just arrived in this body three days ago. Of all the people to project my consciousness into, apparently the only one suitable was a middle aged, inexperienced but competent second mate. And to think that I abandoned my wizard's tower for this! Fortunately, I suspect that none of the other passengers have caught on to my real identity, although there have been a few close calls. Just last night Pinterest Mom asked me where the mop was, and gave me a funny look when I told him it was "on the left side." With some quick thinking I blamed my inexperience, and then gave some competent orders in my middle-aged voice. Crisis averted.

That reminds me. I have yet to tell the crew of my premonition of disaster that brought me here in the first place. I debated long and hard about whether to attempt an astral projection simply for the sake of a boat. But I also had some heavy intense dreams about a boat sinking, over and over again, followed by a smoky, mushroom-shaped plume of ash. After several years of debating whether I should do something about it, I eventually flipped my staff. It came up heads, which is an unusual way for a staff to land, and I'm beginning to suspect that my apprentice Rufus may have secretly been loving with me in the process. But who am I to deny the tellings of a staff flip?

Some of the crew are giving me funny looks. But it is my penchant to scribe in my diary upon the deck, in full view of the open ocean. It calms my nerves, yes, ancient and mystical nerves that have been tempered in the fire of dragons and the blood of, uhm, dragons. One time I was in the middle of fighting a dragon, and I felt I had to fart really badly. My magical training and expertise reminded me that to pass gas while being assaulted by the burning demons of hell would be a fatal error. But a smart tactician defies convention. Just as the mighty beast swooped in for a chomp at my rump, I let rip a mighty gust that would have felled even the most deadly of ogres. A giant explosion furled out, engulfing and dare I say vaporizing my hated foe. It was a sight as impressive as its smell was rancid.

I close this entry with a few personal notes. One: be sure to tell the crew at some point about my premonitions of disaster befalling this ship. Two: stop eating so many beans, lest I spur the wrath of the attractive shipwrecked woman. Three: work on writing without speaking out loud.

Excellent. I loved your space marine in ths Aliens game

EccoRaven posted:

the stalling is because the window for it being a turbo has ended and now well-meaning (but ultimately harmful) townies/scum pretending to be townies are saying "wait hold up we can't vote for someone unless we think they're scum!" which is a good policy to have 93% of the time but alas this is one of those 7% of the times.

the people who follow mafia rules like that aren't wrong, since, again, 93% of the time they're doing the right thing, but without room for that 7% of nuance and compromises they can't do what needs to be done.

(what needs to be done is taking out the trash before we get into the weeds of the game. if we get lost in the weeds we'll have to sift through the trash, too, and that's just gross, I don't like rummaging through garbage if I can help it and neither do you all. So let's do the needful and call it a day.)

Okay cool ecco didnt leave for good then

Somber, can you explain why voting Inf is a good vote?

Dick is this some kind of strange omen baby situation where you are in fact the devil-child and ruler of the scum

Because i feel like there is some kind of crazy plot twist in this tale

pmom's explanation makes perfect sense for me. I wasn't really thinking about how Inf's likely future posting factors into it, I was more concerned with the push itself. Do you think I'm too easily persuaded?

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.

Btw chores have you read your PM yet?

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

sorry, that was rude. what i meant was 'you're being kind of an rear end in a top hat here and i completely get it because i have played mafia with infinitum before, and outside of the whole policy dunk thing i think you're actually handling it pretty well, but my guess is that's why moat wants to vote you.'

Not a huge fan of this

Theres more but i guess you could say i just play mafia 'from the hip'
