From my past experience, Jimmy Hats always kinda rush for a kill in D1 so I'm not suspicious of him at all.

I might be nedroid biased so I like to see more arguments on why voting Jimmy Hats would be a good idea.

Jimmy is pretty much right about day one though, so why not choose jimmy in that case?

Also wasn't the cat in the hat a trouble maker?

Either I'm still trying to blink the sleep out of my eyes or there's some fundamental inconsistency here. It is strange to hear, in one post, stickup agree with me when I'm advocating more D1 content because we can get stuff out of D1, and in another say that Jimmy's right about not getting anything out of D1. It's sufficiently ambiguous that, really, he's ended up on both sides of the argument, and it feels like he's just trying to be inoffensive over providing honest opinions.

Looking back over it, honestly I can't refute this. I can expand:

I don't want to go into the details of an ongoing game, but the two lynches that occurred during the recently ended day of shine 3 both happened in the early AM for me. One was before I even woke up, and one was while I was catching up before work, respectively. This annoys me to some extent. Time zones can't really be overcome in a game like mafia, and I appreciate it when people don't try to lynch as FAST as possible.

However I very much agree with jimmy hats that day 1 is usually nonsense, and despite how much people might debate the validity of a jokephase (unless there is an n0), I think it's necessity because there is no way (without n0) to make any real cases or arguments unless someone slips really bad.

Jimmy Hats posted:

This is also true, but tbh I think leather's posts feel pretty genuine.

I guess my point is a very fast D1 turbo is not a good for the town because D1 can provide useful info, and because some people (me) may not be able to post/read actively when it's happening

even if I agree with jimmy and think D1 is often a crap shoot, not giving everyone a chance to chime in will result in LESS info, not more

Really? I read that as Jimmy saying I admonished him and then voted him. Maybe I misunderstood.

Yes, I'm voting stickup, but the argument doesn't follow in that case - I'm not voting stickup because he doesn't want to do day 1, I'm voting him because his posts indicated that he was trying to get on both sides of the discussion.

I'm pretty sure this is an honest fuckup on jimmy's part. leather hasn't done anything that earns a vote from me, and I think it's pretty clear that leather is referencing the part of this post I quoted.

Did you not read the second half of jimmy's post?

because you are voting stick up because he is admonishing Jimmy for not wanting to do day1 poo poo and then voting Jimmy, the guy with the most votes, you are doing the same thing to stick up that stickup is doing to Jimmy. It's all very confusing, which is understandable.

It's D1 so I can understand jokey votes and throwing votes around willy nilly, but what I can't understand is why would you throw treats around so casually.
I think they're going to be a big part of the game and to treat them frivolously would be a mistake, especially if it started momentum on it with "Eh gently caress it" style treating.

So a question to the people that have given FL a treat..
Why?

The treats building up on FL are kind of weird.

I don't understand on day 1 of a game like this why everyone isn't just trying to get themselves treated, we are loving cats people, we want the treats for ourselves.

What would happen if we all had 1 treat each at the end of the day, would we all get something good :nyoron:

It's a good and a bad thing though, as the person who gets the treat at the end of the day will potentially be the night kill target, and if they aren't will have to explain themselves the next day (Though there is a potentially a Doctor for this very reason)
It's an interesting mechanic to say the least.

We don't even know what treats do. However i will say that i am 99.99 percent sure that if you treat me i'll be able to use more than one of my powers tonight cuz uh that seems like a thing a cool game host would do.

Anyways i will follow up and say that my joats are watcher, follower, tracker, voyeur.

if asiina is basing this game based on cloaks design then this is a town role. not gonna dip too far down the meta hole though.
