GG does read scummy, or at least awkward. I think he's the most likely false positive in this game though, he's just kind of scummy. I'd vote him to avoid a no-lunch but probably not otherwise.

Gangsta is pretty new and he's been read as generally scummy across a lot of his games, I'm hesitant to push him day one just for sounding awkward.

I mean, the reasoning was in the post right before hers? I dunno.

The line questioning regarding Alasdair seems silly. His point is valid at face value, I would be willing to vote Opop. I also think that it's very strange that Alasdair's point is suspect when we're this early in the game. Some way worse votes have been thrown out recently.

if we're going to get technical, nobody was defending opop until just that particular moment (when i intervened)

cases usually go back and forth

voting while disregarding any defense to put opop at 50+% of the votes needed is a pretty critical momentum move

why is it a pretty critical momentum move?

i understand the defense being made but i don't agree with it. i don't think opop's actions or reactions to being called out speak to a town mind. his casing is lazy and inconsistent and forced.

I think we can probably play Mafia without being lovely to one another.

I don't plan to move my vote. I won't have much time to play from here until Monday. We'll be hosting a couple get-togethers with some out of town guests and that's going to occupy a lot of my free time.

Blah, getting the grumbles over both these candidates now.

Opop I think not claiming here is pretty risky and not a pro-town move maybe. I mean if you're a power role that sucks, but it would also suck if you were a power role and got lunched.

I was just thinking about how nice it was to not be the top day one candidate.

Opop is the smartest lunch for today because that's who most of the discussion has been oriented around, it has the potential to make tomorrow's discussion especially potent. I'm not unvoting unless he claims a power role. Role fishing is probably an especially stupid argument in this particular setup.

I'd probably have something to say about the momentum here, but I try not to be an idiot just because it's fast.
