You jumped on chili with no justification or explanation except something dumb about horns.

It was an opportunistic vote that doesnt look good on you.

Nah, I'm just , you know, actually trying to play the game. Thats why I'm limiting myself to just one game at a time now. I want to focus and see if I can not be a shitposter/mystery to all.

Basically my reasoning is that I thought it was bad of Chili to continue to vote Taste because of his no lynch thing, so I voted to put some pressure on.

Capps jumped onto that vote without explaining it and I thought that was scummier so I voted him.

it was a joke.

you're going to soft-pedal away this dunk with sarcasm and dismiss anything you can out of hand under the pretense of Mafia Authority, which never really works for you. then you'll transition into actual casework near the end of the day and focus on one or two players making bad points against you, trying to undermine the vote more than actually get scum dunked, because you are scum.

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.

this reinforces the idea that this can't be based on misunderstanding, one cpig or gay is probably lying. i don't see the motivation for pig lying as stronger than imgay's need for survival. i dunno

imgay posted:

Kleedrac's policy lynching everyone. Look how scummy he is!

deflection, not very good. maybe this is a joke but it's not a great one.

Kleedrac posted:

As was pointed out I've made two votes and the first was a joke vote based on the whole "Cthulhu F'tagn" thing - I'm not sure how you could see that as anything but a joke vote.

Chili: I can see what you're saying but we recently completed D&D mafia under GG's administration and the events were an integral part of the game granting big boons or crazy hazards to the participants. It is only because that game was so recent and I saw what the events could do that I'm believing C-Pig's claim of what he got back from the event. Well that and;

imgay has always been the kind of player to gently caress around on day one but this time he's reaching new levels of shitposting - it's either a post-restriction (and in a Lovecraft game I'm not ruling it out) or he's going too-big to convince us he's town - it's why I still believe he's a good lynch candidate for today. Look at the facts:
1) He tried claiming (unsolicited) that he can bring people back from the dead - bringing people into the game once removed which is a super-powerful role.
2) He leveraged this claim into saying he should go on every event - claiming that his power has charges based on events which is slightly sensical but then why go day one when there's no one to resurrect yet!
3) He is just randomposting a lot and very much in a "look at all my posts" kinda way - I have very few posts but I'd like to believe I have several good and high content posts.
4) C-Pig has told us that in the results PM from the event he watched imgay turn into a demon - in a Lovecraft game there is no way this is a townie thing to happen!

I think imgay is the right lynch today - it will give us information for tomorrow regardless because of his interactions with C-Pig and others, and I think it's the right move.

i take issue with this post. i know kleedrac has a habit of getting dunked day one, but this doesn't feel genuine.

I think the phrase "...see that as anything other than a jokevote" is something say a lot. Kleedrac isn't under a lot of pressure, so it's strange he's playing defense here.

Coaching Chili on the particulars of gg's setup feels coaching in a way I don't care for, but I guess it's a legitimate point.

Mostly though, I don't like his casing on imgay. It's all very scattershot and feels like it has been justified after the fact. The complaints about 'randomposting' and 'shitposting' are valid or whatever, but why does that mean imgay is scum? The rest is setup and flavor speculation, but in the most broad way possible.

I want to give Kleedrac the benefit of the doubt today because he's often misread, but I don't feel great about him. I'm willing to vote gay, but I'm actually completely sure in my soulguts that Capps is scum.

I was trying to say that he basically has carte blanche.

I think there are probably nuggets of truth in cpigs claims. There's blood and beasts and whatever, so sure he's gonna respond to parts of it that make sense. And to the point of him posting like a jackass before this. Yeah, he probably was, it was early, I don't really care. I kind of him a pass on most of the recent stuff because he's been dealing with bullshit. Regardless, I feel bad for him, and I don't want to lynch him.

I really can't understand that perspective unless you're scum with imgay. I know chain-dunks and all, but that scenario makes the most sense to me.

Because he's stuck on the idea that it'd be stupid for im to be revealed because of flavor stuff.

Chili's logic is consistent and just doesn't make me suspicious. He says he's throwing it out, idk, it makes sense to me.

even putting aside flavor, imgay has plenty of content Chili could look at. The excuse that he can't parse that content because of the flavor white noise is very silly.
