FV, following up on a turbo with a jokey vote on derp but it's a bit self conscious. She makes sure not to put the vote on me, which might make her appear to be a part of turbo, but I was not in any risk at that moment. Her vote on derp doesn't really make much sense even as a joke. Is she voting for him because he said 3rd scum vote or to win my favour? Who knows. Finally any kind of buddying up makes me suspicious even at this point in the game.

Similarly Ecco's votes are a bit silly. They start the old rolling start turbo something that can easily be a joke or become real without much repercussions. After the turbo gets no more than 3 votes, they quietly shift off to somebody else. I can't remember who because I'm phone posting so I'll follow up on this in a sec.

i like your premise but in rereading i don't think there's text to support it.

Well like, being real here for a moment, neither of us had real cases. Mine was over analysis in an attempt to get the game going, yours was overreacting for the same cause. That you immediately dismissed mine to focus on yours was a bit irritating to me. I didn't really want to shut your vote down because I felt the goal of it was the same as mine, so I was left without much to say.

I just don't see FV as self-conscious at all, whereas I do see that in derp's *wink wink thirdvote* post. I'm willing to have a conversation about that if you have more to say.

this reads like forced content to me

you're saying that you agree with my most recent points but not their genesis

and i don't understand the point of that thought.

obviously i'm focusing on uranus because he's scum. if you can agree that you see why i think that he is scum, why is this a conversation?

pig over zzyzx because I don't understand his original vote on derp and i don't understand his unvote. looks like he's operating with oot information.

i feel like it's kind of similar to your zzyzx case. there are worse candidates than zzyzx but i'm more confident about my two picks. i'm kind of curious why you're diverting focus when you've repeatedly backed my case.

my window for paying attention to mafia is rapidly diminishing so my vote is probably where it is.

what is even your point there, fv? that i'm scum because the dunk leader is not the dunk leader now and i think that's weird and bad?
