Really? You think we are going to believe that this is the game you finally roll town?

this is why i loving screeched the last 2 times i rolled scum, because nobody is ever going to trust me until i have like 3+ useless town games where i get mislynched.

anyway, my ability is, luckily, one that can be easily confirmed during dayphase. not that it reflects on alignment, but still

it needs mod intervention to manifest accurately in votefinder, but basically i can vote for 3 different people at once.

and this is because voting for more than 3 different people would be literally the least helpful thing late-game. and i cant double-vote on anyone. MAYBE my update would be that, but its not worth hunting a specific country who may very well be town. but if russia happens to die, i'll claim what the upgrade was.

Steak, can you put three votes on the same person or just three votes on different people? When you vote, must you place all three votes?

no, i dont have to place all 3. it can only be different people. hence the VERY limited utility.

What's pro-Town about any of these things?

for one thing, it gets the steak discussion out of the way during jokephase. because regardless of my alignment, nobody here can even argue that its pro-town to let discussion revolve around me.

Except (if you're even telling the truth) being able to stack votes on the same player would be the obvious upgrade, and would be a dangerous power on a secret-alliance aligned player (SAAP).

except from the perspective of scum, that's a very dangerous power for a town player to have.

its really weird that a number of you are characterizing this as flailing.

for one thing, nobody's even voting for me and i am more than used to getting votes on me. do you really think im a player who gets flustered at the slightest pressure as scum? you'd just have to look at my last 5 games to see thats the opposite of the case

So this time you're flailing, to show that you [I]aren't[I] not Town, in contrast with the other games where you played it cool and didn't get flustered when you were not Town? Do I have that right?

you know my answer. this is not a good-faith question. im not engaging with you anymore after this post (for now, obviously)

1) im not flustered. my genuine inside my own brain self-reflective opinion is "no, i am indeed not feeing flustered". that is a hard truth to me, so im sorry that youre reading me weird but you're wrong. im replying a lot because im eager to finally be town

2) i play it cool as scum because that looks less scummy. and i'm a player who will be read as scummy in a million and one ways, so as scum i have to be hyper-aware of these things. as town, not so much. maybe what youre interpreting as awkward is just a result of me *finally* not having to be performative

Can’t tell who is more scummy, Steak for once again making day 1 of a game about him or Lumpen for feeding into Steak’s megalomania

im honestly offended that you have this opinion of me (between lots of games).

idk what to say to it. im not doing this on purpose. i claimed because my role happens to be funny when combined with a player like me, and also has no utility to being secret. sure, part of that has roots in narcissism i suppose, assuming other people would find something amusing based on my own meta. but also who cares? let me find amusement in my own unfortunate mafia meta without leveling real arguments against my character...?

So please explain this vote. Give me a view of your thought process...

The way I see it, it's either
1. Blatant OMGUS with a false rationale
2. Purportedly, based on your expectation of my meta knowledge about you from our 4 games together and your own characterization of yourself that you've awkwardly been flailing about right out of the gate in this game.
3. Or based on your meta knowledge of me from those 4 games, from which you have concluded... Hehhe... that Lumpen... hehehe... "LOVES jokephase" and "doesn't push or probe anyone right away."

My friend, I am the inventor of Content Game. Ruining jokephase is like one of the most salient bullet points of my meta.

Signs point to #1. So why are you ginning up misguided lies to cover it?

because i was trying to provoke you.

I think Lumpen is trying to throw people off until one of them panics. It's annoying but it gives us info. I'm suspicious that Steak is lying about the extent of his power, but depending on what he's covering up it could be for town reasons. If he actually could double stack votes, that allows a double hammer - better not to reveal that until we know we can get at least one scum.

lets clear this up now.

##vote charms
##extravote 1 RF
##extravote1 charms
##extravote2 RF
##extravote2 charms

we will soon see firsthand if my votes can stack. if my 2 extravotes resolve on charms, we know i can stack. once they resolve on RF, it'll be confirmed that they cannot stack.

I guess it’s true that you have no reason to hide it at least on its base power?

If it were to upgrade to a straight tr-tr-triple vote, then you could wait and expose it to quickhammer someone, but that gives away the game pretty quick if you’re scum.

And with that, I’m out for a bit- it’s bowling league night.

thats why i also claimed my upgrade target. there's no possibility of me upgrading w/o you knowing it. i certainly wouldnt have gone so above and beyond for full clarity if i was scum.

but that said, displaying my power isnt to prove im town. amni said roles and alignment were shuffled separately, so scum could easily have had this exact power. i just want this stuff out in the open

B- care to comment on *why* you made that request before this turns sour for you?

in "passive mafia" he instantly copped the 5th person who voted him, or something like that. it'd be crazy coincidence if he has the exact same power here, but i dont find the request scummy in the slightest.
