Now I have a chance to break free of that. In my heart I still want to be playing mafia games, but I just haven’t been able to bring myself to put the work in that comes with doing that. My brain needs a break.

It provides a way to quickly search for them within the thread if you CTRL+F the word "aubergine" (assuming you're not on mobile).

Asking questions for the sake of asking questions.

Eh, I feel that this deserves a little push-back. Couching your own opinions in someone else's reasoning strikes me as creating
'distance' between yourself and your actions. The follow-up feels warranted to get Jackofhearts2005's actual thoughts/reasoning without basing it on outside logic that he's not claiming as his own.

I think this is a fair take.

I don’t suspect Soneji for asking me to clarify or think it was pointless.

HOLY FUCK CODE RED THIS IS NOT A DRILL JACK IS ACTUALLY SCUM

Does anybody town read any of those players?

Nutella is lock lock lock lock lock town. The other two are specifically the two players that I wanted to be the focus of D1 in my path forward post. Which was always going to happen. Because even though people don't actually listen to me, they still do what I want.

Why? After a ship's death, scraps will be scattered and during the night phase, the person with the most votes will receive those scraps in order to purchase and upgrade parts of their ship.

I will attempt to go for town hunting as it proved to be a solid method for myself. If I get to a scum lean on the line, I'll let it be known, but it's mostly going to be town hunting.

You start with 10.
If you voted Day 0 you earned 3.
You received one per vote Day 0.

Scrap is lost by receiving votes in the Day poll. The night poll is for giving scrap to people. So in this poll we're voting for who we think should be given the scrap from Jack's ship.
