Re: Bonk Mafia (Day 1)
Nevermind, town read on Mizery. I was suspicious of a salad momentarily, but there are lots of other posts in their ISO that give me a good impression (e.g. ripping Lime Coke for a comma, Rondo for going after "anti-town" things instead of "suspicious" things, wondering aloud what makes Rondo town).

Re: Bonk Mafia (Day 1)
Imagine being the mafia team angling itself, whether directly or indirectly, toward a mischop of a Lime Coke -- piece by piece getting closer to EOD with that option alive. Then 12 hours out BANG, nope it's JaggedJimmyJay hahaha cry more. But instead of those mafia having to deal with JJJ in any meaningful way, town lazy-chops the slot anyway and spares them the challenge.
These are the mistakes that await with these four votes, at least for any town among them. Tsk tsk tsk.

I didnt get any sense of angle for Lime Coke being lynched. I saw some votey-votes and a huge overreaction.
I guess the clue left from this for me is tutuu's vouching for him being chill as town rather than OTT but I get i should drop this if he legit had a bad day or something.

Re: Bonk Mafia (Day 1)
Whatever folks may think of Lime Coke's reactions to pressure -- I am here now. We assess JaggedJimmyJay too. I am reminded of a philosophy I mused over quite recently:
Town players tend to be of the impression that it's valuable and even critical to "put pressure on people". They'll place "pressure votes" and hurl "pressure accusations" and things like that. I have certainly done it myself in my many past games. I don't think this is actually the best way to approach a hunt though. People respond to pressure with a certain kind of animation and/or frustration regardless of alignment, and when town tries to assess "responses to pressure" their reads are far more often inaccurate than accurate. A pressured thread is not the answer. Quite the opposite is preferred -- if we create an environment when the pressure released, then we allow town cohesion, cooperation, and camaraderie. The mafia have to try their best to fit in with that world even when they know deep down that they don't belong. And that is how they are caught, either directly or via POE.
Anyway just something to chew on whenever folks do their philosophical chewing. I won't waste further posts on it.
