Neat Sloonei counterwagon you got there

Would be a shame if something happened to it.

I have a separate mental compartment for Scotty + Sig tinfoil at the moment, but I'd like to see if Sloonei gets some more original thought going.

Maybe you explained but I only skimmed the thread before going to sleep, why do you TR Vivax?
Sure- I Townlean him
Vivax is almost a Townread because I think he’s held his own making reads on people he doesn’t know and is making some (I think) baldly wrong reads but messy is good. I’ve never played with him, so I’m cautiously guarded, but like his input so far.

I only vote early if I'm not going to be around close to the vote. It's the way it used to be when there were no changing votes. The introduction of movable votes brought nothing but chaos to end of day. I don't like chaos. I don't like movable votes.

On the flip side, waiting until end of day makes end of day much more swingy. I’m probably not going to be around EoD, I’ve been yipyapping all day, and I still have no idea who you think is bad.

Looking over your posts in reference to Wilgy, you first townread him and then you didn't have much of anything of substance on him. You had stronger cases for others. This vote seems to come out of nowhere. Your gameplay so far looks like trying to fly under the radar so far Day 1.

To everyone, this whole debacle with Scotty has taken my focus away from what's important. I've been focused on defending myself so much because no one seems to understand my words!! It's taken all my energy and I haven't been able to see players for what they are doing.

Vivax is on my radar.

One thing I’m I observing is people (including me, mea culpa), really have forgotten or don’t know some stuff about playing role madness games.

Some thoughts:

There are ways to solve low posters without thread pressure. Not saying pressure is bad, but it doesn’t live alone as a solving tool.

People do drop subtle role hints. What seems off topic or bantery, isn’t always.

There are good reasons for civs to withhold stuff. Skirting pressure on particular things might be role protection. Not providing a tonne of content might be role protection.

Caramel isn't a seasoning. It's clearly a cereal, which is in fact a toad.

Though, some car smell covered caramel sounds good.

Voting for Golden the Coward for poopooing on my attempts to sort out game mechanics to the civvies’ advantage. He’s also high post-count, which gives us lots to chew on, right or wrong. His tone is pretty level, but that (along with his posting volume) could be a ploy to place him right at radar level. He’s present, posting, and engaged. At this early stage it’s easy enough to give someone like him a pass for a few days just on those qualities alone.

[VOTE: Golden the Coward] aubergine


I have a meeting tonight that may push right up to eod. I’ll hang around up to the start of the meeting, but I can’t promise that I’ll make it back before the flip.

I feel the same way, DH. We shouldn't have to use them in this old school game.
I just vastly miss the ordered voting. It made things so much crunchier. I don’t have the time or energy to sort through that now tho.

If they wanted votes to be unchangeable that would be pretty old school. If we lose that role, you might get your wish tho :noble:

I remember when the aubergine thing first started and the tag was gross and the word aubergine was bigger and the whole thing legitimately, not even kidding, zero "DH doing a bit" - made me nauseous having to read.

I think it would be really helpful if there were points given as to why you are voting someone when you do so.
Don't like the game state, would like Wilgy to do stuff as he's sort of just there for a majority of players.
Looking over your posts in reference to Wilgy, you first townread him and then you didn't have much of anything of substance on him. You had stronger cases for others. This vote seems to come out of nowhere. Your gameplay so far looks like trying to fly under the radar so far Day 1.

To everyone, this whole debacle with Scotty has taken my focus away from what's important. I've been focused on defending myself so much because no one seems to understand my words!! It's taken all my energy and I haven't been able to see players for what they are doing.

Vivax is on my radar.

Editors note from Modern day grumpy Wilgy: I'm not sure as to if posting in gimmick is going to give the viewers of the thread an aneurysm or myself one first. At least I'm not full emoji posting again though.

I am also no fan of movable votes. There's too much scope for last minute manipulation and it gives an advantage to people who happen to be around when the poll ends, which is not possible for everyone. As others have pointed out, it ruins vote order analysis, which is often very useful.

G-Man voting for Golden makes no sensee to me, as I totally agree with Golden's point that you shouldn't base your gameplay on assumptions about mechanics that may or may not happen in the future.

Here's an observation:
Sloonei came out of the gate with "sig is obviously mafia" very early on. Sig voted for Sloonei. When Sloonei was leading the lynch poll, sig moved his vote away from Sloonei.

Could we be seeing some brazen media teammates that call each other out early on Day 1? If so, I have to applaud that move.

Lammaloo - i would need more to vote either of them I think, but it is deffo something to keep in mind going forward.


I feel like there has been great discussion - which is awesome! I defo want to reread the thread and take notes this time (doh!) While it is still relitively manageable.

But I still lack any decent vote subject today. Goodness I forgot how sucky Day 1 is. :(

Imma be real salty if Sloonie flips mafia and I didn’t leave my vote on him for the civ credit (I’ll still claim civ credit though dw)

Having said that I do agree he’s been very active with little thread presences and he’s joking a lot. But, that doesn’t read mafia to me yet

My "sig is obviously mafia" post at the start of this day was 100% unserious and a reference to a long-standing meme about sig always being the default easy-suspect option in every game that he plays. I have not had any suspicion against him at any point in this game.
