I originally voted INH and swapped to sprityo when G-Man said there was a tie.

Posted: **Fri Oct 19, 2018 10:13 am**

I picked sprityo. Don't really remember why, I guess I liked the way he was trying to organize things.

I voted sprit, he seemed to be in a good solvey mode that I wouldn’t expect out of scum right away.

Why particularly with this set-up?

Because there are no power roles meaning the only tools we have are in the thread, working together to suss out the assimilated. If someones NOT here doing that, they're weighing us down.

And if they happen to be bad and they miss a kill, we're not stuck wondering if a kill didn't go through because of an inactive or because of a friendly-fire scenario, which when THAT happens, dramatically shifts the game.

But Long Con isn't even playing this game?

Real talk tho: Speed's D0 campaigning strike me as exactly what civ Speed would do. He's my strongest read right now. All of my other opinions are clouded in ambiguity and he-said, she-said.

"I have a feeling we're gonna lynch speedchuck even though I don't wanna" Is a semi-defeatist cop-out type of a statement. What makes chuck the sensible candidate :P Mucho suspecto.

I think he thought I was going to get elected.

Also Eloh's information is wrong, as I pointed out. As quin said, might even be a town slip. Not so useful.

For the record I voted DDL when there were no posts in the game and then never changed it.

Why you guys gave the fire gun to the person with the least knowledge of game setup, I'll never know. (Is it because he's probably town? It might be because he's probably town.)

Posted: **Fri Oct 19, 2018 10:57 am**

Speed very well could be good trying to win the game, I guess I was thinking of some recent games where he wasn’t acting like that as town (Hydra and U-Pick) but Courage he did, so, nevermind that.

Please do define what 'acting like that' means

Posted: **Fri Oct 19, 2018 11:02 am**

Sprit and Eloh have both, to some degree, messed up information that scum probably would have. Plausible townslips. I'd rather not lynch either of them at this point.

I agree that killing inactives might be important because if we can't win anonymous elections during the day, we won't even have a 'lynch' to use.
Actually if we publicize our votes and stick together, it's not that different from a normal lynch.

I'd leave inactives, especially Macdougall, in the clear until tomorrow.

[mention]Elohcin[/mention] 1st game here, yep

[mention]Dragon D. Luffy[/mention] I picked Speedchuck, I liked his proposal the most compared to other candidates. If he's picked he would execute the one with the most vote. Seems good for D1, a bit boring maybe but better than picking some random dude with no clear proposal on how they would use the flamethrower

I mean I'm open to suggestions. I just really don't have a good idea of who to vote for on Day 1.

I don't know what this is. The whole game has been talking about this mechanic, and Sprityo has talked about how he'll handle the flamethrower.

I'll be the first to admit that I have no idea what your town game looks like, but what I've seen so far isn't great.

Also Eloh's information is not wrong. The kill does rotate between Assimilated so if it takes Ass #1 two nights after their original kill to get another kill in, then Ass #1 knows there are 2 more mafia in the game. Eloh was correct.

I already addressed the post. They won't know until day four at the earliest. If there are four scum, push that to like day 8 for some of them.
It's not factually wrong, but it demonstrates a misconception of the time involved. The game could literally be over before some of them know how many assimilated there are.

How about you sell us on some lynches? If you're intending on using the flamethrower in a democratic way (following the lynch poll), then this game shouldn't be any different of any other game where you would be trying to get the person you believe is bad lynched.
