Swing is short for “swing them by their necks until dead”
The more I read the more I am certain that if we don’t say lynch, let’s cut this out, too.
Hmmm, I believe swinging the vote is a IRL phrase too. Or is the IRL phrase derived from the lynching concept as well? Interesting.
Swinging the vote means moving the vote from one place to another, which is a different concept.

Maybe you all are better writers than me but I don’t think I could come across that frustrated if it was all fake.
Who has accused you?
My comment was in response to you saying fox could have faked his scuffle with Balki using a day chat. And I was saying that if I were in fox’s shoes, it wouldn’t be able to fake the frustration coming across in his posts. So I don’t think day chat is a really reason to dismiss my town read of fox
Oh, I see.

Of course you could be correct.

But I think Fox being Mafia is much more likely. With little provocation, he whipped out this big unimportant case and Balki and Fox proceeded to bus the heck out of eachother, both earning town points with little risk of being flipped because of it.

I think it was authentic behavior. It seemed Fox truly does bear some sort of sad grudge. So I think it was easy for them to perform the convincing theater. There wasn't any risk of it looking fake, because it was real.

The sub enters the game. You swing the vote towards them, no?

I just think it makes sense in an inoffensive way, even if the original Webdip meaning was "offensive".

3?

Wait…what?
@sweet

Please explain. I’m very lost and struggling to keep up
The three roles so far are all fighter roles. The paladin is another type of role and I’m guessing it was a mistake in the category used.
More details please. What 3 roles. What actions. What uses? Who was? What conclusions suspicions and why?

I cannot emphasize how lost I am before I get to catch up in 3+ hours.

If Town did it, I assume they should claim?
Why?
Well, I suppose claim after night. Or if under wagon pressure? Because they are Townclear unless CC.
Again…you’ll have to walk me slowly through your reasoning because I think you’re just wrong here.

Flum made a similar comment, perhaps I meant to say Warrior but am too lazy to check which is correct.

We have a Vig who has Archer Power. Dip had the Duel Power. Battle Master power is also Paladin (or Warrior?)

So that makes three people under the same category.

This isn't actually important, just interesting.
Oh shit! They vigged damo?!

I just checked the most recent flip on the bot. Only knew D&W died too when I saw youse guys talking about it

From the word doc:

“Fighter Roles:0-3
Battle Master : Once per game you may enable that the top two wagons will both flip and be eliminated. This action is a day action. If you activate this it will not be announced, you must submit this action before the final 30 minutes of a day phase. If the day would end in a tie, both wagons would instead be eliminated. If there was a scenario where the second highest wagon was tied then it would go by the bot which wagon was to be flipped.
Eldritch Knight: once per game, choose another player, and the wagon must be you vs them. If you activate this it will be announced, you must submit this action before the final 30 minutes of a day phase.
Archery: 2 shot day vigilante, you have two shots this game. You may only shoot once per day phase. If you wish to shoot another player please submit the action to the GM. you must submit this action before the final 30 minutes of a day phase.”

It’s been pointed out that archery (probably a typo for archer) is the only role that could have killed damo. Dip used the eldritch knight role. Someone used the battle master role.

The categories are completely meaningless but are just there for some historical reason with how brain made the setup. It was honestly a super weird comment for sweets to make (odd he knew the setup well enough to know that they were the same grouping but didn’t get the category name right)

Due to some non-game reasons, I may need to restrict the time I’m playing for a bit. I’ll still be around not and then but will be posting a whole lot less. Sorry in advance.
