You probably shouldnt be too concerned with where im voting. My vote does nothing. At end of day my vote will not be on anything consequential because it would just cause confusion in the counts.

The alternative is to keep tossing potatoes at him.
That would also force him to make decisions even if he does not die.

Oh yes you have the Couch Potato don't you.
Thanks for the reminder.

Your vote still matters as a lasting indication of your suspicions, however.

I disagree. We will know he had couch potato. We will inspect his reads not his votes on D2. I support brain and all future couch potatoes to vote nokill

His scumreads and his votes ought to align.
His votes will be easy to track via the Bot.

Yavuz crawled into the back of the Ambulance rummaging through bags. Sadie gasped, “Yavuz, get out of there!”. She ran to grab his arm and he held up a passcode badge and smiled. “We have to get in that ER, one of us does. He held out a hangar with an EMT uniform and a badge that said Magdalena. “Here you go Magda!” He smiled.
Sadie looked around to see if anyone was paying attention and slid into the ambulance, crouching beside Yavuz. She carefully closed the rear doors and smiled for the first time in days. “Once I get in the ER what am I doing?” She asked.

Yavuz shook his head. “I didnt have a plan, just figured we need to get in there”.

Sadie tied her hair back and looked for a bag of blood. “Okay Yavuz, you hurt yourself okay?”
Yavuz nodded, unsure of what Sadie was doing.
She cut the bag open and carefully coated her scrubs where the name was visible and yavuz’s arm in blood.
“You hurt yourself” she stared into his eyes.
“I hurt myself” he repeated.
She opened the Ambulance doors and carried Yavuz into the hospital, hurrying to the ER doors brushing aside a line of people waiting to be admitted. Blood all over Sadie and Yavuz.

Why
Dream is pretty similar to last game, I don't see any abnormalities or maliciousness from him. A bit more silent, like maybe on 90 or 95% of the settings, but with the same parameter.

I also don't see any agenda or the like from mimi, and how the wagon formed I don't think mafia would gain that traction. Sure a little nervousness at the beginning, but that's probably because of the potato miim had
Disagree on Dream. His posts this game are alot more concerned with how they appear. I read him as awkwardly different and more worried about who is pushing him. Seems less involved in giving reads

Disagree on mimi, their agenda is self evident in that the scummy thing about them is their posts are tonally defunct and lack any energy. Even their most decent damo push just looks rather pitifully conceived of. Im not impressed w their first 20 pages and Im really surprised you are
well, I could be wrong. It's not like I know their alignments. But I think you are overinterpreting their stuff here, and I don't know if it's just the normal theory crafting you do, or just tone-deaf mafia subbing in. Probably the former from what my gut says, even when I haven't had the best feeling on worcejs performance.

Wow its almost like I’m not mafia :razz:
then prove it and throw one potato to a mafia

I do think though your townreads are quite fine. A bit different ordered, like dip higher and mimi lower, but I agree with them mostly. Hmm probably switch RD with Bunny.

Well lets see
They’re not ordered within tiers if thats what you’re asking

And yeah, I’m trying a different method of solving by just towning people and killing the rest. I tried to do this a few games ago but got D2ed or something i forgot
hmm, I see

I usually can't get around to just towning and have (at least a rough) ranking list. But good to know, if you're telling the truth. If you flip mafia, would be nice to confirm or deny that statement, after the game

Unpopular opinion but Civ 6 is fun. Its not the same gameplay loop as 5 but saying its unfun is not true
oh I like civ 6 too, quite a bit. Even when it doesn't have Austria in it (dang Portugal stole that last slot, I think, in the last pass)

but I would totally play an MP game in civ 6

Lets dooooo

##VOTE CONTROL

Wanna see this mf do some more
hmm I kinda like that too

##vote Control V
Why?

This looks like a super lazy vote.
'Paste' is in my PoE, haven't seen much and what I've seen I haven't particularly liked. Felt at the time, too, that the game was in a kind of fluid vote state, if I remember correctly, where people threw their votes around, and wanted to see if Paste gains traction. Which didn't happen, which made me more suspicious, but I also was the only vote, so something to note for the future

Control V’s biggest impact on the game has been scumreading me. The wagon against CV feels a bit forced, especially with Red Neurax saying CV is sus and then dipping. It feels like at least one of the people scumreading or voting for Control V is trying to get me to join the wagon on a misguided townie.
hmm, how sure are you we have another Antonius?

should Cicero follow Metellus Cimber, this time around?

guess I should as I'm the writer of The Willippics

##vote JustAGuyNamedWill
Kak were you not just agreeing with my towncore?

This vote is the most sus of my voters
just because we see the same people as town doesn't mean we're both town. Heck, it could very well be that a mafia has slipped into the towncore and their maf partner follows the consensus.

I also like the company I'm with on your wagon, so that's looking very good. I do feel, however, that with the votecount suddenly so stagnant, and you leading that much over everyone else, that mafia is very pleased right now. So I guess that's a big point for you being town. Hmm. Well, let me catch up

##VOTE KAK

@Kak explain your vote and reconcile your case with your agreement with my towncore
agreeing on a towncore doesn't mean we share the same alignment, that's just too easy to fake as mafia

and you are in my PoE, just look back at what I've said earlier. Especially with last game, I've seen what you can do as mafia, and I only was sure, because of the Dream-Bunny impossible (or at least highly improbable) connection. In terms of behaviour, you were very close of me townreading you, just due to process of elimination of all other options, so called occams razor, you were revealed as mafia to me. Well didn't help us since Dream just didn't believe I was town there, but yeah. That's just an experience I'll never forget, and I'll probably never clear you as town ever from now on just because of your behaviour.

You are just too smart as mafia, so as long as I don't have definite proof, or at least very reasonable proof from game mechanics or an extremely good vote behaviour that caught mafia or something from you, I'll never have you even near the town core.

But as I said, the vote count from before looked like mafia is content with voting you out, so I'll catch up and reconsider.
