Mafia round 93: hot potato! (game thread)

[bo_sox48]

I claim the couch potato

after some consideration, I have determined I will un-claim the couch potato
tangentially, however identifiable, some important scum always seem only fairly towny

You can be a couch potato all day and click refresh over and over again on the game thread without holding the couch potato you know

[BunnyGo]

Why

He spent time voting, and then actively didn't confuse the town on what the vote status was.

As opposed to what scum would do, which is hold the couch potato, not say a word, and draw attention to themselves and the remainder of whatever wagon they landed on when the votes were counted? Giving town points for doing something that he should be doing as either alignment is dumb.

and yet, nobody else has done it yet...

I would submit the other CP holders did it worse.

Whatever, I'll bite. Miminena has been consistently towny, saved the sweet potato instead of letting it die D1, and is part of the sweet potato chain twice. Generally has been flexible with reads instead of tunneling.

Exactly! They did. Thank you for proving my point. It's completely NAI, by your own logic. Brain claimed it early, and he's town. Kaka played out the majority of the day and claimed it loudly. What is your read on Kaka?

Here is brain, claiming the couch potato 23 hours before the day ends and without fanfare:

I was told that I have the couch potato and thus my vote is not going to count today I assume this should be helpful to avoiding potential ties.

Here is Kaka claiming the couch potato, 10 minutes before the day ends with colors and bold letters and very obvious intentions.

DISCLAIMER FOR CLARITY SAKE

I have the COUCH POTATO, that means my vote DOESN'T COUNT for today!


I disclaim this today rather than later, as I'm voting on one of the leading wagons, and I don't want to tie the vote.

I wanted to drag it out a bit so the wagons do run more naturally, but I think revealing this 10 minutes before EoD will help so we don't get a chaotic toss up that might lead to a tie.

Please keep this fact in mind while you are doing your votes, my vote is VOID (for today).

D&W. Has been town the whole game and hasn't changed much. If I have to convince you of that, you should reread the game.

Who is your top townread and top scumread, and why did I forget that you were even in this game?

Haven't read everything and I want to re-evaluate things I might not be able to effectively re-evaluate manually.

Anyways this is the best way forward I think in this position.

Bubble and squeak

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_and_squeak (see Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License)

Bubble and squeak is an English dish made from cooked potatoes and cabbage, mixed together and fried. The food writer Howard Hillman classes it as one of the "great peasant dishes of the world". The dish has been known since at least the 18th century, and in its early versions it contained cooked beef; by the mid-20th century the two vegetables had become the principal ingredients.

History

The name of the dish, according to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), alludes to the sounds made by the ingredients when being fried. The first recorded use of the name listed in the OED dates from 1762; The St James's Chronicle, recording the dishes served at a banquet, included "Bubble and Squeak, garnish'd with Eddowes Cow Bumbo, and Tongue". A correspondent in The Public Advertiser two years later reported making "a very hearty Meal on fried Beef and Cabbage; though I could not have touched it had my Wife recommended it to me under the fashionable Appellation of Bubble and Squeak". In 1791 another London paper recorded the quarterly meeting of the Bubble and Squeak Society at Smithfield.

The dish as it is made in modern times differs considerably from its first recorded versions, in which cooked beef was the main ingredient and potatoes did not feature. The earliest-known recipe is in Maria Rundell's A New System of Domestic Cookery, published in 1806. It consists wholly of cabbage and rare roast beef, seasoned and fried. This method is followed by William Kitchiner in his book Apicius Redivivus, or The Cook's Oracle (1817); in later editions he adds a couplet at the top of his recipe:

When 'midst the frying Pan in accents savage,
The Beef, so surly, quarrels with the Cabbage.

Mrs Beeton's recipe in her Book of Household Management (1861) similarly combines cooked beef with cabbage (and, in her recipe, onions) but no potato. An 1848 recipe from the US is similar, but adds chopped carrots. In all of these, the meat and vegetables are served next to each other, and not mixed together.

In 1872, a Lancashire newspaper offered a recipe for "delicious bubble and squeak", consisting of thinly-sliced beef fried with cabbage and carrot, but not potatoes, although by then they had been a major crop in Lancashire for decades. In the 1880s potatoes began to appear in recipes. In 1882 the "Household" column of The Manchester Times suggested:

Bubble and Squeak. – Mash four potatoes, chop a plateful of cold greens, season with a small saltspoonful of salt and the same of pepper; mix well together, and fry in dissolved dripping or butter (three ounces), stirring all the time. Cut about three-quarters of a pound of cold, boiled beef into neat, thin slices. Fry slightly over a slow fire six minutes. Put the vegetables round the dish and the meat in the centre. Serve very hot.

Potatoes featured in a recipe printed in a Yorkshire paper in 1892 but, as in earlier versions, the main ingredients were beef and cabbage.

I still don't have a potato by the way

[Chaqa]

I'm throwing my potato somewhere a little spicy

[bozotheclown]

As promised, I have two HPs.

That was not a great EOD, but it seems fairly likely that Kaka was saved so at least we can look into that.

I agree in part
But I think Bozo was the one that was saved the most, and was saved numerous times

finally
have you seen how many times that guy has accused me of not answering questions?
(as seen in my response to the latest iteration, I have definitely answered all of them)
either bozo is heavily coasting and not reading anything anyone says, or bozo is just scum

You can claim this over and over, but I have read everything you have posted and you still have not provided direct answers to the 2 simple questions that I asked.

Throwing mine at someone sussy who might not be unpaired with anyone in the game.

Is there a reason to not say who exactly beforehand?

I don't think it matters much.

Did you already claim to have a N3 HP?

damo said he was going to pass his 2 HPs to bo_sox. bo_sox, DiplomacyandWarfare, and Just should let us know who they passed their D3 HPs to.
