I would vote for Rdr as well.

I'm not sure I'm ready to vote for Bo, but he's in the PoE.

i'm worried about Dream as a deep-threat scum, but it's more paranoia than anything

If Yavu comes back he'll almost certainly vote for Chaqa, so Kakarroto it's up to you.

I would be down to vote Rdrivera. My main driver for Yavu over Chaqa/Rdrivera is it's easier to spot an active mafia than a lurking one, and Yavu has been especially scummy this phase in a way that feels like flailing mafia.
what would've been yavu's reason to vote Paste and forgo his vote on me then? I was securely in the lead, and his vote was quite important to my survival
Bunny and Bo were pretty clearly going to flip onto Control V, a smart mafia would see this coming and want to be in on the action.
yeah, but at that time it clearly didn't look that way, at least to me, and I was pretty sure I was the eventual vote. Yavu shook up the status quo with his vote and was a major factor to vote Paste out. Even when you're ready to bus you'd want a misvote here and don't lean that much out of the window, no?

well if you vote RD we would have three 2-wagons. That would give the ball to yavu though, so don't know if you would want that.

I would like Kak to choose between Chaqa and Yav.

But if needed I would break the tie.

That's a pretty bad idea. Unless you think scum team is me and Chaqa. Do you?

I feel strongly that Yavu is scum so I would not want that, or the chance of an "accidental" tie. I still suspect Rdr as I did last phase though. Any other takers? If so I'll join in.

I think this gives some town points to Yav and that's why I am voting Chaqa today even with Yav being really scummy today.

Longpost for EoD:
Idk if it was a good idea for me to play coy with the Sweet Potato’s whereabouts but it seems like no one went back and reread Bunny’s final post where he revealed where it was. Dip did not have it D4, Bunny did. Not sure why Dip wanted to fakeclaim but I’ll trust his judgment for now. Bunny most likely tossed it to Dip Night 4 (“the man with the ampersand.”)

I was kind of worried that my throw to Bunny looked suuuuper scummy to Bunny. What happened was I inputted Bozo as my first target and Bunny as a backup. I was not expecting Bozo to blow up or to flip Mafia. I was attempting to recreate what Bunny did by throwing it to Mimi and create a group of 3 out of which only one could be Mafia. Instead I threw it to the one person who would need it most at Night, making it look like I was trying to get Bunny killed.

Somehow Bunny either realized my mistake or thought I had some sort of amazing plan to keep the Sweet Potato in the game. Either way, he moved off me and even though our one townclear died we still have an important resource to use. The fact that Yavuzovic thought the Sweet Potato was gone feels scummy to me, I think scum was attempting to remove SP by killing Bunny. When the kill went through they assumed that Bunny’s HP potato exploded, but I highly doubt that’s what happened.

I think that is unlikely. I do think though that there is one mafia between you three, and after today, I think the likelyness of being that one is higher compared to the others.

Are we really letting Chaqa break the tie when he is one of the options?

I thought you were hinting this and I thought it was scummy, but then I realized thT it was before Bunny is cleared. And the Bozo explanation makes some sense, even with me not agreeing with this logic.

There is no tie, unless Yav vote less minute.

Okay, semantics. Are we really letting Chaqa decide whether or not he's going to die today personally instead of doing it ourselves?
