catherine shot first etc etc

Slam's defense of decoy yesterday is kinda making him look townier to me, if that makes sense? like, i dunno if scum would do something that sus (in my experience scum usually make a point to look as non-scummy as possible (which is why i'm [eyes emoji @ fen]))

i feel like this is like that weird borderline territory where its kind of dependent on how good we assume people are at mafia

[Yugikun]

ALSO ALSO i can totally envision scum lynching decoy (he was only a goon!) to get town points so iunno

I'm vaguely agreeing with this. As... feasible as it would be the rational part of my brain is telling me that it'd be major galaxy brain to bus your scumbuddy day one when you could've feasibly named any other inactive to policy lynch. I do certainly think there were scum on the decoy lynch (I think scum want to be seen on lynches in general, town or otherwise), but for better or worse I'm willing to trust Fenris for leading a charge on scum.

[Yugikun]

Meanwhile, I'm going to have to deal with the fact that I was wildly off base day one and also still alive. If anyone is willing to ask me questions (other than "provide a readlist on THE ENTIRE GAME" because i'm not really a player who does readlists) I will do my best to answer them and provide my thoughts on things.

[Fenris]

provide a readlist on everyone NOT in the game

Kermit makes a good point about decoy possibly being a mafia self sacrifice bus. If they were going to pick someone, they’d pick a goon. Given the pretty universal town reads on Jace given his actions yesterday the cleanliness of that first day sort of puts Town back at square one. It’d be a big brain play but I don’t put it past mafia if they have the right people on their side. Fenris’ non defense is a little sus too.

I’m not gonna FoS because it’s 3 AM and I don’t want to bbcode

this is me erasure

[Fenris]

i literally dunno what else yall want me to say. frankly im a little miffed that the starting discourse of the day is "boy howdy its suspicious that fen wanted to lynch scum, huh" but also its 3 AM and im cranky and will probably have smart things to say tomorrow

[Fenris]

ive never said anything smart in my whole life so probably not actually but yknow? yknow

[Zetsu]

FoS fen for claiming to be not smart when they’re clearly smart and lynching liars is a good idea according to my handy dandy mafia handbook

(Actual thoughts will be here tomorrow)

[Jace]

Thanks for not murdering me guys <3 just wanted to drop in and say I’ll be posting thoughts starting tonight (tomorrow night as it’s 3am) after work. Just so nobody gets suspicious again.

[Slam]

I’d make a joke here but we all know the time for jokes has passed.

Suspicion wise I’ll have to do a proper readthrough later today, but I would be looking towards people who hopped on the wagons third or fourth. That’s usually a good place for scummies to join in the fun.

I will point out that Decoy's wagon was very easy to join, so it's going to be a bit trickier to dig into it. I mean look at Paige's post: they say basically nothing and just go along with the stated reasoning, and in any other context it would look suspicious as hell, but we know for a fact that Paige was town. In future, Fen, please try to make lynches less easy to dogpile on so that we can get more information out of them, as was your stated goal. ((But we're still cool OOC :doubleguns:))

[Deamon]

umm

FoS: Fenris

Lynching someone for not posting much in day one with the justification of either pressuring inactives or just killing some for the sake of getting some info out of day one seems really reckless. The gusto with which Fen is leading the narrative while doing so makes me sideeye.

this was brought up by slam during the attempt to lynch decoy but was then quietly dropped when he got push back and people were clear they were on board with the strat. worth looking into? you decide? (yes)
