With 9 players alive it takes 5 votes to lynch.

The deadline for Day 1 is in (expired on 2019-08-26 00:15:00).

Aa replaces x maya effective immediately.

@Hectic: Crown abilities are not random.

VOTE: Correspondence

On the grounds of inconsistency.

They still scumread egduf but don't scumread Hectic because their partner would have come to their defense to protect them. Which correspondence' scumread did. That's...not organic to me.

I'm over having to individually read Hydra heads.

Unfortunately that's not something you can be over (I get what pops is saying now)—if you consider that it's a hydra then that's not scummy for them, so voting them amounts to a sort of policy vote. Or am I wrong?

[RCEnigma]

It could be scummy or it could not be scummy. Same as every other person, what is your point?

The onus is on them to settle their reads. I'm not using two different sets of reads to form one opinion of one slot. I'm just not.

So yes I can be over it, I'm not advocating a lynch on correspondence because they're a hydra. Pops was using the fact to defend them. No policy involved.

But the inconsistency isn’t between hydra heads, it’s within one post from Henrietta.

I begin to suspect we were wrong with regard to Mr. Hectic. While he is certainly erratic and strange, the rush to condemnation seems overly hasty. I suspect that if he were part of some nefarious enterprise, his partner would rather protect him, and conversely the real criminals would be all too eager to use him as a scapegoat. Therefore, I believe he is guilty of little more than being a young man, prone to the eccentricities of callow youths and little more.

My greatest concern continues to be Miss Egduf. While I consider her most likely in league with Mister Drew, she continues to be suspicious of her own accord.

Fondest regards,
Henrietta

[Egduf]

Also, as far as I am aware, Correspondence has never explained their read on me despite mentioning it in multiple posts and being asked directly by Hectic.

[Aa]

Hello. Is it me you're looking for?

[Aa]

UNVOTE:

[Aa]

He promised to use the abilities in "the town's best interest" not "our best interest" (but he did use first person plural at the beginning of the post when he's not a hydra!?!?)

[Aa]

Sooo whoever got the crown can't hide and scum can't lie about who they voted for. That's good.

Only half of that is good

[Aa]

This leans town pops. I don't think she was as aggressive as scum.

[Aa]

Post 74 reeks. Very disingenuous reaction to a self-imposed post restriction. No actual town frustration with having an "unreadable" slot, or policy Lynch stance, or constructive words of any kind, just "don't lynch me when I refuse to play 12.5% of my mafia this game, thanks in advance".

I don't follow

[Aa]

I don't like X Maya's vote on Dunn.

It reads like an RVS vote to me, does it not to you?

[Aa]

popsofctown - Slightly Mafia
They seem overly agressive, and willing to jump on any reason to scum read people. Someone mentioned this could just be a difference in playstyle, but in my (small) expiriance people who play like this are normally scum.

I would bet that the people you played with are the exception rather than the rule.

Most people play equally aggressively as both alignments but the ones who don't are generally more aggressive as town. Being overly conciliatory is more often a scum trait.

[Aa]

I'm confused about whether the crown should go to a scumread or a townread, now. Since crown ownership will be public and the scum can just NK whoever got the crown. Are crown abilities going to be like sane cop to punish us for giving the crown to a townread, or will it be publishing cop and 1-shot BP and roleblocker to reward us for giving the crown to a townread?

Compromise. Give it to a nullread. Someone who you wouldn't lynch but who also probably wouldn't die.

[Aa]

I want to crown Dunnstral.
That way we don't crown scum.
Then he gets shot and we don't lose someone with good reads

Oof.

[Aa]

I like Hectic. This is not alignment indicative.

[Aa]

I suspect that if he were part of some nefarious enterprise, his partner would rather protect him

[Aa]

Oh Hectic feels towny now.

[popsofctown]

[Voting is plurality based, which means it will go to the person with the most number of votes. Tie breakers will be determined by whose name comes first in the alphabet.

Hello. Is it me you're looking for?

[Aa]

You're welcome to create the alt Aaa, if you so desire

(In fact, I think you could actually beat me by going A a, now that I think about it.)

[Aa]

Also playing in a game with Aa and A a would be downright aamazing

[popsofctown]

I am going to throw some chairs

[popsofctown]

the alphabet rule was a bad rule
Random would be best
Join date would be better

Oversoul you specified the alphabet would break ties but you didn't say whether being earlier in the alphabet causes you to win the tie or lose it wink wink nudge nudge

[popsofctown]

They still scumread egduf but don't scumread Hectic because their partner would have come to their defense to protect them. Which correspondence' scumread did. That's...not organic to me.

I don't understand this post still which seems to be the crux of your argument.

By the way pick one:

-it doesn't make sense to interpret Correspondence's post as though Correspondence is trying to determine who Correspondence's partner is
or
- you're lazily using "they" instead of egduf's or Hectic's singular pronoun and it makes your post harder to read.

[popsofctown]

I want to crown Dunnstral.
That way we don't crown scum.
Then he gets shot and we don't lose someone with good reads

Oof.

This is the set of reads he's expressed this game, not his ability to read people in general, as a career, for the record. I'm not rude like that.
