i mean dont read into any of my posts. without knowing what the stakes were i was just posting. there wasnt really any reasoning behind my votes. i could try to retroactively justify my posts and votes, but day 1 i voted someone for being a cat. day 2 it was just a random vote basically. on day 2 i felt particularly like there were no stakes since the people who got voted (me being one of them) didnt face any consequences. stating who we would have recruited is pointless because as scum we'd just lie. if anything i dont trust that scum doesnt benefit from this knowledge somehow.

We all have 3 animals submitted correct? If we get another restricted day it'll probably be with that third animal. It would be best to setup animal codewords with that animal noise ahead of time while we can speak.

I'll start, my third animal was fox

@ Drusilla / Isis

can you please explain why you wanted to put PlusJOYED as the 2nd condemnation?

I found this part of your play extremely scummy and I don't see the town-motivation behind it.

i'm gonna be real the initial thrill of like, getting someone to understand me during this game was the height of my enjoyment and after that i found myself like... not caring as much because i can only take so much of animal noises before i disengage some.

i'll reread to see if there was a reason i had my vote on you

I was blindly sheeping Drusilla.
if I picked on my own I think I would have leaned elsewhere but I decided my drusilla TR was my only substantive thing in the game and other people's tiebreakers didn't matter so much as that.

ok but what is the logic behind Pooky/PlusJoyed.

Do you think I would recruit PlusJoyed or do you think PlusJoyed would've recruited me? Either scenario IMO is a long shot since I've basically never played with him.

i can't remember if I voted plusjoyed before you but if I did it was an RVSy thing

I didn't know you were townreading me, why did you??
that's apparently not consensus.

because if you want to wifom the town you just pick who you are unlikely to pick

if you want to play with someone specifically as your partner you just pick that person.

I don't see it likely that you go to the trouble of random.orging the partner because you have some preference for what you want this game to be like and it's somewhat special and unique to be able to pick your partner.

it is very easy to look at other players games i have done so for everyone in this game and i've never played with many of you. do you think a mafia who had to choose their partner would not do so? i don't understand this.
