i was wondering if you were reading one of mine but no, that doesn't sound much like any of mine

they're supposed to be predictable, the market demands a happy ending with no cheating


fuckin romance readers are *merciless* in reviewing romance books without a happy ending.

I’m amazed that you’re surprised at this when your reaction to mine and others displeasure at the fact that you’ve decided to completely strongarm the game was “lol keep crying”

Like I said, the matter was forced. This is probably the best play for Day 1 right now. There will be no changing this.


Day 2 will be another matter entirely, and all of town will be needed to sort the information we have.
I think a 2-lynch option in which I may or may not veto sounds good.

Even the investigation pool we can do something like that.
But right now, this is set in stone and I'm sorry for that.

As for the why's and why not's, I really don't see why I should be explaining anything to anyone right now.

how the fuck have i decided on anything like that

Like I explicitly said it was bullshit when NK tried to do that, offered a reasonable compromise (2 wagons, PA picks) and now you’ve decided— not been forced, to be clear — actively decided to do that anyway despite there not being anything like consensus on maki as a guillo target

I mean, I don’t even hate the idea of doing maki today, I’m not TRing her from play, but literally I have no interest in playing mafia when my vote, the one tool given to me, counts for absolutely nothing because we’re just gonna be forced to kill whoever you want

This was not purely iconeum's decision but one necessitated by the circumstances. I would've appreciated it if you hadn't just tossed out of spite.

(really sorry to have to play like this, i tried my best not having to out but here we are)
Sorry, are you trying to say this isn’t you completely strong arming the game?

Because generally, when I’m the IC who knows the identity of the game losing role, if I tell everyone “this is what we’re doing” I’d probably say I’m strongarming the gsme

i've agreed that this will be the play from day 2 onwards (consensus on wagons and PA picks), however i think it's much better to do this on Day 1 and follow that plan from there onwards

It was exactly, entirely, and uniquely icon’s decision to dictate who the investigation pool would be and who the guillo would be today

Maybe it’s a wonderful choice and maki will flip scum and the pool will have tea and we’ll execute NK tomorrow and have a glorious win and ride off into the sunset, but it’s barely mafia and it’s certainly not mafia that I will have any fun playing and I think it makes it barely Mafia at all
