Hello again! I am Kinu and I will be your auctioneer today!
I wasn't exactly planing on doing this this early, but since I DID state in the rules it would be 24 hours after daystart and didn't really account for extentions or clearify, we can do this now!
Anyhow, without delaying this any longer, here is the Mid Day Update!

PB, why is Bengule town? Also what was townreading Pine about?

THIS LAG IS DEBILITATING

SOMEONE MAKE IT STOP

Are you saying I should trust myself to accurately read you D1?

Idk what the creature in the daystart PM was called but it was cute and looked like Spike from FIM so it gets my seal of approval.

This is good question.

Bingle is scum until otherwise proven.

Pine is a tree.

I think every game we’ve played together your early reads have been right about me... but then you get into your own head when it comes to me

Bingle is town 'cause the first thing he did when he came here was setup spec and went for the correct town play which is proposing Titus as market owner. No matter if Titus is town or scum, it's the correct play from a hard setup spec player.

Pine is doing nothing, that's town indicative from him. Scum!Pine tries to at least look like he's doing something to get some thread presence for later.

Even though pretty much the first thing i did when entering the game was ask him to setup specc?

Uh...Bingle correctly speccing setup is not town indicative. It's Bingle, pal. He's required to be mechanically sound.

No. One thing is being correct as town and other thing is just being correct. Voting for Titus is being correct as town, it's not the same.

Sorry - I'm not buying it until he gives more.

That's ok I'm not that convinced either. There are people who are taking my stances too seriously when I'm more of a "let's see how they react to this shit" kind of fella.

Like OF COURSE I'm not townreading Pine for that bullshit.

But guess what, if I'm right, scum gets some pressure that town doesn't, so they act in a way that town won't, and it actually works.

Scum who know how to play against me just agree with me 'cause they know I'm full of it.

Highlighting the obvious question...

Why are we supposing voting for me is the mechanically superior option when I am weaker in earlier day phases and I haven't actually played with Bingle as far as I recall?

I may be putting my own thoughts in there but I think of you as a town leader so giving you the market owner just makes sense, you'd probably take the best of it and making you a universal townread is a must.

Bingle may not have played with you before but I'm sure he knows about you and how you play.

Titus v Alisae ended not long ago and I think that proves my point and being a recent event, I'd think "Titus is a good town leader" would be in the top of mind of mafia players right now.

PB, why would Bingle be aware of my play if we never played together?

I thought I already answered that; I'm calling you popular.

fwiw, i'm at least somewhat aware of titus's play despite us never having played together. also would support titus campaign if need be.

I’m amenable to Titus but would like Bingle to answer my question.

I'm Jingle. We've played off and on for about 6 years on site, although most of that is a long time ago. I split into a playing and modding account in order to keep things readable in my egos and bookmarks.

I feel good about PP in the PP PB interactions. I'd support a PP election as well.

I don't trust Mena to not be deepwolf and I think you're town, the decisions are simple, so competency isn't a concern, although you're good enough to see that we want the powerful roles distributed early.

And... lag is back. I'll try again later.

Why not Datisi, or an as-of-yet unnominated option, like Ginngie? Why do you not think you’d be a good market owner?

Nominating myself is going to be a tainted option. No one trusts me, so saying I should get the role of the person with the most trust is a losing proposition.

I've read barely any of the game so far, but if there's a solid towncase on Datisi or Ginngie that I can get behind I'd be down for that.

I specifically DON'T want Mena/Gobbles to be the market owner D1 because they're players I don't trust early townreads on. Actually, iirc Datisi might be in that category as well, although I'd have to check the rising star nom from last year because most of my Datisi knowledge is from reading those games. And a hydra game with Formerfish.

My goal with the election is to vote someone who is likely town. Past that, I straight don't give a shit because the only really important use of that role is to not pick things like Godfather and Ninja, and pretty much anyone with a brain and a pulse could reason that out. I picked Titus because she was the first (and only) ISO I chose and looked like town.
