?
Basically this is correct from how the game was played last time I was in this setup.
2 mafia goons.
Faction abilities were KILL and BLOCK or PROTECT
This was my understanding from reading the setup link, but I guess I can see how somebody would be confused about what the mafia can and can't do here. Calling a misunderstanding a "slip" could be a mistake, though. Mafia can misread the setup too.

I see, you're asking what my thinking was when I voted you. Someone covered that. It was a weird thing to ask. If you would've asked why did I vote you, that would've been one thing, but what was my thinking when I voted you is an approach I can't grok. I think I may have been thinking of butterflies or cornbread at the time.
Ok, then I'm asking why did you vote for me? The offer of chocolate milk is appreciated but if I could get an answer to this that would be much preferred.
I thought it was coming from scum trying not to look like they're OMGUSing.

That's true, but this would be known from their role PMs so they should've been aware that they had both abilities. And even if they weren't at first, I think if scum LGW would probably have checked at some point whether the slip imaginality was accusing them of was actually a slip?
I don't buy that this is a consistent position. Post 53 you dismissed the slip but now it's meaningful enough that you think one of them is scum?

Ftr I no longer think one of them is scum seeing as I also misunderstood the set up.
Also, your argument that I'm scum because I'm inconsistent is incredibly weak because it assumes that town are more consistent than scum when I've experienced the inverse to be true. Also also, there is no inconsistency because I didn't dismiss anything. I want to say you're town for trying to place me but I feel like an innocent witness being lead by the defense into falsely incriminating myself, I'm not sure of your motive.

I was hoping for more interaction on my strategy post. Not gonna lie, I was kinda excited for people to say "go for it." But I guess that shows I'm a bad player since it was universally agreed to be bad.
I'm having a hard time gleaning reads from this game. I don't understand the LGW thing at all. And I voted Imaginality to stir something up, but nothing really changed. So I just feel like a spectator this game.
I will say that I have a town-lean read on Flea. Being the first to come out with a snap post of hot takes seems townish to me. Even though I have no idea if I agree with their assessment or not.
I hate Onion's shtick and if I were really out of ideas at the end of the day I would lim there just to not have to deal with a self-imposed restriction.
I like Pav's activity, it feels pretty genuine so slight town-read for that. But everyone seems to respect them for being a good player so I am wary of my own surface-level read.
If someone wants to make a succinct case and ask me direct questions I'm willing to engage but I feel trapped on the periphery right now.
/pity party over.
Was your strat post universally agreed to be bad? I don't think it was, I think it just focuses on maths too much in a game that is not really about math. (Incidentally I don't love focus on mech talk either.) But since you seem to be trying to engage, what's up with the imaginality vote? Was it just to spark something or do you actually find them scummy?
Do you think policy-limming onion is something we should consider today?
