you know what could be funny, if Korina's bad "well Cape, you are just POE" push actually came from me and them being w/w

I think Cape should at least have a chance to read the thread first. I extended the same courtesy to both StrangeMatter and yourself.
I’d rather at least be up front that I think the slot is scum, so that might usher some hasty reads from scum, which can be picked up on for lies, or getting a townie to actually town in the slot
Oh and on the subject of interactions I have had with Korina, check this out :D

Due to ongoing legibility issues, I request that going forward, players not use color tags in their posts in this game, unless they first check the legibility on all of the MS templates.

Vote Count 3-2

The plot element that set Date With The Angels apart from other sitcoms, was Vickie Angel's daydream sequences. The show's sponsor, the Plymouth car company demanded that the fantasy sequences be done away with, because they felt that fantasy doesn't connect with home audiences. Imagine that.


Not Voting
(5): Somnus, MalcolmTucker, Cape90, ProgoWoshua, Ahri


With 5 alive, it takes 3 to eliminate.



Deadline: February 8, Noon US Eastern Time.

Countdown: (expired on 2022-02-08 09:00:00)

Getting the impression Ahri has basically stopped playing and doesn't have a proper stance, just picking Progo because why not. Complicates things for the town a bit.

Why me?
bc ur maf

and im in too many games so this one needs to finish so I can play more
I know you've more or less checked out of this game, unfortunately, but I'm hoping you can at least provide details on your stance here.
Getting the impression Ahri has basically stopped playing and doesn't have a proper stance, just picking Progo because why not. Complicates things for the town a bit.
Either way, Progo
should
do something more today then what they have done
You're right, I should do something.

How about this?

VOTE: ProgoWoshua, I'm in E-1 now.

Me. I'm the most suspicious person here.

I mean, I barely had any meaningful interactions with Korina's slot, which is what I expect from a newbie scum.

After that, I voted for Korina when they were being suspected more than me. This looks like clear cut bussing, don't you think?

After reading everyone's ISOs, I decided that I'm the most likely scum partner for Korina.

Okay, I can't do this.

UNVOTE: ProgoWoshua

I wanted to make a crazy play to draw a careless hammer. But keeping up the facade for two posts was genuinely painful.

In all honest tho, today's vote should be between me and Ahri. If we're both alive at ELo, she's voting me for sure.

VOTE: Ahri

If the game continues after that, I'm leaning towards scum Malcolm, but I'll probably reassess depending on who votes who and who gets night killed.

Ok. For starters...can people stop proposing these ridiculous 1v1 gladiator battles? This is a team game. If I agreed to this nonsense, which I don't, you'd easily get my vote right now, Progo, just based on today.

Ahri has been convinced you scum-slipped on Day One. I'm not, but it's something that has loomed over your head since post 436. Lickety planned on tunneling you hard Day 2 and he ends up dead Night One. Ok, there's a lot of reasons he could have been the night kill though. They certainly don't all involve you. He also wanted to push hard on Malcolm and Korina after you.

I hate that Ahri has basically given up on this game since early in Day 2. I really wish I read her as scum because it would be a pretty easy vote on Day 3. Unless she set up a bussing situation with Korina starting late Day 1 and then decided to coast to a quiet victory the rest of the way, I don't think she's scum. If we see a Day 4 and she and I are both somehow still around, I'll reassess my stance here, as I've done at the start of both Day 2 and Day 3.

With that said...no one should EVER read someone voting for themselves and then open-claiming mafia as pro-town. And then you changed your mind roughly an hour later (regret for throwing the game?). I hated when Ahri self-voted on Day 1 and thought it was a bad play, but I at least understood the situation she was setting up. I disagreed with it, and still do, but I at least understood her reasoning. Anyone who sees that play that you made here and says, "Wow! Such town!" will look arguably scummier than you.

This isn't personal. I like you as a person and you seem like a good dude. I don't know how you survive Day 3 with those posts though. And I say that for a few reasons. We went into Day 3 with two shots to lim the remaining scum. Despite not having any power roles left, that's not too bad. Let's say you somehow now survive Day 3 and we do in fact end up in a Day 4. Out of myself, Malcolm, Ahri, and Cape, 2 of those 4 are going to be in a vote with you still around and the insanity/open-mafia claim you just did is going to weigh in on the decision, rather than looking at everything else.

Here's the Outcomes I see:

1. If you're scum and you did this, I feel bad for Korina, and it's going to feel somewhat hollow if this is how we win. I'd still take it, but it'll feel kind of cheap.

2. You're town, and you go into a 2:1 on Day 4 (what mafia in their right mind is going to night kill you now?) with what you just did weighing heavily on the decision and potentially costing town the game.

3. You're scum and somehow coast to an easy scum victory now because people were insane enough to read what you pulled here and go, "Wow! What a townie move! Definitely not scum!". This one seems the least likely, as I doubt anyone is giving you townie points for any of this.

4. You're town and get voted off Day 3 for putting yourself at E-1 and open-claiming mafia after someone put a single vote on you with their entire argument literally being, "bc ur maf".


All four scenarios suck, with the first one sucking the least. In addition to all of that, with this post:

"I just picked one at random. But if you insists" (1145), I'd be concerned with you casting the game-deciding vote if we see a Day 4.

If you're scum, Korina is likely going to have a bone to pick with you post-game. If you're town and you helped give the game to scum by doing this, myself and 5 other people are going to have a bone to pick with you post-game. Even if you somehow flip town, I can't say I would have blamed Cape for quick-hammering you there. Same goes to Malcolm if he had been around during that. If ever there was a reason to quick-hammer someone, I'd say open-claiming mafia is right up there near the top of the list.

Again, you seem like a good dude and regardless of your alignment, I hope this isn't you basically quitting the game and mafia in general and then having regrets shortly thereafter. But to me, for all of the reasons I just outlined, I don't see how you can survive Day 3 here.

I'd like Ahri, Cape, and Malcolm to weigh in before I vote.

so instead of finding mafia

you'd rather just OMGUS

xD

tbf the original reason I voted you was because I cleared Somnus and I wanted a Cape / Ahri / Malcolm endgame more than any other two players - feels like higher winrate

but after rereading SM and Cape I really dislike them being w/w with Korina

and Somnus / Cape are good enough to see that my interactions with Korina are never w/w

so idm limming you two b2b and idrc which one goes first
