btw, here's the final votes from yesterday if anyone isn't already keeping track at home:

kingkitty (9)
CornBurrito
Sorian
cabot
Never Forever
Burbeting
El Topo
bananaspaceprincess
Fireblend
*Splinter

SalvaPot (2)
Hyperactivity
Kalor

Sorian (2)
Palmer_v1
nin1000

DID NOT VOTE
SalvaPot
Lone_Prodigy
kingkitty

...I think

Alright, here's my crazy logic for the day. Some scum likely voted for KK. Some Scum would have avoided him to avoid association with other scum. Would the Scum have simply not voted? Doubtful, considering how much we harped on it, and the fact that they would have gotten pressure from their own chat as well.

So if we go with the smaller pool of players, we had 4 votes NOT on KK. Nin and myself voted for Sorian. Hyper and Kalor voted for Salva. I know that I'm not Mafia, and I'm pretty certain that Nin isn't, thanks to Cabot. So for now, I'm going to vote for either Hyper or Kalor. I'll switch with Kalor initially, because I still worry about him from D1.

Vote: Kalor

Cabot, if you agree with this in general, post a corgi meme. Everyone else, get your votes in somewhere, please. It's irritating to see 3 people didn't vote yesterday.

Sorry to see Sorian, Burbeting and also KingKitty go. It weakens us but let's look forward.

Can we somehow find out what happened to Cabot?

I'm mean Cabot, if we ask you questions can you answer in memes?

Start as you mean to go on I guess

Serious note: has Cabbeh been silenced, only posting gifs I think. I know myself I love me some gifs, but he literally hasn't said a word. I think. Right?

This is a good catch, I find this power hilarious, to be honest. Only speaking in memes and gifs.

I'll go ahead and

VOTE: Lone_Prodigy

if anything just to pressure him into providing some thoughts. Man, it's so frustrating to see the player I was bugging the most yesterday leave the game and have his role replaced by someone else entirely. Was Launch just being Launch? Give me something L_P, I've lost my purpose in life :(

Also keeping an eye on BSP, as said previously.

Your plan makes sense though you're going after the wrong person. We should look at the order of votes on Kingkitty and see where the bandwagon begins. I assume it is after their roleclaim but I don't remember.

So that I have a vote on someone I'll put it on Hyper for now.

Vote: Hyperactivity

yeah sry I put the votes down based on the order of player names in the spreadsheet, I'll have to look back to see what order the votes were actually placed in

NF's list should make it evident but when I voted I was pretty sure KK had pretty much given up and was mid-meltdown, throwing shit at the wall to see what stuck. To be fair he had a pretty unbelievable role :( I had already removed my vote on him (which he'd had for most of the day) because he threatened to role claim, but who could have believed the RNG and command madness he was claiming to have?

I dunno what to think about BSP's hammer though. I guess she could say the same thing I just said to clear herself, plus the day was ending with a Kitty lynch anyway so if she was scum what reason was there to expose herself by being the hammer?
 
Also keeping an eye on BSP, as said previously.

I guess you do what you have to do ^^

Yesterday you voted for me bc I'm "the least helpful poster". That sure was true and well I am the last one to blame things on being new but I might be a little slower with reading, thinking and writing down my thoughts. Actually it happened a couple of times yesterday that I was making a post and by the time I was done at least 6 people already talked about the same things.
That was rather exhausting to be honest
That's also why it might have sounded as if I was only "echoing what others said."

I did recognize that you quickly switched your vote yesterday when the wind was blowing in KingKittys direction. But since all day we were looking for a reason to lynch someone I won't blame you for that decision. After all, that's what most of us did.

As you mentioned it is not D1 anymore and I do feel a little more comfortable in the game now. So I will try my best to increase the number of reasonable posts
but don't expect me to pull a Sorian

Feel free to keep an eye on me but don't forget to keep the other one open to find real scum!!

So, what does the whole eight not nine votes mean? It's a bit late over here and I've been working all day, but is that an honest mistake or is he trying to tell us that someone who voted for kingkitty, may he burn in hell, does not actually have a vote?

Finally something you've said makes sense to me.

I looked at the non voters anyway:
L_P: Joined super late, fair enough
Kitty: Dead, who cares (sorry Kitty)
Salva: was initially suspicious, then remembered he did the same inDR. Think he claimed to never vote D1. Not very helpful but it's consistent I guess.

So Nin/Palmer/Hyper/Kalor.
Nin I trust for now, more than Cabot even. Any of the other three I could probably go for. Closer look needed (should be obvious, but as a continuation from yesterday Palmer remains my top suspect. Yeah, I used bold, thats how serious I am)

My fellow GOP's -- tonight, I want to speak to you about what the United States will do with our friends and allies to degrade and ultimately destroy the terrorist group known as The Electorate

Our objective is clear: we will degrade, and ultimately destroy The Electorate through a comprehensive and sustained counter-terrorism strategy.

I'm assuming Ouro miscounted. Can someone more tryhard go back and double check? Thanks x

Also sorry to argue against the main talking point but kitty's claim was suuper ridiculous. Sure it turned out to be true but I don't remember ANYONE posting in his support. So who voted when actually feels a little like misdirection to me.

Sure the way he claimed was one of the worst i have ever seen but going after those that voted for him still seems like a good way to start the day. I agree on the bolded part though since it did not really matter that much, no one believed him either way. Still, going after those WHO voted for him seems reasonable.

Mr. President, I'm more than willing to engage with you on bilateral dialog in order to establish my identity as the strongly american, patriotic fellow that I am. Trust me when I say I lament the loss of these fine GOP members we've witness today as much as you do, bless their souls, and stand besides you in your fight against the electorate scum.

I can agree to this plan. It gives us a list to work with, even if I think that list is a little bigger than you accounted for

That gives us these players:
SalvaPot
Palmer
Hyperactivity
Nin1000
Lone_Prodigy
Kalor

We immediately eliminate nin1000

Between the remaining players, I take issue with salva, who didn't say much of anything yesterday. However, if we want to go after the scum owe player, I want to go after lone_prodigy

The main reason has to do with something I noticed and talked about when I was going after salva yesterday

(Because I can't figure out how to quote myself in mobile)

Hyperactivity said:
So far, all that's happened in regards to you was other people pointing out the same thing I did and launch going "nah man it's salva I know he's a good poster". There wasn't anything else on you till now

I can get the specific quotes when I get back to a computer
 
I did not want to lynch KK after his first RC because of the same reasons I was against lynching nin and Cabot. I was and still am against lynching people who are almost cleared townies but his additional claim was just too weird.
As I already said we were all waiting for something like this to happen. KingKitty unfortunately gave us the justification for our D1 lynch. :/

Also, I did not plan on being the hammer!! Honestly wasn't even thinking about majority because I thought the day will be over soon anyway. But we only had about 10 minutes left so I don't think it would have made any difference.
 
Am on mobile. Been car shopping all day. Will probably be off mobile in like 2 hours or 3 hours. Will post then. But if I understand, 2 people died and cabbit was silenced?

Over the past hour a lesser-known national security aide got the boot for a series of snarky errors.

Really not feeling the fireblebd being scum thing. Yeah he voted for KK after the cop role claim but multiple people who already had votes on him were like "lol yeah right 50% rng in an ouro game gtfo".

That could just as easily be misled town.

Okay, a few things and please keep in mind it's late over here and I've spent the last six hours (unsuccessfully) trying to fix an error in some stupid mathematical example, so my mind is not exactly working very well right now and the questions might seem stupid or weird:

1)I've been meaning to ask this from the very beginning, but feared I'd get mocked. I'm a bit slow, but... who exactly is our enemy in this game? I get that the thread says Electorate, but...what exactly does that mean in this context? I assume this is referring to the electoral college that elects the president and vice-president? What could an actual mafia role look like? Given the roles we've seen so far...is there actually a mafia or is this just one long game where we kill each other and at the end two Republicans are left? How exactly can they even kill us (flavorwise)?

2)We had two deaths this night, which I assume means that there is a serial killer role. Which role could that be? If we assume a neutral player is out there, which person could it be? That is assuming Ouro didn't go all out and add Robin Hood again. He could, I don't trust him anymore.

3)Let us assume that cabot is telling the truth about his ability, i.e. he can tell the alignment of whoever is leading the polls. This requires that a player is leading in the polls, as otherwise he'd just have used his ability immediately on the first day and we'd all be busy shooting The Electorate. I haven't looked at the votes, maybe someone could do this, but I assume Nin1000 was one vote ahead of cabot when the latter used his ability? That would imply that whoever has no vote didn't vote for Nin1000, no? Unless it is not factored into everything and/or more players (e.g. all of electorate) cannot vote.

4)There's a bit more, e.g. I don't quite get all the voting behaviour from yesterday, but that might just be because it's late and I haven't had the time to properly process stuff. Maybe I'll come up with a theory tomorrow.

Yeah, sorry for the long, dumb post full of questions.

True but he has only one vote on him so no harm done on that , why would you on the other hand try to defend him just after having one vote on him ?

Also enough with the fluff and pointless brabbling. You should've gotten that out of your system on the first day. We have a job: We have to make America great again.

Topo, for point 3, Ouro has confirmed it was an honest mistake (I think? It wasn't in highlight tags but I'd like to believe we can trust Ouro)

Interesting point of view, totally forgot that scum could have been hiding there aswell.
We should probably look a bit deeper into that

Yeah, sorry for the long, dumb post full of questions.
That was not dumb, questioning everything and everyone is an integral part of playing mafia so thank you for making those questions

He has 2 I thought. Which incidentally is the number it took to get a bandwagon on KK rolling. Plus i would rather speak now when he isn't in danger than speak later when it might be too late to change the flow of the votes.
 
This is a weird situation. Replacing someone means I'm responsible for what they said before. To be honest I didn't look too much at Launch's old posts because I know his/my role. I'll wait for Hyperactivity to elaborate on his vote, but I can't exactly tell him what Launchpad was thinking when he posted before.

I'm curious about Burb's death. If we assume Sorian was the scum target (since Palmer seemed to hint that he had a PR?) then Burb was either a bad vig hit or a neutral/SK one. If it's the latter, it may have been someone who didn't like how Burb suspected them.

Burbeting has notes on BSP, Hyperactivity, and kitty. El Topo votes for him and he responds. He also got votes from cabot and Sorian.

I'm really "not feeling" you defending me. It's only one vote. If you're trying to score some easy points with me it's not going to work. I actually find it quite odd.
