Interesting that the Agentt wagon shrank to 1.
It shrank to zero until a moment ago!

Imp, I think the problem is that it's trained on data from the internet and the average scumhunting theory its picked up is just wrong. It was quite good about reporting the sequence of events if you tell it that. There might be a use case here, but I'm going to stay using my own brain for now.

Please vote. You know how suspicious I get of nonvoters. Don't complain on D2 if I have to waste a night action on you.

Right now, Crystal and me are happy to move back to Agent. The Toony wagon might collapse but you could prop it up. You could make the Sal wagon take off. Or you could ensure no one else ties the game with magma. You've got about five minutes.

I've voted twice this game so far.  Most days I vote once only and never change my vote.

I know you believe the below:

vote swaps = high scum equity.   50%
The opposite is true. The more votes, the less scummy a person usually is.

Crystal   Bailed from Agentt wagon to Toony — very suspicious.   30%
If Agent T is scum, then yes. Otherwise null.

Imp   Scattered votes, now off-wagon — shady and non-committal.   25%
Being off-wagon mid-day is fine.

Magma   Stuck on Toony, no switches — could be protecting Agentt.   20%
Picking a vote and sticking with it is much scummier than swapping it around.

AnimePigeon   No vote at all — passive lurking is a scum red flag.   20%
True.

Toony   Normal switches, no excessive survivalism. Could be town.   10%
I wonder why it felt your switches were normal and Agent's were scummy.

NQT   Committed Agentt vote — likely town.   5%

Jim   Same as NQT — consistent.   5%
If Agent flips scum, then yes. But otherwise this is pretty null.

Sal   Only voted Agentt. Might be town or a very gutsy partner. 10%
Only one vote is mildly scum-sided.

ChatGPT has convinced me that we need to pressure Anime Pigeon some more.

Will get back to explaining my thoughts on Agent & Salvator Contradicting themselves (from my pov) shortly.
I'd be very interested in seeing that.

But really.  It's rare for me to switch my vote without reason.  And common for me to only vote when I want something, typically someone dead, rarely someone pressured.

I'm off my most typical vote patterns this game.  NAI/I'm still town.

But bristly and forgiving you, but you literally can't push me into doing anything, including voting, before I'm ready.

I'm really snarly and stuff like that is why, out of game.  Consider me immobile and toxic, but trying not to be mean.  I'm really, really really really evil and reasonably lawful right now.

And will probably have a vote before end of day, yes.

Based on what Sal has said, he should only be voting me or Jim - yet he isn't.
I cannot fathom how you can possibly think this.
Just a thought, instead of being perplexed as to why I don't view you as Good/Townie, you could always try to post something more than being confused.

Literally all I'm asking, is prove you are Good, do some hunting, do some crafting & theorising, I'm seeing nothing from you. If your Good, I want to find you, but sadly others are interacting & performing better atm.

If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong - I can accept being wrong, but you haven't done anything to make me doubt you are Evil.

Sure.

Crystalizedmire

Why?

You're rude and probably worse to push.

Now, back to what I was doing, which is both more interesting and meaningful and useful to me.

The heck else is going on in this game...

ToonyMan's voters have thrown their votes on ToonyMan and just kind of sat there. Magma Mater is still engaged with the game at least, but CM and Agent T have been comparatively quiet.
The thing is that I have very little to add to the conversation. I think that AP is probably town and is being genuine in suspecting Sal.
This was like 10 hrs ago, I would hope to see more from Agent.
Honestly, the smart move might just be to rush vote Agent before the EOD.
Agentt
I'm agreeing to vote Agentt because they're one of the players I suspect. I honestly don't think that Magma is scum but I also don't want a tie and an Agentt compromise might be for the best.

I don't think that Agentt is mafia. I would rather lynch Salvatore Monday, honestly, but ToonyMan is still my preferred lynch.
Agreed.

I'm not switching to Agent.

Time for me to drift off, my eyes are gone!

Magma, tell me more?

I note some stuff about Toons too.  Have you clearly explained your ideas?  I will find soon if so, if not, please do.

Don't misunderstand. I'm not perplexed. Perhaps staggered.

Nevertheless, you are not the boss of me.

Hm hm hm. I was going to vote AgentT, saying that the simplest answer is probably the best, but I'm very comfortable voting out CrystalizedMire here.

Sal can act like anything as either alignment, and often does.

He  can act exactly like you when you're evil, and be good.  And useful later.  He doesn't signal as anything but Sal as a rule.

Finally got that sweet four-way tie. What wonderful balance.

Who is going to break it?

Agentt maybe marginally better idea than Sal. Agentt floundered, refused to make a case, made a survival vote (fair) and went to bed.

Still... something in me isn't 100% on that. It's the logical move for today. But is it the right one?

This breaks nothing. But it's interesting.

Day 1 - General Vibes/Feels

* Notquitethere - Seems to be showing some Genuine Hunting, Very Clear Townie or Sublime Sneaky Evil!

* Crystalizedmire - Seems to be on a similar vibe to me regarding Salvatore

* ToonyMan - Sounding Good, but definitely got some views that differentiate from me. They think Salvatore is good, but given Salvatore hasn't made many posts or much impact, I can see ToonyMan believing what he's preaching.

* Imp - Solid Performance so far, trickery customer, that can easily weasel her way into causing Trouble. Evidently clear immediately she wouldn't be on the chopping block today.

* Jim Groovester - feeling generally null on this seat, some good posts, some lesser posts, looking to see them get more into the game and cast there net further afield than Magma Mater.

* Magma Mater - Seems to sus me for me asking NQT & Tony to stop voting alongside the company they had (Salvatore), still wanting more from them, but I would say is inside there good range, even though they are wrong regarding there view on me.

* Agentt - Don't really know what to expect from Agent. Been rather underwhelming, spending majority of Day 1 self-preservation voting the next wagon, not really showing much fight or determination to not be Lynched. Expecting a lot more from this seat, but worried they are a Walking Mis-Lynch.

* Salvatore Monday - See This

Salvatore Monday isn't going to be lynched, that is why your vote on him is bad. You had the opportunity to choose to vote either Agentt or ToonyMan, and you decided to vote for neither, which is what I would expect you to do if you are mafia with one of them. Just vote for someone who has a chance to be lynched.

Is there a way I can iso people in thread? Seeing how many posts they have made in that 1 game & only posts in that game?

Currently, I'm just clicking on someone's profile, show posts and trying to go through and keep up with what page I'm on 😂

That's the only way to do it, yep.

Magma, I'm obviously not seeing what you're seeing in Sal, so please enlighten me.

Give me your pov on Sal please! 🙏

Sal & Agent are neck & neck for me regarding whose appearing the most sus to me.

I'm not one to follow the herd, I'm one to make my own way & path, if that deviates from the rest so be it.

I'm not seeing much but fluff from Sal, same with Agent, neither are showing much fight or spirit to me.

Your rather confident that Sal won't be Lynched, which is fine - but I don't see how anything they have contributed could possibly have warranted immunity from the Day Vote.

When my heart-of-hearts tells me "Imp, we're psychic.  Destroy Sal" is when I go for him D1.  I kinda go 'ehh' at the idea of anyone accurately marking Sal as maf from early play.

And he'll purposefully act super-sus, as town.

Sometimes even use that towards town win, not **only** for the lolz or whatever.

Glad for your joy!

I think I'm going Agentt or Toons.  Want more info and need to read more.
