    Why do you have such a comfortable PoE when there has been zero mechanical info so far?

    Having a list of would be okay if lynched today is one thing, but you act like you're sitting pretty for the next few phases lynching whoever you want because you aren't worried and do you see why THAT WORRIES ME

    Something as simple as a graverobber out or a red check or a vigi kill could flip all possible worlds on their head and it just doesn't make sense to me as a villager to be so comfortable with a supposed PoE right now?

    My issues with Newcomb are primarily:

    - the Delphine-Miner comparison which doesn't really make sense to me as a thought
    - the post where Newcomb voted Shadow which... feels a lot like he was just trying to bury him
    - a couple of O__o reads which I don't specifically recall, although that's mostly in the context of teams

    There's, like, glimmers of town feels so I'm willing to give it time but this is what is bothering me.

    So are you in line with my recent posts wrt Newcomb?

    If so you should DEFINITELY not be on the Shadow wagon. The fact that you are given your feels about Newcomb is moderately concerning to say the least.

    Waco's lynch list is pretty bad actually.

    I would be willing to lump Shadow rather than lynch him and forget about Newcomb for now if it's THAT much of a hangup for literally everyone else

    I would rather not have Shadow lynched and have Shadow checked, than have Shadow lynched and anyone but Newcomb checked.

    Only way I'd be okay with a Shadow lynch is with a Newcomb lump so that if he's witch he gets outed.

    Agree.

    I would even rather mislynch Jarizok if Jarizok is town than lynch Shadow.

    Or I'm comfortable letting it go to Judge.

    @Stanari

    Join me in the lump on Newcomb and it might possibly actually happen.

    I am not sure how many of the things you called out are scum Newcomb things as opposed to Newcomb things.

    I actually legitimately dislike Shadow's posting and it's totally plausible that I'm just stuck in a tunnel with terrible reasons.

    It's not a "comfortable PoE" in the sense that I think it's 100% right., it's a thing I feel comfortable with doing because I don't super care if we mislynch D1. It's just.... really not the end of the world. As long as we're not lynching a townread, I'm pretty solid. Lynching a not-townread is lynching in a pile of like, 5-6 people, that's already a coin flip to hit a witch, and if we don't hit one, so what? We'll hit one tomorrow. I'll get worried if the Vigi goes off N3; I'm not worried now. Mislynching D1 is just not a game killer, especially in this setup. Would it be better to hit a wolf D1? Sure. Am I going to stress about it? I am not.

    MAFIA IS NEVER A CALM PLACID MEADOW NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS

    seriously though you're correct and my primary problem this game is that it's been kind of experimental to see if there's a "better way" on D1 since it seems to whiff so bloody often.

    Apparently the answer is 'no' :V

    I just feel like consensus-y wagons must have the implicit permission of scum in order to form at this stage in the game and are thus an inherently bad idea? I mean, scum are part of the consensus, yeah?

    Meh. I guess that's true at any point in the game and you just have to try and steer clear of it.

    ...is it just me or has everyone suddenly stopped campaigning for lump? >_>

    I mean. Off the top of my head, wasn't WH13 on Fantasystrike literally witch!you and witch!Ixta getting run up D1, then Ixta getting run up all of D2?

    You're not wrong that "too consensus" is a thing, but you need to look at game context, vote movement, specific interactions... it's not just a blanket thing that applies to every situation

    Do something, dammit! If you're actually just mislynch fodder then you're kinda making me regret trying to keep you alive here :v

    (Oh that reminds me, I might be unduly pleased with having kept VD from being run over in Portal 2 Mafia despite him being super shitty. I guess if he had been scum I wouldn't have known it though >_>)

    Okay but WH13 I seriously fucked up D1.

    ...ugh, I guess if one of these consensus lynches is someone fucking up D1 it would look similar to mislynch bait town >_>

    Lynch: Jarizok

    Lump: Shadow

    Would vastly prefer a Shadow lynch/tom Lump, but I ngl I can't resist chilling on the cool kid wagon(s).
    --- Post automerged ---
    That's kind of my point, yes.
