Who said anything about claiming or being eliminated right now?
noone said anything about that, well other than me i guess, i just don't see what my vote accomplishes and i do not like to vote outside of those situations
like it just muddies things from my perspective and i think there are better ways to go about gaining information than simply voting and! like i said far too many disasters yeah
Now hold on. I'm asking you to pressure Pooky by casting a vote at him. I never said anything about a claim or an alimination—YOU did. You don't see that votes to pressure other players don't accomplish anything? Clarify that for me please right now. You pressure other players with votes in order to see how they respond. Just because you cast a vote doesn't mean you MUST commit to their claim and elimination that Day.

Your hesitancy on this is making NO sense to me.
i know that i did, i stated that i did in the post that you just quoted
i think interacting with players is more likely to lead to readable content than pressure voting
you may pressure other players with votes in order to see how they respond
but i do not,
as i generally think their responses are more readable in other situations and! i have found that wagons are often pushed through simply because they exist
and! i know that scum!pooky doesn't have a problem with reacting in a specific way to 'pressure' as scum regardless

like really what do you see my pressure vote accomplishing here if i were to place it
Because two votes in more pressure than ONE vote, and when you pressure players they tend to react, especially with more pressure.
How long have you been playing Mafia?
absolutely none of this makes any sense to me
been playing mafia a little over 3 years, generally haven't been voting outside of the aforementioned situations for the last two and a half years or so? since the binding of isaac disaster

Both interacting AND pressure voting leads to readable content. It's not an either/or thing.
If you want there to be readable content then you should not have any sort of hesistance on casting a pressure vote.

WHAT is not making sense to you?
The more votes on a person the more pressure they feel. Two votes cause more pressure than ONE vote.

none of it
like why you think my voting here would lead pooky to revealing himself one way or another in a way that simply interacting with pooky about our concerns would not
why you think my not doing so is likely to come from mafia
what outcome you are expecting from this interaction at this point

Technically both can lead to disaster, in that if the interacting goes sideways a player could replace-out, so your point is moot.
Pressure voting RARELY leads to disaster on Day 1, especially when it's just TWO.
You're making it look like you're refusing to pressure vote Pooky and I want to know WHY.
i mean, i generally take great care to keep everything within the game as much as possible when interacting with others and have interacted with pooky at great length in the past, i really don't see how you would possibly think that should be an equivalent concern to me here in this situation
like i said, wagons get pushed through simply because they exist all of the time and i do not see the great benefit that you are claiming here
what do you mean by 'making it look like'? like you asked me if i was going to pressure vote pooky here and i said no and explained why
you don't seem to like that explanation, but it is what it is
she feels v earnest and playing entirely within her worldview which i believe she believes
she isn't not voting to pooky to stir up trouble or to hold you at arms length
she isn't voting pooky b/c she doesn't believe in voting people she doesn't want to imminently vote out, and pooky has not yet reached that stage
i'm getting a lot of earnestness in her posts + attempting to sort
don't see a reason to sr her rn

There's no real excuse to refuse pressure voting anyone, especially Day 1.
Pressure voting, like interacting, is how you get valuable content.
