my conversation with Theta has nothing to do with anything you can do to find mafia.

if you want to make a case for someone being mafia feel free to do that I'm certainly not stopping you.

I have a question on the hypothetical massclaim. How would the order be set?

like do you think you get nothing from my conversation with Theta?

do you think it looks like 2 mafia who are theatering?

do we look un-aligned with each other?

do you think I believe what I'm saying? do you think theta does? do you think either of us are more likely town or scum because of it?

all of these are things you can be saying

or you can say something like this conversation is NAI and clogging up the thread you both should stop if you think both of us would behave exactly the same regardless of our role

but then I'd question what actual thread conversation are we supposed to be derailing? thread looks pretty dead to me.

like popping in to say oh this is unproductive without actually doing anything productive yourself or having a direction you want to push the game in just feels like you saying things that you think look good

In post 220, SirCakez wrote: more enchant votes only comment i have
This is the post that made me decide to go for Cakez over Ari or Ali. Ari started the push and has specific, very established reasons. Ali was engaged a bit in the claim talk and wanting to get rid of guns. Cakez piled on more so for meta'ing Enchant it seems. The vote also came in not long after Ali's. Maybe there was hope there'd be more momentum for a wagon to start that didn't. To me his vote was opportunistic and not from the same place as Ari or Ali.

At this point I'm not making a case on Cakez, I'm just trying a different direction than Enchant. I'll say it again so I'm not mis-represented. I am NOT saying I think Enchant is town and the gun claims are interesting choices to make. I tend to agree with Ali's statement that guns have to die at some point. My stance is just to save them for later.

I think this is a good example on why this is advancing the gamestate, because you're sharing your POV on disagreeing with my initial statement, which helps me understand your perspective on the game better.

I said my statement initially because I did not see anything that helped me sort you,
Theta
, or
Bulge's
slot.

And this is changing that.

I just stated scum can also win if all town roses are dead
That’s been a thing in every run of this setup
I've never played this setup before but it just feels silly to me to pick rose as mafia - I'd pick gun every time
I don't think it's silly at all for mafia to choose rose.

The issue is not "does this setup choice make sense as mafia?" - I see it more as "what can mafia do to endgame?"

Selling the idea that only mafia will pick guns while being a mafia rose is one way I can see the latter's objective being true.

So I want another explanation of your scumreads on
Enchant/Wheme
, because I'm unconvinced off of this premise.

Unless I'm misreading the rose ability, the mafia can theoretically protect themselves from a shot.

Sounds attractive for those who know they're often LHF or suspected early.

Can you share the post where
Enchant
lied? I didn't pick up on that my first read through.

I recommend providing an alternative if you think people are misled here
I don't want an alternative I want Enchant lol
