Could you look any more desperate here? I honestly don't believe that either of you are town anymore after how you've been playing recently.

So why are you not voting somebody of whom you are highly suspicious?

If you need help with British idioms, ask Winston, but I will say that this is very boring of you.

So, ladies and gentlemen,

there you have it. On this, the tournament's first (really really long) day,

one player is eliminated.

Logic was:

Hikaru Nakamura.

You are a four time US Chess Champion, and you once wrote a book about bullet chess. You peaked in 2015 with a 2816 rating, but currently your rating is a measly 2781. You are a shadow of your former self, and you would like to earn back some of your former glory.

Because of this, you have joined ranks with three other individuals, and in your secret lair you plot for revenge on a chess world that's full of power struggles, drama and sore losers. You also bring something extra special to the team. You have the power to ensure that your team's biggest enemy is eliminated (1x strongman).

Because Logic was scummier imo, thought I made that clear. I want to kill Chox tomorrow though, his vote on Logic felt very much like a bus vote.

That's an informative reveal. 4 scum and Logic had a strongman. Slaan, do you think it's cool to game out scenarios now?

Need to recheck on dp (was my first townread this game... his comments about CFD did feel off though so hm) but both chox and monty look like good next targets.

I believe I've already explained choxorn

Your whole day just seems like pot-stirring. I didn't like your eod either.

Zack and GH calling for a CFD just before a scum lynch is noted.

Also, all hail Pizza.

it reads like he wanted credit for his vote

OR he was worried about a stronger role getting the rope

Pushing a worldview that now makes no sense after one of your suspects literally just voted off of the scum lynch after you tried to CFD then is also noted.

I was calling for something besides Logic all day. We got lucky on the 25%. :shrug:

You seemed frozen and to not really have any strong feelings about who was lynched

villagers care about eod. effen theorem goat.

I am extremely good with Logic's meta.

I'll be the first to admit my other suspects are not based in an enormously confident assessment of their meta. Those are just guesses.

Logic was also a guess, but he was wildly different for the reasons I noted, and it was apparent from the few posts after I initially suggested he was iffy. I upped the suspicion level dramatically because of how he passive aggressively went after Winston.

In my mind, that was the big blunder I could trap him on. I just had to convince people.

But if I somehow die tonight, my leans are not gospel. Play the game. Don't forget me but don't just disconnect your brains either.

My suspects if town need to be allowed to look for scums and not just get buried under "pizza said ur scum"

It's both more fun and better towning that way.

You literally were defending me and calling me your top town until I voted you.

Never had that level of mindmeld with anyone else before.

Sure knock yourself out :)

My original point was that: I prefer natural wagon formations, ppl vote how they feel is right. If a player comes around though and says stuff like 'lets force a draw, then a mafia might out himself by trying to clutch save his buddy' (or smth like that) it disrupts the way ppl would usually vote and makes it artificial and thus useless. Ppl that then vote for player X just for the draw can't be really held responsible for that anymore, they don't have to put their vote where they mouth has been. Also there no way a mafia would be stupid enough to draw attention to himself in this situation so that doesnt gain us any infos as well...

Imo wagons need always be left alone and be played out.... with the exception of CFD's but even a CFD is still asking ppl to make a decision themselves...

I hope it's clear what I mean :)

It feels more like you realized Logic's flip would make me look bad, rather than having a genuine progression from townread --> wolfread.
