So should I use my power tonight?
I feel super confident in my reads--less so that people are going to sheep me so someone can get protected tomorrow night. I had mentioned earlier I thought it would be a good idea for people to pick one person they'd like to lynch tomorrow, so at least one of my lynch choices is likely to go through. Otherwise, I'm ok with not using my power since it's probably more hurtful than helpful if we don't lynch one of the people I pick tomorrow.

Man. I had four strips of bacon yesterday. Was one automatically undercooked, one automatically overcooked? No, let's put a stop to that right here, all four strips were excellent.

Ok. Then who do you want to lynch tomorrow?

Tomorrow?  I have no clue.  Today?  I used to be real big on Witherweaver, but starting to cool off some after his play today.  I mightt be convinced in a silverspawn/awaclus/chairs direction (in that order) but am still pretty open to ideas.  I don't want to jump to conclusions for tomorrow until we hear some results

Anybody have thoughts of possible pairings based on behavior today?  Maybe some folks seem too married up?  Too distanced?  Too much fighting?

Anyway, some possible partner reads:

Ichi - Faust
Hydrad - XP
SS - ADK

Faust's analysis looks scummier than anything I've seen in a long time.

I think ash would be part of a different partner pair if he's scum, Hydrad's reaction is more what I would expect a partner to act like.

What the hell? I mean, can you even back up what you say instead of making these blanket statements?

faust tunneled me first--I'm not even voting for him right now. He has kept his vote on me and refused to move it. Why is it impossible for scum!faust to be the one tunneling me and me just being my normal self? And yeah, I do tunnel people this way--especially after what happened in Musical Mafia.

Hey. Voting for you != tunneling you. My initial vote on you was far from tunneling. Then you overreacted.

Does anyone else want to lynch e? It feels like he's gotten very little attention, and said relatively little, in all of this.

No, e is off the table. He has a power that, if used correctly, will get town!e killed. If he's still alive in a couple of days, we can look into this again.

Hey so thinking we should plan with some of these powers so I'm going to try and get it started.

2.7 - He can do who he feels like I guess?

ADK - We could double Joesph and start trying to find scum.

asher - target who he wants

XP - sit around for now?

Me - Target e?

awaclus - dont use?

Faust - hmm target a good PR. maybe e?

Joesph - We pick? I think we could use this as a second lynch.

SS - don't use?

WW - he could use this on someone and we could test?

chairs - mail XP to set up a night 2 cop thing?

IG - seems to risky? don't use?

Thats my brief analysis of these powers.

-.- I posted a coordination plan twice! before. Are you guys even reading what I write, or should I just stop?

Oh yeah. I guess faust did. I guess I wasn't really paying attention to it since he didn't actually say anything useful about my role.

Can you stop being dickish already? It not my fault that you have a role that's hard to use for coordination purposes.

You have to consider that, from an us not knowing your alignment point of view, there's a 1/3 chance that we hit one of your targets and a 2/3 chance that we don't. (I mean, if you're claiming your target, who says you're telling the truth? And there may very well be new information D2 that makes us not want to lynch the players you picked.) So the expected outcome of you using your role is negative. So I'd actually prefer if you didn't use it.

Anyway, some possible partner reads:

Ichi - Faust
Hydrad - XP
SS - ADK

I don't know, this seems to be mostly people that are fighting each other? (I didn't reread, just judging from the vote count both XP - Hydrad and silver - ADK are voting for each other, respectively). Man, I'm not sure I want to bus my only known partner. At least for Hydrad - XP, I don't buy it. silver - ADK could be possible, though in my experience scum!silver is hesitant to bus.

I guess my read on Ichi is reverting from scummy fake fighting to annoying null. I'm still not opposed to lynching here, but some people seem to have townreads on him and it doesn't look like the lynch is going through, so I might as well vote: Hydrad

I mean, if we wanted to lynch an anti-town role, I think Awaclus makes a good target.  If we want to lynch scum I am not really sure.

I feel like I've said this before, and it should be obvious, but we want to lynch scum.

I would advocate you not using your power.

SS-Hydrad seems like a possibility. ash-one of the lurkers seems plausible too.

I don't see SS/ADK.  SS/Hydrad makes more sense to me.

I have a question for Ichi, no one answer for him please.

Before ash corrected you, how did you think that the setup worked?

Going to class soon, but I have time to answer this.

I thought it was a straight up multiball with 2 different mafia factions that didn't have the same wincon like a red mafia and blue mafia or something.

This day is ending on a Sunday, which is less than optimal. Though I think we have enough information now to make a decent lynch decision. Just don't put it off until the last minute.

Look. I'm sorry. I'm glad that you seem to be considering other places for your vote.
On the whole, I agree with your analysis and am fine with people following your night action plan. Despite ADK's efforts to paint me,  I never really had any trouble with your overall plan or analysis--just your unexplained vote on me. And so far those that have responded the my question seem to mostly to think I shouldn't use my role--and I'm OK with that.
