Guys, you need to know that the big beautiful bill act was a major success. I am seeing behind the scenes data showing that reshoring is going to be huge when you combine the tarrifs with ways to avoid capital gains tax that the BBBA opened up. We are unlikely to see the full effect until 2028-2030 which is just in time for whoever the next president is to take full credit


I wish I believed any of that. Honestly.

I think we need to focus our attention. We've got roughly 28 hours left in the DP. I think the focus on getting a claim from Banana and Thoth, the latter of whom claimed to have pertinent results should we get enough claims, is a good place to start. If people want to add Wylted in there, I need better reasons to do so than I've seen so far.

VTL Wylted

Banana wanna follow me on Wylted? He d esperately wants other people to claim and is “threatening” people for not claiming, how about we hear his claim.


Don't really get the shift. Banana hopped on and didn't claim, and you just said you were fine restricting the number of claims we're getting this DP.

I don't have a problem seeking Banana's claim here. Thoth has said that he has pertinent information should enough people claim, and I'm expecting him to provide it soon. Apart from that, let's hold off on further claims.
The worst part thing, I completely believe Banana when she claims she didn’t know about Noah being scumread for being a Democrat. I just dont think it’s alignment indicative.

Also, if Banana is Town Wylted is Scum nearly 100%.

I rescind my town read of wylted, I have no idea why I townread him.

Unrelated but, y’all said you scumread me every game? I take this to be some kind of an insult, and to this I say, SKILL ISSUE @Rex


I agree on the first part. Don't really see the connection to Wylted. The reason I was townreading him was because of the character claim - personally don't think Pie would call out a member of the scum team in the OP - but I'm not giving him a pass for it.


I do scumread you a good deal, though not this game. Maybe that should ping me more...

I was trying to provoke a reaction because this game is so damn dead ;/ I am happy Luna replaced in but sad Kohai died, they both drive activity. Luna has been inactive thus far but that’s unusual for him and I assume he’s just not feeling it.

I’m gonna claim. My role is useless. Or almost useless. I have the insane ability to steal someone’s vote at night, and use it anonymously, Vote Thief. Sounds great but it doesn’t work at MyLo.

There are a lot of mechanics this game that deal with votes.

Yeah… that’s concerning. It’s a role you could use to confirm yourself, though Vote Thief is generally more common for scum. They’d be more likely to keep that hidden, though, so that’s at least something in your favor.

Have you used it yet?
I have not. I considered using it on Wylted, quite seriously, but decided that on the off-chance he is scum I want to see how he votes


Alright. I’m asking more out of curiosity than anything. Regardless of your affiliation, I don’t think you’d claim it if you didn’t have the role.

The fact that Mago, Kohai, Noah, and Banana have all been the big lynch discussion targets does make me think that the scum team might be experienced players who are just sniping off the easier players.

Luna kill points to that too - either points to extreme caution or a fear kill.


The Luna kill is just confusing. Maybe because he was quiet, they thought he was hiding something? Luna was null to basically everyone last DP and dude would not have been in a great position this DP beyond proving his role.


I don’t get how that list makes the scum team experienced. Scum could be in that pool, being a big lynch discussion target doesn’t make them town. Noah is confirmed and Kohai (Luna 2.0) basically is from where I’m sitting, but Mago and Banana sure aren’t.

I’m just wondering if WF could be scum Governor with some crazy modifier like “You are only allowed to target Town"


If you want to believe something absurd like that is possible, that’s up to you. That would start to get into bastard modding territory from where I’m sitting, but I get the paranoia.


Anyway, I know I’ve been absent for a bit here, don’t plan to keep that up. I’ll catch up on what I’ve missed shortly.

So when we were talking about lynching Noah because he was the only claimed Democrat, why didn't you mention you were a Democrat?

Yeah, I’d like to understand this as well. You did go from sussing him due to a lack of activity to null on him, but it came with no explanation. Considering how prominent of a lynch option he was, in particular because of the Democrat claim, I’m confused why you didn’t mention it or at least say you had reason to buy his claim, some indication that your claim aligned with his.
tbh i didnt know the democrat thing was even a talking point

I don't see any direct responses to it from last DP, so I believe that's plausible. You said you were null on Noah, but I didn't really see much to inform that read. Seemed like you had some behavioral reasons to sus him earlier in the DP, though. What changed?
wasnt a strong scum read i was just pressuring him because he was agreeing that he was suspicious, and then he went afk when he said he would be posting, just kind of disappeared. but he had posted a lot more by the time i was on later so i dropped it


I'll leave things here on this front for now. I'm not sold on you being scum, but it's hard to ignore how opportune it was that you weren't around for any of the conversation on Democrats being in the game.

Well… not much has happened I guess. Banana and REF haven’t posted yet and Luna’s not back, so we’re almost half gone. I’ll admit, I’m just exhausted today and it’s sapping my investment, so I might not post much tonight. We’ll see.

whiteflame

Alright, so I’ll clarify what happened at the end of the last DP.


I’m the Governor. I overturned the lynch and shifted it to Noah. I thought Kohai was pretty clearly town after he was lynched. My only choices at that point were to shift the lynch to Noah, who I believed was town but couldn’t be sure about, or change it to a NL. I preferred the former and made the call.

Exactly. And why I feel I should stop playing the game. I’m probably just too autistic for mafia

Dude, seriously, you're not. We won the last game together and I was able to see you were town all the way through to the end.

Yeah. After lighreraklt screaming into a void the entire game.


I was one of the targets of your "screaming into the void" and it helped me get a grasp for your thinking that game. Seriously, dude, don't sell yourself short like this.

Are you town?

Yes.

I wish I could just lay down and not wake up

That is absolutely not true.

My physical and mental health is not in a. Good spot right now


Damn, I'm really sorry to hear that, man. My wife has been going through it a lot recently too.

Fine I’ll claim.

Gentner Drummond
role. pretender. I get a new role each night
justification: I’m a RINO and try and blend in.

I fucking hare being D1’d every time I get a decent role.


Seriously, why is this something you'd be so concerned about claiming, man? Do you think you're just an obvious NK/manipulation target with a random role each night? I don't get it.

why is kohai at 3 votes? if its a good reason i will help, otherwise we vtnl

I gave what reasoning I have back in #259. Largely traces back to the VTNL he put in the middle of the DP.

Why would I as scum suggest NL as opposed to a few very easy targets?


I've done it several times as scum for various reasons, though that's really besides the point. I don't think there was a very easy target at the time. Attention was spread out. Hopping on a lynch might have been easy, but so was the weirdly growing VTNL wagon at the time.

about half the online players oppose lynching kohai and half oppose lynching noah so is there somebody both sides can agree on? And should we compramise anyway since one of these sides probably has atleast one scum in it?

I’d be down for a ref lynch


Anything there beyond vibes?
