What im more confused about - is my magnificent seven questions has generated more questions about something: I didn't say - and why I didn't say it. As if I made a mistake.

Sorry, I keep missing posts. So, my issue specifically was that you start by sort of defending the idea that Sky had, that it was a random/joke vote. That in itself is fine. But you then say "but I don't know if it's in character for Sky because I don't know them". To me, that reads as leaving open the possibility that you could pivot against Sky regarding the vote, if for example it was established that Sky had never done this before.

Is it weak? Of course. The purpose is mostly to have a baseline to which we can discuss from. I can see your defence, we can talk, maybe that read develops and reverses. Being concerned about it being "OMGUS" or whatever is pretty weird to me, because OMGUS only really applies if you were retaliating against me because I was coming at you, not for dismissing a fairly weak argument. When I factor in you becoming a bit more emboldened when Silent contests my reasoning, then I feel like I have more to work with.

My comment, to address the irony part, was more that there were a good 13 to 15 pages where people were still discussing whether Sky originally made a joke vote or not. Of course she did, it was cut and dry.

I said absolutely nothing about Sky’s character and now you’re just putting words in my mouth. I do not know Sky and I know nothing of their character. I simply said that I’d not played with them before. You are making things up.

I think it was evident to everyone aside from Lethal that Sky was not being serious and the discussion that followed had little to do with the actual act of Sky voting itself but instead Lethal’s reaction to it.

I don’t want to come off as OMGUS because I’m not making the points I’m making because you are coming at me, specifically. If I saw someone going at anyone with the kind of reasoning you are at me I’d say something.

Considering that, Barry, the attempt to stave pressure off Juice is not a good look. Shame because nothing you've said has pinged me before that
Oh no no, I'm not trying to dissuade anyone from reading Juice any way. I'm just saying discretion on what you push Juice for is probably the better part of valor.

Call it retaliatory if you want.

Vote: Pendex

Purposeful omissions and recreations to push an extremely weak agenda. That’s scum if I’ve ever seen it.

I don't think any I've said this game - is even that confusing.

I thought it was quite clearly a joke vote and something I’ve seen happen countless times before, albeit not from Sky as I’ve not played with them.
Can someone please tell me where I’ve cast any sort of aspersions on Sky’s character here?

Even if you could interpret this as me saying this is out of character for Sky, I’ve literally given my frame of reference in the same sentence. It doesn’t exist because I’ve never played with them before.

Not opposed to Pendex either, not seeing the logic behind the suspicion of Mando, feels very tenuous

Do you read this as an attempt to buddy up with you?
Perhaps. But I've seen him buddy up to me as town as well. The buddying part doesn't bother me as much as him saying he is waiting for us to mind meld, since Lethal and I are usually butting heads and not agreeing on things.

@Lethal Jade why did you say you were waiting for us to mind meld considering our history of clashes?

Oh, have as much fun as you want man. Don’t let me get in the way of that.

It was a genuine question. Playing with people I don’t know very well can mean that attempts at humour when not obvious can fly over my head.

I think you do have to concede that coming in blind and throwing a vote down is going to throw eyes in your direction though?
Thanks, Mando. Look forward to playing another one with you.

That's fair. Joking around in Mafia is just a dangerous thing in general.

Of course I know eyes will be thrown my direction but that is never anything new to me. In order to catch scum, you have to poke and prod and see what's there, and people naturally won't like that.

Right now, my two main scum leans are Pendex for reasons explained and OMB/Gacy.

OMB came in and didn’t elaborate on much more than it being a typical day one and when asked didn’t offer much in the way of reads. I know he’s a bit under the weather at the moment but I do think the time he did take to be in the thread could have been used more effectively. I just got the vibe that he was in here for appearances.

any particular reason why?
I think Tommy does a good job of trying to come in and explain things to Lethal from a neutral point of view. I think he helps to not inflame the fire more and instead looks to move things forward in a productive way. Tommy also explains his logic and it's something I can follow and agree on. There doesn't seem to be any agenda in doing that other than helping town calm things down.
