This is dumb. Any day that we spend not voting out a mafia is 1) more time mafia has to **** around and 2) a day later in the game that we have to use to vote him out
I agree with this. Vikes, love you bud but that's like the 3rd weird against-the-grain post you've had so far this game.

Thinking out loud here. Is there a benefit to keeping it close to see how mafia acts tonight? I almost think it's more beneficial to get one guy more out ahead of the pack, because if it's tied up near the end, the demogorgon's vote doubles anyway and then we have to spend another day tomorrow voting him out. We would have to do that anyway if we're wrong, but I think we should go all in one guy and potentially save a day of voting
At least have 1 person leading by 2 or more votes, I agree.

I know we won't actually do it. I'm just posting to have fun because it's better than a boring runaway day.

@cyfanatic13 outside of North and Michael, who are two people you are sus of? And two people who you have good vibes about?
Vikes has too many posts already that I'm not a fan of. I don't love cyfan21's vote on Cubs last night. It's a pretty dumb vote if mafia, but could also see it spun as he wasn't reading that close and didn't know what the plan was. Mafia could've also been hoping it caused chaos.

moores calling out salty's move as not that beneficial has him on my good vibes list. Cause IF salty was mafia, he would've known he was in no danger to the demogorgon voting him out. However, I hope I don't contradict myself, but I also have salty on good vibes list cause he was the first person to throw out the randomizer idea for finding the demogorgon

I'd like to think we could pull this off but 95% of me says there's no way. The odds are low, but a special inno isn't going to want to go home on Day 1.
Sowing doubt.
Quick question - since the new plan is basically the same plan as the first one, what are our thoughts on not attempting to ruin the game?

I'm still not convinced the plan will work anyway but just thinking out loud.
Doesn't want to eliminate Demogorgon through good strategy, sowing doubt.
The mafia is clearly playing mind games. Are they trying to frame Michael or do they want us to think that so we should vote North? Or do they think we'll think that so we should actually vote out Michael?
Causing confusion.
It'd be super risky since we could get the non-Demogorgon mafia today and the Demogorgon tomorrow.

I have a strange strategy that I think would be interesting to deploy. We don't vote out the Demogorgon and see how they vote throughout the game. Of course this would just lead to more mind games, but we could potentially learn something.

Your play last game was much more cut and dry, this game you're hemming and hawing consistently.

@JM4CY since you asked: I like to ask open ended questions and allow people to answer without leading them to my thoughts.

If I say "I think SaraV and Cows are sus, what do you think SCNCY?" and SCNCY is Mafia, he'll probably just say "yes sir, both are sus, please let me follow your every move, sir".

And that's not as helpful as making people think for themselves.

I agree that I'm playing differently. Switching it up isn't a bad thing. If you guys want to get someone else up near the top, I'll volunteer. I'm a reg inno so I think we'd prefer that over a special but not over mafia.

Ask me all the open ended questions you want. It's more fun.

I’m on board with this as well. The push against yesterdays plan was odd. Certainly some risk with specials but trading 1 for 1 with mafia is always a good deal.
Also questioning anyone who wants to keep things close today. Just provides opportunity at chaos later in the day and possibility of an “accidental” tie.

You are 100% correct that it's more fun to play differently when possible.

But I expected you to say this too.

Regardless - who do you have strong opinions about thus far?

It's 10 am on Day 2. I have zero strong opinions. Based on the limited conversations, I'd say JM is innocent. Cyfan keeps complaining so he's probably innocent. Something salty said earlier made me think he's innocent as well. That's all I've got for ya.
