S-FM 340: Election Day 2.0

@Lag you're the best at analyzing setups. If you really don't know what to do, that's okay. However, if you don't provide a suggestion, I think town's only strategy will be to follow what PQ said--which I don't really agree with--or just lynch scum.

Yo, you are not going to be skating by in my town. Tell me what you don't agree with in my strategy and do so in the next 5 minutes. You are being lazier than Wrath and that is punishable.

Spoiler : tell me :

This makes zero freaking sense.

Tick tok, you are out of time. You are offering an empty response when I ask you to explain why you do not agree with my strategy. Are you buying time to come up with some lame excuse? I thought about it, I know some potential flaws. Do you? Let's hear it! You are past the deadline, start playing the game or get lynched scumbag!

This is a complete load of fecal matter. Lag does not get a pass for not knowing what to do. It cannot be real, I think Lag and I both know her intentions behind the posts as also suggested by her herself when stated we should be scumreading her for those posts. It is NOT "okay" and your stating that it is is unacceptable.

Picking a random choice between rep, dem, 3rd party, and no one (25% chance for each, maybe even 30% for no one/3rd party and 20% for the two main parties) are the best options

it minimizes your vulnerability to the night kill while also minimizing the risk of town getting snowed by a night 1 ballot box steal.

The big problem with town all voting for only the main two candidates is that if half the town votes for each party, then you have 4 votes on each of the main two parties (counting conspiracy theorist as town here since they're basically town)

Which when combined with a night 1 ballot box steal + 3 illuminati votes for the bad guy, you'll go into day 2 with a 7 to 0 vote lead on the bad guy. That's very bad, almost insurmountably bad.

By spreading town votes out among four choices rather than two, it greatly minimizes the risk of a scenario like that while also minimizing vulnerability to the factional kill.

Beyond that, we'll have to rely on power roles to find out who the scum want to elect + wolf hunt, and then go from there and hope we're not so far behind that it's too late

I'm a wolf with a vested interest in ruining your opportunities to scum hunt people, I will not apologize.

I think it's a 1/6 chance because a player can vote for Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, Gus Hall, John B. Anderson, God, or no one.

Maths are against the town.
That's what I've learned from my past games.

I asked exactly that before the game, you can't vote for 3rd party candidates that are not in the game, you can only vote for "third party"

Damn straight, that is why I knew it was factually incorrect! So is this a town-slip or nah?

This is a partial town-tell for me. As town I think of that strategy more often than I think of it as wolf, so it's definitely town indicative, but I can definitely come up with that idea as wolf too

Also are you town, illuminati, or none of the above?

This relies entirely on power roles to give us information. Eeeeehhh. Do we have a choice, though? Probably not. So what do we do, use www.random.org and vote (or abstain) like this, as every good citizen would?

thoughts on oliver? thoughts on sb16? Have you read my posts?

[Marshmallow Marshall]

thoughts on oliver? thoughts on sb16? Have you read my posts?

No, no, and not really, apart from "YAY A VOTER" when PQ random-voted you, which I liked tone-wise (and that's not exactly a strong read lol).

[Marshmallow Marshall]

I am usually tilted when I play FM. I start shaking whenever I play because I'm so stressed, but no one should let that prevent them from scumreading me.

Okay, I can believe that, and that is NAI. And a little sad: we're just having fun don't stress over it!

My experience with you as town is you're much more manic, right now you sound very measured.

Eh, "very measured" may be an exaggeration, but I see where you're going with this

Yes, I know exactly what's going on in this game.

And this. THIS. ??????????? this post is TERRIBLY wrong lol. @theoneceko O Supreme Enlightened, O Great Illuminati, pray tell us who the wrong candidate is in this case? If that is not what you meant, I would like details :P. Looking at the rest of your posts, such as "PQ is the only one helping town right now", it feels like you're pointing at things saying "This is red. This is blue. This is good. This isn't. I know this.", and that is S U S P I C I O U S.

Also, let the record show PQ and Ceko are not scummates.

@Lag you're the best at analyzing setups. If you really don't know what to do, that's okay. However, if you don't provide a suggestion, I think town's only strategy will be to follow what PQ said--which I don't really agree with--or just lynch scum.

Why don't you do that yourself? I could understand the answer "I don't know what the heck I should do", but you're asking Lag to do it here, so you probably don't view it as impossible... right?
