Whether that's optimal or not, I'm not quite sure but I do like doing it. Considering we can get RNG'd and get a F/F/F draw (unless this is impossible, someone correct me please if it is), I don't see why we're in any rush to elect this particular government.


How will votes on a government that didn't pass (on the first day at least) be more telling than a passed government?
Like what can you get out of these votes that will help you to read people until you can vote for the next government?


Because we don't run the risk of a crapshoot government passing a fascist policy in the event that you are not town?

Thank you for the explanation...
Could you please go ahead and give also an answer to my question you quoted there?


I don't get anything out of votes, I get more time and eat an election tracker that matters very little to me

but "reveal where votes went" != "discuss votes"

was kitaman the one that said just keep electing one dude until facist policy happens?

why was that a bad idea again

Election tracker and we can't just elect the same dude in two consecutive elections, it's a rule.

Also it is likely that we get at least once fff. And if the two fascists that are not hitler get into government and enact fascist policies, we have three, which would let mafia auto-win if hitler gets in the government. So hitler could enact liberal policies to get in the town circle.


6/11 liberal/facist

worst case scenario we get L/L/L L/L/L in the first two draws, leaving us having to enact 1 facist policy before the deck cycles (by discarding every government policy until a "random" one is chosen)

so we are at 2/1 and the deck cycles. hitler infiltrates the "town" circle, and worst case scenario we're dumb enough to have a facist in there too. so then they throw away liberal policies to enact two facist ones, in which case we deserve to lose anyways for somehow building a town circle with a facist and hitler in there.

in a less dumb situation, we have 2 liberals and hitler infiltrating this triangle. we pass two liberals and 1 facist again, and we are at 4/2. we now get an investigative power to peek into the triangle and a lot more information on who is liberal/facist based on conversation, and we go into the later phase of the game in a very, very good spot.

why won't this work?

this argument is "if liberals play bad and stupid facists win"

yeah welcome to the game.

also you fixating on a point on me "lying" is really inane and forced trying to generate content when no one's paying attention to you

also I hope we draw F/F/F and descend in to chaos

ideally we'd send off as many governments as possible, no? I think statistically we are unlikely to enact all 6 liberal policies without a reshuffle

when cards are reshuffled, are we reshuffling all the non-enacted cards, or are we shuffling the entire deck + the unused policies?

you might not believe me, but I actually think lying is a scummy thing to do.
And you did lie, as you stated two contradicting things.

Also I think this response is scummy.
It doesn't fit into the careless attitude you showed, because you are clearly bothered by it.
Also instead of explaining why you said what you said as town (what town should be capable of), you decided to attack me and my credibility, calling it an desperate attempt of generating content.
Also you made this post, which I interpret as an attempt of making me look stupid

Where I stated that trying to figure out your argument was confusing me (before I read your last post of course), which I admit was unnecessary to state as I already realized it doesn't matter anyways.

But the way you attacked me on it, together with the second post, seems like scum trying to defend themself by making the person with the argument look bad opposed to trying to convince him that argument was flawed.


so what makes you so sure that I was lying instead of literally forgetting what I wrote?

I'm chill with passing this government

I'm assuming I want to pass krogan or rayn into chancellorship-- is it going to pass though?

What's your opinion of prpl? I don't see him mentioned in your filter. Since you failed the pair yesterday, but are willing to pass today's team, does that mean that your original policy is no longer necessary?

If you're voting yes today and you're on board with selecting rayn or krogan next cycle, does that mean you think the facist team is myself/Rels/byj?

I'm not actually going to just be anti-liberal for the sake of it. I think enacting governments is a good way to get information, especially if we are up one right now and have a guaranteed +1 liberal policy barring any unlucky draws, or if one or both of krogan/rayn played us and passed a liberal card, in which case we won't be incredibly behind and it'll give us a look into getting more information as liberals.

In terms of who's the most liberal in my eyes (as in, I'd elect them Chancellor), it'd be rayn = krogan > everyone else, even if I'm salty about krogan doing nothing but calling me a liar just from how government 1 went.

After lots of paranoia I'm actually going to vote NO on this team.

I don't trust the way Rayn/HK are both pushing the idea that the scum team is just the two lurkers byj/rels, even though neither of them have done anything specifically scummy, and I think that probably one of Rayn/HK will be scum.

I'm uneasy about the fact that it doesn't seem like I can pass the team that I actually think is town in Me/conversion, but this team is already set to pass between Rayn/HK/prplhz/Conversion voting yes.

Also, despite actually posting, Prplhz isn't showing any sign of thinking about people's alignments and I don't like that rather than trying to evaluate my alignment he posts this nonsense:

I think it's acceptable if we already discarded 1L and 2F.


I feel pretty uneasy about this atm so instead I'm going to try to push through Conversion's team. And I actually feel a bit better about Kitaman for the post questioning why byj is scummy, so I'm ok with trying Kitaman's team as a fallback.



Who would you have me vote (besides yourself) for chancellor? keeping in mind people will most not likely push me through anyways..

also to @Grack I felt like HK was more focused on calling me scum (not sure who he thinks my partner is in that case) than byj/rels, no?
