Wow, I was expecting, like, 20 pages at least to catch up on. I was also expecting much more RVSing, or do y'all just not engage in that?

Hi! I'm Daisy

We only have one vote a day. Otherwise it would happen.

Oh, Lau, Lau, Lau.

Did I not tell you that NGA is far chiller than... pretty everywhere else I visit? There's a reason I still lurk here, and it's not entirely chaos related.

Also yes please read rules as others have pointed out.

I am afraid the wording there could backfire on me spectacularly, so I will have to refrain.

or can it? I might actually have to go clarify something with the host. Don't mind me being a blorp over here.

Silverfish apparently wants to vote for people other than his mafia partners.

I saw ex on the player list and saw you posting. Could I have read the rest of the list before commenting? nah.

I do! Thanks for noticing!

But I did get the clarification needed, and I think I can safely join the pact if I want to. I'm just very cautious about making promises in general.

...Come to think of it, I could have safely done it before, it's other people I have to be worried about. But I'm always worried about other people.

Town has already lost one pinky promise game in part by splitting hairs to "solve" it. I pray that we don't repeat this mistake.

Conditioning your promises on alignment facts is almost certainly pointless. It may be possible to identify classes of behavior that are more or less likely to be exhibited by scum and non-scum respectively, and then to extract promises limiting those behaviors precisely, but even this has some obvious limits, e.g. "I promise not to converse out of thread" essentially pertains directly to alignment (and was considered non-binding in the last game).

I mean there's no way to definitively prove whether a vote placed on a Mafia member is somebody being Mafia or making a good vote short of flipping them

Ergo

Not an alignment promise

I had been under the impression after our first game that someone would explode or be modkilled if they broke a promise, and I was disappointed to find out that that wasn't true.

Still, I'm curious about SIlverfish's role that prevents him from just auto joining the pinky promise that Fext proposed. IMO its a pretty NAI pinky promise - either I'm town and it doesn't apply, or I'm mafia and I'm just going to ignore it.

Gentlemen gentlemen (and Daisy),

Clearly we have an opportune moment here. A moment to push the envelope of what it means to make a pinky promise with another. All we need to do is be upfront with everyone and barrage the heck out of each with aemidecent promises.

Only scum gain anything by hiding, am I right or am I right?

Also, how dare I be called a coward for not jumping off a cliff. If rather be betrayed by Skystone (before Dusky over there).
