What is the tradition/promise you are upholding?
Why, the time-honored tradition of voting for self and getting chewed out for bad "Townie Play" that I've done in all of my 3 prior games! Before you ask, I was Townie in 2 of them and Mafia in 1, real traditions must be upheld regardless of alignment.

Also the promise to be GandalfKoala that I made to ghug and the playerbase in general in last game / Discord that's-now-disappeared.

##Vote KoalaAttack
Yes please! Thank you Jamiet, save me from getting sucked into this thread too much again. Must... be... more... lurker!
Emc had this terrible habit of lurking and never laying down a vote until the last minute, so I developed a "tradition" of voting him first no matter what to punish him for bad town play. Then we rolled scum together, and I bussed him from the first page to his D1 death and went on to win the game.

The lesson is, if Koala is scum, so is Jamie.

Question for the group – I postulate that the Suspicious individuals who were excitedly active in the Sign Up thread 24 hours before the rest of us honest hobbits could be Mafia?
And who then does this paint as being mafia?

Because Foxcastle is attempting to use an example of his own previous behaviour when scum with EMC, to predict how I would behave as part of a theoretical scum pairing with Koala (who I have never been scum with).

The logical progression does not hold up.

I am not Foxcastle and I do not behave like Foxcastle does. We're quite different people.

Yes. There's no way he could know at this stage whether or not I would be bussing.

Of course not. The question is merely whether this action in absence of further evidence resembled known prior bus votes.

Foxcastle's argument was that it resembled known prior bus votes cast by Foxcastle.

Do you find that argument convincing for some reason?

It is interesting that Foxcastle would make such an unconvincing argument, I agree with you.

What do you think his motivation was?
