Yeah, I said I'd be back in an hour. I was. You dumbasses didn't unvote.

If RM was scum, he would have let me been lynched.

@XLAV
Lol this is weak man. I didn't believe a potentially opportunistic cop claim and I didn't believe a bodyguard claim made someone town. Maybe if the game didn't reach a fucking VTNL hours into DP1 I could have said something about the bodyguard claim before it was a majority opinion Greyparrot was town.
And do you know what I'm noticing, if you want some analysis? Greyparrot has been following along on every single read someone else has. He throws a token line out, and when someone else votes a certain way, he says "fine" and votes with them. He isn't trying to direct any scumhunting, when he had a clear scum read and would not be pushed off it in last game. He's playing totally different.

I'm want to hear from XLAV, but I think Smithers might be scum trying to get town to believe the scum team is one person, when it is two. Virtuoso defending RM would not confirm it being one person, as a TP would not know.

@Greyparrot
If jester is in the conversation, of course he isn't doing it. He was waiting for someone to "lynch" him at 3 votes so he could actually hammer himself at 4.

@Smithereens
So you would believe Budda would make a one person scum team of a hated role?

@Smithereens
And he didn't. And he got an innocent result. And Virtuoso then claimed hated, which is possible for town or mafia.

He could have deliberately messed up the role claim.

And what about RM's inno result? He would have to either be naive or insane.

@Greyparrot
They're in the role list. I don't see hated in "potential flavoring"

It's the first few hours in a Saturday afternoon DP, and two of our players, given their time zones, should have been asleep around the start of the DP. Have patience with people's effort, given we no lynched so quickly in DP1 that those two players and myself didn't get in a word.

@RationalMadman
Let's do a rundown:
- There is a dead paranoid cop
- If you are actually a cop, you could either be naive or insane, assuming Budda would not duplicate a single flavor of a role
- If Virtuoso was commuter, you would have been told the night action failed.
He could be jester, or he could actually be hated. Either is possible, but we should absolutely not put any votes on him.

It'd be even harder to make a 7 player game with TP, I would think.

Role madness is definitely a bit weird with 7 people.

Greyparrot's claim does not make him town, necessarily.

It's early morning in Aussie land. Let's not risk a mislhnch before he gets up.

@David
I shouldn't say I don't believe him. I place it at a 25% chance that he's not lying, roughly.
I've just never seen, or don't remember, there ever being double of any roles in a game of DDO role madness. Given Budda's DP1 OP, I can't be sure it's not possible here, but I just find it unlikely.

I'd like to thank RM for being the person that drew out the bandwagoner. Do you see why I don't like to VTNL early now?

@ethang5
That's an oversimplified, skewed political spectrum. Left = left economics. MSNBC and CNN have mostly neoliberal economic views (centre to centre-right). They are still partisan for the party to the left of the GOP, but that party has not been "left" of centre since the Lyndon Johnson's social democratic Presidency. The past three Democratic Presidents have all vilified Lyndon Johnson, opting to take the economic opinions you might have seen from his GOP opponents at the time. And those centre-right, pro-corporate economics have been entirely supported by MSNBC and CNN.

Yeah. I'm just saying I don't know how using ART in the abbreviation helps distinguish us from an art site with Art in the name.

And the left ones less. There's really no left TV in America.

I don't know how using DART (D-Art) would help us distinguish ourselves from Deviant Art.

I expect Gillum to win. This was Desantis' reaction to the primary win:
"The last thing we need to do is to monkey this up."
It's tough to get in the 0-5% range for black vote, but this guy might just do it.

@Imabench
I thought about this last night:
Medicare-for-All is probably his biggest point - that probably plays better with old people in Florida, all things considered, than TV pundits will tell you. The ICE thing probably worked because young Latinos in Florida are more Democratic than their parents/grandparents, etc. He might talk less about the ICE thing in the general election - it's not very popular (increasingly, but still like in the 25-35 range depending on the state). But don't expect him to drop healthcare. Medicare-For-All is polling I'd guess 65-80% of independents voting in the midterm election based on the recent poll that showed 52% of Republicans supporting it, even after it was explained to them by pollsters. It's just not a fringe idea anymore, even beyond what my hopes and dreams were when Bernie was running.
I hate doing things like this, but I think Andrew Gillum could end up something like the south's Obama. More to the left, but similar in voting effect.
Considering that Bill Nelson was probably asleep when Andrew Gillum started winning last night, Gillum could end up saving the nation from having to see Senator Rick Scott in the near future, which I think is something most of us agree we never want to see. Because now the Republicans have nominated someone from their crazy fuck wing of the party for Senate against a moderate, abd someone from the just-out-of-the-asylum section of that wing for governor. The Democrats have a centrist on their Senate ticket and a leftist who seems to be a much better option at campaigning than the money other Democrats just threw at that primary.
So now, there's no reason for the left-wing to really turn out for Gillum. They won't be talking about holding their nose to keep Bill Nelson, because that won't be the first thing on their mind anymore. Centrists will go the poll, vote Bill Nelson, and think about the fact that Ron Desantis' existence is not an old Onion article, and vote Andrew Gillum.
It's like the old nominated a moderate President/firebrand VP idea, except it can actually work, because the passion of the leftward voters is being rewarded with an actual position of power, and the centrists still get to keep the far-right from having two Senate seats in their state.

I mean, since it's orange, you should want to be a bit closer to blue. So maybe try something like 90-120R/70-100G/190-230B. I dunno, exactly, though.

If I'm thinking it correctly, I think your values are too high. A too light purple doesn't fit the color scheme of the site.
