...Would you believe that I forgot? Eh. Take it as a gesture of support, since you won't get nominated anyways.

Web/Jack/Egan form an interesting trifecta as the players who all deny the NQT-ascendancy (though Web and Jack have fallen in line with the vote), and they all favor Reina. And the support is mostly asymmetric: Reina doesn't favour her supporters, and other than Web liking Jack, they don't support one another.
This fails to encapsulate an important factor: I'm not able to be supported (Or rather, I'm not wanting the support or I'll lose.) Why is that not a listed factor?

As the day dragged on and became long, notquitethere's support only grew, with only token resistance remaining. Now it was clear who the first of the three nominations to the position of Emperor would be. It was so clear, in fact, that some argued that the gathered Court should simply give notquitethere the seat, and then claim some well-earned rest. As it happened, however, the day was already nearly over and done.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

I see you Egan, what's your proposed council??
*cough* Egan is Onyx *cough*

Not sure why you'd support me when I think you're Onyx, but alright. Honestly, I see it as a way for you to distance yourself from your teammates, but if I'm gonna be honest, you'd be better off putting your vote on notquitethere, if your goal is to sow confusion.

So Egan_BW, whom do you think would make a good 3 person counsel, without including Webadict?

Kinda getting the feeling that the general restlessness from everyone might be because a lot of abilities go online starting Day 2. Though since we don't really get any flips with this set up (with some exceptions), I wonder how Day 2 is supposed to play out. We aren't guaranteed to gain any info as we move on from Day to Day unless PRs get successful results.

Yeah, a'ight, Shorten. This is boring.
Anyway, I don't anticipate any new insights for today, so let's shorten

A vote to shorten the Day may be initiated by any player after 24 hours have passed from the start of the Day. If a supermajority (7 currently) of the living players vote to, in bold, Shorten the day, then it will be immediately ended.

To prevent shenanigans, if any player places a Nomination / Election vote, activates a vote-affecting ability, or votes to Oppose or Cancel Shorten, then the shorten will be cancelled.

A fully completed shorten vote will resolve at the next regularly scheduled vote count time. It may still be cancelled up to that time.

I'm thinking it was done to intentionally reset the shorten votes in order to drag out the day and build apathy.

Weird way of putting it, though I'm not sure how much we can read into Egan's nonproductive vote. He's pretty scummy either way.

We can only wait and see. A lot of the info will be seeing who supports who when there's much less unanimity over a candidate.

Also I've got a horrible feeling I'll be assassinated or something.

Ah of course.

Fucking Shorten, can we at least have a simple majority and as long as the top leader won't shift, the shortens stay, because god fucking damn is that unnecessary to need EVERY TOWN MEMBER TO SHORTEN.
