I don't think I even agree with the statement 'less discussion is good because game is stagnating'. The only major difference of today to D1 was just less Shalako and Kilg arguing, and D2 was unmemorable in general just because CF7 got tunneled on and people on his wagon didnt really try to look at anyone else. Which is why gamestate is subdued. The decision to elect a TC, then deciding its redundant anyway and only allowing one lynch option was also demotivating for town because time is wasted, especially for me, because it feels like I got betrayed. Majority expectation was in me being able enough to lead the game or at least to be in a state of power. But it felt like my dedication to the game was mocked and its irritating.
By extension, I also don't really get why Serela is the one whining about this here, when its clear he had a hand in forcing me to lynch only CF7 and didn't even give me the option to choose someone else before the 48 hour deadline, I wouldve gladly switched over to Dan or even Shalako if it was possible because it wouldve meant I can actually exercise my privilege as TC and follow my own read. Not without mentioning I also named those as other potential lynch candidates. I don't get instead why he decided to just ignore my case on him entirely instead of just responding to and convince me to follow my other leads.
Basically, everything here feels very hindsight-ish. Also Shalako was practically nonexistent aside from the spat. I don't recall who that is he wants to lynch, I don't recall what other significant cases he made other than very specific and brief questionings he never follow up upon. If Serelas problem is that everything he does do not follow town play optimization, I can't even perform such analysis on Shalako in the first place because there's nothing. These are the two people whom I would want to see lynched.
Side note, theoretically I can pick a bone with Kilg and his playstyle for seemingly trying to dismantle the TC function by forcing one lynch option because I have expressed disinterest in a CF7 lynch. Realistically, I can't though because I am a very methodical player, I see that there are much scummier people who do not have the backing nor justification of a well defined meta (ie Serela and Shalako), I see people who are generally town but also has no well defined meta(Nagisa and Kilg). I thusly don't see the merit in me deciding I should lynch them instead of the aforementioned scummy people.
I also want to hear cases from everyone, and preferably also your views on the TC election. Why did you feel its acceptable to vote me in a position of power then proceeding to tie my hands anyway, and why in specific do you think of the gamestate, I personally don't feel it as stagnating more like scum is trying to discourage players from posting because posts mean more content, more content means new insights, new sights lead to conflict and validation, and validation means commitment and potential contradictions.

Tldr, get active people
