I didn’t trust Blackrune.
I actually switched my vote around two times for that one. I was like 80% sure about Usagi, but… I figured even if the vote failed that might convince people the OTKs must have forced it to fail… I guess it was all downhill from there.
It would have been lovely if the sorceress+me government would just have been able to end it before that point.

gg ez, I was a King, felt bad that I wasn’t doing much and then it became way too late for me to do anything or say anything. I wasn’t lying when I threw out my excuses.
Also, I discarded a progressive policy, was planning to get into conflict with usagi, so people could trust rest more, but I had a bad luck with the draw it seems.
Oh well, it’s all a-ok now 
The reason is that I threw my clout around in those last two governments and burnt a good portion of my good will by throwing shade on Usagi and on Wonderlander. I managed to come up with a good reason for both, but ideally this would never have gotten to this point.
If Pock hadn’t gotten screwed by the draw, I would have suggested Blackrune as President since SOMEONE said that we needed a trustworthy President as well as a chancellor for special presidency, and then I would have laid out why the people who were available were not trustworthy and tried to subtly lever my trust with Blackrune into getting them to nominate me as Chancellor and it would have been GG days ago before I had to ruin my reputation at all really by throwing shade on people.
Wonderlander, as I said, made things way too easy by not substantiating claims beyond bad feelings, which can easily be skewed into them working off of hidden information and not being able to give a good explanation for it.
The picto and akafa conflict could be avoided being appointed into by just saying that voting into conflict is bad and very suspicious, which would allow more shade to be thrown on Wonderlander subtly.
Usagi would have been a previous government along with Pockety, even if they didnt get into conflict there.
Sorceress was forced to play a prog which gave just about as much information as me being forced to play a Radical, which I would then have gone further with saying that when deciding between those with similar information levels, looking at the result of hte investigation from your point of view as well as talkativeness is a good idea.
I would also have said Rabla isnt the best Idea because they are quiet. The only one that I would have had to come up with a better explanation for would maybe be star, but I probably could have done something on the fly like saying he was forced to give a choice due to the way the deck was stacked, which ironically happened to Pockety instead. And considering star was in favor of me as a chancellor anyway, that probably would have worked out fine.
But oh well, the deck is a fickle mistress and the only lies told about the information we received was Akafa saying Picto was a King and one prog policy. All of the Rad policies were a result of triple Rads.
Yeah I seriously wish we hadn’t gotten three Kings. Another question, why did people vote for this government? Because it seems like almost everyone did. Did you guys trust Restkastel?
I probably should have been a more trusting player. The only people I figured were progressive where Blackrune and Usagi and everyone else I was really pretty suspicious of. Sighs. We were so close to victory.
Well four of the votes were the Kings and Oyashiro.
Then Picto was going for an instant win/lose since he was a bit tired of the game I think.
I think Star just trusted me, and I think Blackrune had trust for me not being Oyashiro I guess.
Well played, I figured the possibility Rest was a fascist but I couldn’t really prove anything and since I’d not been talkin too much I didn’t have much trust, so I kinda had to hope. Oh well, go!
I was a progressive.
