UNVOTE: Doubting thomas

[hearthstone1235]

Volxen. Im wondering how fast is your typing speed. It felt weird that transition from lynching the mod to starting a random vote. And it all happened in seven minutes. Why didnt you include both in same message or was that an afterthought. Or did you do that to seperate the joke from the real part. Still I find it a little fishy that that happened in seven minutes.

VOTE: volxen

Yes, I planned to do it that way (two separate posts made a few minutes apart) as part of the joke. And I do type fairly fast.

Given that it was a joke made in jest (because The Worst and I are friends and have played a fair amount of games together), why does the fact that the two posts were made seven minutes apart in particular stand out to you as weird or fishy?

with 9 alive it takes 5 to lynch.

day one will end automatically in (expired on 2019-01-30 14:00:00) or sooner if a lynch is achieved by majority.

I think akagami has good town cred for not voting despitr having like 4 ppl vote before them and itd be easy and tempting to just rvs someone as a wolf

hey doubtingthomas, can i refer to you as DT?
i'll give a slight town lean on this slot, seems eager to solve..
dont agree with giving town cred on shanks for above..though it's very early in the game still..

This is page 2 what are you expecting?

[brassherald]

For the record, you do not need to actually unvote. I don't know if the worst prefers that you do, but it is not a requirement

Akagami wasn’t even supposed to post, since he was replaced by Roo (who did place an RVS vote). Nonetheless, why do you think Akagami’s slot deserves town credit for posting but not placing an RVS vote? Voting during the early game/RVS helps to move the game forward by generating discussion and allowing us to see how people respond to votes/pressure, and we ultimately have to lynch scum to win, so voting is a pro-town action. Just popping in to say “hi” doesn’t help to move the game forward. And why make the comment that “itd be easy and tempting to just rvs someone as a wolf”? Most people (regardless of alignment) vote for someone during RVS.

Why vote for Brass and put him at three votes (L-2) on the second page of the game? Just because he is the IC?

Also, why the townlean for DoubtingThomas specifically? Do you feel he is more eager to solve the game than everyone else who has posted so far?

Thanks for that, I'm pretty new to this so honestly was about to do an unvote and then vote again.

[/vote]BlankVOTE: Because he's quiet, do people ever get upset and not post because they get a role they don't like?

Also on that note, especially for the more experienced players and Brass, what are your favorite roles to play?

Seven minutes means that there was a slight delay between you posting the two messages depending on your typing speed, in that period you might've looked at it and wondered whether posting that joke was really the right choice...Scum tend to be more paranoid than townies. Or you could've posted the joke, waited a minute or two for dramatic effect then started typing your next random voting message. Or you could've posted the joke and started writing the next post semi-instantaneously.

I suppose it also depends whether you made the joke before or not. It appears that you did based on the bolded part. Which would indicate that the first scenario is quite unlikely now.

UNVOTE: volxen

I agree with this being a reach for the stars.

Ya well, early game you don't have a lot of stuff to do so I think digging in the little things can have its own perks in sparking discussion for the day to move on so that we can get more information.

"Let's wagon the IC" has similar meaning to "Let's lynch the IC" which implies that you want at least one more person after you to lynch the IC which would put them in L-1.

VOTE: xwing

(Also, one more question, if you think that was reachy why didn't you vote me or try to apply pressure. you've just seen something that you deem as scummy. are you going to let it get away!!)

[YellowSnow]

I don't think scum are more paranoid than townies. Townies think everyone could be scum, scum know who is scum.

[hearthstone1235]

I think scum worry a bit more about being found out. So they try to avoid doing scummy things and double-check their posts etc..

[YellowSnow]

Depends on the player. I tend to not filter regardless.

[SaintAngelDFE]

That's fair, actually. Best thing would be to not change your play style, right?

I strongly prefer town. In this set up, I always like getting cop or Vanilla Townie the most. Though outside of this set up, I do have to admit Vigilante is fun. A town sided Night Kill is the dream

Do you really think this was an attempt to try get people to lynch the IC? Why don't you think it was just typical day 1 pressure or even a little bit of kidding around?

[YellowSnow]

I find it unlikely that players would admit to liking to play scum. Being a dangerous scum player would increase the likelyhood of being lynched on that basis alone.

wagoning does not equate to lynch..did i say that anywhere or are you purposely misrepping me?
i said it was reachy, i didnt say it was scummy..what kind of cases do you expect by page 2?

I find it unlikely that players would admit to liking to play scum. Being a dangerous scum player would increase the likelyhood of being lynched on that basis alone.

i think this is a case to case basis, i know people who will outright say they enjoy playing scum..but that's not alignment indicative (NAI) at all..i prefer playing VT as well..

so roo, is that how you took my post?
if i told you i wasn't kidding, would your view change?
