Ok thanks for all the replies. This is my first game here, so it’s natural I might find scum where there isn’t any. I just find bandwagons a bit suspicious, because scum might jump upon them quickly to get an innocent lynched. But because the bandwagon was at the start of the game, I am probably being a bit too paranoid.

Yes, and with the fact that a majority requires 5, at this point, you are most certainly being paranoid.
Don’t think anyone tends to get lolhammered in RVS, especially not in the newbie queue.

Somebody hasn't played enough newbie games then. Accidental rvs quicklynches are always a risk if a lolwagon gets to L-1.

[NotMySpamAccount]

VOTE: Jamelia not rvs.

[Jamelia]

Why’s that?

[NotMySpamAccount]

Why’s that?

tone is all wrong. regardless of whether I like what you're saaying, you're saying it in a way that sounds far more like newb!scum than newb!town.

Hmm. What have I said to make you think that?

[NotMySpamAccount]

to put it simply (and not quite accurately), you're using too many exclamation points. More precisely, it sounds like pocketing/ingratiating yourself with people. In my experience, this comes more from newb!scum wanting to sound genuine than from newb!town who are extremely excited.

Gotcha. Is that like a meta thing? To use too many exclamation points or something?

not specifically meta, but more my experience with the tendency of newb!scum to act extremely excited.

Aye, but the wagon which we were talking about was at... L-3. A quicklynch there seems unlikely.

Jamelia’s tone and entrance is certainly different to their only previous newbie game, but I don’t think I can call them scum over it. I am not willing to put my vote there just yet, but I will consider it.

[Geyde]

I find it scummy because instead of voting for anyone else to check reactions, he voted for someone who had already been voted for.

I am not saying spam is a scum, or that you should vote for him. I am just saying that what he did was scummy

I mean, from what I've seen, RVS bandwagoning is fairly common on this site.
So I personally wouldn't consider it scummy, it's just a site meta thing.

Okay sure. But voting for veggie and not for anyone else is still a bit suspicious. I mean why bandwagon?

for the lulz. It's RVS. I was able to think of a snarky reason to vote you more easily than I could think of one for anyone else. Also, wrt the bolded, look what reaction I got by voting someone who had already been voted.

Thanks for your insight Airan!

As the person receiving Spam's vote, when I first read their post my gut reaction was "that seems a bit lhf-ish. Maybe they're doing that to try and get information out of everyone"... which is not necessarily a scum move. To me personally, Spam doesn't quite read as scummy... just suspicious.

Interested in hearing what everyone else thinks!

Why not bandwagon? You often get some good information from it and it progesses the game
Why do you find it inherently suspicious?

Not speaking for Airan here, but just wanted to put my .02 in. Bandwagoning isn't bad and it kick-started the game in this case! But I think that it can be inherently suspicious depending on the order that people decide to jump on the bandwagon. Spam put the second vote in, which (to me) makes them more suspicious than Draynth putting the first vote in. Ofc it's still not a strong indication of Spam being scum though. Just wanted to say that order matters.

What does lolhammered mean?

Discussion of the bandwagon in RVS went on for way too long to not have scum prolonging it

[Geyde]

@Egix96 where's your head at in regards to the thread?
I don't see real solving from your posts

[Geyde]

to put it simply (and not quite accurately), you're using too many exclamation points. More precisely, it sounds like pocketing/ingratiating yourself with people. In my experience, this comes more from newb!scum wanting to sound genuine than from newb!town who are extremely excited.

Gotcha. Is that like a meta thing? To use too many exclamation points or something?

Jamelia’s tone and entrance is certainly different to their only previous newbie game, but I don’t think I can call them scum over it. I am not willing to put my vote there just yet, but I will consider it.

Could you explain the difference?

Sorry, reposting because I voted the incorrect way before!

Why are you voting me?

This might be because you seem (through no fault of your own) a bit of a lurker.

@faüstiv This. Would like to see some more discussion from you if possible. Commentary on the overall game or reads on people... it all helps.

Hey Geyde, are you implying I might be scum? Or is it someone else?

Disclaimer: I wasn’t in their other game, but I have their ISO for it pulled up.
They were less ‘excited’ in the other one, certainly, but there were certainly still many an exclamation point, and a fairly similar optimistic, bright outlook. They were slightly more contenty early game in the other one, but mostly because they were actually asked questions about the gamestate early on — which, I think, cut off the happy greetings — which so far no one’s done.

I do agree that they’ve definitely been very profuse in the area of greeting-type-posts, though.

Giving an early townread to Veggie, I think; 66 is the best question asked so far.
