It is of utmost importance to our winning chances that you cease this behaviour at once, excepting the case that your role PM contains the colour red.

Do you prefer evenly-distributed votes or an early wagon?

Both are important, but I like initial even distributions since they're harder to return to later.

Regardless of which you prefer, self-voting is counterproductive because it denies info from the slot that is self-voting both in terms of their voting behaviour as well as from their reactions (since intentional artificial self-pressure isn't exactly notorious for coming from players that are likely to provide strongly AI reactions to said pressure).

I've heard self- voting in rvs is almost always done by scum. Can anyone confirm that?

i think the circumstances there were a bit different, and that was only semi-RVS

for one thing, death wasnt a death sentence in that game. in that setup if people suspect you, you are better of dying. also, since that wagon was kinda serious, the L-1 gambit had a pretty different context.

this was pure "im not afraid of a wagon, LAMIST, im not scared, i have nothing to hide" while misty had more nuance to the self-vote there.
