Looking for replacements for Atronach and NumberFourteen (don't sue me, MafiaSSK—I can't find his confirmation PM). Braeden is prodded.

Yes, that votecount is pretty off
yawetag could use more votes though.

But saying I'm a noob doesn't fly if it's not a noob game.

Megatheory replaces Numberfourteen and Spoilum replaces Atronach. I'll straighten out and repost the vote count when they get their roles.

MOD, can you confirm that that votecount is accurate?


If that is the right votecount, I think some people need to come clean about what may or may not be affecting their votes.

I thought you meant that people need to explain why they have voted for who they've voted for. If so, you have yet to explain your vote.

No, I mean why the vote count continually doesn't reflect who people have voted for. It might just be a mistake in the votecount, but if not, I think we need to discuss whether those with screwy votes explain why.

My vote is on you because you need pressure (incidently you need more votes on you too).

Possibly rolefishing. There is no way to know what names the scum might have as opposed to what names power roles might have. Even if we didn't nameclaim (which I do not support) the scum might have an easier time guessing who has a powerrole based on how they react to this suggestion.

Fakevotes charter and Empking for joke reasons, then actually votes Jebus. Suspicious maybe, but too bizzarre to be genuinely scummy.

Right now, it will stay. There's been absolutely no game play yet, and until I see something to change my mind, I won't move it. That said, I'm almost positive *something* will change my mind.

There was obviously nothing serious about yawetag's vote. There is a good chance that charter is trying to find an excuse to suspect yawetag here.

I do not like this vote at all. It's plainly obvious what yawetag was doing.
charter wrote:

FOS Nightfall. Six posts and said nothing. Trying to fit in with the rest of the town.
Why vote now? charter seems to have set himself up for this vote and followed through once Gamma backed him up and Jebus jumped on the bandwagon. The FoS on Nightfall is waaaaaay too early for the reason charter gave.

Gamma and charter are both wrong. If you don't take into account everything you know about a person (in this case, experience) you're either opening yourself to all kinds of mistakes
or
putting together an easy lynch.

Vote charter
The timing of his vote/FoS post is very suspicious. I'm not sure about Gamma yet (or anybody else, really).

You want me to show evidence where claiming names leads to catching scum? Or do you want to just assume everything I do is scummy?

About all but one of your points there about everyone is not scummy or you are wrong about. Sorry.

I'm voting for you because of your vote/FoS post. Everything else in that post is just a series of observations. If you didn't suggest nameclaiming, I'd still be voting for you.

I'm reluctant to vote charter just yet, as I always find him scummy, but I for the most part agree with Megatheory's analysis there.

The emboldened text suggests that you do not support the town not nameclaiming (and therefore support the town nameclaiming), but that seems contrary to your point as a whole.

Can you clarify?

I kind of lost track of this game with all of the random voting, it always confuses me so much.

I do agree with Megatheorys analysis as well, Charters actons do seem questionable but I dont think I am anywhere near ready to cast my vote yet.
That part of Megas argument that Spolium pointed out seems akward like a mistake, but I am waiting to hear Megas response.

I also agree with the fact that you have to take everything into account about the person(s) you are playing with. If you have the benefit of playing with them in other games, or the simple fact that they are newer.

unvote

Not rolefishing, also stems from the assumption that this suggestion has no pro town benefits. Also contradict yourself.

He provided a reason with his vote, I wanted to know if he meant that as a serious vote since he had previously posted but had not voted. Since he had already provided content you cannot assume it's a joke. And I'm looking for reasons to suspect people, not "excuses". Had he said yes that would have been a good reason to suspect him. It's called scumhunting.

No, this will allow anyone to get away with anything because they've done it before. I've lied heavily as town, does that mean I should get to lie freely this game? Not at all.

I do not support nameclaiming. This is really silly. It makes no sense for me to support nameclaiming and speculate that charter was rolefishing by suggesting it.

I find it interesting that you would assume I was contradicting myself there shortly after Spolium asked for clarification on that comment.

K, let's work backwards a bit here. What do you mean by "serious vote?"

Obviously I don't think the question is as legit as you think it is. I think it's more likely that a townie would understand what yawetag was doing rather than question him and then punish him with a vote. I think Gamma jumped the gun with that vote. I don't think that's necessarily suspicious at this point in the game, I just pointed this out as a general note. How is this contradictory? I don't see it.

So you admit the yawetag vote was suspiciously timed? That's the main thing, the FoS is just gravy. You basically called Nightfall out for not contributing when we're on page 3 and serious discussion has just barely begun. I don't disagree with that general line of thought, but it's too soon to call him out for that reason. And if you throw out FoS's a lot, you should expect people to call you out on them, IMO.

It takes more effort to weigh someone's behavior against what you know about them then to pursue people based on general principles or policies. That's just my opinion. All I'm doing here is providing good advice (at least, what I think is good advice).
