moving on, why would a truly random vote be optimal for you?
also, this is unrelated but a d11 actually has a higher chance of landing on you than a d12 :/

1) Generally, avoiding the ire of other players is something scum want to do more than townies. Also, I've never seen anyone upset by being random voted.crywolf20084 wrote:Instead of angering someone, I just used dice. (For sometimes they are quiet right)Thestatusquo wrote:Dear crywolf, please answer the following questions:
Why do you feel its a good idea to remove accountability from your vote?
If I had rolled a d12 dice and it landed on myself, then yes, but i only rolled a d11.If the dice had landed on you, would you have voted yourself? If so, why? If not, why not?
a) I have no idea how it effects the town, for I have never used it before. B) Its a truly random vote, and c) I don’t know, though I could see the game would be much more boring.In 50 words or more please summarize why you feel that
a) Random voting in the manner you do is helpful to the town, b) why it is optimum play for you, and c) What you think would happen if everyone did it?
And one question to you, how is my TRULY random vote worthy of an non-random one?Answer this in your next post or expect the first non random vote of the game to be on you.
2) Ok, so your vote wasn't truly random.
3) Well, generally the way it effects the town is that it removes responsibility for your actions from you. (I didn't do it, the dice did it) which makes it harder for the town to attack the random vote, and by extension, you. This makes it harder for the town to leave the RVS, which to me, makes it a pretty anti town move. As for B, I didn't ask you what it was, I asked why you thought it was optimum strategy, because generally I think it's piss poor strategy for town. What would happen is that no one would take any actions that could be read, and we would never leave the RVS d1.
As to your question, I am of the firm opinion that voting via dice is an anti town action. Now, that doesn't make it a scum tell, but it does make it a possible scum tell, which makes me perfectly willing to vote for it if I think the person using it is aware of that fact, and purposefully using the vote to remove responsibility from themselves, and slow the game down. However, in general I am pretty satisfied with how you answered my questions, so I'm pretty content to change tacts here.
Rabbit:
Please answer the following questions:
1) Why did you think my questions were so important that you had to make sure they were answered?
2) What made you think they were likely to be unanswered if you didn't vote to back them up?
3) How could you possibly learn anything from a player from me simply asking him questions. Why wouldn't you vote after he answered them, as opposed to before?
4) What do you think of gorrads play so far?

Obviously, if you know so much about Michigan's large crime population, then you have either done enough research, or spent enough time in the state to easily have fallen prey to their shady activities.

for real now.Games are slowing. No one wants to hammer for fear of a mislynch. MS needs a savior. They look for Rosso to save them, but alas! he is nowhere to be found. So one man will step up and take his mantle. Fear not MS, the hammer cometh!

I don't usually vote unless to hammer someone. I've random voted in the past, but all-in-all, I feel uncomfortable voting for someone before a hammer unless for a VERY good reason.scotmany12 wrote:Is there a reason why you FoS instead of vote for someone?Citizen Karne wrote:FoS: Gorrad
Consider that my 'random vote'.

I guess that's part of your meta and all, but do you really feel like that's a pro-town way to play?Citizen Karne wrote:I don't usually vote unless to hammer someone.

Kudos to TSQ for trying to start some real dialogue, but I feel as if he may be trying to frustrate players to make them look stupid.
I don't like how Rabbit picked up TSQ's demands and assisted in pushing them. TSQ is right to question him next.
Gorrad, I don't think TSQ is being ridiculous. He's probably been the most helpful so far. Unless there's some way for you to simply this scum hunt (like, you know, confesss?)

That doesn't make it helpful.CW wrote:Well did it not start converstation?
I like to question die rollers early on, and would've done so myself if you hadn't done that first. So I sorta added my voice to yours, and I find a die roller vote slightly better than a totally random one.TSQ wrote:1) Why did you think my questions were so important that you had to make sure they were answered?
Nothing. Could it draw more attention to the questions? Yes. Could it hurt? No.What made you think they were likely to be unanswered if you didn't vote to back them up?
It's more the die roll than your question.How could you possibly learn anything from a player from me simply asking him questions. Why wouldn't you vote after he answered them, as opposed to before?
Useless. Then again, we're on page 2.4) What do you think of gorrads play so far?
