People liked the Stooges?
I never really got their comedy. I'll take Steven Wright or Mitch Hedburg instead any day.

Two men walk into a bar. The third one ducks.
that's not a one liner
and moe was the shit
but steven wright/mitch hedberg were even more the shit
Wow. hating on not random voting? There has been actually a long discussion on this not too long ago, and I beleive I am not the only person to be weary of random votes. this is he way of play nad is mearly a style. I admit I hate the begining of the first day too because getting peolpe is like pulling teeth.
For now I'm going to put a light non-random
vote: Sailor Jerry
I have a feeling he's just trying to move conversation along, but I am getting a very small scum vibe as well.
Winner of the "if real life was like mafia" thread. :D
**May be going on permanent Limited Access as soon as April 1st. :(**
And I never apollogized for not random voting, and I don't think I ever will. I was simply apollogizng for being late (Which Apartnly wasn't even true).
I'm perfefctly happy to contribute and discuss, I just don't think random votes are a good means of doing it.

I think I just proved that voting people makes them talk...
Two votes on you... and you deliver us a vote and a triple post!
We thank you!

Wow. that was some bad logic there. Or were you kidding? the smile makes me think you were, but the FOS makes me think you arn't.
Personaly I do think that random votes help much. All they do is tend to pressure random people (Which statisticaly means most of the time pro-towns claiming) which is BAD for the town.I admit, it's not exactly game breaking, but I do think it gives a slight advantage to scum.
As for voting newbies. Being newbie is in no way connected with being scum, so I seriously hope you and fritz are kidding about that. True, if a newbie seems very scummy we're not going to NOT lynch him just because he's a newbie, but lynching a newbie right out of the gate seems nonsensical to me.
As for no lynch, I agree that 99.9999% of the time no lynch is a very bad idea. I don't think you're going to have any arguments with me for that.
Becuase I think that may have been a joke, I'm not going to even FOS, but I'm waiting for your responce.

And in the second paragraph, you meant to say that you "
don't
think random votes help very much."
And mole was joking about the no lynch bit, but I think his point is that all the things you're suggesting would deter the town from finding things to talk about on Day One. It's pretty minor complaint, but I can see how it might be worth a "mild FOS."
For now, though, I'm comfortable with a non-participation vote.
Yes, I did mean I don't think it would help. Sorry about that.
Please tell me how randomly killing newbies would help the town win, if statisticly newbies are more liekly to be pro-town than not. (About 4:1) If I misundserstood and this is not what mole meant, then I hope mole or fritz will explain.
As I said before, I don't think random votes are in pertocularly very harmful to the town (See my notes on that above), but I do think lynching newbies off is a very bad idea (if that's what mole/fritz were talking about, and it sounds like they were)
I think I will
unvote: SJ
for now. I'm going to wait a little longer to see how things go.

Well, with everyone working the "vote the no-voters" angle, let me jump in to
Unvote Vote: Fuldu.
I mean, at least Foolster apologized for not voting...
i don't know if you know how mafiascum works
fuldu has street cred
that means he's never lynched d1
that's just the way it works
we wagon noobs d1
Unvote: Fuldu
If I've learned one thing in life, it's that you don't go after those with "street cred" right away. Reading Fritzler's post counts as "life experience" right?
Anyway, on to the Wagoning noobs part. I think this is an excelent opportunity to teach this kid a lesson. He been trying to devert attention away from himself all game; and with nothing to show for it.
Vote: BHNY!!!
PWNED!!!
...wait, shoot, undo, undo,
unvote!
If you came here expecting anything even remotely resembling that of a signature, you are sadly mistaken...
Anyway, apparently SailorJerry is right again of sorts on the whole "vote to make people talk" thing. I applaud.
Also, at Foolster, I know you're defending me and all, but where exactly are you pulling all these random stats from? And aren't you just proving, with every post, that you are more of a kill-joy than me?

FoS: Foolster
for lacking a sence of humor)
