I didn’t. I worked all last night and I didn’t realize we were on a L-1 on Zenith. That’s my bad.

u checked the thread at least 3 times after Plots votecount showing the L-1.
I don't believe u were unaware.

I can believe he checked the site but didnt check this game at the time

Who was l1 at that point?

L-1.

Scary place to be.

I'm gonna unvote to prevent a hammer.

UNVOTE: Suspicious

I believe he's at

L-2

now

Don't get me wrong: I do approve of that.
Just that in yer first newbie ya were really reluctant to vote like ever.

I expect ya to be easy to read once ya start posting, so it's a bit frustrating that ya don't.
I can wait until ya have things to say tho.

In post 30, GeorgeBailey wrote:Beautiful start.

Anyways, the reason I didn't do an immediate unvote, is because I don't think the others realized we were putting

Suspicious

at L-1/L-2.
Also,

Fancy's

post and mine are 1 minute apart. Gimme slack here.

Zenith's

naked vote against

Suspicious

seemed strange, and I wanna chalk it up to RVS, but the post was barren of any flavour/reasoning/anything.

VOTE: Zenith

I wanna hear from you bud.

serious vote for letting the vote get to L-1

RVS pressure gets to people in different ways

Nah
Scum has literally the entire roster to vote during RVS.
Anticipating being RVS voted for having a funny name is one thing, but I see no reason for them to pile up like that.
It's just horribly suboptimal

Also keep in mind that we're still missing a player

In post 40, Suspicious wrote:Why did you choose that option over others?

the alternative requires actually putting in effort

Works well for me, nice way out of RVS, been doing it for quite a while, dont see any issues with it (aside from inadvertantly helping put someone at L-1 by page 1)
Also I like my wagons

The first one failed so...

I think any vote needs to be looked at carefully. It’s our responsibility to see if someone is about to be on L-1. That vote matters a lot more than putting someone in L-4/3. RVSing just to RVS is fine, but RVSing a wagon to L-1 is either wreckless, scummy or both. I wanted an explanation for it, so I voted for them.

In post 72, tictac wrote:@jam
u didn't ask for an explanation tho?
I'd also expect ya to be angry/annoyed that an L-1 happened yet I'm not really seeing that.

In post 83, january wrote:I was a bit uncomfy with how fast the votes went onto Suspicious, but I feel like his response to the votes seemed very kneejerk-y with the thing about there being a mafia who voted him. It doesn't seem like a real "read" that comes from actually looking for mafia.
[snip]

seems like he's just trying to justify something. Basically: Bailey voted that way as a random vote, so saying that Bailey is somehow responsible for the wagon doesn't seem like it's a genuine attempt to find maf. seems like he's just trying to fos everyone who voted

i think this makes sense please tell me if it doesn't

Yeah yeah I saw it, I don't feel like answering it yet tho. It forces a half baked read out of me.

Try again later.

In post 118, Jamelia wrote: My position is that I voted for Zenith because I wanted to hear why they put Suspicious on L-1. To me, without any context, that decision was scummy.

I’m not answering more questions from you about this.

In post 126, Zenith wrote:Voting for suspicious wasn't a mistake, it was RVS. I intended to put him at L2 but Vorkuta beat me to it by a few seconds. I'm fine with putting someone at L1, though it's probably best done with a disclaimer to notify everyone that they are at L1 and to post intent to hammer before proceeding. Because of the quick unvotes, this wasn't necessary.

I'm fine with leaving my vote where it is for now. Suspicious comes off as fake, which pings my scrumdar.
What's wrong with an early L-1?
If scum were on the wagon, would they be more likely to stay there? Or would they be more likely to unvote for potential town points?

[snip - suspicious quote]

Goes from explaining why concerned over a possible quicklynch to dismissing it as highly unlikely in the same post. Things like this concern me. His play so far feels icky, and doesn't come across as town trying to hunt for scum at all. It feels fake.
