It is way to early in day 1 to go for a random vote. The person Adam votes for has not even posted in the thread yet. I'd not care so much about it if it was close to the posting and voting deadline, which makes a random vote excusable, but still not desired.
Please note I have not put my vote on him yet, about ten people haven't even posted and day 1 still lasts for quite a while.

But I am seriously irritated by the fact that actions like day1 townclaim or early day 1 random votes are done at all and get defended by other posters.


Day 1 town claims should be considered null. They're complete fluff and should have zero impact on your decision to vote someone.

We are in the 'RVS' or Random Voting Stage. Its perfectly acceptable to randomly vote someone to generate discussion. Hey look, its working right now!

I am however interested in why you're taking such great offense to my (and Kenpachis) actions. You're making these actions out to be much worse then they actually are.

I am aware of that and there is a distinction between having a random voting stage and just randomly voting in a situation that doesn't force it. But we should probably have any further discussion about that after this game, it is derailing.

The random voting stage isn't usually formally declared. It is just assumed to be in effect from the start of the game until players begin to vote for serious reasons. It forces the reactions that provide the information upon which real votes are based.

Tunkeg, setup-discussion doesn´t help Town, takes too much time and energy from scumhunting, and allow scum to blend in. Instead, could you tell me what you think about the other players? What do you think about VE, Kenpachi, and rgTheSchworz?



Kenpachi and rgTS I think I said my view on in my opening post:

Batman/Catwomen

AS DrH said so prematurely discussing Batman and Catwomen is a day 1 topic, which we shouldn't dwell to much on. Both (and Catwomen especially) getting lynched is good for town, especially if they are hitting each night instead of using their DT skill. But we will have a hard time knowing that they are a thirdparty, as any DT checks will show the role they chose to show, and Batman probably will look like any other townie/blue and Catwomen might apear more on the scummy side (from their posting). So I say lets just ignore the third parties for now and just scumhunt as usual, trying to hit red.

Kenpachi townie claim

He does this every game, and it means nothing. I find it much much more suspicious that people are making a big deal out of this. And rgTS reason for voting for him is the thinnest reason I have ever seen. It is not scumhunting, it is not applying pressure, it is just plain distracting.


Bill Murray's mass claim

On February 06 2012 15:52 Bill Murray wrote:
That being said, I want to massclaim. It really backs scum up into having to fake names. It's a video game/fictional universe, how many characters are there, or would I be surprised?



Are you joking? Massclaiming in a semi-open set up like this? We know what roles might be in the game, but it is not likely every role is in the game. Scum might have gotten a few examples of what roles are in the game (or maybe all?), and could then easily just sit back and get one of their members to do a fake claim. This would make the whole massclaim thing only beneficial to scum as:

A) The blueclaims wouldn't give confirmed townies. Or if town belive this to give confirmed townies, a scum is now suddenly confirmed townie.

B) Scum, Batman and Catwomen now knows who to target at night. We would maybe lose as much as 5 blues in one night. The whole confirmed townie thing would just cost us alot of townies, and these "confirmed" townies will be dead before they get to do any impact on the game.

This proposed massclaim make me suspect be either scum or thirdparty, as those are the only ones IMO who benefits from it.

#FOS Bill Murray


But I don't really see why people are voting for either one of them as of now. Sure I don't agree on rgTS vote on kenpachi and his reasoning behind it (RnG and stuff), but to go from there to him beeing scum is a bit far fetched.

VE haven't posted more then one post thus far and I have no opinion on him what so ever.

Got it, thanks.

My bad, missed that line in your post.

Do you think rgTheSchworz scumslipped? That line could mean several things. It could mean that he was defending against anyone thinking Kenpachi is blue and should therefore be left alone, by saying that Kenpachi couldn´t be blue because of how he acted, and must therefore Town or Scum, in which case Scum knows his role. Weird line of thought, but not necessarily a scumslip.

Until I see something from rgTheSchworz that allays my suspicions (or something indicating a scumteam that is not compatible with rgTS being scum) I am going to consider it a scumslip.

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Something's changing inside you
And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinking of you
And the times we had...baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember how I felt inside now honey
You got to make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

ok thought a little about this whole joker thing and here's what I think.
If I were badman I'd try to hit mafia first. Simple reasoning: We're going to kill 1 mafia per cycle via lynches. Sure according to the setup there's a shitload of vigs but those people don't know for certain if they're going to hit mafia or town, same for our lynches, so that'd be deaths for both sides.
Just for the sake of a number, let's take the 1 I was talking about and ignore everything else.
How many people does mafia kill? Well according to their KP 3 per night. They know who's town and who's not therefore they can't miss but they might hit a vet or someone being protected by a medic. Same as above: Just for the sake of numbers let's take the 3 as well.

So we're going to take 1 mafia out per day and will lose 3 townies per day. Obviously those numbers are bullshit but the essence of what I'm talking about is that mafia is killing more than we do. So if batman isn't able to kill hugo on d1 there's probably already a bunch of dead townies by the time he finishes off Hugo. So the chances that mafia makes him win while he searches for Hugo are enormous. Sure he has to make sure no side wins by a rockslide but if that's not happening mafia is probably going to shoot joker somewhere in the process anyways.
I'd say we use Batman on our behalf and make him help town. I don't have a problem with him killing Hugo and neither should you. Hugo really is the hard part of Batmans job imo.
After he killed Hugo we can start talking about giving him Joker to prevent a badman rampage.

It's good for day 1. There has been a "town" plan to have the joker sacrifice himself day 1 when it's obvious Batman would just use his DT power unless he's an idiot. That's good enough for me. I'm done talking about that joke of a plan. If it is a scum proposal, they're gonna ditch it and move on to something else probably an easy lynch like rg or kenpachi
