The Rumble 2013 [CONCLUDED]

[classical_hero]

vote:Abstain

[Ferret]

Vote:classical_hero

for daring to post above me.

[BSmith]

Great, we've got a wackjob vigilante who's come into town to rule as a petty tyrant through fear and violence (this is murmured towards the back of the crowd, so I don't get my hat shot off again. I quite like that hat).

I'm going to resist the urge to vote: Abstain, and instead just open up the random voting:

vote: Zack

What do you have against the one man who can save us from this evil?!?!

vote: Ishmael

[Montmorency]

Have fun and remember: It's not personal, it's just business. Please do not get personal with anyone, and don't use profanity on this forum.

I take it that this game is going to get pretty intense...

Vote: Curio or Scribonius or whatever

[EnderBoy]

Well this is already different from some of the other forums I've played in. There, they hem and haw, saying how unfair and random a Day 1 vote is. Here it's like "has the game started? Well I've already lined up my first six votes, so tell me when I can start placing them," like little Johnny Votingseed.

Questions, for Pizza or whomever else wishes to answer

1) Will this game be located entirely within this one thread? (yeah, I'm sure there are other mystery forums out there, I'm just talking about whether there will be one thread or multiples in this forum)
2) Can a player vote for multiple players simultaneously, or must we unvote first?
3) Is there a vote counting bot or will this be a manual operation? Assuming manual, how often will we get an official vote count?

Thanks!

1. Yep, this thread only.
2. One at a time.
3. Manual (afaik), I'm not aware of any vote counting software on the Org.

[Visor]

Oh and Vote: Abstain. Don't want to lynch anyone on the first day.

[EnderBoy]

Thanks!

And Vote: Gaius Scribonius Curio. Why? Because it's a long name and it would just be really awkward to keep typing it out all game long.
Also Gaius Scribonius Curio was an actor and an orator, the perfect cover to smoothly lie and pull one over on us. Ha! I won't be fooled that easily!

Vote counting bot at your service.

[EnderBoy]

Last question (until the next one):

How are ties resolved?

[johnhughthom]

Vote: newbie

Vote: EnderBoy

[Darth Feather]

Last question (until the next one):

How are ties resolved?

Depends, sometimes random.org, sometimes Rock Paper Scisors (I have read one pizza game where he did that). Or at the hosts leasure

Vote: jht for voting the new guy on round one. What is that kind of welcome.

[Askthepizzaguy]

This game, ties will be resolved via a duel. Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock.

And if you both choose Spock, you both die.

If you tie in any other way, you draw, and it is scored as less than half of a win.

[Double A]

vote: jht because it's the law

[Makrell]

vote: edse

[Zack]

Vote: Abstain

What do you have against the one man who can save us from this evil?!?!

vote: Ishmael

Well, I wouldn't say I'm the only man who can save us, but I am the manliest.

[Diana Abnoba]

Vote: jht

[johnhughthom]

Vote: jht for voting the new guy on round one. What is that kind of welcome.

This was my welcome:

Pleasure to have you with us, EnderBoy.

He's not going to be lynched, what's the problem? What better way to make someone feel at home than by voting them?

[Montmorency]

No, but seriously, who is Likuda?

[Gaius Scribonius Curio]

@ everyone: if in doubt, or if you find the full tria nomina laborious, as in every other game, Curio is fine.

Clarifications regarding 'Abstain' votes are really required too

[Gaius Scribonius Curio]

Thank you Darth Feather, that slipped past me.

[Visor]

Unvote; Vote: Ishmael you are trying to lynch the wrong Australian. Ishamel comes from NSW.....

[El Barto]

vote: Makrell you're fishy.

Dammit, I can't vote for kumquat.

FFoS: Gaius Scribonius Curio for pretending not to know the rules.

[Ishmael]

Unvote; Vote: Ishmael you are trying to lynch the wrong Australian. Ishamel comes from NSW.....

unvote, vote: Abstain.

This year! This year, we'll get you!

[Visor]

unvote, vote: Abstain.

This year! This year, we'll get you!

I think it might be more along the lines of 8 years on the trot.

[Jarema]

vote: abstain as (almost) always, albeit it seems a little different today...

anyway, your name is confusing, it is hard to abstain with you, and so your death does not concern me.
bang!

[edse]

Since that vote wasn't in the format Vote: Abstain I count it as an abstained vote :D

Gaius Scribonius Curio, I guess you prefer to be called Curio over Gaius?

[Ishmael]

Since that vote wasn't in the format Vote: Abstain I count it as an abstained vote :D

Edse and Abstain are a scum team! Lynch them both!

[Montmorency]

Pizza, I really, really wanna know who Likuda is.

Beeeeaaasse...
