    He stole my present... I still remember the day...

    All this 'random' voting is a lot of pith and vinegar.

    That's a highly coincedental vote for an incedental vote, Sasaki...

    For what it's worth as they say, I believe Double A to innocent.


    -----------------------

    4 Double A (Nightbringer, Classical Hero, Rebel Jeb, ATPG)

    4 ATPG (Thefluffyone93, Jarema, Yaropolk, Sasaki)

    3 YLC (Choxorn, Beefy187, Ironside)

    3 AKWC88 (Robbiecon, Greyblades, Glenn)

    2 johnhughtom (Winston Hughes, YLC)

    2 A.C.I.N. (TinCow, God Emperor)

    2 Classical Hero (Renata, Beskar)

    2 Glenn (dcmort93, woad&fangs)

    1 Nictel (autolycus)

    1 Insanious (pevergreen)

    1 Skooma (Diamondeye)

    1 Choxorn (A.C.I.N.)

    1 TinCow (Cecil XIX)

    1 Beskar (Secura, ByzantineKnight)

    1 Khazaar (Khazaar)

    1 Captain Blackadder (Frozen In Ice)

    1 pevergreen (Insanious)

    1 Beefy187 (Skooma Addict)

    1 Winston Hughes (johnhughtom)

    1 Seon (DeathisYonder)

    1 Sasaki Kojiro (Motep)

    1 dcmort93 (Double A)

    5 Abstaining (ReenkR, Seon, Nictel, Csargo, landlubber)


    41/47 players having voted this round

    ----------------------------

    It looks like "Random.org" is 'randomly' attempting to keep the tie.

    EDIT: Looking at the post count, I am going to Unvote; Vote: AKWC88 in direct obedience to a primary rule; Lynch the lurkers; since AKWC has been active since the game started but hasn't yet made an effort.
    Come on round Warman and I will remove my vote.

    7 Abstaining (ReenkR, Glenn, Seon, Nictel, Csargo, Motep, landlubber)

    -----------

    I think there is a precedent for ties being decided by the fact that a player's name or abbreviation was misspelt - better edit that AA!

    Thank you for answering Double A, but surely you knew that you were making a bandwagon on another player - I doubt you are mafia, but I doubt you voted randomly.

    If ATPG is being bandwagoned because of his High Profile (see glossary), please remember that strong pro-town roles are easily and stupidly wasted this way...

    Otherwise I agree with those couple who were dubious of 'day 1' logic.

    Also to the one who said something along the lines of "Most active on day 1 will be most likely major roles because townie PMs are sent out later" - good point but remember Chaotix' post which stated that anyone could attain their basic role from him early by sending him a message. So anyone interested in the game could justifiably be active early.

    For a change, I suggest a genuine random lynch day 1. I just did a random.org and it returned "3".

    What changed your mind? You're still fairly close to being lynched; so it's not due to lack of pressure.

    In some cases, not changing votes is far scummier. This is one of those cases.

    Also, Unvote; Vote: YLC I'm not going to be 'that guy' who puts his vote on the person he is tied with so that he doesn't get killed. I'm going to be 'that guy' who makes another person tied to the lynch and has to sweat over it as well. More lulz that way imo.

    Well this is nonsense.

    Here, read this first round. Tell me who was the scumbag afterward.

    Name one game where a mafioso switched their vote a lot on round one. Bonus points if it was a game I was in.

    So, you're claiming you're not a mafioso because you're acting in a way a mafioso would never act? Perhaps the question should "name one game where a mafioso used WIFOM in round one."

    No, I'm pointing out that his theory "No one changes their vote that often this early in the game, unless they are scum" doesn't have any basis in reality.

    There's no attempt at WIFOM in my statement, Tincow, and I know you know that.

    It would be WIFOM if I had said "No mafioso would ever do that, so I must be innocent". I never said any such thing. But if someone said "only a mafioso would abstain on round one" and used that as a reason to vote for someone who abstained, and someone pointed out that such reasoning has no leg to stand on, it would not be WIFOM to state such a fact.

    With the current tally, you will not lynch any mafiosi.

    There are 6 realistic candidates for the lynch, nine if you include those with two votes. I expressed my distaste with mass wagons in the previous game, but here there is the opposite tactical situation. Unless you're waiting for a flinch, the time has come to decide who dies, of those candidates, and put more votes on them so that the lynch cannot be overturned.

    The only case against ACIN is that he doesn't play the way you'd like him to. It's not a case for being guilty, but cutting your losses. Double A could have put more pressure on me and did not, and as such I'm inclined to return the favor (this time). YLC is the same way. Case on warman is that he's been active elsewhere but isn't voting. Possible he's waiting until the last minute to spare himself but I find such a tactic unlikely from him. I could expect him to get lynched without noticing or saving himself, frankly. Case on me is nonexistent/random candidate.

    Classical hero tossing suspicion on me without following up with a vote is inconsistent, and has an outside chance of being motivated by scummery.

    As such, the only decent case I see is Hero.

    unvote, vote: Classical_hero
