How are quotes 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 scummy? 2, 3, 4 was me pressuring Fate on his poor play and trying to explain that L-1 was bad, with which you guys apparently didn't agree. In 6 I asked you for a reason for your vote, which you ignored. And in 7 I clarified to Huck because he missed my implication. 8 and 10 were just me starting to give up.

Thanks for that Elli, but I still don't see any reason. And I'm not trying to be difficult, I'm just still a bit disappointed due to what I see as bad play from mostly everyone. If there really was something I did wrong, I'd like to take this chance to learn from it.

My top 3 pieces of advice for what it's worth would be Wagons are good, votes without reason aren't inherently scummy and the best defense is a good offense.

But that's the thing, L-1 ISN'T BAD, which seemed to the main misconception that led to 2, 3, 4, and 6. (Along with the false logic that L-1 = quicklynch in 4). In 7 the VI suggestion was bad.
Also, the "RVS is over so Unvote" thing you did on me is also not that good.
Button's points are also all good.

Yea, the L-1 thing just seemed inherently bad. I've never seen it in RVS before, but it seems to be not nearly as big a deal as it is later on.

@Buttonmen: Would you agree that votes without reason are at least not good? In my first game, that was a point of interest when we were scum hunting, so maybe I was just prematurely exposed to a bad tactic. Wagons were frowned upon too, if joined by votes with little or no reason. I agree with your 3rd point though, I've been noticing that people tend to get away with things they did for a while if they manage to shift attention to another person regardless of the validity of the arguments (not that thats bad).

No, both reasonless votes and wagons are perfectly acceptable.

Ademisk you were "pressuring" me on my "poor play" but when I did stuff that was even worse you failed to call me out on it. You were inconsistent. I lynched you for it.

I don't do newbtells I lynch em and let em learn. Next time you suspect someone keep it up and continue to probe their play and question their actions.

And don't ignore Fate.
