So far KMD, I'm only suspicious of you. That's not enough reason for a vote.

Meh, I was questioned after elaborating. It usually comes up early in games, and I wanted to dispense with as much of the discussion over it as possible with a longer initial post.
I agree that reasoning is needed for a vote. Unreasoned votes are anti-town. Posting reasoning gives information to the town which allows for better evaluation.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.

Netlava has been around, but commented on basically nothing. All he's given is his opinions on you (Mae) and his reason for voting you mirrored my reason for suspecting you earlier. When I said you were town, he unvoted. Now he's going back to suspecting you, but with no reasons or vote.
Neto has pretty much explained himself. I don't expect to get much more out of him. I'm still suspicious of him, but there are better directions to turn my attention right now.KMD is the coolest dude who ever lost a bet to me - vonflare-

Sometimes voting without a reason can be effective at getting a reaction. This is not to say that the vote doesn't need to be explained later though.-

Zach: While that's true, I think that the value of reactions to unreasoned votes is vastly overrated.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.

Interesting. I see many parallels with Netlava's play.
SaintKerrigan has made 8 posts. Of these 8 posts, 5 are completely contentless. 2 others simply copy what other people has said. The only original post is as follows:
To me, this is a rather weak post. Yes, Netlava is scummy, but the reasons for voting him are wishy-washy at best.SaintKerrigan wrote:Haylen, I have to disagree with you on this one. RQS, in my mind, is used to determine the responses of people to the questions asked of them. I've used it myself as town, so it isn't always scum-driven.
In other news,Unvote: Haylen. Vote: Netlava.Something about his post just rubbed me the wrong way...just kidding. My beef with Net is that he voted Maemuki for a very vague reason and for apologizing (obviously a nulltell). Feels opportunistic.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.

Voting without reason, and voting without giving a reason aren't exactly the same thing.I try not to sign things. It just encourages people.-

Good point.Voting without reason, and voting without giving a reason aren't exactly the same thing.
Dear Neto,SaintKerrigan has made 8 posts.
the game started on 18:00 (my time, GMT). It's 22:10 now.
Okaaaaay. This makes complete sense. Especially because some people didn't post yet!
Oh and RVS's over, vote goes boom.Unvote-

Really? I don't think so. I've responded adequately to the questions that I was asked and have provided new suspicions.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.

Hello, everyone.
I thought it was a 5pm start.. so I am ALREADY behind.. but I will catch up on the bickering later on, and let you know what is what.
FOR now, since the RVS is over (?) I will refrain from voting KMD.. but I do like to make my opinions known.. soRANDOM FOS: KMD
also.. I was listening to Cole Porter this morning. I know that sounds uninteresting, but it's true. I was only wearing my underwear, if that makes it any better."if you weren't trying to be so unnecessarily mysterious all the time we wouldn't have these misunderstandings" - Yosarian2-

It is when people ask me about theory crap.
Also, "Don't like Neto" is not a justification for a vote - in fact, your latest post is the only one with any content either.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.

No, I denied it. I said that theory discussion is relevant and content when people ask me about theory as KMD, Glork and Kerrigan did. I also have said several times that I have provided content. I feel that you are perhaps feeling a bit vicious towards me due to our last game together, so I am not rising to take the bait.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman.

I am sorry if you have to prod me, I have absolutely no concept of time.
