Holy opening bandwagon Batman! That was really quick, and somewhat frightning. However, since I just opened this game for the first time, I think it's time for an opening posts PbPa on Dripping Goofball.

Duh!
FOS: neongrey and RandomActs
for not paying attention, haha.
We already have something to work with... who did the Asian Mafia recruit? I'd say Fritzler because 100% for sure he'd "accept the offer" but I think HezLucky might be the evil ones best asset (not offense to all the other players that weren't chosen).
vote: HezLucky
, top target for mafia recruitment.
Note: Hez, I love you, please don't be mad at me.
Hez is about at the midway point of mafia players in this game. It seems odd that you would pick HIM to be "most likely" recruitment. Fritzler would be a good choice, but not for his mafia ability, but more of his randomness. I've come to embrace it. Also, the rules state the the person who is recruited is choiceless about the recruitment. This post seems incredibly "out of place". It isn't downright scummy, but it rates on the scum scale.

Including yourself, Fritz?
Warning: NOT a trick question.
Why does it matter if Fritz would be recruited? This post seems to create the idea that Fritz was NOT MAFIA earlier. Do you have that knowledge, DG?

I really need a huggle. How's going to give me a huggle? It's cold here in the mountain.
(Huggle: DG),
but why would then assume someone is the best of the best if you haven't played with the majority of players. DG, you're randomness seems odder, even moreso here.

Thank you all for your votes, really, I am honored. During my reign as Miss Himalaya, I promise to... argh, I think I need some oxygen.
And bringing up a past game makes them amazing? I've had a few moments in the sun, but that does not make me a great player at all.

Perhaps - but it's a fabulous way to jump in and discuss the game, right as the game starts, instead of 46 rounds of random votes. Of course, there will be participants like Cesspit who fear sticking their toe in the water... mmmm.
And I think it is useful; for instance, RandomActs pointed out that JamesSparrow joined the game soon after opening, which pretty much clears him from being the recruit.
WHAT? Would you ever think, for a minute, that the mafia may recruit someone who is a new iplayer BECAUSE the town will be more likely to kill off the "higher profile" players? Both Sparrow and the gentleman that he replaced were BOTH new, therefore. IMHO, being BETTER choices for the scum to recruit.
I, at this point wouldn't hesitate to vote you. However, the relative speed of the bandwagon is a cause for concern. Your actions do indeed deserve a vote, so I'm going to give it to you, but town, be aware, I may very well unvote if this bandwagon grows too fast. I learned from my last error in the 5 year invitational.
