Not enough letters. Lazy.

Scum are lazy.

Thus.

MEGAVOTE

[popsofctown]

Sigma's post made sense. Vi's didn't.

Lynching someone whose meta you don't know is just extension of "lynch killa 7" logic

MEGAVOTE

I prefer 'elegant'.

Ur-Quan are just about the opposite of "elegant".

Thus.

OMGUS

Lynching someone whose meta you don't know is just extension of "lynch killa 7" logic

Nnnnnnnno, "lynch killa seven" is

all about

knowing k7's meta of lurking through every game.

Question to both of you: Is there anything better you could be doing to find out who's Town or not?

[elvis_knits]

Sigma is not the first person to use the "I'm voting for someone I don't know" reason. I have seen it before. It is not novel. It is not wild and crazy. Haven't you seen it before, Vi?

vote Vi

[popsofctown]

The logic is similar Vi. You lynch killa seven because you can't ever read him (because he lurks). Likewise, lynching someone you don't know makes sense because you have less power to read that player compared to any other player.

[RedCoyote]

sigma: I'm refusing to random vote.
sigma, 5 hours later: Wow, isn't anyone going to pay attention to me?

I'm sorry. If I

unvote

and

vote: sigma

do you think you can forgive me for not jumping on your post?

Do you think that Vi was actually concerned about your vote in post 69? Did Vi's insight greatly influence, like, your reason for speaking out about your vote? You brought up that you were a little quick to pull the trigger, but, just to rephrase the question, what exactly did you expect the town to do or say, especially in such a short period of time?

I'm a little disappointed that my non-random vote hasn't gotten any feedback yet.

The key words being disappointed and yet, in my opinion. "Disappointed" implies that you wanted to catch some attention for it, and that you are not impressed with crypto, Sotty, pops, hito, Pads, rofl, Mae, me, Infinis, and CSL for ignoring your vote. "Yet" implies that you are expecting feedback from players not named hiphop. Is at least this much accurate?

[RayFrost]

Vote: Maemuki

she knows why...

[SpyreX]

I, although meta-blah, understandish what sigma was suggesting. However, this still absolutely baffles me:

I was hoping that someone would take offense at my stated reason and non-random vote me. I don't think that's likely to happen now -- probably should have waited a little longer for that to happen, but I'm feeling impatient.

So, was it "wagon because I don't know" or "lol, reactions"?

[imaginality]

I'm V/LAish this weekend but will try to get a proper post in tomorrow.

Carry on.

[ConfidAnon]

Vote: imaginality

[Energetic Penguin]

Vote:Confid Anon.

Also,

Fos: Sigma

. I am new here and none of you have ever played with me yet you voted for someone who others here have played with.

[Idiotking]

/confirm

Gheh, my apologies for my tardiness, folks, but I won't be able to be active until Sunday.

[sigma]

People are nonrandomly voting for you...
Were you expecting anything at all from hiphop, then, or were you trying to incite general controversy?

I don't understand what you're saying here and I'm pretty sure I'm not reading this properly.
In context with the above quote, this seems like you're looking for a bandwagon on yourself... not hiphop.

They're not randomly voting me for my stated voting reason, which is what I was talking about. Basic goal is to incite some controversy to get this game rolling, yes.

Given that a wagon is going to form, I'd rather it form on someone I don't know. I'm also taking a risk that a wagon would form on me, but I can deal with that.

You brought up that you were a little quick to pull the trigger, but, just to rephrase the question, what exactly did you expect the town to do or say, especially in such a short period of time?

Vi's post did not influence me particularly -- I just had some time to make a post and elected to do so. I expected someone to ask me about my stated reasoning for my vote.

"Disappointed" implies that you wanted to catch some attention for it, and that you are not impressed with crypto, Sotty, pops, hito, Pads, rofl, Mae, me, Infinis, and CSL for ignoring your vote. "Yet" implies that you are expecting feedback from players not named hiphop. Is at least this much accurate?

Yes to all, except feedback from hiphop was expected.

So, was it "wagon because I don't know" or "lol, reactions"?

both, really. reactions get the game going, and wagon because I don't know is a decent strategy, IMO.

I am new here and none of you have ever played with me yet you voted for someone who others here have played with.

Good point. Question: Why did you vote for ConfidAnon?

[ConfidAnon]

I am new here and none of you have ever played with me yet you voted for someone who others here have played with.

sigma, how is this a good point?

[Budja]

Limited time but here's my take from a quick skim.

^QFT.

Sigma initial vote was fine but still semi-random. I don't see why you were expecting much to come of it.

Basic goal is to incite some controversy to get this game rolling, yes.

Preferably not of yourself. Appearing scummy to end the RVS is not the best IMO.

@RC, is your vote implying you find Sigma's actions scummy or just RVS?

[Budja]

QFT directed at Confid's post above BTW.

[Hoopla]

Are we bandwagoning sigma? Okay.

Unvote, vote: sigma

[Energetic Penguin]

I am new here and none of you have ever played with me yet you voted for someone who others here have played with.

Good point. Question: Why did you vote for ConfidAnon?

He voted for someone who just said they weren't gonna be around til sunday and didn't provide a reason for his vote. But know I think about
it I was being a bit hypocritical.

Anyway,

Vote: Hoopola

for blatant bandwagoning and a very yucky avatar.

[Hoopla]

Why are you opposed to bandwagoning?

[RayFrost]

Why are you opposed to Hoopla's avatar?

[popsofctown]

Why aren't you opposed to hoopla's avatar?

I'm not trying to appear scummy. Is that your contention?

sigma, how is this a good point?

If you take my 'wagon someone you don't know' approach as good strategy, then it makes sense that the best target for this is someone who no one knows. that's what I was getting at.

[RayFrost]

Why aren't you opposed to hoopla's avatar?

I asked first.

unvote, vote: popsofctown

for trying to turn the question around!

[Hoopla]

Ray, if I gave you 5 Hoopla Fun Dollars (HF$) to bet on today's lynch, with return odds of 25/1 for everyone. Who would you bet on?

Can I do a three pick for slightly decreased return odds?
