It's better to start off with a night phase so that you don't have to worry about randomly killing an innocent just to get through the phase quicker.

Also, on replacing me, I will be active and try to help the Village, it is just that it's better than lynching the doc, right? You don't want to end the first day phase to find that you've killed off one of the most important assets to the Village. Also, I signed up so that I can improve my clue-solving skills (there are clues, right?).

No clues. That's an
extremely
rare practice on this site.

1. from all games I have been apart of on this site, I have yet to see first day round end quickly.
2. Are you purposely trying to role fish?
3. If it is a night phase first, all people with night actions get 1 step ahead, yet you are garunteed a dead villager by the morning.

Starting with a night phase is like advocating a no lynch first day..... you start a person down with little to no information about any of the players...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that sounds awful.
As the last rays of sunlight fade, one killer chases another through the tangled madness of the city.
A flash of steel announces the presence of his quarry.
The stage is set.
The night explodes.

I'm.... not getting at anything. Its all right there. Starting with a night phase is giving scum a free shot at somebody without getting any usable information.

I just think that sounds like an awful idea.

Why, what do you think I'm getting at?

have to say, i think all this talk about night phases/the rvs etc is a bit of a distraction from scum hunting.

I'm not entirely sure that RVS is over -- I don't really think it's a "stage" per se that one explicitly moves into and out of.

However, my thoughts on the game thus far: It's moving well, if a bit slowly. More discussion means more things to look at and to dissect.

It's a bit early to be calling scumteams and all, if that's what you're getting at. I don't really even have concrete reads on anyone; you're probably going to be obnoxious, though. (Don't take it personally.)

Okay, there must be some kind of glitch in the site, because it's saying that I posted my last post five hours before I actually did, and it's put it in the middle of the page rather than at the bottom where it should be. So, this is a test post.

7) What do
you
think of the RVS?
1) I'm having a blast.

2) Chocolate, all the way. Although sometimes, a vanilla milkshake is quite good.

3) I'm up to something over 30 here, with a handful on another site, and none in real life.

4) Yes. I firmly believe that Mafia can be won, regardless of your alignment, without having to resort to outright lies.

5) Math. I'm a natural klutz.

6) Lurking isn't always a tell, but it's a good place to start searching for scum, as they tend to lurk more frequently than town.

7) I think I've covered that.

Still moving IRL. There is more useless crap at my old apartment than is dreamt of in your philosophy.

^^
noticed the failures all around

Bvoight, your votes are coming across as your only reason ((a safe reason at that)) to get people to talk. Have you not come up with anything else other than using the same excuse ((written differently each time)). Instead of asking where people are and using your vote as leverage to get people to speak up, let's hear your thoughts on what players are doing, instead of what players are not doing.
