Shiryu - Richard Chessler (Boss - pro town) shot Night 1


Night 1- Post 0 (June 30)
Day 1- Post 1 (July 5)

Shiryu - Richard Chessler (Boss - pro town) shot Night 1

Just so I'm clear, is our 'Day' when the Fight Club is open, or closed? Because it sounds like Richard was shot at night, but that may not be the same as our 'Night' phase.

Day and night are normal, the text was just flavor.

Hm, just one death.

for having a two-word name.

Hello everyone. because he didn't vote me. And that's pretty suspicious.

Hi everyone, I'm not random voting, yay!!!!!!

Hello, me neither. for signing up twelfth.

Its in alphabetical order.

If its your first day at fight club you have to vote.

for not random voting

Stunning logic you got there clarinet-boy.

But I'm more suspicious of Sineish's "I'm not random voting, except then I will" post.

It wasn't random at all. I deliberately chose the last person on the list. My mistake was to assume that it was in order of signup and not alphabetical. Still, I stick by my vote.

Can't argue with that. .

Sineish, you say you had reason for your vote and it wasn't random. Didn't you notice names were in alphabetical order? And if you noticed, why didn't you check from the queue thread for the real order of signups?

Wait, when did warpdragon say that?

Also, Olio, you're not some crazy neutral role like last game right?

Post #8, above. I missed it the first time too.

I'm really not best pleased with Sineish's non-random vote, since he's claiming spurious reasoning for it; what difference does the order in which spork signed up have on whether or not he's scum? You do know roles are randomized here, right?

Mr. Flay, I am a flute-boy, not a clarinet-boy.

Wait, wait, wait, Sineish. You say it wasn't random, you just chose the last name on the list? You just contradicted yourself. Unless you are saying you gained some sort of info during the night. Or some type of restriction? If you just chose the last name on the list because it was the last name on the list, then it was random.

As far as I can tell, that's what he did. He just needed "someone" to vote and voted for the last person on the list. I've seen it before, I think.

Yes, I just chose the last person on the list for no other reason than spork was last. I suppose that could be thought of as random and the effect I intended is the same as if I had just voted randomly, but I conciously made the choice of who I voted for, and I therefore do not see it as being a random choice.

To answer Drummer, my vote was not based on any information I received during the night, if indeed I even got any, and neither was it due to any restriction.

I am aware that roles are random, and that he is last on the list has no bearing at all on whether he is scum or not. But then again, neither does any choice have any bearing on whether someone is scum. Possibly it wasn't a good idea to make it so obvious that I was not random voting, but I did try to give a reason, albeit that I made a mistake with the signup order, which I intended to indicate that my choice was not based on any information I had.

I have read many posts by experienced players in this forum stating claiming not to like random voting on day one and others saying that they never random vote, yet I guess there is a critical mass of support for it, so I will try and do so in future.

I think you misunderstand me. I am *not* a random voting Nazi; I don't even like it all that much as a concept anymore. I think it's silly when everyone crafts their first vote so that everyone ends up with "Player - 1 (OtherPlayer)" in the vote count. All that does is delay the real start of the game, and MAYBE give you some data later on on who voted/didn't vote for whom in the initial stages (scum are famous for using random votes as cover for their buddies).

What I am objecting to is the fact that you said you were NOT random voting, which I presumed to mean that your vote later that post would not be random either, and then proceeded to vote for someone based on an out-of-game factor. Aelyn's vote for Commodore Amazing having two words in his name was random, and he said so. You voted based on when someone signed into the game, and continue to claim that that is not 'random'. Furthermore you say you have no information leading you to vote for that person, and continue to stick with a vote that you yourself admit has no basis in-game.

My vote stays. I don't know yet whether you're just using Bad Logic as a newbie, or Crap Logic to cover for a buddy later, but I don't like it. If you turn up lynched as town, then we'll have data based on who voted you, as well.

Oh, my mistake.

It's fine, Flay. I'll recover.

This is gonna be a long game.

Drummer wrote:This is gonna be a long game.

Not if we hurry up and vote out Aelyn!!!!... I got nothing.

I'll be gone for a couple of days. Don't vote me out until I get back, please.

for making us wait to get the game started.
As for the present discussion, I think ithere's nothing to worry about: "random" votes are rarely really random, but they're often a way to get the game started by voting somebody for a silly reason (see my vote for an example).

Oh, I'll be in Paris till the 14th, but I should be able to log in from time to time.

So far I'm not convinced by Sineish's explanation. I still think his vote is random vote trying to be non-random. At the moment it's the scummiest we got in my opinion.


We are still missing spork and KingEnigma. , maybe give them a playful nudge?
