It looks like some sort of bizzarro-Spiderman to me. Like he got sick of his old red-and-blue costume and Cruella De Vil gave him fashion tips.

Unvote: caffeinatedcows
Vote: ashmite84


One random vote is fine, but it is unnecessary to make two, whether somebody's complaining about not being random voted or not.

Unvote: StrangerCoug, Vote: strife220


I think the voting against the avatar-challenged is very suspicious, like they're using that excuse for a cover...It's almost like they're working together or something...OH WAIT.

My secret plan's been revealed already, Oh no!

Omni and Ty, I think you'll find it useful if you do get avatars. When the content gets more plentiful, it becomes a lot easier to re-read the thread when have avatars to scan through.

Yes, avatar helps you stand out from the crowd, it makes you more distinguishable and stuff.

Unless.... you don't want to stand out, but instead prefer to go unnoticed and lay low. Which is very scummy. It's what scum does! DUNN DUNN DUNN...

I'm keeping an eye on you avatar-less folks.

Hey I don't like the amount of votes ashmite84 is getting, someone unvote him before things go too far because we really don't want to lynch a random person in the joke vote phase.

I think the joke vote phase ends when a serious vote is made.

I agree with you, hence I will
unvote deffie
and whack a major
fos
on Ty (serious this time). Put me at L-2 in your first post of the game with no reason offered? This is actually the quickest I've ever seen someone be at L-2. Your either an opportunistic scum hoping for a quicklynch or you've made a newbie mistake. You see, what you've just done is very, very suspicious.

I'm going to
Unvote: ashmite84
as a precaution for right now. Not thinking before acting gets you nowhere, and ashmite84's two random votes are nothing compared to the L-2 vote on him without a reason.

Vote: Ty

from randomness,
Vote: Ty
partially for the uncalled for L-2, but more-so for the lack of unvoting or explaining.

Ty: "Oh my" is all you have to say?

Hmm Ty is looking a bit suspicious at the moment, then again so many just jumped on the badwagon there maybe they're in kahootz.

First of all, I haven't pointed out scummy behavior from anyone yet. I just warned everyone not to get too carried away and accidentally drop the hammer in ashmite84. That was me expressing concern about his high vote count, not pointing a finger at anyone in particular.

And the thing about avatars was a joke. I'm sorry if it seemed like I was serious about the idea that not having one might be a scummy tactic, but I was just messing around. I wanted to get all the dumb quips out of my chest at the beginning because there's no room for stuff like that later on in the game.

Second of all, I'm not jumping on the Ty bandwagon for the same reasons I bought up the situation with ashmite86: I don't want us to rush to a lynch. The game is still young. Lynching Ty on page two is definitely uncalled for. What he did may seem suspicious to you, but it could also easily be just an honest mistake, a careless townie rather than a really sloppy mafia goon who casually attempts to get a townie lynched in the joke vote phase and hopes nobody notices his sneaky maneuver.

It's not a very good strategy, is it?

I mean, I know it's a newbie game so maybe a certain level of under-estimating other people's tactics is in place, but I'm at least going to wait for a while before casting my vote so the accused here can say something other than "oh my" which is a very ambiguous statement but not necessarily scummy.

Also
unvote
my previous joke vote because we're obviously past that phase now.

That probably sums it up best, I was just random voting so I voted for the person that voted me.

Also, could someone tell me what L-2 is?

Thanks, and I also got an avatar.

L-2 is when a player is two votes away from getting lynched, L-1 when they're one vote away from being lynched etc.

I feel inclined to give Ty a pass for now, but I'll be watching you. I've seen similar things before to his explanation. Also the avatar thing is / was a clear joke. Some vote alphabetically, by roll of dice, self-vote, all kinds of things for the random stage.
In a permanent state of Limited Access. I'll understand if I'm replaced in my current games.

Ty: Pulling the 'oops, didn't realize' claim is usually followed up by an unvote. Else your 'oops' doesn't really hold ground.
