oh really? please, do explain how voting for someone on the basis of agreeing with iaun's policy vote is not a policy vote.Caboose wrote:Not a policy vote.roflcopter wrote:caboose, why would you rather policy vote/lynch alvinz than pursue what you agree is a legitimate argument in favor of voting ogb?

I have found a better one. Seraphim presenting others' points as his own, labelling a completely normal reaction backtracking, and having general scummy tone is better than wanting players to identity-guess.roflcopter wrote:woof. i don't like korts' post 49. mostly the fact that he's deflating the ogb wagon by removing himself from it.
i can't agree that there's any better place to vote until ogb actually starts participating. the fact that he's obviously following along enough to post useless crap here, and simultaneously has been posting in other threads, but can't seem to bring himself to actually be anything but a useless sack is impeding my ability to vote for anyone but him.Korts wrote:I have found a better one.

Depends on the circumstances.which of these two things benefits the town more?
a 2nd vote for a player based on policy
a 6th vote for a player based on gameplay
Accusing players of things they didn't do (i.e. doing something scummy yourself) is only likely to provoke one kind of reaction--suspicion. You are being thick if you think otherwise.Seraphim wrote:Korts: Of course the argument is bullshit. The question was intentionally loaded to provoke reactions. Plus, if I actually thought that the "backtracking" was scummy, I would have placed my vote there.
In the 14 minutes between this post of yours and the previous one OGB didn't post at all. Do you expect him to post every five minutes, and if not, what was the purpose of this comment?Seraphim wrote:OGB still has yet to post anything of note besides fueling alt speculation which is useless which is why my vote is there.
I'd vote for scummy over anti-town any day of the week.roflcopter wrote:i can't agree that there's any better place to vote until ogb actually starts participating. the fact that he's obviously following along enough to post useless crap here, and simultaneously has been posting in other threads, but can't seem to bring himself to actually be anything but a useless sack is impeding my ability to vote for anyone but him.Korts wrote:I have found a better one.

My vote is not based on out of game reasons. I vote in the hopes that either he will prove himself town or make a scum slip under pressure.roflcopter wrote:caboose, thats still a policy vote. and i've never seen a policy vote actually succeed in applying real pressure to a player, because everyone knows its based on out of game reasons. policy voting players one considers to be bad in the face of perfectly good wagons replete with in game reasons is one of the more egregious forms of avoiding putting your vote anywhere meaningful.
I like how you blame the town for ruining your brilliant trap.Seraphim wrote:Ah, but is it true suspicion or scummy faked suspicion/outrage? There's a difference and that's what I'm aiming for. Useless now, of course. But at this point in the game, it's all about reactions. These early game impressions are important and I want to take full advantage of them.
