Shea, if you want to play this again, my answer will be the same as last time. I will claim only if I think it's necessary.

Vas (you don't mind if I call you that, do you? What would prefer I abrieviate your name to, if not that?) Please anwer the following questions:

1) What do you think a random vote achieves, and why?

2) What do you think of the interactions between me, korts, and izzy?

3) What do you perceive as optimum scum strategy given a large normal setting on day one?

4) What is the purpose of the random voting stage?

5) Who is your favorite postmodern thinker?

Thank you.

Vote Izzy

Fun bandwagon is fun. Though it's no fun if you guys keep unvoting all the fricking time.

Shea needs to develop some threats with teeth.

[Thestatusquo]

There's no reason to assume my threats don't have teeth, just because I choose to bite at a later date.

[Thestatusquo]

Let's bandwagon.

damn mod not making my vote count

vote: izzy

Meh... I was busy. Don't make me destroy you.

[Shanba]

There's no reason to assume my threats don't have teeth, just because I choose to bite at a later date.

I was more referring to the fact that I don't think there are ten players on the site, let alone in the game, who would help you lynch korts if he didn't claim. Hence, empty threat.

Thank you.

Vas is my preferred nickname. I'd sign myself up as Vas if I could. But VasudeVa is too cool. Props if anyone knows which book I got his name from.

1) Succumb newscum to pressure. Other than that, reading material for later. I especially like using the early actions of players to read their replacements.

2) Bandwagon-y.

3) Hide in large bandwagons. Too good to resist. Will be watching for that.

4) see 1.

5) Myself. Following other postmodern thinkers defeats the whole postmodernism part.

Kindly address Shea's questions.

[Korts]

Nevermind.

Re: 1) and your dismissive response to me, how do you expect to achieve any kind of valuable reaction if your method of choosing a vote is public and known to be completely harmless in terms of threat of lynching?

Re: 3) what is your opinion of the Izzy wagon?

Re: 2) your description of events doesn't address any of the relevant interactions, as far as I can see. Please explain.

1.) I wanted to see if someone is up for a ride in my wagon. If not then I'll be unvoting later. Wanted to keep it truly random. Looking at names and picking the first one that sticks to your mind is not random.

3) I like it. Will participate if it gets heated. Otherwise, I don't see a need for a page 3-5 probable mislynch. My vote means it's 1 vote away from an accidental/scumhammer. Don't want that.

2) There is not much to go on anyway. We're on page 2. Relax bro. I doubt you'll be able to make walls of text in this stage.

I count six votes. That's, with 20 players, 5 away from a lynch, not 2.

Korts: do you think voting with dice is scummy, or just anti-town?

[Korts]

VasudeVa: voting randomly is more unhelpful than voting arbitrarily, because it gives the others no insight into your train of thought, thus robbing the game of valuable discussion starters. This ties in with my response to Shanba: voting with dice is anti-town and not directly scummy, but by proxy, taking away the initial kick the discussion needs, it can be construed as such.

2) you haven't explained your response. Break it down for me, and don't give me page numbers and "relax bro" bullshit. Mafia is srs bsns.

Vote: Korts

I am quite capable of leading my own questioning, and I do not appreciate you trying to steer the direction it's going in.

Woot 2nd page non random votes.

Shanba, who said anything about lynching? I said die.

Vas's answers to MY questions, and not Kort's I will address when I am not taking a shit.
