Because jumping to conclusions so early in the game makes people do funny stuff.

How is it that you're already managing to draw conclusions?
Conclusions are a natural result of the flow of the game which begins when the first pixel hits after day 1 begins.

The question is, "What conclusion have I drawn?"

And the answer is, "We shall see."

The head of a 17-year old guy with long hair and a pair of glasses molds out of a wooden wall and whispers to Shadow Knight "It's the DeFoe Manor, you idiot."

Do you think the natural course of a game with 19 people in it (most of whom haven't chimed in yet BTW) warrants drawing conclusions 3 pages into day 1?

Right, so what conclusions have you drawn? Because when you say stuff like:
Lamont_Cranston wrote:2) I like the way she is thinking here and because of that I have joined her on the best vote I can see this early in the game.

Therefore my vote is no longer "random".
It would lead one to believe within a reasonable degree of accuracy that you have A) drawn a conclusion and B) felt justified in your vote.

If you're just full shit and you're really not happy with your vote that's fine too. Just say so. Nobody is going to pester you about a vote change this early in the game.

Being all mysterious about your intentions by repeating my questions is not the right approach, though.

The flow begins from the first post. So, yes.

The conclusion I have drawn is that this is the best place for my vote atm as I have previously stated.


If you're just full shit and you're really not happy with your vote that's fine too. Just say so. Nobody is going to pester you about a vote change this early in the game.
Gee, thanks. We'll see if any shit sticks. Your kindness has been noted.

Thanks for sharing. :wink:

Now you're just showing off your leet dictionary word-looking-up skills.

I don't really see any correlation between that post in anything going on in the game though.
