You realise that that is how a baseless wagon is built, right? On that note, why aren't you trying to build a baseless wagon?

Random voting tends to follow a slightly different path then baseless wagoning.
On that note, why aren't you trying to build a baseless wagon?

On a side note, how serious were you about your comment to SB?

I was completely serious. It looks like false reasoning for a distancing vote, as I said before.

Vote Nikanor
Good. Now, are you trying to build a baseless wagon, or do you have some other reason for voting me?

Somewhere in between. There was no clear wagon leader, but since you are openly saying that you see a scumtell on someone, why arent you persuing the wagon at all?

It's a conditional scumtell. If one of Snow_Bunny or dramonic flips scum, I'm going to look back at that 'random' vote. For now, I'll ignore it, though.

Zwet is the only player that I recognize (even though I've never played with him) so
Vote: Zwet

What. There's like a total of 50 posts, and 15 that should be even counted as relevant. That comment was a bit overzealous, no?

Also Nikanor, what seems fake about Snow's vote?

*Blowing someone's joke-vote out of proportion pretty much always happens in the RVS. While this is a null-tell in most situations, the discussion that comes from it (and possibly a bandwagon) is informative.

EBWOP: I considered that you might be joking, but seeing how you're the most serious person in the game so far I wasn't sure.

The fact that she's in a game with H_H and myself atm makes her statement that she only recognises dramonic false.

Yeah, it was a joke, haha. Considering the thread was just opened today, I don't think we can conclusively call anyone a lurker just yet.

True. Too bad, you were replaced in one of them, and killed N1 (by me :twisted: ) in other. In fact, I was pretty sure, you'll vote me. ;]

vote: Blastinus

@Nik-69: In this case, the lack thereof. If it isn't plainly obvious, despite two goddamned Yankees fans in this house, I haven't voted either. That's probably a big tip-off that I don't want to play that random voting game today.

On multiple counts, Red Sox Nation isn't playing any games anymore.

As it happens, I'm also a Yankees fan. I'm not a very serious one, but in my family, saying you're a Red Sox fan is declaring yourself a traitor to everyone. So, yeah.

I don't see any reason why random voting someone you've played with before has anything wrong with it. And seriously, Col killed me in one of them.
