You never have to random vote, in fact that is completely counter-productive. You should always have a reason for your vote, period. I voted for a pretty ridiculous reason, but it was a reason none-the-less. I will actually defend my vote, as well. The discussion that stems from votes with reason, are much more informative than votes that are cast from "random" reasons. I'd much rather see a defense of "Oh, well, my reasoning was flawed so I changed my opinion" rather than "It was just a random vote" which leaves it at that. Voting for less-likely reasons are one thing, but you should never vote for something completely ridiculous. That just makes the game take longer to start.Hinduragi wrote:Vote: Star for working too long. Btw, for whoever is wondering, this is RVS. (Random Voting Stage) We'll randomly vote to get discussion going so we can move into the actual game.
Actually, in many cases you learn more from a town lynch than you do from lynching scum. Obviously lynching scum is our main priority, but it's not always such a horrendous thing to mislynch, as it can result in leading us in the right direction. Putting that reasoning aside, I'm curious why you bothered to post that in the first place? If you even ignore the falseness about it and look at it from the standpoint you were posting it from, wouldn't that be a given? The "tone" of that statement has a false ring to it.Hinduragi wrote:Don't mislynch anyone, though.
That statement just seems wrong. Previously in your post you make it appear that you are trying to help, by explaining things then follow it up with passing questions off on the IC. While, the IC is here to help newer players, you specifically took on a "teaching" role immediately before doing so. You know what that says to me? You wanted to start off the game winning some townie points by trying to help, then pass the buck off to the IC so he could take on the actual role of IC, that he is assigned in this game. I'm not making a big thing out of this, because it is far too early to tell, but simple things like being overly eager to help the newer players on how to play, can be a scum tell. I have seen this, and have personally done it, on many occasions.Hinduragi wrote:Our IC will answer questions you guys have about the game and its mechanics when he is back.
