Bugsy Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) *is afraid to post* That said, I feel like these votes, as they currently stand, are risky. By voting like this, we're letting the elims hide their votes more easily. They can just 'forget' to switch off of someone, or switch on to someone else for a 2 vote swing. I dislike this, and feel like it's dangerous to allow, so I plan to vote on anyone who doesn't revoke a vote made in that vote chain unless they're able to provide reasoning.

Magestar Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Lopen. I'm not really suspicious of you. I was just following the joke, and agree with Bugsy that we probably shouldn't leave the votes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phattemer Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 While I see why you may have those concerns, it seems to me that anyone who switched their vote at the last minute would pretty blatantly stand out, and furthermore that claiming something is dangerous early on is a common eliminator move who hope to gain commendations for recognizing the threat. This "vote train" is actually both a method to see who is actively reading the thread and to draw out people's opinions on something innocent like it. With that in mind, I'll do as bugsy asks and withdraw from the sequence in which I voted for doc12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jondesu Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Yeah, I don't see how it's actually dangerous, and that sounds like trying to gain trust. Sorry, Bugsy, but you asked for this. Bartimaeus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah anyway chance that we will hit elim on first day not very big. But if elims have at least one rioter leaving 1 vote on everyone will just let them choose whom they want to see dead.

As such, I can't really blame you for arguing that same point. At the same time, I'd have to be a pretty stupid elim to pull that gambit after I just called it out last game. I agree that a last minute change could stand out, but it wouldn't even have to be last minute to cause a 2 vote swing, and that argument holds no weight against the fact that someone could 'forget' and leave their vote on the person they chained on. I also don't expect any commendations (although I would appreciate them ). In fact, I'd even settle for hostility/suspicion sans death 43 minutes ago, phattemer said: This "vote train" is actually both a method to see who is actively reading the thread and to draw out people's opinions on something innocent like it. You claim it's a method to see who's active and what people think of it. I've told you what I think of it, and you know I'm active enough to respond to it. It's succeeded in its intent. I see no reason I should be lynched for merely reacting to it, something you expected to happen. I also still disagree that it's innocent. There is a danger, however slight, and I truly feel that people should withdraw from it. 18 minutes ago, Jondesu said: Yeah, I don't see how it's actually dangerous, and that sounds like trying to gain trust. Sorry, Bugsy, but you asked for this. Bartimaeus I suppose I did, didn't I? This wasn't exactly what I had in mind That said, I'm mildly more suspicious of you. You've been quick to go with the crowd, and I know my alignment, so to me it looks like you're trying to kill a villager. It's not much of an increase in suspension, mind you, but it's there.

phattemer Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) To be fair, while I was aware of vote manipulation, it wasn't at the forefront of my mind while I made my previous point. I'll go ahead and withdraw my vote on bugsy and instead vote for Jondesu, who seemed awfully eager to hop on any bandwagon Also, since the Elims could and probably do have at least one vote manipulator, any lynch we do needs to have at least some margin, or they can pick and choose who dies.

That's a fair point I hadn't considered on the vote manips, but I also never expected that vote train would stand the entire time. It was just fun and a way to see who was participating, and I knew there would be plenty of people who eventually changed their votes. On the bandwagon, I'm thoroughly guilty. I'm not planning to try to do much analysis or to put a bunch of time into this game, just go with my gut instead, so you'll see more of that than I usually do. Comes from being in two other games that require a fair time commitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the GM is targetable in this one, but I suppose you can try. In all seriousness, coinshots won't be the most useful this game because they don't reveal alignment. I'd refrain from attacking N1 unless you have any suspicions, because it won't get us any information like it usually does. Or, alternately, follow straw's advice, and we can see what happens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conquestor Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Of course I'm going to help everyone kill Joe, not. This just looks like a good way to stop the first day lynch entirely, so, I am actually going to keep my vote on Silverblade5. What happens to all discussion? It disappears! This sounds very spikey to me. Even though Hissure wanted to taste the body of a God, he did not want to die. After all, what is the point of tasting a God if you can't tell anyone about it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
