But these ones don't count, right?

You still have to vote in Red, correct?

Text

Yes, but then how do you indicate who you are willing to vote on for even a facsimile of pressure if you can't remotely use red text until you actually vote?

Anyway Archer has said that the difference between orange and red is a philosophical issue he won't clarify so I guess we'd better leave off there  

I am considering just highlighting potential votes in the most disgusting colours to compensate tbhhhh

I will still ghost vote y'all if u seem too pacifistic to me!

People bold things all the time. How is picking a different colour all that different from a different formatting choice? You don't have to do it if you don't want to, I just struggle to see why you think it's such an imposition when the point is to have something in formatting different enough that people can see it by scanning.

P.S. Did you hear about the automerge? If you type anything within 15 minutes of your OG and there's no reply, it automerges. Be careful!

confused, when i saw your post about that I thought it applied to double posting? does it apply to any post you make getting merged with a previous post?

Yeah it's a double-posting situation (i.e. if there is no reply between your post and your last), but it happens to all PMs and to all posts as long as there's no reply to your last post. It does make editing faster since you can pre-empt it, but it also means you need to anticipate how post content can change and flag it, that's all.

No one's stopping you if you want to. I just don't want to because my wrist injury is killing me and - without mentioning potentially ongoing games - this means I'm going to take the easy out when I can.

Nah, it’s NAI. Forgetting the rules isn’t indicative of anything here. He beat me to this correction though.

Edited to add:

Propose people use orange to vote and purple to retract for the moment if it doesn't count as too red-ish for @Ookla the Paradigm

Seconded^ for those who have votes left at least :p.

I guess you could still vote people in orange as an expression of reads or something  

Or use like some purple yellow blue rainbow combo just to be different idk

I fully intend to continue indicating who I'd vote if I could, it just doesn't feel the saaaaame

I miss my ability to radiate killing intent with a single vote and I haven't even finished C1 of this game yet ;-;

It’s not even that bad though, like one letter is moved around

Booooo Aeoryi

I just know some time during this game I’m gonna forget and accidentally use red, it’s bound to happen eventually.

I'm curious you don't think it's weird Illwei is this fast to draw an alignment inference.

I just read it as "probably illwei stuff idk how they normally are" and moved on imo

Hi there, hello, TKN-OtB here, back with another post, remember to post, vote, and blast that upvote button to the moon guys. Like through the roof guys. You got that? Okay on with the post.

So my only observation so far, elims have double voting power, yes? So we need to be worrying about exlo a bit earlier than normal. On second thought, it's not too bad, maybe only a turn before there would be exlo anyways, but something to keep in mind regardless.

A bit more so if Village pulls a me and locks votes early enough to be unable to avoid a hammer.

Instinctively dislike this post because of the second paragraph. I can’t tell if it’s an intentional attempt at a derp clear? Both factions get one double vote/one vote negation. 
 

So far looking at aeori and tkn

WHY

serious question

maybe this is just something I as a player do not understand but in this game especially, how is self voting not, by definition, gamethrowing???

and this opens up a whole can of worms like now I want to clear you but that feels extremely scummy and supportive of this action which is literally never a good decision

such an overreaction 

which is an ironic statement for me to make I know but this should not be a thing that happens anymore

Agree with Aeoryi here ig, didn’t feel out of character to me

I kind of agree with Stick re:TKN but am not sure.

Curious, why’d you self vote? Selfing goes against your wincon on either team. And ideally a villager should save their double vote/vote negation for organic reevaluations and/or hammer situations. 
 

 

I think illwei’s read on kas is fine and NAI.

I've explained why self voting is a good thing in my (worst) game Here, where I've linked the comment.

Uh... it's a thing I do occasionally. Mat can tell you the backstory.
