Kasimir Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 1 hour ago, DrakeMarshall said: Vote Tally Kidpen (2): Aeoryi, Kasimir Cash67 (2): TheRavenHasLanded, Wierdo Spark of Hope (2): Aeternum, RoyalBeeMage Wierdo (2): Cash67, Kidpen Eternum (1): Weaver of Lies TheRavenHasLanded (1): Archer Courtesy of tallybot. I think this is right. I will probably do a manual check today just in case. No strong feeling about Spark. If forced, I'm inclined to switch to Wierdo. I go back and forth about how I feel wrt Cash's derp. Agree it is possible E!Cash could misunderstand too but I still kinda like it. The misunderstanding feels genuine and I think pushing to murder a Villager on that basis is a little bold? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeternum Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 Spark of Hope Forgot I had this vote and I just realize that this isn't a long game lol. I'd rather vote with the town on this one because it's unique, so please give your reasoning for why voting Kidpen, Cash, or Weirdo is better, because I don't mind voting any of them as long as we have a fairly general consensus on who we'd like to be haunted by. Not really willing to vote Raven or Spark today. Spark & Raven sound like a tomorrow problem to me rn. Cash, Weirdo, and Kidpen (who I had as town I think?) are much bigger targets imo that seem better picks for today, given that Raven and Spark are off of lack of activity. I'd have to look again at Cash vs Weirdo, and you'd have to sell me on Kidpen tbh. or I'd need to look again. Also Eternum lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasimir Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 My personal Wierdo take is that I normally wouldn't D1 them for what reads like new player sheeping but this D1 being the way it is, I'm less concerned about pushing for what read like a kneejerk retaliatory vote—which falls within the boundaries of a new Elim sort of profile. I am not too willing to go for Cash but this has to do with Cash pushing for a Villager exe on the misunderstanding of the Lover rules, which doesn't feel like a push an Elim intuitively wants to be caught making. The misunderstanding felt genuine. My issue with Kidpen is that this is the second time Kidpen has made a slightly odd comment: A. wincon, B. "we automatically lose" if a Heretic gets exed D1. I shrugged at Kidpen's explanation for the first point (technically correct but uncommon way of thinking for many V imo, fair enough) but the second time makes me squint harder. I'm aware Drake detests slip arguments because it's easy to Ripple effect a player but it's worth making the murderpuppy scream I'm not willing to vote Aet, Archer, TUA, Cash D1. I can probably be persuaded into others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Eternum lol *to be read with sarcasm* So I have one thing to point to in my defense.... Yeah the Me vs Wierdo is simply people were confused about my confusion, and then a train formed. Wierdo hopped on the train because I poke voted them, and because of no reaction from them, I kept it on, to which they responded this: 2 hours ago, Wierdo said: Huh- oh, I was bored and saw you voted me so I just voted you back lol Frankly, if @Wierdo was just bored, that makes me a little less suspicious. I wouldn't put it as an elim read. The question is do we want the chaos of a random tiebreaker vote? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasimir Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 2 minutes ago, Cash67 said: The question is do we want the chaos of a random tiebreaker vote? Let me put it this way. Ties are great until EoD. The bigger a tie, the worse it is because unless you think majority of the tie candidates are Elim, this just implies a bad result for Village and Elim complacency. On re-reading, I've discovered I conflated Wierdo with Weaver and am now considering a cheeky Weaver pivot.

Aeternum Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 Considering that I will be very much asleep at EoD, I'd rather not cause chaos now because I simply won't be able to change my vote during EoD chaos. I'm inclined to think of Weaver as town for now. Why do you think Weaver is an elim? 3 minutes ago, Kasimir said: Kas and Aet not E/E ig wtaf is this chaos Unfortunately not. 4 minutes ago, Kasimir said: I'm not certain, no.

I do remember things pretty well once I read them, though, which is probably why I don't have any problem running a themed game even though it's been a hot minute since I read Warbreaker I bet you could do it, though.

The retaliatory vote I mis-credited to Wierdo was from Weaver.

I feel like a lot of new elims would be too scared to interact with that (newbie e!Aet def wouldn't have said anything about it, but perhaps that's a bad read). Maybe Weaver was pushed by another, more experienced teammate tho. Edit: Ooh also I forgot, but opinion on Aeo? I don't feel it's a vote for today, though.
