A Song of Ice and Mafia TOWN WINS

[MENTION=1087]Shidoshi[/MENTION]; Your reasonings for the previous day really were not that great, although admittedly there was not much to go off of. I'm not really going to take the emotional parts into account, since people either get emotional, crazy, or role reveal when they are about to be lynched. I get why you initially voted for me, since I really don't post anything initially. I also get why you jumped on Olsi when Verrkol voted for him since you wanted to get rid of either me or him. But your reasoning that we where repeating/agreeing or posting flavor really were not that great. There is not much to post the first couple of hours, and without knowing the GoT lore it would be hard to see all the hints from flavor. I voted for TheBirds to to see if he had anything else to say, because he usually does notice a few things but stays silent till the later days, which really does not help the rest of us. I was not expecting him to be voted off as you had the majority vote at that time and there was only a couple hours left. I didn't vote for you because I had already explained my reasons for voting for TheBirds and I didn't think switching my vote to you was a good idea because I didn't think you were mafia. If I had switched my vote, then it is likely you would have died, with a 3:2 vote. Hyper's vote makes sense if he thought theBirds was trying to claim as the onion knight when he was. That would have still left you with the earlier votes, but Luv voted for thebirds because of inactiveness, which wasn't a really good reason. I see why you immediately jumped on that, but honestly, if luv had not voted for thebirds, you yourself would be dead. I was kind of torn weather to vote for Luv or you, but it really didn't look like your read my posts yesterday

Niernen's position of not voting for me "even though he has no better candidates" has me dying to lynch him too, but I'm going with Olsi who's first important vote was an OMGUS.

It really looked like you wanted me to vote for you, so I shall for now [vote]Shidoshi;. This way I'm not

just commenting on a lot of things without committing to votes

. Luv would be my next candidate, as Mas said, I don't think we should give him too much room.

[MENTION=2462]MetaSeraphim[/MENTION]; You still here? Anything happen to you last night? I get you may not be interested to play if you are just a vanilla townie, but are you keeping up with what is going on?


And while typing this a whole new page pops up Missed the whole thing with Y0shi, reading that now.


Something (maybe not entirely relevant right now) that I noticed is most of the first votes are "to get people to talk". This usually causes the person voted against to come in and defend themselves, when the may not have posted much or anything otherwise. Of course, if they don't respond then it does looks suspicious. But wouldn't that go against the whole "don't vote off inactives" everyone was preaching about yesterday? Voting to get someone to talk is pretty similar to voting for someone because they are inactive. And then removing the vote if they just come and say hi, its voting for the sake of voting and accomplishes nothing. And to point out, but if a townie has a useful power, wouldn't they try to be a bit more active and invested in the game? While a power helps, if you stay silent we don't know what you are doing and it looks like you are not involved.
