The Quorom [BSG Mafia] [TOWN WINS]

The reasons for voting ChaoticCJ are small, I just feel that he has better chance to be mafia than other people by way of some things he posted.

fair enough.

As for game theory:
In a game where people vote for something consecutively and can't change their vote, casting your vote first is normally more powerful since the next voters have to take in account your vote now (for example, the last voter would never vote on someone with no votes at all because it would make no difference, his vote can only decide between the ones the first voters already chose). Voting last gives a false sense of power because you are giving "the last word" about the matter, but since everyone has the same vote power it really doesn't change much.

The power of voting first seems to be like kind of an aggressive and selfish one as it creates somewhat of an obstacle to be overcome for anyone who would for whatever reason vote for you. But it could also be a way to draw people out. The play is potentially good regardless of your or his alignment so it's really solid in that regard. It is also clearly an aggressive play.

For those reasons I voted first and voted who I did.

I see the reasoning for the voting first still not so much reason for the who.

Also, people shouldn't be scared of voting. It's the only power everyone has and it's a strong indicative of your opinions and alignment. Of course there will be wrong lynches and such, but simply not voting is leaving the decision to the people most interested in swaying the votes, the mafia.

Can't the same be said of specifically mafia strategy when it comes pushes for specific players? Like especially in games with limited activity where killing the actives off effectively prolongs the life and chances of success for the mafia. In this game it seems really favorable to mafia play aggressively and sort of seal an early win.

Holding my vote for an hour or so i suppose looking through the thread a bit and such.

EDIT: and waiting for a CJ roleclaim!?
