I sort of am, but it's because of principles. I like day 1 pressure, and day 1 pressure is kind of pointless if you can just say "Nuh-uh, don't wanna." It grinds my gears a bit, so for now I am sticking with you. It's not personal though.

Okay I'm glad I'm not the only one. With people saying this game is vanilla I thought I was missing something and that's why I kept rereading and trying to understand the rules. Thought I was missing something. But I don't see how this game is vanilla at all and so I support a claim from Cbob.

Okay, time to settle down a bit...she said to herself. Cbob, thanks for clearing up the reason you felt this was like vanilla. Totally get all that.

change vote: TonySP

I didn't say you did. I quoted you as saying that there was no flavor to the roles. OMAC moment? Maybe not. But better than voting for me a) for no reason or b) because of my preferred and well-known feelings about for day one.

I have principles too. I'd rather get lynched frankly based on *your* principles making *me* an N1 target.

You've got to read my post in context. Nowhere am I claiming this game is vanilla (again, just looking at the three posted roles proves that wrong and would make it an idiotic scum claim). I brought up vanilla because it shows Ignatz' assertion that D1 voting is "stringing up a rando" isn't true. Vanilla games with plurality voting typically have good D1 pressure and produce info whether or not somebody gets lynched. That's the extent of the comparison, as I've explained a couple of times.

That's your call. I offered you an out, you declined, so I guess we're back to butting heads to see who has the thickest skull.

Please point out where I said this game had no flavor to the roles.

And yes, your vote for me is better than voting you for either of those reasons. But seeing as I've never voted for you, perhaps you should change your vote to somebody who has?

Actually, thinking about motives for voting makes me feel this is going to be very interesting. And I don't know if I would like it as mafia.

Okay, just to be clear this is the post that made me question life in this game.

I'm lost, too. By the end of this, I sense there will be an uprising, during which we shall topple Gfish.

Vive la revolution !

Typically when I go for early pressure, I tend to be mafia.

But, it does appear that Jackie and Cbob will think I'm mafia regardless (spoiler alert, I'm not.), but my character is pretty solid, so that doesn't bother me.

I don't think Cbob is scum, Jackie trying to toss me under a bus with shaky logic (do I check out of games when scum? Yes, when the situation is freaking hopeless and I'm tired of the game... this is DAY ONE and I have relatively no pressure.)

So yeah, I'm leaning to Vote for Jack, but convince me otherwise.

I'm actually getting a handle on what's being said now. Even that sentence by Jack. And the more I understand the more I can see this is going to be difficult for both sides. Voting trends -are- going to mean a lot. So those people not participating should get a lot of encouragement to participate.
