Llama isn't making it into a great lead and

[just]

wants to use it as a way to get reactions.

[FlyingFoxBat]

also FlyingFoxBat, why are you voting for yourself?

I voted for myself in the random vote stage of the game. I am at L- 5 at this point, so there is no need to unvote myself just yet.

[skitzer]

I usually unvote after the first few votecounts (or in this case, the first few), but I'm pretty comfortable with my vote.

[Gimbo]

FOS:Dattebayo

just a bad hunch

[Cavebear with a toothache]

Unvote.

Seems random phase is over, goody.

'Scummy' behaviour is often to try and make the metaphorical mountain out of a molehill, to exxagerate the importance of an insignificant thing in order to convince the town to lynch an innocent.

Yep, that seems to fit your vote on LlamaFluff pretty good.

Vote: Gojira

My reasoning here is that he's jumping on something that occurs in every game (as far as I'm aware)

Just a minor point; it doesn't. At least not by everyone (there are probably someone randomly voting in pretty much every game except maybe some small one). Some people get jumpy when people don't though (case in point: my first game on the site), so it's commonly done. Plus as I said before, can be useful to hide info, esp. after a night start.

QFT. I think the people jumping on the Llamawagon look a lot scummier than Llama himself at this point.

[Slaine Hayes]

I wholeheartedly agree with Corinthian, this situation has been taken completely out of context.

*shrug* As I said, the art's distinguishing what's genuine and what's scum. I'm just following up on my initial lead. If I'm convinced otherwise or see something better, I'll shift my focus.

Interesting. I'll go and do some reading of other games - could you let us know what game you refer to, so I can go and have a look? I assumed that random voting was both common and commonly accepted, but if I'm proved wrong...

[Gojira]

Oh, and;

EBWOP:
Llama isn't making it into a great lead and

[just]

wants to use it as a way to get reactions.

Fairly sure that's what I'm trying to do. Putting a second vote on at 7 to lynch is not 'omg he's definitely scum', it's more indicating where my suspicions lie, possibly creating a bit of pressure as well shou.ld people agree with me and add a couple more.

[Slaine Hayes]

Gimbo, there must be some reason for your "hunch". Could you explain where your hunch came from?

[LlamaFluff]

I usually unvote after the first few votecounts (or in this case, the first few), but I'm pretty comfortable with my vote.

Care to elaborate?

First off, Dattebayo basically has it right. It is something that I feel strongly about, but it also is a great way to obtain reactions from people, much like FFB is doing with his selfvote.

Im not too sure these bolded parts line up too well. You first say you aren’t calling me a high suspect, then you continue by saying that you seem to want people to vote me. So my question to you: Am I scum? Why?

[Gojira]

You first say you aren’t calling me a high suspect, then you continue by saying that you seem to want people to vote me. So my question to you: Am I scum? Why?

Perhaps I could have been clearer, there: I'm not saying more people should vote you. I'm simply saying that a second vote won't create a huge amount of pressure on its own.

To answer your question; maybe. I'm by no means convinced, but I'm not saying you're not, either. I'm finding the overreaction a tad suspicious, and am following through on that with a vote, primarily as a means of quantifiably indicating my suspicion.

[LlamaFluff]

. I'm simply saying that a second vote won't create a huge amount of pressure on its own.

I don't think it's neccesarily pro-town intentions... 'Scummy' behaviour is often to try and make the metaphorical mountain out of a molehill, to exxagerate the importance of an insignificant thing in order to convince the town to lynch an innocent... I'm just following up on my initial lead. .. you're making far too much of a big deal out of it, I think…

To me this does not really sound like the words of someone who doesnt want support in their vote. Even a vote with no explaination signifies strong feeling towards a player, especially once we are out of the random stage which I belive your vote was the start of.

My inital vote as accomplished what it was intended to though at this point so I will

unvote

and

FoS Gojira and Gimbo

@Gimbo - You have been seemingly active but still far under the radar to me. Post 44 you start suspecting me and FFB which I find a bit interesting since you jump on both the people trying to stimulate discussion with odd moves, then in 54 you start suspecting Dattebayo for a hunch.

What are your opinions on me, FFB and Dattebayo now? And I want more then a hunch.

[Slaine Hayes]

It is interesting to note that the one who started this argument, #44, hasn't posted his thoughts. Maybe he just hasn't been on the site, or maybe he is letting us battle it out.

Unvote

FoS:#44

Most of the players are inactive actually, I would like to hear everyone's opinions on the game so far.

No, it is common and commonly accepted to randomly vote, but that doesn't stop people from not doing it. Every now and then I see someone publically not randomly voting. Anyway, link to my newbie game where I get a "non-random" vote for not randomly voting. It was a bit more complicated than that, but on the surface, that's what happened. I can't think of any other game off the top of my head, but they shouldn't be that hard to find.

I wouldn't worry too much about inactivity in this game, what with bolts of lightning striking lurkers and that. Anyway, it's a bit early in the game to form solid opinions, and pretty much only the Gojira-Llamafluff thing stands out as interesting to me.

I feel like you are all fluff and no content. Its like the 3 of you are playing your little game within this game. But its not substantiated and this is how I play, I give out alot of FoSes, don't freak over it, if you do, its gonna be more than just a FoS, lol, it's gonna be my vote you're getting.

[skitzer]

My vote is on LlamaFluff because I do feel like he overreacted a bit. And I don't like how Slaine Hayes and Corinthian thought the people on the "llamawagon" are scummy, when there is only two people.

I never said anything about thinking people on the llamawagon were scummy..... On the contrary, I think they aren't.

I wholeheartedly agree with Corinthian, this situation has been taken completely out of context.

Then what about this?

I was just saying all the parties involved got just a little overexcited and that it was taken out of context, doesn't mean anyone is scummy.

[skitzer]

OK...

unvote, UnFoS: Corinthian

[Phoebus]

It will be a while yet while I can actually get to this game.
sorry.

[Gimbo]

Hi, I'm scum, kill me now.
