RVS v RQS

[mith]

I can't believe I never posted in this thread, being firmly in the anti-RVS camp. and I was ranting about it long before anyone was talking about an "RQS". (At least as of 2005, I only use votes for putting pressure on whoever I think is most likely to be scum, or whoever is most likely to be scum among those with a realistic chance of being lynched. Voting randomly is dumb. Not that I've played here recently, maybe I would do something crazy if I played now.)

But yeah, otherwise the purpose of any "stage" at the start of the game is to get into a new "informed stage" as quickly as possible. I have a tendency to ask a lot of questions at the beginning of the game (though I wouldn't ever call them random...).
