VOTE: nonny
Early read, this is sus.
Sus, why?
I voted nonny for a reason too, but it was more just tonal. Anything in particular?
I never trust people who very early on throw shade at someone and then claim they don't want to vote them because of the vote count. It looks like a way for scum to test the waters and see if a wagon will stick without actually joining the wagon.
I don't trust that sort of play.
I've already clearly stated that I found it odd but not odd enough to vote. I see how my statement came across as threatening, which it was not intended that way, talking about the vote was more thinking out loud which I should have just kept to myself, apparently.

Would you like to defend yourself or claim a power role?
I don't see why you would want to risk a mislynch day 1, or atleast this early when we still have over 10days until the deadline and not even all the players are active. Closing the day early would not benefit us as town. Also, same reason why claiming power role this early and day one is silly. There is no guaranteed protection and all that would do is get me killed by scum at night, meaning either way I don't make it to day 2. Not a benefit to the town.

This is 5 on day one.
If you hammer, it CANNOT BE UNDONE. Normally intent is given as well before the last vote is cast, as to give everyone a proper chance to check in and say what they want to say. It also gives the player getting lynch a chance to beg for mercy and claim. Quickhammering is usually considered anti-town, especially without a claim from the person getting lynched.
That said, please don't claim unless it is necessary! Hidden information is valuable to town and good to keep away from scum.
And 99.999999% of the time,
DO NOT FAKECLAIM AS TOWN
, even when you're about to get lynched. You can do this all you want as scum, it might even be beneficial. But lying about your role as town when you're about to get lynched is bad. You may think at the time it's good to save yourself, but you might draw out a
counter-claim
from the real powerrole and that is not good for scum to know.
Having fun and keeping a good mentality are also important. If you're getting pushed and voted as town or scum, don't fret! It can be stressful no matter you alignment. This is your chance to prove yourself and keeping a level head will benefit you no matter which side you're playing for. Just remember to stay active (physically, as well!) and check in on the game at least once a day. Activity keeps the game fun and also keeps information coming in, which is good for town. Lurking as either alignment is very bad for your win-condition.
Some alignment specific advice:
Maybe you didn't read his post, but I did. Claiming my role would be a last resort.

Look at your behavior honestly and critically, especially in how it'll appear to both town and scum. It's more important that you let town players know this than it is to win an argument.
I have half a mind to vote nonny cuz of those two posts up there.
I did admit my mistake on not seeing we were on page two, which honestly may have avoided all of this. I did not think I was arguing however, was I coming off as argumentative in my previous posts? Tone is so hard on text based forum, I felt I was explaining my thinking and actions.
