And if you click on the vote image it will take you to the votefinder site which, depending on the mod, will also show unvotes as well.

merk, are you voting for SamV or Samfu?

Votetracker has it as SamV, but since you are agreeing with PMom, I'm assuming you mean Samfu?

When talking about a Sam this game could everyone please remember to add V or fu at the end of it for clarity?

That is helpful for votefinder but not necessary since a human reviews the game.

The second post is only accurate insofar as everyone follows the rules for voting.

I will produce a count later this evening!

Yeah I know that votefinder isn't the official tally for your games, but either way adding V or fu to the end of Sam would surely help you anyway. Plus it removes the chance for confusion for the other players.

Why Merk? You don't reference him at all in your effort posts outside of an offhand comment of someone unvoting him and that still wasn't directed to Merk specifically.

Additionally, I just went through TMM's post history and there is almost nothing there, despite bragging about being the 'top poster.'

It's possible to switch names or powers around. Just because something is often named one way doesn't mean that it can't be changed for flavor purposes.

I don't think the LJ votes are good because she is new to this site. Sure, she has played Mafia before and seems to be well versed in searching for scum, but it also seems rude to not give her at least until D2 to find her footing within this community.

I doubt I would still be playing if everyone voted me out on D1 of my very first game. Now granted that was a little different cause I hadn't ever played Mafia before, but the principle is the same: give the new person a day before you really go all out on them (even if they are scum).

where he's mafia dadding. Seriously, so much mafia dadding. This is just the beginning.

and then his lurker callout seems really forced. He mentions his top poster status, either directly or indirectly, several times, as if he is checking constantly to make sure he has the most posts, despite the fact that there is almost literally zero scumhunting.

and then stuff like this:

Where he has clearly paid attention to your votes on Sam but he has nothing to say about it, and no opinions whatsoever.

It's a positive read on a player, an extra connection that can be used once one of us flips. Creating those is what D1 is all about.

Okay I am dredging this back up as I reread but jesus this is bad.

If anyone out there tried to use a "this post is okay!" post to do... anything conclusive, it would be so utterly worthless.

Rarity you slid off my radar somehow but your play around this time is lighting up my sonar something fierce.

Gamerofthegame: Oct 28, 2010; Could at least flip one or two, maybe.

I can see the argument for TMM, but on the flipside in the same breathe it looks like he's waiting for content to jump on. Instead of just being passive he's trying to get people to post and get poo poo going, constantly referencing post counts like a tosser to criticize people into :justpost:

Which isn't really unusual D1, tbh.

Anything is likely to lead town in the wrong direction. We have zero information so the chances are we're lynching town today. It seems like you're trying to make excuses to avoid getting lynched for something that got you lynched in the past.

If you read the tmm post he is quoting, rarity seems to be defending setup spec while saying it is still a lynchable offense.

Also preemptively excusing his town lynch.

Diqnol is looking pretty Scummy to me. His posturing seems like posturing and he's avoided actually backing up his poaitions with content, appealing to lame excuses.

TMM please share your reads to the class with what content you have!!!

This is pretty much spot on about me. I tend to post a lot of crap on D1 (I try to focus and not post as much poo poo after D1) because I'm a messenger and spend the majority of my day in my car alone with my phone. So I tend to treat D1 as a time to shoot the poo poo and just try to get people to post in the thread, even if it doesn't really have to do with the game.

And for clarification, while my lurker poke was maybe a bit premature, I stand behind it. I just wanted those people to come in and make a post or two. I didn't care that chaos or anarc came in and just made and post about being busy, I was just happy to see something from them. I'm happy QPQ came in and made some effort posts even though he ended up voting for me.

Also the line about being a posting superstar was meant to be a joke and I thought it should have been clear because I know I've posted plenty of crap already. Next time I'll just add a :v:

to make it obvious that I'm not taking myself seriously.

And Gamer, since you asked nicely I will indeed give you some reads, but I'll have to do it later tonight when I'm on my computer. Is that reasonable?

I voted him because ~I'd fight you and you would lose but I don't wanna~ is just so bad in every way. He's disappeared, and I agree that it could very well be to draw heat away. It is kinda working, because in his absence I am starting to swing rarity. Not that diqnol is becoming less scummy, rarity is just eclipsing him.
