I am still here, though I guess I should try posting a bit more.
also the new IT thing for a lot of players is to pretend they've never played before.

you can go here votefinder.org/players and see games that a person has played in. there were a lot of games before votefinder.org, but this site has been there for years, so you'll know if someone has played in the last 3-4 years.

This case just bugs me as bad. Go back and read it so you see what's being quoted, and not just fiery's comments. It's just really weak. The worst part is "then he unvotes chaos lord when the guy defends himself."

You can change your vote around.

Obviously you don't have to. But if you vote, it might give people something to talk about or consider? Maybe the person you vote will feel they have to post more and defend themself.

Asiina posted:

Isn't that what usually happens? People joke all the time about how if you survive the Day 1 lynch after being a vote leader you're basically immune until the end game.

I think Poque mentioned it in the mafia discussion thread, and there weren't many examples, if any, of it. I don't believe it happens.

I was supposed to be the main example for having "survived the D1 lynch and staying immune" except that I never got more than 2 votes on D1, so it wasn't even a valid case.

So it's not a real thing. It can go either way. But a weak / easy target on D1, will stay the same usually, although obviously things can happen.

Asiina posted:

Multi-day plans almost never go through in my experience, until you're at the end game and setting up for the final group of lynches to win while using night results and power roles from the rest of the game to guide you. It's pretty rare for them to be suggested before that though, since it's an inherently scummy thing to do, so it's not something I often see early at all, nevermind when it doesn't happen.
Are you kidding? The reason I survive in most games is because scum usually won't nightkill me, and they can try to get me lynched every day, so I get to spend the day flailing around, but hey if another target shows up, fine. They can just push me again the next day.

Asiina posted:

I'm not sure how this is refuting my point? I'm saying exactly what you're talking about. If you say "okay we'll kill this person today and then the other person tomorrow" then a lot of the time unless someone is tunneling hard the next day's lynch isn't just simply what was suggested the day before. And why should it be when you now have the flip and night actions to consider? That's why it's scummy and people shouldn't really suggest chain lynches in the first place.
Yeah, I sorta get it. I don't really think.. he'll probably be the distraction/target the next day if he doesn't die today is a chain lynch. But it's semantics. I consider a chain lynch to be more when you say, if Asiina flips <alignment>, then Foo is definitely scum!

Your first post says you want to vote him, but then you agree with Foo that he seems like a D1 newbie and say that he's not a good target. I'm confused by your opinion.
Noobs often seem like scum, because they just aren't very good.

So he might be.. but since he's a noob, he gets a break.
