If being a vig is not related to alignment in a discernible way then I would not be opposed everyone with a vig claiming so we can keep them in mind.

I think this is a good idea.

As far as I can tell vigs are unrelated to alignment since it just says "people" raided the ship's armory and five people got blades.

That being said I do not think this is a good idea. It's not exactly IT RUINS THE SURPRISE but it's sort of it ruins the surprise? Also scum can wait until a breakpoint while never claiming vig and then just stab some mans when it's too late for us to stop it. If multiple scum have knives.

If we also institute #vigvote (one pound sign so as to bypass the rule on fake day actions), this lets us actually use vigs to the town's benefit and hold them accountable for it.

I think this is a good idea.

what do you think this accomplishes

vigs aren't in addition to a day's dunk, they replace a day's dunk

if you can get a majority vote on someone, you just dunk them, you don't vig them, there's no point.

- Surprises are meant to be ruined when death is on the line.
- There are 5 vigs. If we all decide to do this and only 3 people claim we can know those other 2 are probably scum who were going to do that late-minute-stabbing-to-win-the-game thing regardless.
- Vigs kill townies, this is a universal fact of mafia. (unless they're me: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3467291&userid=61359)
If we make them publicly accountable this at least let's us be responsible rather than some two-bit loser with a gun.

This is not at all what you are doing though.

- Somber votes Gridlocked for making a bad vote.
- You post at Somber for making a bad vote on Gridlock, emphasizing that Gridlocked was just so new gosh golly and that makes Somber's vote especially bad. But you didn't call him scum and you didn't vote for him.
- I say "hey you're not actually concerned about Somber, you're just defending Gridlocked."
- You call me scum "getting pissy" and "jumping down your throat."

Imagine four vigilantes on the side of a cliff. The first one kills the second one, the second one kills the third one, the third one kills the fourth one, and the fourth one is modkilled for being Jetlam.

I agree that the vote was not very good. I disagree that it was "exceptionally bad." My behavior makes sense from the perspective of "Somber's vote was worse than Grid's" and "why the gently caress does Ecco care so much about this"

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR LUTR INSTEAD OF ME:
- Because I am town :sax:
- Because she scummy.

WHY IS LUTR SCUMMY?
- Her posting re: Somber makes no sense. It feels less like she actually thinks Somber made a scummy vote and more like she's trying to buddy up to a newer player.
- When I posted that maybe that's why she was doing it, she snapped and insta-voted for me (while never voting for somber!!). She then doubles down on what is clearly a preemptive OMGUS vote.
- And now she says to Somber "I don't actually disagree with you about Gridlocked's vote" which is total nonsense, if she thought Gridlocked made an exceptionally scummy vote then why is she going after Somber for voting for it?? It's bonkers.

I've been trying to give her the benefit of the doubt since she posted in the discussion thread that she is on cold medicine but push is coming to shove.

(People should also vote TT because ecco gambit and since he's tied right now I'm going to leave it there but I'll be checking the thread a lot since I have nothing going on today.)

I mean exceptionally in the sense of, it stood out. Your play doesn't make any sense from the perspective of "I think Somber made a bad vote." Why didn't you pursue it? Why didn't you vote for him? Why did you drop it as soon as you received even the lightest pushback?
