I actually have a momentum-based reason for not voting and I think it's ultimately more helpful to the town's cause if I build momentum.

Particularly since I (predictably) have no good reads on anybody this early on (especially since this is my first game with the SA crowd) and my vote's not going to be very informed or useful right now anyway.

If it not true, it's a lie, which is s scummy. If it is true, it's an anti town role.

Well then, it sounds like you should be voting me up.

Or are you worried about how guilty you'll look when you led the vote charge on a townie?

Yeah, this case screams scum bullshit to me. There are a million legit town roles that could have a reason for not voting early.

But this bothers me a little more. I'm a town heel (Kane). I think PTM is a scum heel who's worried that all of the heels are scum. If he was a town heel, he'd know that there are town heels, probably not the only one, and therefore a heel claim isn't necessarily something to be worried about. But if all the scum are heels, they would be worried about claiming a heel.

##vote PTM

Don't really have a strong preference between these two, they both look pretty bad to me for D1.

[/quote]kane was a babyface about as much as he was a heel in the attitude era fyi

most all wrestlers switched alignment at some point between late 97 and early 01 (Austin's probably the only exception) so its unlikely we can use that to weed out scum

Even Austin's not an exception. (It's true! It's true!)

They tried to turn him heel, anyway. It didn't really "take", but they still tried it. It led to

so it wasn't a total loss.

If it was actually a voting restriction, sure, but there's a difference between a voting restriction and something such as "you get momentum for being the hammer."

Mister Perky

The restriction is self-imposed, btw.

I have three ways to gain momentum.

1 pt if I have a vote logged at the end of the day
2 pts if I don't vote at all during a day phase
3 pts if my vote is part of a majority vote that eliminates a scum

the third option would be great but I don't have much confidence in pulling that off in the first day phase of my first game. I'm aiming for the second option.

So to clarify, I *CAN* vote today, I just think I can be of greater benefit to the town later if I don't. Particularly since I have to call my shot beforehand (wrt the 3 momentum options) so, now, if I cast a vote today, I get 0 momentum, even my vote contributes to eliminating a scum.

This is not at all as bad as it seemed at first. I guess I'm scum though for making obvious statements about why I thought another player's role seemed not good for town. I appreciate the support :thumbsup:

I like to give the accused a chance for rebuttal before casting a vote. If the response doesn't meet my standard for townie-ness then I vote. In this case your response has resolved the issue of how anti-town it potentially was.
