I did this one game where I just moved my vote down the line to people who hadn't posted yet.

I don't remember how well it worked or what my alignment was though...

This is all you have to say?

Hi, FZ!

It's all I had time to say. I'd hope to have an idea of where to vote by now, but I pulled extra hours at work yesterday and today. :/

I was surprised how easily he changed his vote off rox and seemed to do so following a trend of people doing the same.

Okay, what do you think of llama so far?

I'm not sure yet. He's pinged me a bit, but I feel I've been extra bad about reading him anymore.

What do you think of him?

Something about his reactions seems too cheerful or merry, as he calls it, to feel genuine. But I know he gets lynched often on day 1, so I wonder if it's one of those instances

Good point re: baddies on D1. Never thought of it that way before.

Regarding this, yeah, I don't know. I haven't seen enough actual baddie hunting from him yet, but I'm not sure as to his alignment really at all right now. I wouldn't say his behavior so far is out of character for his personality, so I'm hesitant to let him seeming too careless as indicative of baddieness.

I always think that's a bad thing and then everyone jumps on me for thinking its bad to miss a vote. Isn't it? I wanted to make sure I got my vote in because I wasn't sure if I would be too busy to do so later. Sorry I didn't have any wonderfully thought out logic behind it. As far as ninja goes idk I'm seeing it as an I want to post something and be involved in the conversation post rather than anything crazy. I mean no I don't expect anyone to ping or do anything obviously baddie the first day but there's always that possibility I guess.

She only has more posts bc of ot posts.

You know, I'm not sure. I certainly don't like it. But I don't know whether it's just not understanding her logic and she's civvie, or whether she's a baddie trying to find a way to save her teammate or just needed to come up with a reason to vote someone.

What?

And I didn't get Snow Dog's answer either

I'm not sure how I seem eager to please. I'm vocal in expressing agreement and disagreement. God forbid I agree with you because you and I generally see eye to eye on matters (something I believe we've both noted).

What do you mean by "explains things"? I'm confused.

Yes...

....and no!

What is this supposed to mean?

Why do I not seem genuine? Or is that not what you were saying?

I'm not sure I liked Llama's reasons. I would be okay with the "I don't want to die", but the fact that he felt the need to add a joke there, makes me think he's worried about how he's going to appear, so he throws in a joke

I always throw in a joke when I am having fun. It is because I am merry.

Why are people voting so early? And for hardly any reasoning behind their votes? I see "to make them talk," "because I feel like it," and "as a placeholder." Seems like an easy way to hide your bad vote if you're bad. I'll wait a bit before I make my decision since we have until tomorrow, but these votes ping me something awful.

I am glad to play with people who know me - its nice srsly <3

I hope that zinger wasn't meant for me :P I'm kidding.

Personally, I don't get all the early voting. To me, all it does is garner reactions that are allowed to be humorous because no one can really take them serious, hence it helps the baddies blend it.

limki: why do you need a vote on the board? Did I miss something? Do we not have 48 hours?

I don't either, frankly. I missed playing with you over here, FZ.

But it seems the trend in games anymore to have changeable votes (personally, I don't like them, but that's just my preference). I used changeable votes in Doctor Who, especially early on in the game, to vote the person that currently was highest on my , and whether I kept the vote on them was usually specified in my posts.

I don't feel comfortable ending the day period with my Rox vote, but I do think it was odd she was like "WTF with the early votes?" then turned around and made one herself. I just wanted to make her and others aware of that. It also is an easier way to start discussion; players are less apt to ignore suspicions if you've accompanied a vote with them.

I presume something better will come up and I'll change it, but if I don't or if I miss the vote, then at least I have a vote of some ping registered.

It's really a case of "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em". Normally I would never vote this early, personally. Can't speak for why everyone else is voting the way they are.

Made and llama is there a particular reason for your vote placement - so early and without so much as have an apple?

I'm a decisive person.

BWT doesn't want to play? Let him have his wish.

Also, Made and I voted for the same car on Day 0, so I feel like we need to play similarly to each other.

Grading 50+ poorly written research papers really takes a toll on my sanity. And poorly written doesn't even begin to describe the horror Hence, mafia break.

What are the papers about?

Social problems, like drug abuse or racial profiling or teen pregnancy. Some are really good (some as in 5 out of almost 60). Most are adequate or just below par. Far too many are either atrociously written or blatantly plagiarized. And they've had four months to write and revise them.

I feel like my brain is leaking out of my ears. But I'm also done for the day. Thank goodness.

I sympathise Been there...
