So anyone else who votes on Dom would either think the same thing or follow your vote based on good faith/trust of your read. Also I don't trust you enough on day 1 to follow your vote, which is why I'm not your vote comes down to nothing but a small meta/tone read. I find it very curios MM voted for Dom.

@MM why did you go with a Dom lynch.

Why would anyone who values their vote low enough to throw it away on buglabush not instead put epi's scumdar to the test on a dom vote? If your fucking vote means so little to you put it here please.

Wow.

@Mac, becasue i know Dom is a valuable player if Epi is wrong. And I have seen him be wrong often enough. I want to hear more from Dom before voting him for someone elses tell.

That implies there are players who aren't valuable if I am wrong about them.

Who are those players and why are they not valuable?

I was not making a sweeping statement about every player, just about Dom. I am not willing to lynch him over a tell you won't discuss. TBH, you are right though, in your semantic jab at my crappy wording. I don't know that I would be willing to vote for anyone based on your reasoning without further explanation. I asked for that, did I miss where you posted it?

That's just it- he's trying t0o hard to be good. Only bad guys try to look good.

It's fishy I tells ya, fishy.

Seriously, I find Dom's posts to be full of bet hedging, like he's unwilling to take a stance on anybody or anything. Even on Day 1, opinions should be forged, even if they are wrong. The areas of conversation Dom has chosen to engage in have been fringe discussions that, again, he doesn't take stances on (apart from a vague "Sounds good to me, then" to Turnip Head's math). When zebra votes nutella for lurking, Dom asks for an explanation about how nutella is lurking, which is an out-of-the-blue question to ask that I find had an obvious answer. Then Dom doesn't follow through with anything on that front ("How does lurking make nutella bad?" or some such push). Didn't happen, and I view that as a soft defense of nutella.

So that's why Dom has my vote.

You have been a little involved, but haven't said much to give me an idea of your perspective on things. Are you civilian aligned? If I claimed you were just trying to look involved, and not really being involved, would you call that a fair assessment? Who would be your biggest suspect right now?

I am catching up when I can, a couple times a day, and posting once per catch-up. So I am not putting a huge amount of effort into getting involved, but I'm also not deliberately holding back. I always find it hard to have many thoughts on Day 1. I suppoooose my biggest suspect is Bullz, sorta, kinda, just for lack of thoughts on other people at this point. But I can't vote for him. I'm a little curious about the Epi/Dom discussion (but Epi is also off the poll and idk if I'd be convinced to vote Dom). I am very confused by Buglabush and might consider a vote there.

nutella wrote:I see I've already gotten a vote for not being around much. I'm just now checking in, I am having quite a busy week.

I think that Bullz is, or is one of the teammates of, one of the people who got info. That means that I think there is more than 1/3 chance that he is bad because I think it is likely that the baddie who got info told their teammates. As Epi points out I find it unlikely that all of the team members would vote for it, I wouldn't doubt that a couple of them would, and that there is therefore a greater chance that Bullz is on a baddie team than that he is a civ or indie.

Unfortunately, of course, I can't vote for him. So I'll have to resort to other Day 1 crap. Like maybe the Mac/Matt thing, but as I already said I think that both of them are fucking around uselessly and I'm kind of indifferent to both.

why does bullz have a more than 1/3 chance of being bad?
this reads as rather hyperbolic to me

That's interesting. Any players in specific? Players who you believe are into Prog more then any of the rest, but voted elsewhere?

I wouldn't mind voting Dom. I'm not a good judge of Epi- I always seem to think he's bad but I feel like Mac is civ so far- he's not reminding me so much of his play in TH anyway. I wouldn't be against a tranq vote either.

I feel like the day 0 prof vote discussion is not productive either... Too many what ifs.

I'm in a hurry right now but I'm putting my vote on Dom for the moment.

I was satisfied with your answer. I moved on. I don't see why that's suspicious.
Why didn't you say you found it suspicious until Epig did?

I think the vote is changeable so I can still change it before deadline if I want.

If you mean between the leading candidates, the two noobs or Dom, I'd say Banana.

In general, not sure yet.

Also, SVS, I think you may have missed my post...

Is this to imply that you suspect me second to Bullz?

Why couldn't you be convinced to vote for Dom? Does he never draw Mafia roles?

What I said about you is from 11:27 this morning. You waited until there was little more than an hour to speak on the subject. You can't expect people to sit around and wait for that sort of thing.

Why is my "case" (apostrophes yours) on you bullshit, and if it is, why don't you advocate for my lynch? If what I'm spewing is bullshit, *I* should be lynched.

I think I'm right, and you're unhappy with how this Day has turned out.

I'll likely be voting in self preservation.
I think Sorsha's vote on me was suspect AF.
