Where do we stand now? Could someone give me a quick summary of the cases so far please, I'm having a bit of trouble keeping up.
People are voting you mostly because Denul voted you earlier (sucks for you really, there's no defense against cases that rely on you being symped by someone else).
Ruse is voting Trake because Trake came on thread and immediately started pointing fingers. Ruse points out that he ignored Ruse's vote, but then it didn't really have much substance behind the vote so that doesn't seem too bad to me. When Ruse pushed him with an actual argument, he did respond.
I'm voting Trake because I feel like he over-reacted to very little pressure. Also because he started playing into the aggressive townie persona (with some success, note the people who have said that they think he is more likely loudmouthed town than scum etc). Also to a very slight degree for his subtle assumptions that scum would be playing quietly.
Mockra is voting Pallid, I think for being signaled by Ryadd.
I'm now going to change my vote to Kalse. He's coasting, and he's already been called on it. He has posted, and at times when lots of discussion was happening, and hasn't gotten involved with it at all. More than just coasting, he seems to be making an effort to coast, because he's posting jokes etc when there is actual discussion happening at that very moment and lots of stuff for him to comment on, however briefly, which he hasn't done.
Similarly, he's also left a joke vote on me when the game is getting serious, which is slightly scummy as having a vote on at the end of the day gives the slight appearance of contribution.
Remove vote
Vote Kalse
Probably about 10 hours left.
Who said it was a joke vote? You and Ruse are clearly deflecting from Thryll whatever the fuck his name light is by voting for Trake someone who was serious right out of the gate so is so low on my scum list as to almost be PI. You all three need to go.
Thanks Have a nice day.
Maybe I assumed it was a joke vote because you gave absolutely no reasoning for it until now.
If you had a reason for it, why didn't you mention that before now? Real useful.
Not immediately hopping on the first thing to come along on day one is hardly deflecting. There is such a thing as exploring other options, putting pressure elsewhere to draw people out into the game etc.
Personally, I'm not convinced of the symp signal vote idea. Symp signalling votes are hit or miss, and also lynching based on them tends not to give us that much information (oh, guess it was a joke vote then...what now?) unless we go do the fake symp route etc. I've made my opinion on that pretty clear throughout. But I have been willing to actually discuss it. That isn't deflecting, that's just a difference of opinion. Apparently I was also deflection when I pointed out Thyr playing the noob card (something I'm still not very happy with btw, considering he also managed to pull out the absolutely standard defense against symping cases).
At least I was actually here discussing things and contributing, rather than having to be pushed for any sort of participation...
