If I might ask, why do people trust merrid, besides Jalan's explanation?

I don't trust him. But not knowing his alignment, i'm not williing taking out a strong role and potentially crippling my own faction (not to mention this kind of Day 1 shenanigans usually set off culture hunts).

[2]


That's a good point, but there is the classic "it's more likely he's not in my faction" train of thought. If no one else wants to go after merrid going after a low poster (through voting a mayor who will pick a judge who will lynch a low poster) is fine with me.

I don't want to vote fanderay because she said she'd make merrid judge, and Merrid's blatant power use (multiple bullets, not just 1 as I did) is either calculated intimidation or just intimidating coincidentally. I'd rather go for rashan out of the 3 choices.

[2]



And if you elect Merrid Mayor the only power he has is to elect a Judge and if he isn't lying that would be me and you are not my lynch canidate.

More reason to vote for somebody so there is a lynch each day to minimize a powerful judge. If you elect Merrid Mayor I did not select you for a lynch so you are safe.

Why are we only considering the three who already have votes? we have 14 unassigned votes remaining.

Then suggest someone else but if there are too many choices then we won't get anyone elected and we will run into getting a super powerful judge in the later stages of the game. If you vote Merrid mayor you are also not my lynch choice.

Not you. I'm not going to flat out say who it is. Do I look like I have a death wish? If I don't get elected as a Judge then that person won't be lynched which means that they can target me for attacks. Why would I open myself up for that kind of attention? Let's just say that if the people I told on thread that I won't lynch then then vote for Merrid to be mayor and you will be safe.

I went back and checked out why Fanderay got any Mayor votes, and here's what I found:

View PostFanderay, on 21 August 2013 - 05:33 PM, said:

@ Cast

Merrid's bullets are declining because he is using his die for actions and this is what I missed earlier as to who else was using actions already.

So Merrid. I'll vote for you if you vote for me for Mayor. With votes costing bullets you won't see a lot of switching going around and we could be the "Leading canidates" I'd also select you as my judge if I get elected and you can elect me as judge if you want too.

How is that for the usual Day one nonsense?

Seems a little too much like "Hey, I'm pretending it doesn't matter to me if I get elected Mayor, but I'm going to make a deal that makes me one of the more likely candidates for a Day 1 Mayor vote, cause then it's more convenient"

It just seems like he's trying to play it off as if it's no big deal, but he has since continued steering the thread towards voting him Mayor.

So, you're just going to not play Mafia then? Like, the whole point is to make a case for a lynch, no? Why would it matter who your target is? It would be the same as voting to lynch them in a normal game.

actually, he's steering the thread towards making Merrid mayor, and him a judge.

his would-be honesty is refreshing. would be nice to know if i'm his target or not, though

About the whole Merrid/Fanderay fiasco:

I think Merrid and Fanderay have off-thread cumms and are trying to steer us in a way that would give them both Experience.
I think we should consider the very high possibility of us giving another faction a good amount of advantage by voting one of them Mayor.
I wanted to vote Rashan before but when he said his judge would be Merrid I changed my mind.

Yeah, I kind of wish I could change my Judge choice from Merrid to someone else now too. I will certainly not be placing my vote on either Fanderay or Merrid, and Rashan's out for the same reason as Demelain said, I'm out cause my Judge choice is locked on Merrid, so who else we have as a potential candidate?

I didn't know who to choose as Judge so my Judge choice was because of Meta, so I'm out too. (I didn't think I would be chosen Mayor and just wanted to submit)

I do not have off-thead comms with Fanderay, nor do I have any idea who it is/what faction they are in. But yes, I do indeed want XP. But more than that, I just want to be able to say that I've been Mayor/Judge that one time (and that I probably royally fucked it up).
