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

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.

You are so paranoid!

EVERY action in this game requires the use of a bullet, it doesn't mean that action is inimical or powerful though. And what does that have to do with being Mayor or Judge anyway? Even if I had uber-scarey abilities, how does that make me any different a Judge or Mayor to anyone else?

It means you won't die.

personal update: i'm alive, my right leg feels like 1 giant bruise, doesn't bend very well, and I can only take stairs 1 at a time (as opposed to 2.5 i'm used to).

Since i'm not at a PC all day, and now it'll take me even longer to get to one, I may not be too active. I won't be voting untill we have the candidates tell us their judge/lynch plans.

ok, off to actually do work now.

CONSTANT VIGILANCE!. Also this is mafia, it pays to be paranoid.

It's less so that you're using actions, but that you're showing them on thread through the bullet number going down. Makes it seem like you're trying to intimidate people, and I don't trust that. And it doesn't have much to do with mayor, but I'd rather have someone who doesn't want to be mayor be mayor rather than someone who is making deals with people. Makes me trust them more.

I'm game to vote Lio, because he expressly said he didn't want to be mayor, and not only does that make me trust him a bit more in terms of doing what the thread wants, but seeing his reaction if he logs on to see he's mayor will be priceless

Not quite, Bek Okhan has a [0] die so likely can't vote even if they wanted to. 8 more alts need to agree on our current leader Fanderay or 9 on Merrid or Rashan, or 10 on anyone else. Every alt that has voted at last check were displaying enough Bullets to remove and vote elsewhere.

So you trust less someone who is showing you they are doing actions, and you trust more those who are hiding from you the fact that they're doing actions.

Right, that's some good logic there :D

I see we are already getting serious.
I am read up and I honestly don't like people getting votes without announcing their judge first.

Part of the agreement between merrid and I is that we
would also select each other as judges as well so you do
know who we are electing already.

Or, he could be saying that to try and get voted in. XP is welcome for anyone so pretty much anyone can be relied on to want it. Hell, I want XP but I don't want the likely betrayal of my Judge to come back and bite me.

And who, as Judge, have you selected to be lynched?

Day 1 and people are already making me start theorizing in circles? That was fast. I want XP too, and getting elected would be nice, but the risks even with the rewards, so not being elected wouldn't bother me either.

This Mayor/Judge stuff is really hurting my brain meats.

Alright, I think the idea that we wait until everyone tells us their Judge nominations, and then, in turn, that we wait for all those nominations to tell us their lynch nominations is just a way to make the day's timer die. It would require the stars lining up perfectly for everyone to be online at a time that allows them to respond in time for everyone to see and lay down a vote before day times out.

LoL, got some bright ones in this game! :D

Anyway, for what it's worth, if I'm elected Mayor, I'm going to make Merrid the Judge. If I'm made the Judge, I'm lynching Liosan. I have no big reasoning behind either one, just gut feelings.

I think Merrid has performed a bunch of off screen action, and I'd like to see if any of that action is giving him information that would be useful to my cause (i.e. will it get someone from the teams I'm looking to kill off lynched).

As for Liosan, his blatant denial of wanting to be mayor has me a little suspicious, for the same reason that Denul thinks we should be voting for him. I think he's trying to make it seem like he doesn't want it in hopes that we'll actually give it to him. He strikes me as dangerous.

But, it's Day 1, I have absolutely no idea if I'm right, wrong, or half right?! But I thought I'd just put it out there, so everyone knows.
