Old man, with hair as virile as mine, your attempts at shaming me are as poorly thought out as your topiary garden.

With hair as virile as yours one has to wonder, what are you compensating for? And, bitch PUH-LEASE, my garden is a thing of beauty!

You see these sleeves? Geisha in each one.

I wouldn't soil my yaks' night soil by allowing it to be spread in your topiary garden.

Oh thank God the twitching has finally stopped

Right? Two weeks is too long, we need to set a new rule that mandates a game every single week

Yeah I actually had to do work while I was at work. It was quite a shocking experience

Isn't that terrible? Sometimes I find that I'd prefer to not even work at all!

Trying to drum up some conversation and get some reactions. It's pretty fucking quiet in here even by day 1 standards.

[Path-Shaper]

More than one person has asked, so I will make this crystal clear:

Avatars are random and irrelevant to characters or roles.

This is a faction game, there are no scum. Stop trying to confuse the thread.

Without ST playing this game, we are left with a quiet thread.

I share Omtose's worries that we're headed for a Day 1 no lynch. There are still about 2 hours left before it gets to the point of the day where almost no one usually posts because they're either gone to bed, or they're busy at work (myself included in that).

Not saying we should blindly rush into a lynch in that 2 hours, just that it's disappointing to see so little action so far, even for a Day 1.

[Kedeviss]

Of course, it also worries me that because there are currently 3 votes on me for noncases, the rest of the thread are just going to pile onto the easier train. And if the lynch doesn't happen tomorrow, we get to spend a day WIFOMing about the failed lynch.

[Desra]

If we are in a faction game, on Day 1 when nobody knows their team mates (nominally), why would we be overly concerned about the missed lynch?

I mean, I could be persuaded to vote, but I don;t want to blindly lynch a potential ally.

Am I wrong here?

[Kalse]

I would hypothesize that the tone and rate of posting represents the unknowable state of this game. Not only is it a faction game, but there is also the conspicuous absence of an identifiable threat like scum in an M&P. Everyone is roled, so that target for identification is moot. We could play "discuss the game mechanics" but that route inevitably leads to the lynch of the person who seems like they have a good grasp on the game or someone who seems to spend too much time talking about a juicy role.

At this point, I wonder about those who are talkative and confident. Have they not thought about these above issues or, even more probable, do they know or have something that compels them to go on fishing expeditions, acting confused that the thread is so quiet.

Two players stand out for me in this respect:
Fener with trying to condense the game into scum (who make lists) vs town
and
Desra with comments on how quiet everyone has been without being particularly contributive themself

I could buy Fener joking around, but Desra rubs me the wrong way.

Vote Desra

No, you're not wrong, really... but if there aren't any NKs (not very likely to be the case, but you never know) during Night 1, then we start Day 2 exactly where we ended Day 1, which is nowhere. You gotta have some death to start a culture hunt.

Are you volunteering yourself?

Hey everyone, we got ourselves a volunteer!

I seriously doubt Shin would put together a game with no lethal actions in it. And with the meta restrictions being so relaxed, some vig is bound to blow their lid early if they can.
