Really? Cause it looks like you're trying to be a yellow snow eating, double barrel shotgunning, Mounty ready to shoot two people at once.

FLAGPOLE RUN!

Punisher, I hope you're taking notes. This is how you become the Day 1 lynch: post a lot and voice silly opinions. You don't want to be too silent. It's best to make a few non-committal innocuous posts to blend in. Being neither Special or Evil I am a safe vote for those that don't want to try and randomly hit the Empire on Day 1.

I'll try to make this a two-horse race.

A two TaunTaun(t) race?

Why? Two horses may give some information. Three horses gets us nowhere. Add in that Moliere has already claimed nothing and adding a third horse is just odd.

I'm a horse!

I though these things smelled bad on the outside....

Plus he just removed his vote from one horse in an effort to make a third.

Moliere is voting twice on that list.

DARK SIDE MATH??

I doubt he's voting for himself

I think BB had been inspired by Trump, so much Fake News coming from him.

Okay, I'll wait for BB2112 to update or confirm if that vote tally is correct

no real reason just want to see how this plays out with 3 people having four votes each

I agree it is weird. It's hard to know if he is trying to distract from scoop or from moliere, though.

Or he is evil, while neither of those two are, and he is planting a seed for a future play.

We've got four votes not on the three frontrunners.

We have our targets, which will it be? Moliere, claims he is safe to lynch as a non special. Vorret or Scoop? No claims yet. I just hope we do not expose a good special on day 1. I am currently voting for Scoop, no real reason, and could switch to Vorret.

Why such a narrow focus? For now, I like where my vote sits. I could be talked into voting for you though. The colored sections are interesting.

That train isn't scheduled for today.

We have 9 days left. If we can manage to get someone else to 10 then fine. I have no real suspects right now. Punisher is high on my list but as I said I am willing to give him a pass for a couple of days. Could be a bad play but I am willing to do it to get new blood in these games.

If we do get someone up there and they claim special I think we should be quick to change our vote to Moliere to test him. I don't want to go into night with no lynch. No lynches leads to evil victory as we are accomplishing nothing toward victory.

BTW, I hate this logic. Game mechanics only give us a certain number of misses. While lynching a villager doesn't hurt the power set available immediately, it still shortens the amount of time to play and find the enemies, while giving the baddies a smaller pool from which to cull where a special might be hit.

Sure. I'd say: Lynch Bad Guy>Lynch villager>Force out a special>Lynch a special.

Are we sure he is a powerless villager though. Could be a bad guy who didn't want to claim special right off the bat. We could let him live, but for how long?

Claiming Special right off the bat is a better play for the Empire because a good Special wouldn't want to come out this early in the game to counterclaim.

I agree it is the better play, but it is not the only play that could work.

So let me get this straight remus - you admonish me for opening up the horse race from two to three....as you said "two horses may give us information"....

then you turn around and admonish Lassr for "Why such a narrow focus?"

really?

I like data. We have 8 more days till the deadline. The conversation seems to be humming. So might as well see what happens.
