Well here's something I want to discuss, if anyone is interested. At the point of this post a few have agreed that voting for nobody might be a good idea but I had said I didn't think it was a good idea and had put JL on my watch list.
Now JL is hedging off the idea as Z and Mad has reacted negatively to it.
I brought up the idea for a vote for nobody as something to discuss.
I have always been one against it. I am willing to have an open mind and discuss it. I see the reasons not to.
This games dynamics are very different.
A lynching of the president means the game is over. What we will learn is that the game is over.
I am unsure how valuable a list on day one is, or who we can even make a list. It seems the people who are on the hot seat are those that post.
Right now, everyone is on my list as suspects.
I also would like more input on why or why not to vote for nobody from some of the other players. I really thought Ogre would think it was a good idea, but maybe when he wanted to do it in the past when he was mafia.
Here JL admits he thought Ogre would like the idea as Ogre liked it while he was Mafia? To me this indicates JL knows this idea may appeal to fellow Rebels.
I like the 50% chance of hitting rebels.
I do not like the 5% chance of ending the game with a hit on the president.
According to these numbers, there's a 10X better chance of hitting rebel, yet JL is afraid for the president.
I am not even sayinh I am for it, I want to talk about it.
At this stage of the game, talking is the only way to learn.
Sounds like he wants to see how many supporters he can get yet leaving a back door open in case everything goes south.
Now JL is hedging off the idea as Z and Mad has reacted negatively to it.
Mad, thanks for your input. I am not for voting for nobody, I wanted to talk about it. I casted a vote, plus I have always been against voting for nobody. Like I have said, this game is a little different.
I agree that voting for nobody is not good. I just wanted to discus it.
I am not going to worry about the whole invisible thing. I am also not going to worry too much if people are "lurking". I know I have this thread or web site up while at work and I am doing other things. I am sure others do also. I also have a few people from here that I do PM with, so I do not worry about the whole judgemax way of finding people. The power roles need to PM, so her method could have killed a power role, if I remember right, she did have the detective as mafia.
My biggest concern is people not voting. I really think that we, as a country, should make voting mandatory. As a Canadain person once said something like: "If you choose not to choose, you still have made a choice".
Trying to sound patriotic?
This whole "laying low" thing does not help us.
As an American person once said, "Vote early, Vote often".
plantling, I agree that I am not trustworthy.
Is this some sort of admission?
NO ONE IN THIS GAME IS TRUSTWORTHY.
I almost tricked you and mee-mee. ALMOST. Well almost does not count in this game.
I did not propose a no-vote. I wanted to talk about it. This game is about talking about things.
Also, I do not think "my buddy" HN thought a no-vote was a good idea. I also do not think he would think being my buddy was a good idea. As far as this game goes, there are no buddies.
Not sure if HN is your buddy but I have a feeling you do have buddies of the rebellious sort. Wonder if any of them will come out to defend you?
1) I do not see how I am posting any different. Also each game I have played I have had different roles. I was playing different in the WW game, but I was hit early.
Is this another slip up? Seems JL plays differently when having differerent roles and played differently in WW game as an innocent.
2) I agree my list is not much of a list. I wanted to share it as my starting point. I thought it was fairly helpful at this point.
