Wow, I did not read the rules closely enough before to realize we can only vote once a day. That's wild. I don't even know what to do.

Bona, did you read the setup before making this vote?

Positive: it will give us a lock place for discussion. Our discussion after our votes would help us tomorrow.

Negative: It might be of some benefit to scum... who know more than we do.

Postive: it might help our idol carrier to hide.

Negative: Everyone never agrees to these things.
Negative: once everyone's voted, the next thing that "happens" is the nightkill
well other than the idol potentially being played
but that discourages discussion by the same logic that discussion is discouraged during the night
better idea:
%%Vote Dargorygel
also, third
I think that town analysis may actually benefit from this single vote rule. Or, at least, it'll be a wash. There's a lot to parse in how, why and when a person votes in this setup.

Hiya Red

Wadda you think of the one vote thing? I fear it will hurt analysis, and diminish talking points.
Let's kickstart the overanalyzing

"Hiya Red" is very casual, which seems like buddying.

"the one vote thing" is also very casual and... weirdly vague. "thing"?

there's a big gap where it looks like darg edited out some stuff. The odd thing about this is, the rest of the post looks casual and underdeveloped. The quick, casual style of writing does not fit logically with editing out a portion of it. Unless, of course, darg is intentionally trying to seem casual as part of a buddying scheme

also, who writes "diminish" and "Wadda you think" in the same post? Other than if you were going for two different vibes in your post, then edited out a bunch of it.

finally, the entire thing sort of... passively pushes at the enemy being the rules, and not the mafia

PS: Editing a post is normally NAI. Editing a seemingly casual post is what I find suspicious

TLDR: After some overanalyzing, I scumread dargorygel
In this hypothetical scum!darg world, do you think Red is more likely his teammate or town?

I don't know what i think... mostly no, because everyone won't do it. But I can see some value later.

Dip is kinda jumping to conclusions... basically he analyzed me because I wrote something. While uber annoying, it doesn't ping scum for me.

Waiting to hear of bona did read the setup.

What does it mean if he did or didn't read it, and voted?

In fact, while ostensibly such a impetuous choice might perhaps be ruled as arising from a malevolent disposition, my position remains favorable of bona's "diminishing" station.

Interesting.
By that logic, would an arbitrarily small postcap, say, 10 posts, also give more information, because more thought would be put into each post?
Moreover, did you or did you not see bona's vote before you wrote this post?

Incident #2 of dargorygel editing out stuff from posts that are written in a casual tone
Also, you forgot to say "Wadda" and "diminish"
