Why did you place an invalid vote for Ghug and then move off him the moment your mistake was pointed out?

Vote early, vote often!

Hm, that's true.

I don't have a too good grasp of the game yet, so it's just vibey, but I want to see more of

##vote Red Neurax

Why Red Neurax?

I think I've answered this already. I don't want to repeat myself, but as a synopsis, Red just posted two things that were only connected to a small part that was said, a very partial comment, without responding to other things, hasn't put down a greeting, a thought or a stance.

Does that make Red mafia? Not necessarily. Does it deserve pressure? Of course it does.

i dont believe in sharing my views this early because i dont really have much information to go off of and just saying randoom things is not very effective

fair point about sharing when you don't have much information. It's however very beneficial for town to talk about stuff, to generate information.

Like, what do you think about damo here, coming in after a long period, placing an invalid vote on ghug, then switch to dip after he was informed about it?

Or what are your thoughts about Dream getting informed about the game, and those involved? Did you maybe notice something in particular?

Do you have any questions for others?

[Kakarroto]

I would also like to ask you, DreamTrawler, how did you feel getting the game explained to you? Anything special you've noticed?

What do you think about the game overall. Is it fast/slow, do you think people are chatty or more withdrawn? Any surprised from the last game you've seen?

What are your thoughts about Will, and his stance to not vote for you for at least D3?

I think I understand the basics of the game. Still not super clear on D1 strategy - word count and such seem like an interesting tool but not anything concrete. I think interrogating lurkers makes sense but I have no idea how each player normally acts.

I think saying he won’t vote for me until D3 is… interesting. By D3 no one should be safe. Perhaps he’s trying to earn some goodwill (ha) from me? I appreciate one day of not being voted, but I don’t expect anything beyond that from anyone.

On that note, is it worth speculating who the Mafia will kill? Or is that just going to draw suspicion/influence their decisions?

Actually, the more I think about it the more suspicious the thing with Will is. I took it simply as a kindness to a new player, but since multiple people have called attention to it I am analyzing it from a strategic perspective.

If Will is town, he is a) shooting himself in the foot by ruling out a player who could very well be Mafia and b) putting a big target on his back. I say this because, I know that I am town - and the Mafia also know I am town. Therefore having one town member refuse to vote for another is a big disadvantage to them and they would have incentive to kill Will early.

If Will is Mafia, then it was a ploy to not get me to vote for him out of thanks perhaps? But that is a little obvious. Of course, not voting for me means nothing in that case as I can be killed off in a night phase.

But also maybe it was just a way of being nice.

Is it my voting? I am very open to changing my vote as I said.

I heavily discourage you of speculating over the mafia kill before it happens, the target of it is a good indicator of what mafia is thinking. The earliest you should hypothesize about the target, or share your thoughts, is probably a "End of Night" post - something like a 'last will' or your 'last thoughts' just when the night turns into the day again, so a second or two before the full hour (maybe ten seconds is enough) (well it should be fine enough in the last minute) so that the mafia can't react to that information.

Thanks for your answers
