so, well DemonOverlord and zorclex voted Vecna, but zorclex switched his vote on me a bit later. Brain already asked D.O. so yeah ... need to wait for the answer.

thats... literally a reaction test. was that a detestable word I am not allowed to use or something? furthermore its an idiotic thing to do because if he is town, he is encouraging a wagon to gather on himself which "doesnt help town" think about it.

@Kak O shit. I didn't think of that. Then I guess he's scum b/c only scum self vote, and then we vote for him b/c he's scum?

@Ezio but with this logic we already have 2 scums, moscow and ragingIke ...

@Kak. Less logic. More convincing ppl to vote Chaqa. Unless the logic gets ppl to vote Chaqa. Then it's ok.

@Kakarroto: Ah! Sollten wir nur auf deutsch sprechen?
I jokevoted Vecna. I don't really have any scumreads at the moment.

@BB: I've just heard that it's not good town play to reveal a reaction test that early.

MF is just voting me because it's his new meta. I let him get to me in the discord game and now he's using it as an excuse to drive me into the ground in anything we are both a part of.

I haven't read shit from the first 4+ pages, just searched for my name. I'm playing FFXV. I'll catch up at work tomorrow. Don't expect gamechanging revelations from me in this game.
brainbomb (290 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
Zorclex, To give you an analogy lets say I tell someone I have a surprise for them, and then I tell them its a movie. Well the surprise is kinda diminished isnt it?

Basically Ike is telling us that his method of scum hunting is to employ a strategic self vote in hopes mafia will fall into a secret trap he has.

The problem with this is that when you tell mafia this blatantly what exactly are you hoping to accomplish?
Kakarroto (128 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
@Ezio we could invent the new rap-dance, the Cha-Cha-Qa, maybe that helps? ... guess not. I so hope he reacts this time to all this, not as he was in the discord.

@BB... it is not the self-vote of Raging_Ike that bothers me... it is his defense. When I wore that bowtie, it was to impress a girl, who I thought liked bowties. But when people asked me about it, I didn't say.. "I'm wearing it for a secret reason that I will tell you later." I just said I liked Dr. Who. I had a believable story for my odd behavior. I am not sure that makes him scummy... but it DOES make me want to hear his reason later today.

"Seems convenient."

@zorclex what seems convenient? does this exchange mean anything to you rereading your own words?
WardenDresden (239 D(B))
30 Nov 16 UTC
I'm actually in agreement with brainbomb here. The way in which Ike explained the self-vote is certainly counterproductive. And self-votes are never helpful. ##VOTE RagingIke We need more than "information-gathering" self-votes.
zorclex (0 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
I guess you have a point there BB. But blatant or not, some people might not notice it right away, and it can still work. But you displayed it to the world, and now it's fairly useless.
RagingIke297 (142 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
Thank you zorclex
brainbomb (290 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
Well, to be fair, he did that on his own zorclex, and you were quoted right there as saying it "seemed convenient".
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
30 Nov 16 UTC
@zorclex:
"You know what? Sure. I'll ##vote Chaqa. I want payback for last game."

You were town last game. Does this mean you are now scum and you want to lynch me as some sort of twisted payback?

@RagingIke: OMGUS vote. Totally logical.

@brainbomb: I don't disagree with you on how he gave his explanation of the self vote, and the "oh I'll tell you later" excuse seems overly convenient to me. At the moment, it seemed like he didn't have one and needed time to come up with one.

@WD: I agree, we need more than that. But hey, at least now we have a real discussion going.
WardenDresden (239 D(B))
30 Nov 16 UTC
It was fairly useless in the first place. Self-votes that last more than a momentary joke, or aren't used at strategically beneficial times usually are.
