The straight jacket would have been nice to help me sleep, but that bastard wouldn't shut the hell up and it kept me up. Can't a guy get some sleep in this hell hole?Assuming the straightjacket bit means that you were blindfolded, do you know anything else about the screaming?
Polantaris Wrote:It implies that, as Shidoshi said (kind of in the wrong thread imo), someone has a double vote, knew the lynch was going to kill a mafia member, and intentionally cancelled out the vote.I think I'm inclined to agree with you on that- a lot of the new votes were towards the end of the day, but it could also be a town/neutral with an agenda to neutralise the vote.
Holypie Wrote:Ah, mechanics, something I'm good at. If there is indeed a double voter (which is quite likely at this point), there's like a 90% that they're on the town's side. So we can rule out a malicious mafian attempt to turn the lynch off of a mafioso knowing that there's a double vote, because, well, they wouldn't know that there's a double vote.Sorry, could you clarify the bolded part? I don't understand what you mean. Otherwise I agree with you- maybe not a mistake, but I'm inclined to believe that the double voter is either town or a neutral. I see it as this- unless the mafia is particularly small, they wouldn't need the extra vote.
Holypie Wrote:There's a chance that Luv is the double voter and he wanted to save Razmos, but this would mean that he knew about the rule (which I doubt because I'm not sure if many people caught that, but that's beside the point) and that he had a reason to save Razmos. I think the tie was a mistake, and not a malicious action, but it raises the question of why Luv would vote for you last minute when you had no chance of being lynched. The double voter isn't me by the way.I think you just answered your own question; he'd vote for Polantaris to null the vote. Polantaris would have been a good scapegoat for something like that on day 1; he had no votes at the time, didn't seem anti-town. If Luv is the doublevoter, he could have easily passed it off (note how he said that he voted for no real reason aside from a gut feeling) and let the vote slide by, if you will as nobody had any reason to bandwagon on that.
Holypie Wrote:About the Kyrastri thing, I noticed that she didn't vote yesterday despite having ample time to, and even mentioning that it's in the town's best interest to lynch on the first day. It can't even be said that she didn't vote because there were no solid reasons, because she mentioned that there's not much reasoning in a day one lynch. Aside from that one post there wasn't much content posting from her, but to be fair there wasn't much from anyone else either, being day one and all..Okay, you got me. I don't like voting on day 1 even though I say "it's for the best!" It makes sense to, but I get uncomfortable doing it.* I didn't like the bandwagon at the time due to how it got there, and none of the people being voted for seemed iffy to me.
If I had to have voted on day 1, if it gives you information into what I was thinking, I would have gone for either Cakes or Niernen because I honestly had no idea what the hell they were doing day 1. Even now, I don't understand what they're doing. I was going to lay it off until today to bring it up but if I had known that me voting could have actually netted us more information I would have voted to kill someone, so sorry about that :/
(as for the time bit, I was neglectful with the time and thought I would have had time to vote. Not that it would have made me look any better- late day voting is still pretty bad in itself.)
