Vote: Roadrunner

Okay, do any of the vets here know if accusing the one who accuses you is scummy?

They usually call it OMGUS (the "US" bit is "you suck").

Early in the game voting for someone who votes you is no biggie, because we're just watching what wagons form more easily than what other wagons, and who interacts with whom. Haddock and I voting for each other was somewhat analogous to saying hi. The only people who have to be super-selfconscious in D1 are the scums, since they need to worry about looking like natural town, talking enough, not scumslipping and not making it super-obvious who each other are by forgetting to be suspicious of their partners and stuff.

Erm, that said, if you're a PR, it's quite a good idea to watch what you say and not to get outed early on, before you've had a chance to gather information or make use of your night-time abilities. People who didn't follow NM8, we knew from D1 that McGarnacle was one of the two town PRs, which rather helped out PPS and me as the scums :-P

Just to help cement PomPomSan's read on me, here's some more maybe-but-not-necessarily meta-relevant facts/conjecture.

People who know each other IRL:
1) Jake and RR
2) LL and Fargo
3) me and Haddock

People who are high-school age: RR, McGarnacle, probably Jake?

I'm reading the rest of you as twenty-something students or young professional types, except for PPS, because I think he has kids, so by default he's a grumpy forty-year-old in my head :-)
I'm 16 and in my final school year ;)

Wait, you're in both the "highschool" bucket and yet also the "non-native speaker whose English is functional enough not to cause problems" bucket at the same time? That's impressive :-)

Oops, that wasn't me trying to buddy you up.. I'd just forgotten you hated me :-(

LaLight is right.. we need another vote count! I'll do an unofficial one later if nobody else gets in first, but right now I need to buy cheesecloth and teeny tiny power cells before all the shops round here shut...

I'm 38 thank you very much.
There's what I say and then what I do. People tend to react far more to the former which is why I say those things. What I do has far more bearing on my role and alignment, however.

That's very helpful, thank you. I'm 28, which is probably old by forum standards now.

Remember that if someone's a good player, their scum game and town game look very similar. So voting someone because they're good and they look towny isn't really helpful.

I mean, the reasoning doesn't work there, I don't think. And even very good scum have a hard time mirroring their town selves. Also, a player might behave wildly different as a vanilla townie than they would as a town PR.

Reread SA, JReggie, PPS and RR and so far all of them are looking townie to me.

Others.. Schadd is just strange and always become null to me I guess. Calamitas is null. Silver is silent. Others I don't know.

Based on the differences between earlier games and this one, I'll vote: schadd

It's weird not knowing schadd's alignment. I might agree with you.

It's also hard not to treat you as a partner. I must get used to it. You also can be scum, though your posts in this game are really different from Ghibli, so I will treat you as my town-partner. For now.
