This is a... strange, circumstance to say the least.
We get a day, and more importantly, a chance to get a step ahead and lynch a possible anti-town role before the game normally even officially starts?!
How... peculiar.
I can see everyone's reactions now:
"We must no-lynch! We have no idea whom to lynch off because nothing has occurred yet! Its a blind pick, and will most likely endanger the actual town!..."
...
Which, I actually do agree with, because no-lynching on Day 1 is normally always a safe-bet, and allows players to get a possible idea on whom is dangerous and whom is not.
It's a precaution that allows the least number of deaths at the time in question, that being...
Wow, the most deaths we could have in a single day/night cycle is 5 should there be actually a lynch, and should the town-sided "Hunter role" take a shot, and should none of the 3 killing-roles (Vig, Serial, Mafia) decide not to take a shot...
...Ouch, this season looks dangerous and tough.
And after seeing that...
We really can't take any chances.
I (just saw), and agree with Sploorky that...
We shouldn't vote yet.
If we just all vote no-lynch, then we are essentially riding a band-wagon and losing the opportunity of discussion and a possible lynch using a FREE DAY.
I mean seriously, no other season have we gotten this, and this allows us to plan ahead, and discuss BEFORE anything bad goes down.
Do we really want to loose that people?
I don't.
Before we actually decide on a vote, I want to see everyone's thoughts on this season, whom they find suspicious, whom they believe they can trust, and anything else you would like to discuss...
Because until we all actually talk, we shouldn't be able to decide full-proof on a solid lynch or no-lynch verdict.
Here, i'll answer some of Sploorky's questions:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you were the mafia/killer, who would you kill and why?
I--- don't entirely want to answer this question because it feels like by answering this we are just generally giving the Mafia ideas on whom to kill, which isn't good. ;-;
But--- If I must answer it, personally, I always fear for my life (even if I was Mafia) cause, just like anyone, I don't want to die, cause then you're out of the game. >.<
But, if I had to pick, normally, I would always kill off a number of lesser-known players, as the Vig and Serial killer tend to take out the larger targets; so in this case, Digitalmez or storm, or super.
Who would you be most apprehensive about?
Everyone.
You shouldn't trust anyone in this game, because for the most part, anyone can get behind you and stab you in the back. I can say I am apprehensive about some of the newer players, because, as Sploor said, we don't know how they play, what lines of reasoning they would follow, how quickly they may make themselves or others suspicious, whom they would kill (if they were said power-role), and likewise.
Of course, I'm also suspicious of all the returning players, like Old_man_oak or Notty or Sploor because...
Again, you never know who is out to get'cha, and who you can actually trust.
What role did you want(do not mention your actual role!)
I'll work with anything as long as it is somewhat a power-role, including Lucky Civ's since then I could take an extra shot, which is always helpful.
At the moment, I want to say I am suspicious of certain people, but that's purely pre-game suspicions just based on how well I know you, how i've seen your playstyle, and how much I believe I can trust you.
My current anti-town or third-party suspicions are (and again, these are just wild guesses:)
-Sploorky
-Digitalmez
-ansoro
-Ltin
-HarmakPaul
-Defiant
-storm
Whom I feel I can trust:
-Sploorky
-Dillon
-balloon
-Surprisingly Notty, though he's a slippery cat.
-superstein
-Harmak
And--- I don't know really. They're all just wild guesses so, who knows. ^-^
