You learn something new everyday! I'll have to try this out (right now).
Thanks, and I agree with you inactivity is tough. It is Part of the reason why I can understand where terrabyte and Palmer were coming from on my vote.

Man this really really stinks. What I am going to say is: IM A REBEL! Now, you guys don't have to believe and I know you won't because it never works but you are voting off the wrong person tonight. I'm telling you. You are. I will say this though, I don't oppose to being voted off because it allows for a particular Rebel to have a better chance at getting farther. Therefore I will root for him/her in the upcoming days.
I am going to reread the thread again and make my decision. My thinking right now probably not.

No need to ask me why I say that but you will see nonetheless.
Hints of our first role claim? Interesting.

Palmer. I don't understand this man. He keeps on suggesting people to vote for but has a stern looking at me. He says to not follow a bandwagon so why is he still on me, and not supporting his own ideas? This is strange.
Before I go out tonight I am going to look over EVERYTHING and try and help as much as possible going over every single person that has posted and analyze them to the best of my ability for your guys' use.

Okay. I read through everyones posts again. Both of the accused have done shady things, but both have also had seemingly genuine exchanges. One thing I am sure is both aren't Rebel. From the weird voting from both, to exmacinas reveal, to some inconsistencies; both are really suspicious. The fake reveal by Exmachina seals it though. It's too big of a thing to ignore. So with that said I am voting for one today and the other tomorrow as my default. If Exmachina turns out Rebel and no other info makes it over tomorrow, I will focus everything on detaining Worthy.
VOTE: Exmachina64
VOTE: Exmachina64
What information do you expect to have tomorrow that we don't have today? Because if we no detain today we'll be in the same exact position tomorrow but with one less rebel.
I'm going to say redhood56 is as confirmed rebel as you can be right now based on something he said, but I don't want to say why right now.

My word versus yours, and I find you very suspicious for solid reasons, at least, to me.
You want to challenge me with your vote, go ahead. I'm curious to see what the others think, and if anyone else can come up with an actually viable reason to detain me other than finding me "detrimental".
Yes, it might, and probably will.
Despite this, I am still for Day 1 detainment. If another dies during the night bringing the post-Day 1 body-count to two individuals lost, all the better; that will have narrowed the pool of suspects even further and thus help the remaining Rebels ferret out the Hutts. We must lose before we can gain.
By Day 2 we'll be able to operate with less assumptions, but for now, assumptions are all we've got, and in my mind someone has to be detained today for the greater good information-wise. You need to think long-term.
hmmmm
Don't have much to add. Sorry. Will go to bed soon. So this will probably be my last post for Day 1.
At the moment I don't want to vote against Zippedpinhead, TheWorthyEdge or exmachina. So I'll stick with my vote against OceanicAir for today.
I know raindoc will not agree with me, but I think this Day 1 was much better than Day 1 of the last game.

Come on! this was an incredibly eventful day, a lot of weird and interesting stuff has transpired and you cant muster up an opinion on any of it?
I put my vote on you in for two main reasons:
1) To try and draw anything out of you.
2) To draw attention to just how little you had said.
I expected I'd be coming back to change my vote, which I may still do before time is up after some re-reading but for now I'm leaving it where it is.

I'll probably switch my vote to redhood or exmachina back when I'm on a computer.

Yeaaaaaaaaahhh...
Why, traube, why?
A ploy to draw night attention away from someone else? A Hutt ploy?!
If there's a 'night guardian'-type of role amongst the Hutts, he/she could have a secret agreement with traube to protect him during the night, so if a cop-role takes traube's bait their power will have been wasted...
I was going to change my vote once he voted anyway, but I'm curious what you mean. For now:
Vote: No Detain
Not sure what Traube's goal is. I assume he's trying to scare off people.
I will say that power roles need to be careful what they do tonight Going after the obvious targets might get you valuable information(LOL @ LoC last game), or it might get you caught by other investigative roles, not all of which are friendly. There may be roles with retaliatory effects if they're targeted at night as well.

So Zippedpinhead fits that in terms of wanting to pic out the inactive folk, and being in the exmachina64 pile. He also conveniently seems to have a lot of votes, so this vote could make a difference. My only concern is that he was actually the first one on the pile, and I do often like to look at sheep/followers, but he'll do for now.
This isn't my most analyzed vote, but with how little I've been eyeing the action compared to last time (so very sorry about this), it'll do nicely enough.
Vote:Zippedpinhead
Why back to no detain
Please don't make this whole day be for nothing.
I'm on my way home shortly. This is PROBABLY just a gap vote until I can look over stuff again.

I will say that I still believe in my unvote for Theworthyedge for now. I also still think the exmachina situation could go either way and don't feel so confident voting on that right now. And finally, I will say that I'd personally rather exmachina go than theworthyedge.
Of the people with the most votes, it's Zippedpinhead>exmachina>theworthyedge in terms of my suspicions.

Less than 3 hours remaining and Exmachina leads the vote.
But we've already discussed that the "nothing" she gave was safer for the Rebels. I feel you're trying to attack my character rather than explain your logic, because you keep questioning my "interpretation" rather than giving a blunt explanation. Traube already explained his/her logic prior, and (s)he already said that it was "[n]ot 100% random. Once people started to post it stopped being totally random." I don't trust that logic, either, but Traube's only voted twice, whereas you've voted 4 times, and only after a bandwagon has started.
I never said anything about that, either. I was bringing up your post where you tried to deflect my questioning of you to voting for Exmachina (Specifically Exmachina, too):
You were trying to make me look unfocused for looking at what I thought was a lead, rather than something that I've stated that I think is irrelevant (Exmachina's Mafia claim).
Huh. Granted, several other posters have been behaving this way as well. I'm sticking with my vote, but assuming I'm not killed during the night phase, I might have to start looking at Zipped more cautiously, too.
This is all very interesting! I can't wait to see how all of these role-hints work out. Honestly, I've felt Worthy was a bit aggressive, but I haven't explicitly distrusted him (Maybe it's because our Avatars are by the same artist; that's pretty neat). Assuming he's not lying, I think his behavior might have been to help/protect another player... Somehow (Lovers situation?). I'm inclined to trust him a bit here.
Still not changing my vote for you.
You understand, it's not personal...it's business. The business of sussing out Imperial Fascists.

I keep questioning your interpretation because it's wrong. I can't explain something that didn't happen.
Also no on Traube.
Interesting turn of events.
First of all let me tell you why I voted for swamped.
Should not be a big surprise. But my vote was totally random. I rolled a dice and picked swamped. That's it. Sorry swamped.
Vote: Setre
Least amount of posts
Wanted us to use an RNG to vote someone off, which is counterproductive
Tried to get people to vote for TB, but never actually placed his(her?) own vote
Bandwagoned onto Zipped
I may not be able to post again today. If not, good luck to everyone tonight!

Welp, guess I have to defend myself now, huh? It may (or may not, I've no idea) be obvious that I've never played Mafia before. I had no idea what to expect when this started but this wasn't it. Honestly I'm to dumb to play this and can't give good arguments like everyone else so why post and make myself look even dumber?
I'll probably always have the least amount of votes simply for the fact that I don't post a lot. I can assure you though I've been following the game since it began. If a low post count is going to really be a reason to kick someone off then please let me be the one to go now because it probably won't change.
The reason I wanted to use a RNG is because people were saying they were voting randomly. My thought was well let's do it truly random. I think I explained that fairly well in my post when I brought it up. Chalk it up to once again me never having played Mafia.
Why would I place a vote for TB when I brought up two other people along with him? I found then all suspicious for the reasons I gave. Those reasons may not make sense to anyone else but me but they were my reasons.
The reason I voted for Zip was because I went back and looked at everyone who bandwagoned on Ex. Zip was one of the ones I found suspicious so of course I'm going to jump on the wagon when someone more articulate that me voted for someone I found suspicious.
Those are my reasons, take'em or leave'em.

So where does everyone rank Zipped, Worthy, and Exmachina in terms of suspicion? It'd be worth noting who your 2nd most suspicious person is of the three, especially if you have a vote on one of them.
As I said prior, I personally go Zipped>Exmachina>Worthy in terms of suspicions right now, with my vote on Zipped.

two less if we lynch. which is going to happen, but there's no reason for it having to happen on Day 1.
We'll look at people's voting patterns and #1 is the only completely random voting day. It offers no info to anyone that couldn't be also obtained on Day 2 and isn't worth taking the risk of losing an additional Rebel.
What voting patterns? Like if we don't know if the person someone voted for is rebel or hutt, how will we parse the votes? It's just as random day 2 without a detainee.

Have I ever asked you too? Not at all. I'm just saying you're doing the wrong thing.
Well this day has been nuts if nothing else. Only 8 out of 23 players didn't get voted for at one point or another.
I'm going to put my vote back on Rymuth for reasons stated earlier and so it's on the record. I will be around at zero hour to change it in the event of a tie.
Vote: Rymuth

Here goes my complete look-over on everybody's posts.
But we will find out? My argument is not about how awesome Day 2 is, it's about how small the influence is Day 1 has over the course of the game.
Did you forget about the power roles? Whatever happens after the first night, there might be reason behind it. Day 1 is guaranteed coincidence, it offers the worst deal. It's just not worth it.

We will, the role gets revealed once they've been detained.
