The powers that be have decided that the Giraffe Boards is no longer fit to be accessible via the company's network, so my available playing time has been severely curtailed...but I'll do my best to keep up.
A few observations from the past few pages of posts:

I will add that this Day 1 is so long that things might start to shake out sooner than in a game with shorter Days.

But why not read and take accountability for your vote vs using random.org. It seems so lazy and gives us virtually no information so day 2 is just a repeat of day 1. |
I disagree. I think it gives just about the same amount of information as "I'm voting for Bob because he said something that vaguely sounds like it could be a 'scum slip'". And Day 2 is never going to be a repeat of Day 1 - because Day 1 (and Night 1) have happened...and that gives us some solid information to work with.
Whether or not we are able to make good use of that information is a different story...but at least it's there.

By "limited", I mean RL doesn't allow me much time for posting, let alone reading other posts. I'm on my lunchbreak now.
Since we're being meta, my reason for the Town lean on Mendie has more to do with whom I assume Mendie to be, in other mafia games. (If I'm correct, his style of posting can be frustrating to parse. I need more time to re-read what he's saying) |
I know exactly what you're saying here, and I agree with you.

There is something going on, .... in a lot of places, but this one is more hunch, as opposed to voting for Ladybug or Doctor French at present, I don't like other of those, but I can't put my finger on why. .... more.

The more I read, the more I am put off my Mantis. I'm not sure which I like worse at this point: Doctor French for making judgements but refusing to share their thought process, of Mantis for their "feelings posts". I understand that one or both of them may be attempting to post in character; I still find them both off-putting.

Doctor French. For repeatedly throwing in cliché scum tells. Looking to attract attention. Bogatyr asked upthread if this poster was trying to get votes and Dr. French did not answer, but later when there were some votes, seemed willing to discuss. But really hasn’t. More "interesting" and "don't agree" posts.
Atticus Finch. It looks pretty damning that he either didn’t know or pretended not to know that there were two scum teams. A little more suspect when he didn’t come back for awhile but he’s discussing it now. Would switch and vote here if the wind blows that way.
Elsa Bloodstone’s few posts don’t look that good, but the main problem is there are so few of them. I do like to give people a chance, but this has been a long phase already. Again, could vote here.
Town leans: none that I want to share. The players who look the strongest town to me also look like very experienced players who are capable of fooling me, so I am reserving judgment.
Mantis. My guess is this poster is assuming some kind of in-character posting style. I am not familiar with this character but this style can mask things other than sock identity and I'm suspicious that may be the point.

Is there something I haven't answered? |
Is there anything you have answered?

I'm quoting Doctor French here, but they are not the only person whose done this...
I don't like it when people unvote "whoever I was voting for". It suggests that they don't actually remember where their vote is...which suggests that they don't really care too much about their vote. And the only reason I can think of for not caring who I am voting for is if I don't really care if their Scum or not.

Why not? several people have explained why they would prefer the Doctor to be evicted; what reason do you have for thinking they should stay?
