ye 24 hours is still 24 hours. pls no hammer until close to the deadline. thank u

[Cactus]

I'm pretty on the record for saying that some lynch is better than no lynch, even with questionable reasoning, and I don't disagree here. Though I do think we should give ol' decoy a chance to read through the 9 pages of madness before we send him to the grave.

[Irina Ivanov]

With how easy hammers can be, let's just have him read through. I mean, wasting lynches on inactives is usually a bad idea since like, they pretty have have no risk, but considering scum here can pretend to be quiet or inactive, it might be a good idea, especially on the first day.

Ah frick I just parroted everything cause I agree with everyone

[dmboogie]

inactivity is bad for the health of the game and should be punished by whatever means necessary imo

scum, you better be killing off any inactives if you have any honor

[decoy73]

Wow, thanks for the vote of confidence guys ...

Yeah, I just had a busy week - midterms for Material Selection was rough, and I have a bit of homework to do. But I will FoS: Fenris simply because he leapt on me. It's the first round, so we're still doing delicate surgery with hand grenades, to quote, well, myself, so we have to be careful.

I hope you know the lynch vote is basically pure policy. Inactivity hurts the game, plain and simple. I’m pretty sure you know this, actually, because instead of trying to ameliorate your inactivity with any form of analysis—or even the promise of analysis—you decided to finger wave and be all “Fenris staaarted iiiit!”

My vote is staying where it is.

Not particularly into this decoy lynch. It's a good idea to go for a day 1 lynch (even if its a mislynch, it gives town a ton of information just based on who voted for the lynch and what people's thoughts were), and I think its an okay idea for that lynch to be on a lurker or someone who's less active (iirc in the places where I used to play the Werewolf Game taking out inactives via a day 1 lynch yielded pretty useful results) but I'm really not big on how many people were quick to pile on a lynch target that was pretty much drawn out of a hat.

My personal feeling is that if we're looking for scum, we should look amongst the people who tried to preserve the day one shitposting — or who are otherwise trying to prevent the game from mobilizing. If we really do wanna go for an inactive (which I will state I'm not against on principle), we should maybe go for someone based on the content of what they've posted so far rather than drawing a name out of a hat.

[Yugikun]

Also, UNVOTE.

(also also, I should probs state for the record @ decoy that Fenris uses they/them pronouns)

[Yugikun]

I'm starting to subscribe to Paige's theory of "day one is dumb just let chaos happen",

Yeah okay if there's no hard activity limit then I'm fine getting on this train.

Rather quick turnaround to suddenly caring about day 1, MS.

[dmboogie]

day 1 is honestly all about who flinches first and starts delving into Actual Content

[General Goose]

I would say that now decoy has responded - and explained his relative lack of activity up until now - it's probably best to look at someone else from a policy lynch perspective. Though, yeah, not a fan of the FoSing Fen.

...meme chicken?

[Fenris]

@ yugi like fair, i just flipped between the two people who had literally said nothing other than their role received post up to the point when i chose. by that criteria since decoy's posted now i should switch over to jace, but hey we can look at other stuff tho.

UNVOTE: decoy73
VOTE: Jace

for now, hopefully encourage him to say something, etc. lemme read stuff back tho
