I'd like Sunfan to confirm if he knows he's playing or not.

Better mislynching a non contributing town than a contributing town. Since it is currently the first day there is not much to go on and odds of hitting a wolf on Clasko are much the same as anyone else.

I can see the point you're making, but what do we learn from it if Clasko is a mislynch? We can't go back and analyze his interactions with other posts and vice versa. It wouldn't be the worst lynch in the world but I'd rather see Clasko get active and throw a vote down.

This seems like a very pro-wolf strat in my eyes; lynch the inactive and virtually restart D0 again on D1 (depending on the night action I guess).

The opposing view would be to wonder if the wolves would actually want to preserve inactive players because apathy=bad for humanity.

I'm leaning more on the former than the latter in regards to rng.

Argh I have to go to work now and won't be home until well after EOD :<

I'm not sure how I feel about a Clasko lynch. On the one hand, he is not doing anything and getting rid of him will get rid of a dead weight, give us more active players to work with next phase and make the game a bit more fun. It's not uncommon for wolves to try to fly UTR but I think Clasko would have tried to defend himself by now even if that were his strat. He seems like he is really just busy/not checking the thread.

Since I can't be around at EOD this will be my vote I guess, TPS. I don't like the angle he's going for with his posts. It kinda sucks that I haven't heard much from the replacements but I gotta go now ;_;

What can we achieve from keeping him around? There's still a night kill we can look at and see a reasoning behind the kill. What I'm wondering is why you're defending Clasko so much when I'm putting pressure on him for the same reasons as soramimi but when my vote was on her you didn't say a word.

[thesunfan]

phase is over please stop posting.

final Votecount is as follows:
RNGRX (2): Antronach, TPS
Antronach (2): Charles, Kitten
Clasko (1): RNGRX
TPS (1): Mellon
No Vote: Clasko, DFR, Red

random.org will be deciding who dies between antronach and rng.

[thesunfan]

random.org has decided that Antronach is to die over RNGRX.
Antronach has been lynched, he was Vanilla Town.
Night 1 will last 24 hours and will end Dec 19th, 1 PM server time.
In addition, Clasko, DFR and Red have all accumulated one phantom.
Just a reminder that night talk is ON, but Out of Thread talk is OFF.

Well, I'm an idiot. I thought Day Phase was ending in the evening for forum time, whelp.

RNGRX, could you clarify on why you didn't switch your vote to Antronach despite being in a KitB with him?

I like the emotional tone here. I suspect that it's either from the perspective of one Wolf Partner to another or a Human Player to another Player in general, the latter being statistically more likely. And given my pre-existing Human lean on him, I'm opting for the latter possibility at the moment.

This post, as well as RNGRX's later response to tps, makes me feel that it's faceted from a Human mindset. I disagree that lynching an inactive is the way to go for most Day 1's, since it provides information, but I feel that RNGRX sincerely believed it would be our safest bet.

Why do you suspect RNGRX for pursuing a lynch on an inactive when he's been trying to get the game active the entire Day Phase?
Also, based on your logic, RNGRX would be suspicious in either scenario. You're saying he's either a Wolf that wants inactives to live or a Wolf that wants inactives to be lynched. It's a fallacious dilemma, why can't he be a Human wanting to get rid of the noncontributive because he would prefer a game with active Players?
