You can run, but you can't hide. How come you did not vote at end of day by the way?

I am surprised how strong your conviction is on this considering what the one post was.

Despite coming around and now thinking it's overall not really a good idea, should I go for an inactive vote here? Is it acceptable when there's almost nothing to go on that's about the game?

I guess making this post will hopefully spark some game talk

I am not in the "vote the most inactive person d0 every game" camp like the Lars and bugkids, partly because it can get special roles killed and because of replacements. Also that it can make it more difficult to actually get information on d0 if wolves can simply get away with voting lowposting town player based on policy. My answer has always been that it is context dependent basically. You have to decide based on your reads or lack thereof on the people who are here. Having skimmed the day, I think it is reasonable that lowposters were mainly being pushed. What I would have liked to have seen overall is more effort in actually trying to generate game-based conversations.

In your opinion, what is the difference between a 0 poster and a 1 poster?

I like other people's babies. My second nephew was born last weekend and I get to see him on Sunday

Unfortunately, I used up all my paragraphs on my 7k words in essays I turned in earlier

bugkid ??? Weird and context deaf take. (I do not have any reason to assume votes count at night)

my initial reaction is to vote botchi even tho i think they said they were excited to play after not doing so for a while :/// but they're the only one who has not posted

Well, when they do notice the game it does seem like they can still participate, so that is good

I am not really against asking questions but you did ask this after Xel had already given reasoning, so I would be interested in why you thought his prior explanation was not sufficient

Probably better to vote botchi if you are going the inactive angle

That's probably where my vote will be going in about 10 mins.

The silver lining is if he comes back during the night he can at least say stuff and sort of play?

Agreed on the silver lining, anyway.

Sorry I'm not even saying that much, I keep having to jump off and back on here but it looks like botchi inactive vote is happening? Everything else is just greetings and memes as usual so it is what it is

I mean, I think there was more to engage with here if you actually cared to.

If I thought he was a likely hit I wouldn't be so reluctant to vote him but it's not like I have a better choice

I like this post a bit as town indicative. I think there is some nuance here, and you are the main one trying to go against "dead air, dead villager"

Jeez. I almost think I have the wrong time or something.

The last hour is actually my 4am - 5am hour. Not sure what everybody else's excuse is. I do have a 3-day weekend coming up and will have more flexibility for my posting hours then though.

He will be cardflipped at the end of the following night phase.

Night 1 will last 12 hours ending at noon central (server) time thursday, April 10th

Night 1 begins now.

As a reminder, players may make no more than 22 posts each during the night phase, and botchi246 may make 11 deathposts.

End of the following? Jaysus.

Y'all are stinky dirty doo doo butter creme eaters for being gone at EOD

Xel - I honestly have forgotten how I used to attempt to read Xel but I was fine with the Subaru push and overall felt weird how much pushback it seemed to get.
WV - Overall, good posting for d0 due to being funny if nothing else, but would still like a level up on d1 in terms of content/wider net. Might be notable that he had no reaction to receiving Freezin vote despite being allowed to post at night
Freezin - Overall, most pro town of D0 I think. I am honestly used to kind of leaning on other people to support my reads on you though.
raeko and bugkid - Both of you I think I have seen more substance from on past d0s, although I understand the environment of this particular d0 was not as helpful for facilitating it. But we have to be the change. bugkid I am mildly sus of though.
Zennith - Disappointing ambivalence, basically co-signed the vote without joining on it, so for any end of day analysis I think should more or less be considered to be on botchi due to not saying any of the other options were being considered. Cannot hide behind not liking d0 anymore though because it is no longer d0 even now.
Subaru - Needs to play or get replaced in my opinion
