BEGIN DAY 1. It well end 11am on March 26th. (EST)

[Unavenger]

Vote: Avatarvecna of course.

[Snowblaze]

AvatarVecna, I don't like to start a bandwagon straight away but the RNG decrees it.

Also, Mrs McGinty is missing from the player list.

[Valmark]

I'll vote for the first on the list that lacks a vote on them, thus Gac3

[Caerulea]

Mrs McGinty is missing from the player list.

Fixed, thank you.

[AvatarVecna]

Seems legit. AvatarVecna.

[Mrs McGinty]

Also, Mrs McGinty is missing from the player list.

Snowblaze

Only a villain would pay such close attention to the player list!

[Lex-Kat]

*hugs Mrs. McGinty* Sorry you were left off the list.

[Mrs McGinty]

*hugs Mrs. McGinty* Sorry you were left off the list.

And your response is to attempt to have me removed again at the end of the day?

If I could post that gif of where Fry from Futurama squints at something, I'd be pointing it right at you for this act of treachery!

[Valmark]

She's sorry you were left off the murder list

[Xihirli]

I'd like to vote for this Xihirli? character. That question mark after her name makes her sound suspicious.
And pretty.

[JeenLeen]

I was going to go against the AvatarVecna wagon, and maybe I'll change my vote, but her voting for herself makes me suspect shenanigans.

...or, well, that's what I was thinking of writing, but I don't think her dying will give us much intel. If she's a wolf, then it's a failed ploy and probably the wolves either let us lynch her or are voting on her because they can tell it failed. If she's town, we did the wolves' job for them and they can hang back.

So I'll work on a counter-wagon. See who bites, as that could give useful info later when we learn AV and the second-in-lynching's affiliation.
Snowblaze

[Unavenger]

Sadly, this kind of chicanery is well within Xi's and AV's townranges, so it tells us very little.

[Lex-Kat]

And your response is to attempt to have me removed again at the end of the day?

*nods* Not sure I'd call it an attempt, just a strange way of saying "hello".

[AvatarVecna]

I was going to go against the AvatarVecna wagon, and maybe I'll change my vote, but her voting for herself makes me suspect shenanigans.

I guess it all depends on whether this game is actually "no power roles" or not, huh?

EDIT: I mean, it should be fine. Caerulea probably learned from last time that telling people the narrator is lying upfront might make unforeseen issues? Wait, does that mean she learned not to lie, or just learned not to tell us she might lie in advance? :shrug:

[Valmark]

To my knowledge in the end there was no actual lie besides Xi's dying message- only hidden truths.

Which makes it all the more cryptic.

[Aventine]

*nods* Not sure I'd call it an attempt, just a strange way of saying "hello".

Well, in that case, hello Lex

---

The town drunk stumbles out of the saloon, trips, and falls on his face. Giving up any attempt to pull himself back up, he lays on the cold ground muttering about how it must be the magic pixies' fault.

---

And because I take too long to make posts on my phone and had a couple more show up while I was making mine: Finger of suspicion on AV. It is way too early for so much wine.

[Xihirli]

To my knowledge in the end there was no actual lie besides Xi's dying message- only hidden truths.

Which makes it all the more cryptic.

That was no lie!
I'm playing the long game.

[Valmark]

Lie long enough and you become your own lie

[Caerulea]

I guess it all depends on whether this game is actually "no power roles" or not, huh?

There are no power roles in this game. I am not lying. If I run a game where I may lie, I will clue people in so that those who are not interested in that know ahead of time.

[gac3]

I want to vote Snowblaze... But I doubt they are a wolf again. So I'm going Jeenleen because they make me suspicious. If these bandwagons stay, I'll probably join the Snowblaze one. They tricked everyone last game.

[Xihirli]

Has JeenLeen been a villager yet?

[gac3]

Has JeenLeen been a villager yet?

I honestly don't remember

[Valmark]

Not in the games I took part in- though, in the first one they were neutral at least.

I think.

[kgato503]

Wait...Weren't they both wolves last time? Your reasoning seems a little flawed.

Huh, the D1 bandwagons formed pretty quickly. I'll go with Avatar Vecna for now (no real reason besides it's AV and I dislike voting for one's self).

[AvatarVecna]

Has JeenLeen been a villager yet?

I think it depends on how the Cruise game counts things? I think every other game in this new batch has had JeenLeen neutral at best.

[Valmark]

Wait...Weren't they both wolves last time? Your reasoning seems a little flawed.

I'd vote Gac3 for this, but I'm already doing it :p

[kgato503]

I'd vote Gac3 for this, but I'm already doing it :p

I seriously considered it, but I like to give Narrators just coming off a game a little breathing room (for being nice enough to Narrate in the first place).

[Aventine]

I wouldn't, to be honest. Feels more like a careless, but innocent, mistake than a wolf slip of some sort.

And it feels like time to make an impactful vote rather than staying on a random non-wagon. So Snowblaze

[Snowblaze]

Snowblaze

Only a villain would pay such close attention to the player list!

Or someone who is making a spreadsheet to track votes.

Snowblaze

I agree with the principle of multiple wagons for analysis, but I’d like to know why you picked me instead of gac3, Mrs McGinty or Xihirli, all of whom also had one vote.

I wouldn't, to be honest. Feels more like a careless, but innocent, mistake than a wolf slip of some sort.

And it feels like time to make an impactful vote rather than staying on a random non-wagon. So Snowblaze

Great. So I’m second highest in votes based on... pointing out Caerulea’s mistake, creating an arbitrary counter-wagon and “making an impact”.

Aventine, I think that sounds like a wolf jumping on a townie wagon (whether to protect AV or just to make sure both wagons are town, who knows?).

If you must lynch me, at least do it on actual evidence rather than “I’m not AV”. I know it’s day one, but still...

(Edit: missed a vote for AV)

FoS on gac3 for this:
1. As kgato pointed out both JeenLeen and I were wolves last game.

2. I didn’t trick everyone, I told the truth and left out the detail that I was a wolf.

3. ...are you implying I’m more of a trickster than AV? Because I’m not. (Yet.)

4. Voting for me on the grounds that I’m a good wolf doesn’t make much sense because there’s no evidence I am.
