Alright, deadline is the 17th, and here is your first official VC. Using a new program to tally votes, (SG's thing) and I THINK I have everything tallied right, but it is different from what I am used to. My original method with excel just wasn't going to cut it for a larger game like this. Long story short, if something is wrong, tell me and I apologize in advance.

LOL now thats subtle. And maybe a little early.
Why do I feel like I am missing something here? Maybe Victor can elaborate a bit on this win condition. It almost must seem as though he needs ShaggyDan to stay alive.
And Unvote. I feel like my joke vote against Henslow, his response to my vote, people questioning him and so forth all went a bit too far. I have no serious vote as of yet.

I don't think that is what he was implying by that comment. I greatly disagree with his assessment, but its not one I'm going to argue against. In my opinion its a little scummy, but not enough that I could really build a case around it.

I really can't see that from the post; but then again I can't see much from it.

To me it seems Victor is being quite vague by mentioning his win condition, but I assume it's a jest towards scum being active. ShaggyDan was posting fairly regularly until his internet died. I read it as "he might have to die, but not yet". As to why he would post it in this wording, I have no idea.
I don't think Victor meant anything by mentioning the win condition. seems he was just talking about his general win condition. saying that he can't just always vote for inactive over whole thinks should be based on his role in the game whether town or evil because it cab prevent him from winning. he cent win a game as town by always voting off inactive townies over active scum not can he win as evil by voting his inactive evil buddies over active townies (who could later cause problems for evil).

I will vote Crazymilkshake As I said, I am willing to focus pressure in order to get something done before night. But besides that, I find it interesting that on page 11, two posts after I note that I may bandwagon a person with the most votes, crazy; who had the most votes; suddenly starts an inactivity case. (which IMO, for a day one is largely random, and likely counterproductive if deliberate submarining can't be proven, as it often ends in a replacement, or is easily dismissed with a quick "sorry, I'll be more active") Seems as though he mayhaps have something to hide?

Alright, internet is finally back and going again.
In response to people's FOSing or voting of me. The semi-serious part . I always seem to have trouble transitioning from joke votes to actual votes, in normal circumstances I wouldn't have voted for the reason I did but it was in an attempt to move forward. I now see that saying it was a "semi-serious" vote was redundant. I figured because it wasn't a reason that I would push hard and knew I was grasping at what I could for day one I should mention it. I was more just typing stream of thought than anything else.
On how to progress; I'm not sure how much time we have left (if there is a deadline set at all) but we're a little all over the place at the moment. We should try and focus down on someone and at least get some serious and consistent pressure happening. No case has stood out at me yet. I'll re-read once I've caught up on my other games.
The alternatives are to pressure an inactive to get in here and vote, or continue with the clustertruck of people bringing different weak cases up with little bearing.

Still hasn't posted from this point which was a few pages ago. Unvote and Vote Illiad for now until I either find something on a later re-read or something better pops up.
With a game this size, we can't afford inactives anyway. I don't really think that crazy going for an inactive is that out of hand, to be honest. It's day one and no one had a case. I think it's more odd that / made a case because of going for an inactive.
Damn, we really need to pressure an inactive here. An inactive could really hurt our ability to get lynches later on in the game should they survive that far.
Another suspect within two days is hard, but I'll vote shaggydan for diverting attention so quickly after /'s post on cms by hopping on cms' case. It strikes me as off. Might be nothing. We have two days to find out.

And once you got on,this is all you had to say. Vote Iliad I think you could have taken a minute to say something,anything and for some reason choose not to.

As much as I dislike the quick pressure being applied here, we are fairly short of the deadline. anything as soon as possible would be appreciated.
