I'm actually going to intercede a bit here, since this is an odd situation. I don't think we've had a situation in my games before where an inactive player who's asked for replacement would have been the lynching vote. Especially not on Day 1, with no real information for people to have been acting on.

In any case: New rule: Any inactive players who are up for Replacement will have their Votes wiped by me. This should prevent any odd sticky votes as well as potential griefing.

To reflect this, I'm going to actually Extend the day until ~5pm Pacific Friday. This should give people a chance to react to this change.

I'll also be updating the Rules section.

[IronyOwl]

I assume you're not extending the day a full week or not at all?

[IronyOwl]

I'm blind, ignore that.

[Orangebottle]

Alright then. Unvote
For the record, I would've been fine with being lynched were Shark not up for replacement. I'm in three games besides this one. But, just letting myself be lynched when the deciding vote is a person who asked for a replacement is A. fucking stupid, and B. more harmful to the town than tying the vote.
Irony: Wow. That's quite a reaction. Care to explain what you were thinking when you switched your vote?

[Urist Imiknorris]

Fuck you and hang, scum. Unvote Shark, fucking Orangebottle.

Huh. I can see OB's reason for tying the vote (and I too would be pissed), but your reaction looks more like a bandwagon purely so he'd get lynched. Even more interesting considering you'd basically ignored him all game up until that point. Would you like to explain why his move was enough to go from no attention to an immediate lynchvote, IronyOwl?

EBWOP: Damn your ninja ways.

Kekekekekekekeke~
I'm just sneaky like that.

[IronyOwl]

Irony: Wow. That's quite a reaction. Care to explain what you were thinking when you switched your vote?

That you tied the vote at the last second to save your ass, which is both scummy as fuck and a waste of a day.

This also strikes me as incredibly scummy, though I can't say why. Maybe because it feels like elated RIA scum laughter?

He tried to waste a lynch- at the last second so nobody could stop him- in order to save himself. Attempting to ambush-nolynch for no reason other than self preservation doesn't seem scummy to you?

Also, why weren't you voting until now?

What makes not wanting to be out of the game a scum-only trait?

This feels like someone's trying to pad a case against me. It's pretty ridiculous to use that as a voting reason. "Oh, he laughed at posting right before someone, lynch he!"

[Leafsnail]

Hey, guys. Sorry to waste a day for you, but I'm going to vote for Jim. I'm not going out without a fight, mainly because I came here to play this game, not get lynched by a single unrescindable vote cast on me because some idiot voted for me, then asked for a replacement. That's utter bullshit, and I'm not going to stand for it.

You clearly gave up when you made this post, only seeking to waste our lynch on you tomorrow.

So... yeah.  There isn't really any point in arguing with self-outed scum.

Gave up? No. If I'd given up I wouldn't be trying to argue with Irony right now.
Glad to see you're not going to do anything with the extra day.

[Leafsnail]

You gave up the pretense that you were town.  Afterall, upon your death your status as a mafia member would be revealed for all to see.  Might as well waste the town's kill for a day if you can, eh?

Of course now that your plan hasn't worked you might as well kick and struggle a bit for the next 24 hours.  You have to play to win, afterall.

Glad to see you're not going to do anything with the extra day.

I'm gonna lynch you, and hopefully when everyone sees you put your own survival above the good of the town (by your own admission) you'll have enough votes to stop you pulling the same stupid stunt again.

Last minute vote gaming is incredibly scummy. Unvote, Orangebottle.

You say you're cool with being lynched if the vote's not cast by someone who's up for replacement. Have it your way.

Unless you come up with an absolutely phenomenal case on somebody I'm not going to reconsider.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Irony: Read the thread:

Unvote. I need time to form better suspicions than Shark, and I can't do that with this paper not done.

Basically there was a sociology paper due 2¹/₂ hours ago that I still needed to finish and I felt my case on Shark wasn't good enough for a vote.

Orangebottle:

Because you're supposed to be playing to win, and finding scum is more important than staying alive for town. Honestly, if you died and were confirmed town, that would at least mean the people voting you would look more at other people tomorrow.

Hey, guys. Sorry to waste a day for you, but I'm going to vote for Jim.

Holy shit Orangebottle, get out. I wasn't even paying attention to the timestamps until Irony mentioned it (partly because I had to look up the Pacific time conversion). I figured we had a couple hours to go. If you had done that before the very end of the fucking day (like a few hours before at least) I'd be more willing to believe you. As it is, die. Mormota pulled that shit at LyLo in BM XXVII and that hurt, so very-last-minute vote shit doesn't fly with me.

Shorten. Screw that auto-extend. GTFO this spaceship.

Eh, I could use the time.
