Space Madness Round 1 - Strange Transmission

[jeepnut]

I'm sensing some piling on here from the crazies. They see someone with a lead in the vote that they know is not them and are using their coordinated voting to make sure a sane person is voted out. And, they will be more brave about it this time since it won't be revealed that they voted for a sane person. This theory of course all assumes that the crazies know they are crazy and also know who each other are like in the last game.

While I don't like the way a number of people have leapt (although poorly) to Germy's defense this early in the game, I also don't like how so many have suddenly jumped on the bandwagon to vote him off. It strikes me as a coordinated effort.

All that said, I will go with the other bandwagon of voting off !uber-paddler. I don't want someone who genuinely has an interest in playing the game to be voted off in the first round simply because people have a hunch. That and inactive players really throw off the game.

So when it concerns Germanator, he doesn't like jumping the bandwagon. But he doesn't seem to care about Uber_Paddler... Weird.

And that's why I retracted Uber_Paddler and voted Germanator.

!Clarification Dylflon, did you assign roles before or after you asked us to write our background?? I'd like to know if it's random or not.

I explained why I'm going with the bandwagon on Uber. If you want, I can change my vote to a random person or to you if you would prefer.

It's random

Whether ship of metal or ship of wood, a ship is a ship and it needs a Captain. I stick with my Sir Uber Paddle vote, because no other better theory has arisen. I am willing to change my vote, though, if someone else comes up with something better, because I know my theories about Others in the last game were all for naught. Yes, I was really named George Washington in the last game, I was just not ready to reveal it.

Gah, I can't decide now.
!retract Germanator

I think I will watch and wait for a time.

Well, just so you know, don't wait too long. You only have about a hour and a half to get your vote in.

EDIT: Oops, nevermind. I guess you have over a day to get your vote in. I assumed the round was ending today and it looks like it's ending tomorrow instead.

Vote count so far:

The Germanator: 5
Uber Paddler: 4
ThatMarioLover: 1
Yoda 9864: 1

[Fyacin]

Right. Who hasn't voted so far?

[thatmariolover]

I guess, it would be mad to kill the captain. Still... /sigh

!retract The Germanator

!vote Uber_Paddler

[Dyne]

I'll be pro-active this game and not vote randomly.

!retract thatmariolover

!vote Uber_Paddler


That puts the vote count at a cool:

Uber Paddler: 6
The Germanator: 4
Yoda 9864: 1

Perhaps I should side with the majority and vote for the Paddler of Uber. Such conduct has served me well in the past. I learned quickly that consuming human flesh was frowned upon.

I do have special abilities though. And those abilities are clear and logical reasoning skills. I must vote for the engineer. His burst of maniacal laughter disturbed my bowels and chilled my tail bones. A sure sign of insanity if ever there was one.

!vote Swan

You know, if Jeepnut is one of them, he has just fairly effectively saved Germanator...

My goal was not to save Germanator. I was just giving my own reasoning.
