Timothy Dixon Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 Something is pinging me about the votes for Mr Pinkerton. It’s worth noting he didn’t respond to the roll call we had a few days prior; and he’s listed as “temporarily M.I.A. by our Captain. So it feels a wee bit suspicious going after a player who you know will be able to respond or counter. To clarify the last sentence was meant to say “Somit feels a wee bit suspicious going after a player who you know will NOT be able to respond or counter”

You've also stated that it's bad that Joseph Finch's doesn't want a lynch today. A statement which is highly unusual IMO since not wanting a day one lynch is a very normal opinion to have as either party. Also, you pointed out yourself that you want a day one lynch but that you were aware you were spreading out the vote. Your latest vote is copy of your previous, both being you as the only person on their wagon and both for the same reason. Yep. It's day 1. There's never a good reason to vote for someone. So I at least had SOME reason behind my votes, that I was poking people. Day 1 either gets a massive bandwagon to lynch someone or ends like this, with scattered votes everywhere. When I placed those votes, there was still plenty of time to switch them. 9 hours ago, Joseph Finch said: I takes an issue or two with this peculiar statement that voting early is exclusively a piratey move. Soldiers often lead the mob to bring the hammer down on a poor innocent pirate before anyone knows what’s what. Yep. See what I said above.... sometimes the day 1 wagon is innocent, but often there's scummos pushing it too. The fact that we DIDN'T have more of a wagon on anyone makes me lean towards there being scum among the vote leaders (As of now, Alexander has 4, but those are mostly late votes. Bart and Remy both picked up 3 and then those wagons faltered, so both of those 2 are pinging my radar) 2 hours ago, Louisa Hammond said: Unless me memory be failing me, it be a pretty 50/50 opinion between lynch and no lynch. Saying it be scummy for not wanting a lynch still be odd to me. I'm not defending those that don't want a lynch, I'm just more suspicious of those who suddenly think it's a scum tell for one to not want a day one lynch. An opinion which up until now I've never seen. There's always been debates about it, but never pointing fingers calling each other scum. In Jane Thorton's case, I think she be grasping at straws trying to find reasonable reason to explain why she voted for those that she did. A BIG potential scum tell for myself personally. Could our fine captain update the vote count? The important part of the vote count is above, and by my sundial, we're at 74 hours into the day, so it should be ending whenever the Capt'n returns. So yeah, looks like a no-lynch day. And for the record, like someone else said, your constant chatter is pinging me a bit too... Not that it's likely to matter at this point, but based on the voting thus far, I'm going to Unvote: Joseph Finch (since he has since placed a vote, and my vote was a poke) Vote: Remy Fontaine (for the suspicions I explained above, with how the voting has gone today)

If he's not a Imperial himself, then he's a great place for the Imperials to place their vote. Makes it look like there doing something even though they're sort of voting for a dead guy who like you said can't defend themselves. And when he flips town in the morning they can be like "Welp, at least that's out of the way".

If he continues to breathe and still un present, he provides no help for the town. If we keep him alive for latter days, down the road (or sea) we will still have to act as if he is here, thus a similar debate will rage again, wasting what could be a useful day. If he be good or bad, he is a distraction at the moment. So I don't find it odd to want to get rid of a distraction, especially on a dry day like is today, with very little actually suspicions. Argg!!!
Bob Posted March 6, 2019 Author Posted March 6, 2019 Vote Count: Barty Brewster - 3 (Thomas, Henry, Timothy) Timothy Dixon - 1 (Geoffrey) Gordon Smith - 1 (Joseph) Henry Ogden - 1 (Barty) Alexander Pinkerton - 4 (Nigel, Gordon, Malcolm, Remy) Remy Fontaine - 4 (Patrick, Jack, Louisa, Jane) No lynch has been achieved on this slightly extended day! (Because I’m a bad host) Day One is now over! If you have a night action, please send it in.
Bob Posted March 8, 2019 Author Posted March 8, 2019 "Arrr!" Captain Redbeard said. "I'm so disappointed that you didn't decide on someone to walk the plank that I'm not even going to give you a proper day ending! You'll have to settle on just this and the final vote count!" Meanwhile... "Send word to the Caribbean Clipper, Lieutenant." Governor Broadside ordered. "Tell them that once they've caught up to the Black Seas Barracuda, they may engage at their convenience..." --- Since Day One ended a few hours after it should have, anyone who has still not submitted night actions can still do so. I'll send you a reminder to both your alternate account and your main account.
