Casilu has no updates to make. It doesn't matter whether we're at noon or dawn or whatever.

I said it was day! What more do you want from me squid boy?

The first day always seems so difficult.

Hey, I'm back from gaming and checking in. I'm also dead tired and am going to sleep for awhile. I'll read and vote when I get up. Laters.

I find myself having to resist typing that colour tag at the start of my post. *shakefist Myrkr*

I'm also tempted to OMGUS vote krin, because he didn't mention whether his vote was random or otherwise.. Which makes me suspect some sort of collusion with Myrkr. Hmm. Decisions, decisions.

You're right. That IS suspicious.

I disapprove, Krin.

UNVOTE

Vote: Krin

No following my vote without a reason.

She is trying to shift Blame! unvote Sil...whatever it was Vote Myrkr

Random.org hath spoken!

Vote: Furien

Now give me time to catch up.

Ha. For me to be playing myself would just be too appropriate. Shame.

Random.org gives me Vote: Diamondais.

Yeah...I don't know how we're going to refer to you conveniently without mixing it up with the mafia character. With Nejii you can just call me Shiri so that one's easy.

And I think we can stop random voting now. The point of random voting is to build discussion. It loses any value when people turn it into a kind of tradition to avoid committing anything.

Oh hm well! Yeah that's a predicament. Well, just call me Soll then, if that's easier. Or I could use my old forum account for the duration of this game.

As for random voting, valid point! I don't quite get why Krin voted Myrkr when Silferras was the one who called him out. Seems like any old reason(if confusing...). And if he's not voting for Silferras then why not, in this circumstance? FoS Silferras by proxy. so:

Unvote
Vote Krin

Shift.. blame? I wasn't blaming Myrkr, I was blaming Krin. Myrkr's response was a little weird, too, and it's all kinds of strange for them to jump on each other. Now I'm even more suspicious of the pair of them. Well, can't go wrong with the majority, I guess.

Unvote

Vote: Krin

I don't think it's strange for Myrkr to be jumping on Krin. any more than it is for anyone else to. Now that I think of it though, Krin thinking it's a good idea to vote alongside fellow scum since this is his first game does seem feasible. (Though Myrkr voting him in response makes it not so much so.)

Nonetheless, Vote: Krin.

Which makes 4/9 on him. Let's have NO NINJA LYNCHES this round.

From what I can infer, Myrkr's voting of Krin may be a warning to fellow scum not to be so blatant, since hers is the first (intentional and non-random) vote on him. There's really no risk unless everyone else jumps on it, and it could conceivably be an attempt at self-preservation (i.e. 'I voted him! I can't be scum!' if he turns up scum). I confess I'm a little stumped at why Krin would vote her if they were both scum, but you can't really tell when a vote is one of the first few on any given person.

But yes, no ninja lynches please!

Just to avoid making a mistake, how many votes does it take to lynch for now?

Nine.

16 players are in the game. It needs a majority, so half 16 + 1 = 9.

Usually number of people divided by two, then + 1. So 16/2=8, +1=9, which makes 9, as Shiri said.
