[CrimsonFox]

If anyone sees the Metabolic Capslock Key Contoller, please let me know.

>*BLEEPZ*<

[britrock88]

I would bet a lot that yesterday's votes were locked without any triggering.

Hrm. So is the hidden message "JLO JCAJAGNRIORGNBLOMKREBREPPSAALA HOSUPCEFNATMGLEEGETKTMKHTDRHRIES"? Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

[GoldenEagle]

I am going to change my vote if no one else does. We don't need another tie.

Could be, but then again I wouldn't assume anything right now.

[Passacaglia]

Anyone not voted yet?

Man, let JAG do it, not you! I don't wanna be lynched!

[Passacaglia]

I think britrock?

I don't think that will be needed, if everyone else sticks, britrock decides.

[Passacaglia]

britrock, you've got five minutes to decide -- after that, GE and I are both changing our votes to avoid a tie.

[Raiders Army]

BTW since I haven't stated it, I'm a simple Aperture Science Tester. You won't lose any big role by lynching me if that helps.

Ummm....if both of you change your votes, won't that create a tie?

Yes, that was a joke.

Myself, Zinto, Simbo Klice, Marc Vaughan, as best as I can tell.

[Passacaglia]

Does The Jackal's vote count? He pressed the button.

Anyhow, I don't have any strong feelings one way or another. The only strong(-ish) feeling I have is about Autumn and yesterday's vote. It seemed a strange mechanic to lock the votes and whether he initiated the lock or if it was just coincidence, I would've gone his way today.

I don't think that the votes were "locked" yesterday. I think there was no unvoting mechanic yesterday, so there was no way to change your votes afte they were made. I believe it is the case that everyone's original vote was counted. I don't think anything changed after I voted, must that CF didn't give us a vote count until around then.

If you think I'm a bad guy because CF gave a vote count after I voted, well I can probably come up with a better reason than that to vote for me.

[CrimsonFox]

It is commendable, Tester Zinto, how you can sit on your button without a vote when so much strife is around you.

*chirp*

[britrock88]

I don't have a feeling between RA and Jackal. Someone convince me?

[Zinto]

I can not vote I pressed the button!

Zinto pressed the button, so he can't vote, and SK and MV are not online now. All you, dude.

[GoldenEagle]

Didn't MV vote this morning?

Personally, I don't have a problem with a tie, if you don't want to decide.

I agree. If you are a wolf and used a vote locking mechanic on day then it would be a poor play, and one that I assume you do not make as a wolf.

[bhlloy]

Unvote RA
Vote Jackal

I don't see the point in another tie TBH. Let's start finding some stuff out. Sorry Jackal.

He posted, but I don't see a vote, looking back quickly.

It seems weird that there was a rally around Jackal.

Kind of uncool, IMO.

[britrock88]

VOTE RAIDERS ARMY

I envy Zinto right now, but bhlloy has made it easier to participate.

[bhlloy]

Why? Why shouldn't I vote where I think it should go? There's enough people on to tie it back up if they want to

Well, I said "strong(-ish)".

I would've voted your way in lieu of any better candidate. That's all. BTW, can you provide the better reason to vote for you.

[Passacaglia]

Wait, didn't bhlloy press the button, too? Or can the button only be pushed once? Sorry if this is distracting more than helping, two minutes to deadline...

I just think that "let's not have a tie" is not the best motivation for a vote, when we don't know the tiebreak rules.

[Zinto]

I assume only I pushed the button.

[Passacaglia]

Also, I don't like that now I can't do something similar. :P

[bhlloy]

When we have more time Pass I'd love to hear why movement and actually making people make decisions is a bad thing in this game.

[britrock88]

Glad I could help you find the Metabolic Capslock Key Controller, CF.

[Raiders Army]

Also, I know I'm tempting fate by throwing Autumn's name out there when his vote is saving me right now.

*who's stupid or what*

With all of that silly capitalization, I don't feel so special now....

Based on yesterday we have to assume that it means No Lynch.

[CrimsonFox]

The concept of Deadline has been successfully tested. Well done.

That seems like putting words in my mouth. I think we had a pretty good spot before your vote, where britrock was going to make a key decision. I'm not sure how your vote was "making people make decisions"

Why did you wait until 6 minutes to deadline to tell us that? (Unless I missed it earlier which is quite possible)...

[JAG]

So I believe Raiders Army wins this vote then because he did not complete his unvote test for the day and he was only down by a vote at deadline.

[GoldenEagle]

Deadline?

[britrock88]

Portal knowledge explains that. One can't do much else while standing on the button...

[Zinto]

You missed it earlier, Crimson informed us that if someone pressed the button they could not vote but he could have been lying so maybe I should have tried to vote.

[Passacaglia]

I don't agree with that -- part of me has been thinking that the Day 1 vote was designed for there to be no lynch.

Ah. Okay, I stand corrected then. No worries.

[britrock88]

And, for that matter, who's to say that there will be a lynch tonight?
