Wow, so I don't show up the first few hours, after I said in the planning thread that I wouldn't be able to show up in the first few hours even though that will probably make everyone hate me, and I come to the game this morning to find 3 votes against me just as I predicted. Priceless. :neenernee
I've read through the first conversations, but unfortunately I don't see any particular reasons to be sure of voting for anyone yet, so I'll just vote BRickAstley for now to make sure I don't forget to vote on someone else real later. Else I'll be a real fool.
So since I've shown up I won't keep all of the "He's new so we should kill him first votes" right? It's slightly discouraging cause I just wanna play the game.
As for roleplay, apparently Chairman Yang, of the Hive, though I haven't played any Alpha Centurai before so I know nothing about the man. It is a man right?

I don't object to a pressure vote on Brick, just object to your eagerness to kill him so soon. He hasn't even done anything yet!
I think Maniac said he was joking or something?
And thanks Stick I appreciate it. :D

Get a reasonable number of posts in as day 1 and your newb protection should save you. Given the results of the last game there was always going to be a backlash against lurkers (and novice) so I expect a low poster to die today. Contribute and it shouldn't be you

Thanks. Unvote.
Nothing sticks out to me except for the usual grasping for straws.

Okay well thank you Jkaen, that's a good tip. Unfortunate for novice though, he seems to get always picked on just cause the random numbers roll him wolf a little more often than usual. :D
After some more reading, I've noticed that thestick seems to be fond of throwing out accusations all here and there and everywhere. I'd prefer not to vote for you since I think you're a fellow villager and you were nice to me, I'd just like to here you gather your thoughts a bit.

Stick, I took maniac's claim to be a joke claim. I didn't put any more thought into it until your post. Do you think it was serious?
If it was indeed a serious claim, Maniac seems like a good place to start.
Now that brick has arrived, everyone is accounted for. I'm still on watch for lurkers though.

Okay. Current thoughts:
-zakalwe seems to be analyzing anything that moves. It seems that he usually does that, though. Noted, moving on.
-waterbat seems to be trying to kill all the lurkers (Serdoa, Injera). A safe vote for a wolf, or feeling bitter about not killing the lurkers last game?
-I buy Injera's theory about Bob. Still think that it wouldn't be the best move to kill novice on him being a good player.
Besides that, nothing much. Who's going to compile the vote tallies since Rowain's not playing?

Super cross post. That's going to happen a lot if my phone continues to be only interface.

I thought he was being serious. He wasn't, though. I guess this is the price I pay for not playing SMAC: not getting the inside jokes.
waterbat's the only person I have any potential scum tells on, so I'll vote for him. Voting for lurkers seems like a 'safe' vote.
Correction, waterbat voted Serdoa and Brick, not Injera. And then voted for Maniac. Am I the only one who doesn't think being unkillable is a weird claim?
Yes, I know I'm grasping for straws. Yes, I know that waterbat claimed to be bitter.
