That should be one of town for one of scum.
You don't think scum would have seen this coming a mile away?
If you identified any scum at all with this scheme, my guess is that the entire scum does not contain one player smart enough to PM all the other scummers and warn them of this trap, which is so unlikely I can't even imagine the odds.

That's true, but it could be back peddling of scum to change their vote at this point.
If col is really innocent and this was a plan to see who jumped on to her bandwagon, the fact that it was a plan wasn't spoken of until later. So, if the scum communicated and warned each other about this trap after the fact, removing the vote might stand out a bit.
On the other hand, it could have possibly been a scum plan that backfired.
I'm not really sure what to think of it.

sheesh. cole, don't vote for yourself. It cannot possibly be helpful to your team weather you're town or scum. These are learning games, how can you learn anything if you pull this shit on the first day? You need to think about your team, and what more liability could you be to them than kill yourself day 1?
That said, it's a total distraction and pretty scummy and as things stand i'm going to have to assume you are scum. I still think you should change your vote though.

I see I didn't actually legally technically unvote in my last post, so I'm not going to just yet. Does anyone have a vote count?

I can't for a second believe this was a scum plan in any way. And I think putting focus on Ghat for voting first is really far fetched. I think it was a silly ruse with good intentions. But I can't see any good information actually coming out of it. Even though col has made (what I think is) a bad call here, I think we should go in a different direction than lynching him.
Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable, let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

lol sorry. My attention is divided between this and the World Cup. I don't know exactly how I came up with that. But it's kind of catchy, don't you think? Now change your vote and quite messing around.

Give me a break.
This is still only my third game.
It is still an interesting tactic and the only way I will find out how it does/doesn't work is to try it for real.

I have a well balanced personality. I've got chips on both shoulders

fair enough. sometimes you have to try stuff to see what will happen.
So everyone understands that the likelihood of having a jester in this game is almost nil, right?

Nope, didn't look like it! That also wasn't the best way to end the game.
