... Oh. On a re-read, I realized that when Bardiche said "Jokevote phase is over.", he meant that he was intending to end it, not that he was telling Serela that it already was. I guess most of my case against him is null if his vote's intention really was just to pull us out of the RVS. I would still like to see something better from him, though.
##Unvote Bardiche##Vote ConquerorOut of Conqueror and PX, I think Conqueror is the worse of the two players so far. I've already stated my reasons for initially suspecting him (drive-by posting, awkward tunneling on capt. h whose actions are not scummy derp so much as newbie derp), but there are some other things that stick out to me too. Most notably, his
lacking pressure of PX followed by a meta-backpedal
here comes off as awkward fencesitting. He's batting at PX but not actually making a concrete stance, which looks especially odd when you consider how their opinions seem to line up. Even after being pressed, he still hasn't come up with a better case beyond rampant tunneling of capt. h, and his declaration of all the other current conflicts as silly seems rather odd when you consider that he himself is following a particularly weak case. He even admitted that he doesn't find capt. h that scummy
in this post, and I can't say I understand what makes capt. h look worse than the other players who have been voted up to this point. Conqueror's current vote is essentially filler to make up for his lack of opinions in any other areas, and I can't say I like the way this looks.
There's still time to for me switch to PX, though, but I would like to see him continue his thoughts from his earlier posts before considering doing so.
@Shadoweh: Jury is still out on whether it's newbtown or newbscum. I'm feeling a lot of "Shit, gotta look town!" from him, which townies, particularly newb townies, tend to be less concerned about.
I don't particularly agree with this, considering that I have that mentality as town a lot of the time. :s Townies want to look townie so they don't get lynched, and I don't think newbtown are excluded from this.
