Don't go by my location to get my timezone. Seriously. It'll only confuse you.

My first vote - which will likely change - is Moyank24, only because we share a time zone. How's that for random?
 
Hm. Dare I suggest that a pattern may be beginning to emerge, here? A bandwagon in the process of being constructed with a view to assisting Moyank to her precipitate demise?

Thus far, voting appears to be as follows:

Moyank24: (3): Twietee, Tomorrow, and ravenvii.

Scepticalscribe: (1): Sythas

mrkramer: (1): Plutonius.

Very strange.
 
piling up already?
i don't think that is very polite, ravenvii

I concur with the sentiment expressed, and agree with you, such piling up so early is not at all polite. However, my nice, basic tally is now out of date and has been overtaken and superseded by events.

As we are advised not to edit posts, I'll copy and paste and add to it as needed:

Therefore, thus far, voting appears to be as follows:

Moyank24: (3): Twietee, Tomorrow, and ravenvii.

Scepticalscribe: (1): Sythas.

mrkramer: (1): Plutonius.

ravenvii: (1): Don't panic.
 
And yet justly pragmatic. You shall be amiss for not being aware that our dearest @Moyank24 hast participated in the wolkic persuasion more habitually than should be proper, and that the lady is indeed extremely proficient in the execution of such.

Do you not wish to promote our safety, @Don't panic?

I agree that Moyank - when on the side of Good is a most valuable member of the Village Ensemble - and when on the side of the Furries - is lethal.

However, this does seem to me to be a clever attempt to kick start a bandwagon, and to ensure that a sort of fait accompli might have been pushed through.

Personally, I'm of the view that this is a little precipitate, somewhat hasty, and errs on the side of Bad Manners. Let us hear what people have to say for themselves before voting them off.

Very well.

For the sake of proper manners as dictated by the colloquium, I shall modify my vote as to where it is effectively nullified; Tomorrow.

Well, it is just that I thought a bandwagon - or consensus - was forming rather rapidly - and somewhat suspiciously, especially when the target is someone vastly experienced and very able.

I'm not sure I'd like to see us lose Moyank on the first day, at least, not until she has been able to plead her case.

And I have just been re-reading the rules pages, as set out by our esteemed GG.

Very well, then.

Voting currently is as follows:

Moyank24: (2): Twietee, and Tomorrow.

mrkramer: (2): Plutonius, and Moyank24

Scepticalscribe: (1): Sythas

Ravenvii: (1): Don't panic

Queen of Spades: (1): rick snagwell

Tomorrow: (1): ravenvii.
 
Hmm.

ravenvii is a well known pile-on-early-villager. Caved in really fast though.

Considering Tomorrow's 50/50 odds to survive the first day it's basically a preemptive self defence vote. :p
 
Tomorrow looks the most suspicious for jumping onto Moyank. However in the interest of self-preservation I'll go with Moyank since we are both tied at two.
 
Hm. The heat remains on Moyank - just a little early for this turn of events, to my mind.

Votes cast, for now, are, as follows:

Moyank24: (3): Twietee, Tomorrow, and mrkramer

mrkramer: (2): Plutonius, Moyank24,

WoodNUFC: (2): curmudgeonette, philbeeney

Scepticalscribe: (1): Sythas

Tomorrow: (1): ravenvii

Queen of Spades: (1): rick snagwell

ravenvii: (1): Don't panic

Yet to cast a ballot, or vote: mscriv, Dsching, Queen of Spades, WoodNUFC and myself.
 
Not reluctant to stay on Mo either. I'd vote for Tomorrow, but he's right that he gets voted off day1 really often.

raven for a four-way tie.
 
Hm.

Now, it is looking somewhat interesting, although, as Moyank was first to reach three, and then two, and then three (again) and then, again, two votes, she remains in the lead in the event, until, that is, someone else reaches three.

So, a re-cap:

Moyank24: (2): Tomorrow, mrkramer

mrkramer: (2): Plutonius, Moyank24

WoodNUFC: (2): curmudgeonette, philbeeney

ravenvii: (2): Don't panic, Twietee

Scepticalscribe: (1): Sythas

Tomorrow: (1): ravenvii

Queen of Spades: (1): rick snagwell

Yet to vote: mscriv, WoodNUFC, Queen of Spades, Dsching, and myself.
 
Wow, I forgot how random day one voting is. I'm gonna cast a ballot for curmudgeonette at this point. Why, you ask? Well, he/she is brand new to MR and by far the player I am least familiar with.

Player list for reference:
1) WoodNUFC
2) Sythas
3) rick snagwell
4) twietee
5) Moyank24
6) Ravenvii
7) Scepticalscribe
8) Plutonius
9) Philbeeney
10) Tomorrow
11) mscriv
12) Dsching
13) curmudgeonette
14) mrkramer
15) Queen of Spades
16) Don't Panic
 
Tomorrow looks the most suspicious for jumping onto Moyank.

I'll go with Moyank

I can taste the irony.

What, pray tell, is so suspicious about "jumping onto" one player and not another at this point in the game?

I said it would happen: Plutonius, because if I were to vote for someone who already HAS a vote, that's "jumping on," and that's suspicious. :rolleyes:

Well, any appearance of a band wagon on the first day - especially if the target appears to be a talented and experienced player - always sets off my radar.

Getting more interesting by the minute.
 
Yeah, it is!

I'm going to jump over to raven for defensive reasons. Also because he's mean! :eek:
Well since I said I'd move my vote for you if you moved yours from me, so I'm going to go for ScepticalScribe since she hasn't voted yet and I know in the past she has voted for people the first day to get them to come out and vote.
 
This is getting more interesting by the minute.

Well, now. Moyank seems to be out of immediate trouble - having tumbled from four to none, and currently has no votes to her name, while a few of us appear to have attracted some unwelcome attention by way of unwanted ballots.

A revised tally:

ravenvii: (3): Don't panic, Twietee, Moyank24

WoodNUFC: (2): curmudgeonette, philbeeney

Scepticalscribe: (2): Sythas, mrkramer

mrkramer: (1): Plutonius

Plutonius: (1): Tomorrow

Tomorrow: (1): ravenvii

Queen of Spades: (1): rick snagwell

curmudgeonette: (1) mscriv

Yet to vote, Scepticalscribe, WoodNUFC, Queen of Spades, and Dsching.
