Well, someone needs to pay the piper, but we do appear to be a bit thin on the ground. I say we do away with one of the johnny-come-latelies.

The first day is always a bit quiet but barely anyone's even checked in yet :slol: George and Danny have only posted so far before the game officially started, and Babs, Diana and Sammy still haven't materialised in the thread (seemingly Babs' account doesn't even exist yet). So then it's 50/50 between Di and Sam.

EDIT: I just flipped a coin and it came up with Sam, so I'll vote for him for the time being (I'll be travelling when the vote finishes, so it's probably best to at least get something recorded so I don't get shouted at for not taking part). Since there's such a small number of us, can I suggest a slightly different voting format?:

If people just write the name of the person they want to lynch next to their own name then it should be pretty easy to spot if anyone's not actually taking part in the voting process without people having to go investigating through post histories. Might help increase the involvement if there are any rookies playing.

Oh no Frank that would mean that Liza is voting to lynch you! You'd have to put Liza next to your name, not your name next to Liza's :shifty:

Then when it comes to tally up we can just read down the right hand side and whoever's name comes up the most is the person we throw in the sea.

I'll probably stick my name against one of the "no show" players, but it's all very much a stab in the dark at this point

I've corrected Franks vote. Unfortunately there really is so little to go on at the moment, but on the basis that a role call probably would help the twins more than the town, I've gone along with the vote for Liza.

Liza, doll,
it's been a blast;
These next few hours,

Before Liza gets bandwagoned to death, should we give her an opportunity to explain why she thinks a first day role call is a good idea?

I'd rather not jump on a day 1 bandwagon as it never seems to end well and i'm too timid for all that aggro (plus bungle doesn't approve).

Instead, i will just vote for Sammy, as despite his ratpack credentials, he doesn't seem to be active yet, and it balances out the votes so far.

I know this is the 60s and racism is alive and well, but Sammy Davis is safe in my books.

Also when googling for images of Peter Sellers, I found a Peter H Sellers who was a Ph. D.
I hope I've picked the right one.

I'll drop a vote in for Diana, she's been absent since before the game began so let's see if this encourages her to show up!

I must say, pushing for people to role claim on day one seems very aggressive and foolhardy. I don't know if I'll have time before 5pm to read over every role option, so I will agree with Frank that Liza would be my choice to kill for now. Will probably pop back to confirm a vote in a bit, pending on how discussions continue.

With an hour to go, Liza is leading with 4 votes to Sammy's 2. I'm going to pop a third vote onto Sammy to tighten it up and see if anyone gets twitchy.

A reminder as it's the first day, you have until 5PM to get your votes tallied.
