Space Madness Round 1 - Strange Transmission

[Swan]

This is what Vampyr wants. It is what he does.


He manipulates you. He controls you while making it seems like you have a choice. Fight back my friends

What exactly, makes sense about it?

The fact he said "If people vote for Swan and change their votes, we'll know they're crazy" or the part where you guys give up your own free decision making, by being influenced by someone who uses big words, and roundabout speaking to blind you into thinking you really have control of your own actions?

Voting for Swan - at this point - is not a smart decision, my friends.

[Fyacin]

Ok, this is suspicous, why not vote for swan? What makes what Vampyr did any less suspect then Jeepnut? If you ask me Typhoid is a little to eager to protect Swan.

[uber_paddler]

Hmmm, why do you want to keep Swan around so badly?

[Swan]

I'm going to go with that it is not me, but just the principal that you guys are doing the exact same thing that you had been doing before, but now Vamp has told you guys to do it.


Proving to himself that he could control you all this round

[Typhoid]

I don't care if he stays or goes.
That's why I even said "Dont vote for him yet, anyways".
I just don't want you all to fall under the guidance of Vampyr, especially in the first round.
In the first round, nobody should be swayed, because nothing is apparent.

That is why the vast majority of us voted one-after-another for uber paddler with no reason why. It's just a mass clusterfuck off the bat.

But then in walks Vampyr with your minds as putty in his hands, and he's shaping reasons to get you all under his grasp.

If you listen to him in the first round, what's stopping you from listening to him in the 5th, or 6th?

It's not the fact you're all voting for Swan, it's the fact you're being told to, by Vampyr.

Mmmmk, what should we base our vote on? Dyf said that the narrative isn't important, so we can base it on eachothers actions, which we have had very little time to observe so far, and honestly, based on your defense of Swan, I am leaning towards voting for you...

Vote for whomever you want.
Even if it's me.
Just don't fall under the mind-grasp of listening to someone tell you WHO to vote for this early on.
Especially Vampyr. He is good at manipulating, and if you listen to him in round 1, like I said before, you'll be protecting him the entire way through, which is what he wants.
I dont want to save Swan. It has nothing to do with who you're voting for.
Like I said, it has everything to do with who you're listening to.

[jeepnut]

Alright, now that Uber has returned, my reason for voting for him is gone.

!retract uber_paddler

Vampyr on the other hand is bugging me. He's somehow convinced others to vote for Swan because to quote some "his theory makes sense" without actually making a point or providing any evidence. Not fooling me. I need a reason to vote for someone specific if I don't vote randomly. I guess I have one now.

Take this Vamp....my pride is gone!


!Vote Vampyr

[Typhoid]

Votes are - if I am correct - as follows:

uber_paddler: 5
Swan: 4
Vampyr: 4
The Germanator: 2
Yoda 9864: 1
Prof S: 1

[jeepnut]

Wow, these votes sure have been fluctuating over the course of this round.

[Vampyr]

Well, it looks like what is happening is exactly what I said would happen: we changed votes a few times, and suddenly we've found someone that a certain sect of people are reluctant to vote for.

No one had problems jumping onto bandwagons before, and suddenly a few people do, just like I mentioned in an earlier post.

@Jeepnut: There is my reasoning. If you do not think that this is suspicious, I'd like to know why so that I can adjust my vote accordingly. I'm providing very good logical reasoning, especially for a first round pick.

edit: And one more thing, saying that "nothing is apparent in the first round" is a lie. The crazy people know who each other are, which makes a few things very apparent.

Hmm.
