> [@Tom\_Scud](#): > > For some reason this vote really set off my scum detector (which sucks, as anyone who’s read any of our recent unspoiled threads can attest). I do remember being the guy who reasonably defended the dude who everyone had a mad on back in Random mafia. :took out the vote: Well, saying that I set off your scum radar without any vote justification is incredibly bad play. You can’t just say I “set off your scum radar”. That’s like saying “this feels wrong” and then voting on your feeling. :dubious: ---

Should everybody just start making up their own factions and playing to help that faction win, and then at the end of every game declare Victory for the Forces of Democratic Freedom? Or would that be not even really playing a game anymore? :snipped: I have no idea what you are going on about in this post… ---

Hey, something weirder than what I’ve been talking about! **ed** , in a world where you did have a post restriction and a vote restriction, and where it was also opposite day, would you be allowed to respond to direct questions? ---

I’ll remove it after a vote count. I’ll reiterate. I do not have a post restriction. And see, I can lie. I do have a post restriction. Does that satisfy you? ---

Also, just a reminder since we’ve had a number of subs, this is a participation-mandatory game. Cumulative no-votes will lead to substitution or modkill at my discretion, and given the number of subs it’ll probably be the latter. You have plenty of time to vote, but just a reminder to do it, please. 🙂 If you’re not sure you will make it back by the end of the Day, please consider casting a vote now - you can remove it if you change your mind. You may vote for any player, or vote ‘no banish’. Thanks ya’ll. ---

**unvote** **vote Ed** Hypothesis: Ed cannot vote for anyone who has voted for him, or directly mention that he cannot vote for anyone who has voted for him. Thus the quote of a Pleonast post with no content, and the line about “this is not a breadcrumb”. Awaiting Ed’s disproof of the hypothesis. (which is to say, vote for me if you can, Ed.) ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > Ed, do you or do you not hate shoes? I find shoes to be useful. I tend not to wear them when I’m in my home or someone else’s home, but I wear them in most other situations. I suppose the pool and the beach would be notable exceptions. I certainly do not hate them. ---
