For all the grief Nich gets, the halfway rule is infinitely more stupid than the bandwagon theory. I can imagine a lot of reasons people might use for voting or not voting someone in the first round. Invocation of the 'halfway rule' is about the worst reason I can imagine. I have never actually seen it used for one thing. No one has ever been lynched just because they were alive halfway through the game. If you don't like a vote you are going to have to come up with a reason for it.

The only person I am definitely not voting in the first round is Sighing. He is an excellent villager and if he is a wolf, I am dying to see what his wolf game looks like. I feel much the same way about KM. I will bypass traz and say that I think OH is a villager, but it is way too soon to be certain.

I continue to like my vote where it is.

You know you can just eat me, right?

Be serious. I'm your best choice for a first round lynch? In an allstar game? With all these people acting so wolfy? You're not blind.

Shorty, it is my first vote. You may or may not be my choice. I will grant you that it is highly unlikely that my vote will stay the same from the beginning of the first day until the end. I have a couple of other people I am contemplating, but I haven't decided yet.

I will say that I respect the game of everyone playing and any vote I make will be an attempt to find a wolf, not vote off a "bad" player. This is a freaking all star game, we don't have bad players. Everyone is fair game.

Yeah, but I'm actually not sure this time. I'm getting vibes both ways.
