    In the show, can Sylar tell whether people have powers or not? I mean, would it make sense to guess that the Sylar in this phalla has a Seering ability?

    Also, we really need to find out how the Guardian role(s?) are going to work. Forming a network depends on that.

    You should def. watch some Heroes on tv-links. I think they have episodes of it there.

    EDIT: www.tv-links.co.uk, a site that hosts a bunch of tv shows in various formats. I think they have Heroes, but if so I'd suggest hurrying. St. and I watched almost all of the first two seasons of Venture Bros. on it, but then they took them all down.

    Does no one remember the lessons of last time? The sad tale of Quetzi the poor reader of PMs? I don't see why it's a fucking crime to go through the thread before checking my PMs, I saw it posted and wanted to go through it, and didn't even realize I'd gotten a role PM yet cause I turned notifications off back when I was the Amyrlin and was annoyed by popups every time I changed pages.

    I realize this bandwagon is probably unstoppable at this point, but it's retarded. Drez is seriously reaching, and I'd say relying on the trust he built up from last game to try and push a point of view. Whether that's "evil" or not I can't say, but !vote Drez because what the hell man.

    That's hard to tell from the first round, I think, especially since this game's sign-ups filled up much faster than anticipated.


    There's probably some dude who doesn't think this starts until Tuesday.






    And he's probably like the one who has the win-the-game-power.

    1) No, it's not a crime to check the thread before checking your IM. It is, however, extremely suspicious to post a QUESTION before even checking to see what your role is. Role PMs are one of the fundamental, common elements to a Phalla. If you want to see my reasoning, I just PMed it to someone who asked, but I'll go ahead and post it here, too:

    But really though, why Tossrock?


    Just something to do on the first day?

    1) I hate grudge voting. It's usually wasteful.
    2) There's not much to go on on the first day.
    3) I really do believe that Tossrock is too smart to post in the thread with the question he had without checking PMs first, so I think he didn't take into account that Hylianbunny posted win conditions in good guy PMs (rather than publicly), because normally win conditions are posted publicly, so I think the quick "I didn't check my PMs yet" reply in-thread was an excuse. It could have been an honest mistake, but I haven't seen anything else suspicious yet, and I prefer to vote for someone even slightly suspicious than randomly throwing my vote away. Honestly, though, I'm surprised people just started following my lead. There's a damn good chance I'm wrong.

    2) I didn't expect people to blindly follow my vote for you. I simply pointed out that what you were doing was inconsistent with good guy behavior considering the information good guys have. And what lesson are we to have learned from the last Phalla? The lesson I learned is to not engage people in pointless debate, so I won't do that again. The lesson wasn't "vote randomly instead of for people acting suspiciously." Sorry, Tossrock, maybe it was just an honest mistake on your part but it is literally the only suspicious thing that has happened in this thread so far, by my observation. Others can disagree, and they should go vote with their instincts. I'm not calling for your death or trying to drum up a bandwagon against you, and I certainly wasn't the first person to point out the glaring error in your post. I may very well be wrong, and people should assess the situation for themselves. I may be very wrong about you, but I'm not going to vote blindly when I have someone saying something even minutely suspicious in front of me. My votes will always go toward my hunches above randomness. Anyway, I hope the above quote accounts for my reasoning.

    3) You used the wrong color to vote for me.

    True. Sunday activity is always very low. Let's worry about low-activity posters tomorrow after rush hour.

    And I'm about to go help put up some crown molding up at my parent's house.

    And, unfortunately, the only solid lead I see right now is either A: Tossrock for the shenanigans or B: Drez for stirring up the bandwagon juices so fast.

    Last game I was considered suspicious by the good guys for not posting a whole bunch after I repeatidly explained that I had been at the doctor's office and was dealing with the ramifications of the diagnosis.

    People don't pay that much attention always.
