Just think of the endgame when almost everyone is here.
If I may add my two cents... (ignore them if you wish).
Giving an extravote on the next Day (fex.) is a tricky thing * especially because of the simultaneous timing of the ending of the votes - and because we have here quite many people who are not able to hang there at the DL.
Just thinking how we could try to affect the outcome of the vote there in the best possible way would be:
a) preventing a double-lynch
b) preventing a lynch of someone who we consider innocent
c) helping to lynch someone we think is a baddie
Now if we all from the house of Finwë vote like six hours before the DL we have no way of saying what is the situation at the DL and how our extravote will affect the situation there.
Thus I suggest that me,
Lommy and
Agan refrain from voting anyone for the extravote and let
Shasta &
Fea &
Mänwe do it when they know better than us being able to hang there at the DL.
That doesn't mean that we Finns should not let the Americans to know our ideas of who is good and who is bad (and you can ignore my suggestions if you think that wise) - and that you there at the DL should pay heed also to our views.
This plan isn't risk-free either. If there is a last minute madness there in the game thread it is possible even clearly intended vote from here might turn against our wishes with some last second vote down there.
But adopting that kind of scheme of course depends on how important we think following
Agan's plan would be. If they are thinking that that's what we're going to do, then it may be we have to stick with it. But if enough many people think -and say it out loud - that it is a bad idea (which I think it is), then we might consider trying to really affect the outcome of the lynching for good and not only send possibly redundant info with the risk of going against the three principles I just expressed up there.
And of course there could be a way to try and find a middle-ground solution. Was it that looking from the list of players even is good and uneven is bad (or the other way around), well anyway. That would leave us half of the people to be picked as those who get the extravotes - so especially in a race where there are fex. two leading candidates those doing the voting there at the DL might be able to find one from the list we can use who has voted the person we wish to get lynched.
* When the number of people here doubles we can probably not longer co-ordinate our votes but this will turn more openly into a playing-ground where opportunism and tactics rule. But at least now we have a chance to try and co-ordinate things.
