Indeed. I'm a bit nervous about the first night, but we'll know soon enough. I agree with Scott - random killings are not cool, you could take out someone with a good role.
The problem is, the same thing is going to happen the next night (making it even worse for the innocents), and the night after that, with the chance of hitting an innocent either slightly decreasing by the more innocents killed, or it GREATLY increasing with the more baddies that are killed, so if baddies die tonight, or a baddie and some innocents, then we're going to be in the exactly same spot as we would be at the beginning of the game, which, in retrospect, makes it pointless to even have a no execution unless late in the game when innocents have the upper hand (which they don't right now, as it's an even battleground).
I've gone on about this a million times and have found nothing useful about delaying what our job as innocents are, unless there is some tactical advantage, which there is not here.
Also, if a person votes no execution on day one, and is actually against executions on day one, would it not also be hypocritical to vote for anyone on day two or three (unless, as I said, a dream comes along, or a role reveal)?
Edit - Also, Scott didn't say random voting was bad, he said that voting for things that are not in the game is.
But the most horriblest feeling ever is being killed first day when you didn't deserve it. Reminds me of everyone killing Simon in LotF...
