Yes, I agree, and also, Legolas, you posted that your vote was for Diamond, and was located within your last post. Your last post was this:

I guess she is a bit peculiar. I posted. Dunno if I'm too late.
Assuming you didn't delete the post in question, there's something that needs to be explained.

When you're voting, you need to put the person's name behind two plus signs, and leave that in its own line. Like this:

++your vote's name here

Except that you need to put it in bold face, which I didn't do here, in order not to generate confusion about was my vote example actually real.

You also need to give some explanation, preferably with examples or some other kind of evidence in order to back up your vote (otherwise, people just think you're suspicious).

For instance, here's some suspicion for you right now. Your behavior sends up some red flags, Legolas. One-liner posts are not particularly helpful. They don't do much to further the rest of the group's understanding of you. Voting without proof or explanation of any kind is to be suspected, so be careful. So I'm going to help you out here: Why do you suspect Diamond? Can you give us any examples of her behavior that sent up red flags for you?

Please don't take this post as a personal attack. I know you're new at this, and that you were confused yesterDay, so I'm trying to help you out. I'm willing to cut you some slack, depending on how you play for today, but it may not last.
