Exactly, its not like you are trying to get people to participate either, you just voted cause you dont like that I disagreed with your reasoning because I can't give 3 people a pass when none of them are confirmed.  

How can I get a lurker to talk?  Sure I could vote them but its only one vote,  and even in this small of a game that doesnt mean much.  If I really wasnt just interested in hearing from them I would have voted for them and then encouraged others to do the same.  Which I haven't done,  I have just suggested it as a course of action, considering in the past it has been successful many times.   And in the case of HappyD, I didnt see that he was banned,  I made a mistake,  but that doesnt excuse the other 2.   

Let's recap Day 2 so far:

1) radish, FF and v-man post without needing any incentives to do so.
2) I throw an accusation at linkz, although I didn't doubt that he would post several times without my doing.
3) I quote benao and astro to get them to say something.
4) happyD is banned since before the start of Day 2.

I got everyone covered. By the way, linkz disagreed with my reasoning as well, but I didn't vote him out of spite (which you claim is my reason for voting you).

You can get lurkers to talk by quoting them. It removes their excuse to refrain from posting. Once they talk you can judge whether they have been following the game, are struggling for words or are just parroting someone else.

Suggesting a course of action is a nice way to get something done without initiating it yourself. Essentially, someone else would carry the burden of responsibility. Not to mention that your suggestion to lynch a lurker came a bit early in the Day and you didn't deem it necessary to look up the profile status of the players in question. It's a bit like you don't care who we lynch as long as we do it rather quickly.

Well it obvious Benao isnt really following the game considering he claims he is lost,  despite not that much really going on, whether that is sincere or feigning ignorance only he knows I guess.  Astro has posted once and has completely disappeared again, only responding to what you said and making no ther comments about anything else.  Neither of them are looking like they are even making an effort anymore. 

You are right about one thing though,  I don't really care who we lynch.
