Out of all these names...

...you found mine "funny"? And I notice you didn't say funniest, just 'funny', as if names like Thok, Mr. Stoofer and zu_faul aren't funny. Or even Shamrock, for that matter.

vote: Thok

We're getting right down to business, aren't we?

[Quailman]

unvote: Thok; vote: RangeroftheNorth

That's a funny name, too.

[Quailman]

Sorry about my absence. No access during the holiday week.

I need to catch up, but the whole Dranko thing looks suspect. He was clearly making a funny (or not-so-funny). It wasn't worth commenting on at the time, but some siezed upon it as a basis to bandwagon him. Now I recognize that townies need to look for any reason to cast a vote, but scum will jump on any opportunity. I'll reread to see who fits into which category IMO.

Unfortunately I have several games to catch up on. I'll try to be prompt.

[Quailman]

I'd like to know why BabyJesus unvoted the lurker PeaceBringer after he popped in to say hi. He seems to be begging to be lynched, and yet BJ lets him off the hook.

FOS: BabyJesus

vote: PeaceBringer

[Quailman]

I'm not the scum you're looking for.

You idiots! Have these people come under someone's power that they can only post votes, and blindly follow a moron?

[Quailman]

hi

[Quailman]

Why?

[Quailman]

You guys seem to want this, so here it is. "Impossible to see, the future is." I am a townie. There. Are you happy? I will

unvote: Peacebringer; vote: Dranko

just to get a couple of votes on someone who's voting for me. I think they're mostly scum.

[Quailman]

I see no reason not to

vote: Dranko

. His attempt at humour got misinterpreted yesterday, but he didn't really do anything to convince me that he's not scum. Plus, Stoofer seemed to avoid his bandwagon at the time.

...and I also wonder what a message sender was.

[Quailman]

[quote="Dranko20"]Quailman is

fucking innocent

...[quote]

If that's anything like being a virgin, well, after being married for 16 years, I almost qualify as a born-again virgin.

unvote: Dranko

Sorry, Dranko. Thanks for clearing me.

FOS: SOS

, but must reread.

[Quailman]

Dranko is lying scum, and clinically insane, and trying to get the vig lynched when he could night kill him.

Didn't Dranko say it was all a one-time deal? He can't investigate or vig-kill any more.

[Quailman]

What? Everyone either investigated or blocked me last night?

[Quailman]

Well, let's see where this goes. I don't have anything better.

vote: zu_Faul

[Quailman]

unvote: zu_Faul; vote: SOS

[Quailman]

So there's four of six required. I totally missed yesterday. I was off to scout camp for a while. I agree that TSA looks suspicious, but maybe we should give him a chance to claim.

[Quailman]

Sorry. I must leave to drive my son to Marine Military Academy. Be back Monday.

[Quailman]

I added some

bolding

to the following:

Sorry, hit submit before I was finished.

Where is everyone?

I think that

TSAGod is a good target from the quicklynchers.

He's been keeping a low profile throughout the game.

vote:TSAGod

Alright, this isn't much, but it does seem sort of fishy.

Thoth states initially that TSAGod would be a good target for the "quicklynchers" and votes him for that reason.

Later, however, he states that ther quicklynchers (including TSAGod) are being targeted because they lynched zu_faul.

Thoth said he would be a"a good target

from (among)

the quicklynchers", not

for

the quicklynchers to pursue. In looking back over TSAGod's posts, I see no reason not to vote for him. i must go back and read them more in context before I cast my vote, though.

[Quailman]

Sorry. I wouldn't know if I was blocked or not. Blocking me has no effect, unless you consider that it keeps the blocker from blocking someone where it would have mattered.

[Quailman]

I haven't necessarily "heard enough to back off tsa," but as for dranko, WTF? He's at 4 now. I'll wait for his response to avoid a potential lynching simulpost.

[Quailman]

And today you have the double votes, so there's a more obvious reason to vote for you. For some reason, he chose to change to whom he gave the double votes. Explain that one.

vote: Thoth

[Quailman]

And today Thoth has the double vote.

A Mafia spy does not as a rule know who the mafia are. He gets to investigate people, and if he is recruited/discovered by the mafia, gets to join them and share his investigations. The fact that he switched and gave his vote to Thoth last night is very telling. It is clear that Raj didn't know for sure about Ibaesha or he wouldn't have changed. He must have found out something about Thoth.

[Quailman]

lol! I read that twice trying to figure out what gay-meh-tees are.

As for Thoth's comment regarding the Mafia Spy, in my experience they

always

have investigations - otherwise they wouldn't be called spies, they'd just be traitors. While it is unusual to have that coupled with a vote-doubling ability, think about it - if it is found out that he is a spy who could double votes and he just switched his beneficiary, it looks bad for that person. Is that a very strong ability? It could almost be termed a liability. If Thoth is scum, of course he would want to downplay that aspect.

[Quailman]

This gives us three potentially dangerous scenarios:
1. Four Cultists, 2 Mafia, 2 Town
2. Three cultists, 2 Mafia, 2 Town
3. 2 cultists, 2 mafia, 2 town

So there are either 8, 7 or 6 people remaining? I presume the difference lies in the townie category. I'm hopeful that there are no more than 2 cultists remaining. I'd guess that Fritzler couldn't recruit mafia, or that his recruiting effort had a % success rate, or that it only worked on even nubered nights. I'm sticking with Thoth.

[Quailman]

Why won't you guys lynch Thoth already? No matter which scenario you buy into, we need to lynch him today. The mafia spy as much as told us he's scum.

[Quailman]

... when the mafia spy/vote doubler gave Thoth two votes today, when he had been giving them to Ibaesha. He clearly found something out and not knowing he'd be slain, decided to help Thoth.

[Quailman]

It's what I would do if I wantd to save my ass.

I have to leave town until Sunday night, though. Sorry.

[Quailman]

I agree. On the surface, it can't look any scummier than that. OTOH, I would expect at least one scum to have jumped on Thoth's bandwagon before the deadline, but PeaceBringer changed when the vote was tied, and TSAGod was the first to three (and would have been the deadline lynch) - not something I'd expect from scum. TSA seemed perfectly rational in changing his vote to save his own behind. Before that it was just Ranger and me. Shamrock seems the best choice today.

vote: Shamrock

~tries not to gloat over finding his theory about Thoth = scum by virtue of double-vote was correct~
