The only think I can think of is conspiracy theorizing around wanting people to vote val. But the fact that Val is going on incoherently about the nokill and acting like there's a spare elimination makes me think this was a move on his part to try to be confusing.
I think barring further input, I'll be voting Val. Even in the event we don't eliminate today, the lack of a hammer provides info on the following day.
Again I would think that it's because with a 6 player mislim and lose, there are more ways for town to get it wrong than there are with 5 player mislim and lose.

yeah good point i guess it's kind of a wash between looking at it this way and looking at it the way i suggested

keepin' my vote on val/val's replacement
I hope folks will join me in hammering val and ending this game, it's getting a bit tedious tbh
Your eagerness to hammer someone quickly is suspicious, especially because you've been like this for pretty much the entire game.
i thought it was interesting because i wonder what he was thinking.
VOTE: Meg
If possible, can you explain why you just moved your vote?
Please spell it out plainly if possible, unless you really really think that continuing to post cryptically will benefit town. If you do not do that, then barring someone else explaining to me why your cryptic approach to posting helps town in a sufficiently compelling fashion, I will interpret your actions and cryptic justifications for them as wolfish behavior.
i do not think discussing this benefits the town
Okay, this here seems confusing. Why is not discussing beneficial to town?
Just for anyone keeping track, I think me/roden, me/generalwu, and generalwu/roden are ruled out as teams.
Toying in my mind whether I want to roll with no elim or put val at E-1 to further test roden/wu to see if they hammer. Not sure I'm there yet but feel unexpectedly more confident than I thought.

He moved his vote because he thought Val was hinting at being a mason but didn't want to out it.
He doesn't have scum meta. And I'm extremely aware of the dangers of analyzing based on an extremely limited sample. But Val is such a verbose player that the difference is rather striking. I'll get into it tomorrow.
differently this game than he did the last game we were in together. It's not enough to meta him but I just don't see town!Val making these kinds of gambits and fake claims. Nobody has quick hammered him yet either, so he's either scum, or StD and/or Shwinn are scum. Or maybe Val is scum and is getting bussed. Either way scum is mechanically guaranteed to be somewhere within those three.
