I had your back on nights 2 and 4 sorsha, so you were as safe as houses for most of that game.

No. S~V~S protected Sorsha.

Seems like it's always rained this week, so tonight was an opportunity to fire up the grill. I grill outdoors in colder weather mostly, unlike most people.

I dry rubbed a couple of chuck-eye steaks, one with McCormick's Montreal Steak seasoning, the other with simple table salt (Eloh is boring ). The beauty of chuck-eye steak is that it's marbled similarly to rib-eye steak and comes from the same part of the cow, but retails at a fraction of the cost. I would dare say that, if prepared properly, a minority of people would be able to tell the difference between the two cuts.

To go with it is a beautiful cauliflower puree. While some people argue that purees are "baby food," I disagree: They pair well with thick, meaty proteins and provide a balance.

Here's how I make mine:

1 head of cauliflower, cut into pieces
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 teaspoon of salt
3 tablespoons of butter
Cayenne pepper (for garnish)

Boil the bouillon cubes in water, then add the cauliflower. Cook until finished. Add your cauliflower and a measure of the broth (you really have to eyeball it) to your blender. Put that butter in there and give it a minute to melt a little. Blend. Serve, garnished with cayenne pepper.

We have to use cayenne pepper as an optional garnish because everybody in my house is a weenie except me.

And to drink? Killian's Irish Red. Can never go wrong with one of those.

Internal Organic-Chemical Control: You are immune to poison. This is a passive ability and a constant effect.

Prana Bindu: You can fake your own death, and anyone trying to kill you will pass you by that Night. Use night six on myself

Weirding Way: You can train someone in the Weirding Way, increasing that person’s combat skills and making your trainee immune against his or her first Night kill. Used night four on Elohcin

The Voice: You can command someone to do something, either vote the way you wish or target in the manner you demand.Never used this power

Sensing the Truth: You can lie detect one statement. Used night one: I detected a statement of MM and found out he was bad.

Petit Perception: You can discover if someone’s vote the previous Day was for someone of his
or her own faction. Used night two: I found out that Golden didn’t vote for his own faction on day 2 (so he was not a part of House Hark)

FZ. wrote:Before I have to go, one more question:

Say Banana is the last baddie, but that there was a recruit before all the other baddies died, who would be the best option for that? I would target Sorsha for a kill or a recruit (not sure how it works) after the MM incident. She was very dangerous to the town. So you either want to block her every day (which you can't), or you want to take her out of the equation somehow, no?

Have you noticed that Sorsha hasn't had anything really valuable to say lately? She's just listening to others.

Matt F wrote:Why does everyone think there is a recruit now?

I am happy to discuss Sorsha though. I was expecting her dead Night 2 and every night since, but nada. No offense, Sorsha, why do the baddies continue to let you live?

Voting floyd.

Can you please explain? FZ has pretty much gone against every baddie lynch we have had in this game so far.

OK, but if floyd is bad she has also been ON baddie lynches, right?

Have a look at my case on Floyd, I think its good for explaining how I think those lynches went down and why I don't think FZ would be bad. Honestly, the day 2 lynch happening like it did if FZ is bad? I just don't see that happening in any world. Have you ever seen that happen!?

Otherwise, just remember I trusted you on MM, I trust SVS on bea, I think its time to trust me on FZ. That doesn't necessarily have to mean you vote floyd.

MacDougall wrote:For me I was sold by FZ's post volume. I find it challenging to align the thread count and sheer effort of posting woth what would have had to have been a seriously busy btsc with sehat has happened. Also TH looks like he tried to discredit her badly on the way out.

Effectively her vote evidence is very poor but aside from that she has been a bigger contributer than most. If we went through Floyd and Luke she would become top priority once again though.

Matt F wrote:So what do we do now?

Sorsha - Was surprised you listed SVS as bad. Just a feeling or anything else to go with that?

Sorsha wrote:I'd also like to hear if TH has any suspicions.

And Matt- I haven't ruled out a bea vote.

Do you want to hear if he has suspicions because it would help you decide on him, or because you really want his opinions?

What are your opinions of Luke and Blooper?

I don't know who mentioned Banana and Luke in the same category, but I disagree. Banana really seemed to disappear and maybe even forgot he's playing, while Luke is always here, but laying low. Until this day, he kept saying he doesn't know who to vote for and voted for Banana. When there was a tie between MM and Floyd, he said he didn't understand why Floyd was getting votes. Interestingly though, he said it after the deadline, when we were waiting to see who would lose the tie and get lynched.
After that, he went back to not knowing anything and voting for Banana, when it was between Floyd and Sig.
Now, he's suddenly into the game and has opinions concerning what happened with the forced votes. Why didn't he say anything last day? Maybe because he's catching flack this day, and his buddies told him to be more active.


Linki: TH, with our track record, maybe if we both think Luke is bad, he's really good
I've not once considered Golden to be bad since day 1. Maybe I'm giving him a free pass for nothing. But he's really done nothing to make me feel I shouldn't. That said, I still think it's highly unlikely that someone could manipulate 4 votes and they'd all be from the same side. Whether there was a redirection or not, giving so much power over the votes to one side seems unbalanced and it's making me doubt all of them are good.

Elohcin wrote:I assume it was forced and because I know a bit about the forcing of the votes, I feel good about those who were forced to vote Sig.

Golden wrote:I would strongly advise against an Eloh lynch at this stage. I don't think Mac is correct. It was Eloh's conduct yesterday which led me to realise sig could be bad. There is a lot of stuff Eloh said yesterday that seems both unnecessary and actively hurtful to her own team if she was sig's teammate.

FZ. wrote:Sig, I see you found the things on Loyd yourself.

So here are my options:

1. MM, just because this seems like more than a pure case on Sorsha's behalf.

2. Floyd, for giving very weak explanations for his actions

3. Ninju, because I have to agree with both Matt's analysis of her posts and how she voted last day.

4. Eloh, because I find it so out of character for Eloh to go read all the players individually, like she claims to have done. I'm seeing a very different Eloh than the one I'm used to. Maybe it's a new thing, or I just haven't played enough games with her, but I just don't know how to cope with this


TH, what do you think?

Mac, where the hell have you been all day? Is there a silencer in the game? I think I saw Mac read the thread earlier. Has he posted at all since the day started? I need to go check

I was leaning Ninju, but after her recent post I think I want a little more time to think it over. I'm leaning toward a vote for Floyd right now. Sorsha's sureness re: MM means nothing to me, I don't even understand what the case on him is.

Do you still think Eloh is good? Did you not find her explanation of how she ended up voting for Ninju suspicious at all? First, it's the part where she allegedly went and read all the people individually. Can you recall a time she did that? It's Eloh.
Second, the fact she felt the need to say it at all, felt forced to me. Like she needed to make sure we all understood she came to this conclusion on her own, it's not because someone else said something, but because she was doing the work herself.

I'm seriously leaning Eloh, but I don't want to waste a vote.

The MM case, well, I don't think it's a case. If I'm wrong, I'll be very surprised, but if I'm right and Sorsha is on to him, she'll need a body guard during the night. Lynching him would educate us. Then again, maybe we shouldn't because it wouldn't be fair. And maybe, I have no idea what I'm talking about.


As for Floyd, he's a nice option, and maybe Eloh voted for Ninju to avoid voting Floyd or even MM. But it can't be that easy.

linki: Why vote Sig, who isn't getting any votes and not someone who might actually get votes. Seems like a coward vote that didn't make you look so good

Elohcin wrote:I agree with you FZ. I think Zebra sounds disingenuous. I fear TH is stalling as well on the matter of Zebra and if Zebra turns out to be bad, I think TH may be the next best lynch.

Elohcin wrote:Sorsha, who do you suspect as being a part of Team Hark?

THe more Zebra 2.0 talks the more I suspect her. I would go ahead and vote for her now, but I think we who are not voting sig need to stick together to help save him. Is anyone else down with a zebra vote today?

Golden wrote:@Eloh - I've read all your posts very carefully.

And do you have any response?

I suspect there will be more votes on Sig before the day's end. What I am curious about is...why sig?

Is the redirection role usually a baddie role or a civ role?

@ Sorsha. I do. Are you voting for Sig today too?

Elohcin wrote:Poor Sig. Sorry this is happening to you bud.

linki....Niju is off the poll today? Who else has been off the poll so far? I am interested in who has this role and the redirection role. Suspicious things are among us and I don't like it.
