One was me!
I didn't think to count Day 0 since it's, well...gone, so that makes five posts that caught me off guard. And you are incorrect as well 3J, because three of them are yours counting Day 0. Here's a little RYM Records exclusive context for those in the dark.
3J's opening post in Day 0 set off an alarm for me and some others, (I believe I was the second or third to point out how suspicious it seemed, and I believe someone even asked 3J if he was asking to be lynched) as he basically excused himself to be somewhat absent for the game, his reasons being that he was on vacation and that he also has another game going on. When I confronted him he responded by saying that he's normally a more minimal poster than most. I responded by saying that if he's known for being a somewhat minimal poster than why bother excusing his even more minimal behavior? But I let him off the hook in the same response because I have been known for my tunnel vision and it has gotten civilians lynched before. It's also interesting that I'm the first person from RYM Day 0 to mention this. When
Bernie Sanders Matt F asked if anything of note happened on Day 0, I found it odd that Golden responded with a no, but (in the same post) since he seemed to have missed the end of that day I'm not sure if he missed my exchange with 3J or any of his posts that day. Maybe he's off the hook, maybe not. But again, it is a little disconcerting to me that I am the only one to have mentioned this exchange, even if it was a light suspicion at the time.
Now I try to base my suspicions off of individual scum-reads rather than observing what seems like a scum team, but something caught me off guard during Dusk 0 that was very hard to ignore with or without the context of 3J the day before. Enter sig.

Kansas is the greatest band ever.
I am disqualified, aren't I?
Kansas is great I will vote for you just for that reason alone.

sig votes for Epignosis providing as decent of a reason for it as any (Kansas is pretty damn awesome, but I digress) but then votes for 3J providing no reason whatsoever, not even a humorous one or the simple explanation that it was a random vote. It comes out of nowhere, and it is noteworthy that this is both sig's first post and the first vote for 3J. But then it gets better...

You just won my vote. Voting sig and 3J.
Epignosis votes for sig I suppose because he voted for him as well as mutual appreciation of Kansas. But then we have another inexplicable vote for 3J that is neither explained nor noted other than the vote itself. And now, enter 3J.

I'll vote for one of my biggest influences MacDougall, and the guy that gets night killed every ten minutes because baddies are terrified Epignosis.
I'm going to try to use colors when I bold my votes because I absolutely cannot see the plain white bold.
I'll be fair, outside of the vote for Epignosis there's nothing suspicious here. But his reason for voting for him seems fake in the greater context. This came about half an hour after Epig's vote for 3J but 3J doesn't reference this, instead picking a whole new reason to vote for Epig, which is humorous. It just doesn't seem genuine to me. And then....this.....

This is why first impressions are often correct. I've tried, I've really tried, but even when I block out 3J's post excusing him from activity (which is now especially suspicious since he seems far from inactive, as if he was excusing potential inactivity from fear of slipping some susfishes) in Day 0, as well as the context of his inexplicable votes, (which resulted in his win) this post is just...oh man.
It comes twelve minutes after the last post that was in reference to the suspicions (which I remind you, were
sarcastic for crying out loud) that bwt had for llama. That exchange didn't set any alarms off for anyone until 3J made this post. It comes off as unbelievably opportunistic. Take a close look at that page, the posts, the times they were posted, and so on, put everything in context, and tell me JJJ isn't a decent suspect at the moment. And again, the reason I avoid group suspicions is that if one of the people you suggest turns out to be good, your credibility is destroyed and whoever else you mentioned gets off the hook whether they're good or not. But I can't help but feel a possible JJJ/Epignosis/sig thing going on. No hard conclusions yet, I'm trying to play it safe and I may end up voting for someone absent if I'm not confident enough and/or I see some good defenses for this. We shall see.
