I had a vote. We had company over and I wasn't at my computer until after the deadline. That was my fault.

Coolios. I missed your perspective during that day. I'd like to hear it.

I need to gather my thoughts, and I am not sure tonight is the night to do that.

From what I remember, I think lynching people because they post in a way you don't like is lazy and gives mafia an easy way to vote. Please don't do that. If you want to lynch Ricochet, do it because of a good reason that he's bad, not a lousy one that he's a distraction. INH's vote for Ricochet is reactionary and expected. Quin's vote I have to look back on. It was sprityo's vote that was the nastiest and least rational to me.

You're right. It was a bad move on my part. I apologize

Dude, I can't figure out what damn game that "wilgy roleplayes a dead dude" was from.

I need to ISO epi and boomslang.

Will the game end if we lynch Boomslang, Epi and Golden?

[speedchuck]

Sprit was not that useful D1.

Possible w/w with Boomslang on D1 interactions.

D2 Sprit stayed outside of the Dom/Golden spat and said he saw the lynch as a choice between them. Possibly a way to narrow the lynch to two non-teammates. Does suggest moving away from it in the same post, though.

Did vote LC, and decently early. Almost impossible that Sprit is a Strex

Is pro-INH on day 3. Seems to legitimately be a conclusion he came to. Doubt he would go pretend to ISOread INH as a teammate unless prompted.

Anti-epi around the same time

Soft defense of TSP. Votes for Eloh. Expresses distaste for the TSP lynch, blames it on a gut feeling.

While I don't know Sprit's stance on post gimmicks and cursing people to use them, I do know him. The emotional outburst at Jack on D1, and the vote for Rico... I suspect those are 100% genuine.
I've seen more than one Spritsplosion in my time.


Upon ISO, I cannot condone a vote on Sprit. He's not strex, and if Eloh is the dragon, he's probably not politicians. I doubt w/w with INH.

If he's doing weird thing with the Eloh vote, I guess Boomslang could be politician with him, but I find it very unlikely.

Moderate townread.

I might ISO some others if I find the time.

I'm hesitant for wilgy cause of the weird situation, but I believed TSP to be a bad lynch yesterday so I'll have to go with his word that he thinks wilgy is Cecil. I'm not 100% sold on it but it's something that can make sense, quin has replaced neverwhere and has been really making strides in terms of trying to solve the game and then timer is dead

So that leaves Epi. I'm gonna dig around some different people later once I get some down time since I hate being limited to one option

People on my clipboard to lynch:

Rico
Epi
-third person goes here

I'm gonna vote for Rico unless I see a compelling arguement to not. I see no one who 100% believes rico to be town. A person who will say "I would rather die than let rico be lynched because I'm that confident how he is playing is helping the game"

I could care less if you scumread me jack, because I already know I'm right. And the worst possible scenario, we remove an confusing town player, which is only a step above an unhelpful town player

I will not stand for this behavior any longer, my last nerve has been bothered. You want to put my out of context? FINE. Either do the right thing or die a fool.

But I'm sure you'd choose the latter

I think TSP, JoH, and Golden are all good lynch candidates?

JoH's reaction to Eloh's death is so peculiar. Its almost as if he didn't bkther to read Eloh's alignment. Odd now that more info on Cecil is in play.

A baaaadddie team of JoH, Eloh, and ??? makes sense.

I wish I had time to catch uo but I dont. I was vaguely suspicious of both JoH and Epi, and I refuse to miss a 3rd time in a row...

I'll vote JoH amd see how the cookies crumble when I can check next. Yeah I'll vote JoH.

Lost track of time today. Don't think Rico or INH is bad. Don't think I can get support for a TSP lynch at this point, even though I think his secrets are likely to be bad. So voting Jack, whom I remember distrusting earlier.

I may be quiet, Jack, but I've been following Golden's exploration of your inconsistencies as well. And I think Rico is putting in good work. Again, I would've preferred a TSP lynch, but I followed what was available to me.

So voting Jack, whom I remember distrusting earlier.

I want to further explore both Jack and Neverwhere tomorrow. And I want to hear what you, Speedchuck, have to say about Jack particularly after "hahaha don't vote Jack pls."

Boomslang - I've had very little impression. I don't remember anything Booms has contributed, and that worries me. According to votes, he's been after TSP for some time. Was the last vote on Made. Not a good look if TSP is town. Perhaps an okay look if TSP is scum. Double scumteams hurts voter analysis.

Curious about your top three here. Everyone seems to have a stronger read on Boomslang than I do. I don't get it.

Has boomslang posted today?

I'll knock him off of my list. I'm between

INH
Boomslang
Sprit

I want Jack around a little longer, and Rico... I wouldn't oppose a lynch there, but I also don't reeeallly think Rico is scum. It's iffy.

Much rather would have Rico die than INH

General consensus:
INH is probably mafia.

I'd be fine lynching INH or Epi. I think I'm leading Epi, but I could be convinced otherwise.

I'd support lynching INH today. I want to see where that would go. From there I could figure out where to go with Rico and Jack and maybe Spirtyo.

To clarify, I'd still be fine with an INH lynch, I think his death reveals more about others. But he seems a little more townie than sprit and sprit could reasonably be on both teams.

Voting for INH.

That leaves me with Jack - someone I didn't trust on day one at all but who, somehow, pulled me back in after he was silenced. Wilgy's point on his reaction to Elo's death as a potential slip holds real weight, and I don't have particular difficulty with the idea that his 'forced vote' could be a sham.

Here's what I think about Jack's twice being targetted for the vote steal. It is such an obvious overplay that it is designed to make us look at him. The question is to what end. Is it

A) To make us see it all as suspicious and like a deliberate tactic from his own team, and so to make us vote for him when he isn't a politician; or
B) The opposite - make it seem like he's being set up and so less likely to be bad (and so, not vote for him) when he is a politician.

I just can't tell which.

Well, inh... I'm still open to ideas. My vote is not in stone. I hope that Jack comes back and does what I ask him to in respect of his vehement opposition to the rico lynch. I didn't actually trust Jack before that, so... you know, I have to see where this leads. Also, I'm open to a sprityo vote at the moment.

I do think we have three people who seem like legitimate 'pairs' at this point

Wilgy/Tony
Jack/Rico
INH/sprit

Truth be told, here is my biggest dilemma...

I think Jack is more likely to be bad than rico
I think sprit is more likely to be bad than INH

But it looks like the choice is going to be between rico and inh.

I lean sprit over jack but I've been trying to get some content out of jack that makes me feel good but he's all off in his complete own other world in terms of where his head is at, and I can't see eye to eye with him easily.

Jack is Strex, thinks Rico is genuine about his politician reads, agrees with them. Opposing an eventual rico lynch or supporting an inh lynch could both get jack some credit if he's right.

Or, Jack is politician, knows rico is wrong, knows rico will take more heat than jack would for lynching an innocent inh.

I don't see Jack/Rico as w/w on the same team, at least. It would be very bold of Jack to so vehemently oppose rico's lynch in those circumstances.

I still find the regularity of targeting Jack to be rather inexplicable, all things considered.

That wasn't me saying I'm not into voting him. I still have Jack firmly in my sights as a possible. I don't think it's easily explicable even if Jack IS good.

I voted jack.

A part of me immediately regrets it's not rico, but jacks sudden vehement defender of rico was baseless and out of place, and his recusal from the position feels self-defensive. Besides, tying the vote allows me to see who breaks the tie and how.

Boomslang ISO:

Silly suspish post on Jack about lololololol. Stays after him just a bit on D1.

Says "if you (Golden) were baddie, you could make that claim (That Made is town) with accuracy"
Not how it works. There are two scumteams and an indie. Of course, scum knows who is on their team, so from their point of view, there is only one scumteam.
Possible scumslip, but I'm probably thinking too hard.

Again says that Golden earned CivBucks for the position on the Made lynch. Which means nothing with two scumteams.

Keeps mentioning Neverwhere as a possible scum for analysis/pursuit. Doesn't ever follow up.

Ridiculous theory on D2: "If Rico keeps switching voices, could he be the five heads of Hiram McDaniels?"
It's too blatant to be something a politician would say? WIFOM.

Votes TSP D2. Doesn't go after INH at all. LC is absent from all D1/D2 posts.

Votes TSP again. Never backs off on TSP being bad.

Moderate scumread. I see no reason Boomslang couldn't be Strex.

[nijuukyugou]

Listeners, I have good news. I put in a request to Station Management regarding some vacation time - y'know, the normal slipping the necessary forms under their door and waiting for the howls and shades of flashing orange light - and they have approved my request! I'll be in to R...R--Hooo...Rhude Island? Rued Island? Rowed Island? I'm not really sure how you say it or spell it, but Larry Leroy out on the edge of town tells me it's pretty nice.

This means, however, that over the next several days (tonight through next Monday, to be exact), some Day and Night periods may be extended, PMs may not get the same prompt attention from me as they have been in the past week, and broadcasts may happen later than usual. Thank you for bearing with me, and happy playing!

[speedchuck]

Neverwhere posted a bit D1, but said nothing of any value. No content. Sad!

Voted Made, while claiming it was for crappy reasons.

Spent a couple of posts on D2 excusing her D1 actions.

Doesn't think Roci is scum because of posting gimmick. Doesn't see a scum motive.

Gets replaced. Neverwhere's lack of content makes Boomslang look worse for the way he pushed at her I think.

QUIN TIME

High effort analysis of the werid TSP/Eloh lynch. Quin misunderstands how the Glow cloud works.

Gives a good theory about Eloh not having time to write the posts.

Asks if Rico is cursed. Beginning to doubt that Quin could be a politician. :P I don't think he'd go for this much wine. Could be wrong.

Golden, how is Quin outed as confirmed town?

Quin makes excellent points about Jack and Epi not targeting themselves. Rules Epi off of one scumteam, Jack off the other.

*reads through the rest*

Quin seems supatown to me.

[Boomslang]

I can't complain about that lynch.

I mean I'm not allowed. I could have voted for INH to stop it and I didn't.

How do you know voting for INH would've stopped the lynch of Jack? Unless you're Vanston, it just would've created a three-way tie.

For that matter, do we even know how ties are broken in this game?

[Boomslang]

Also, his continued criticism of Rico combined with the Jack flip means I want to take a look at spirityo. Hard to do for me as I'm on my phone all week, but will hopefully have some time to do it.

AGH I keep getting Rico and INH backward. Thought INH was the one with 3 votes last night. Point is, I could have broken the tie, and should have. I almost responded to INH and said "No, that would have been a three way tie."

And no, we don't know how ties are broken.

I'm stupid.
Continuing ISO.

[speedchuck]

EPI

Lots of jokes/non-hunty posts D1. Suspicion of TSP. Isn't a fan of the Made lynch train. Votes Dom with Golden.

Questions the ability to lynch TSP if he bad when people think he's a weak target.

Claims Tony is Marcus based on lynch pattern.

"P O P P Y That's me!"

"All I can say in my own defense is that I would never bring back this foolishness (not to mention that it is a clearer avenue for communication than what you had been doing)."

WIFOM that as you will. At this point in the game, I'm not sure it matters who was in Blue Velvet.

Pretty good questions regarding the lynch choices of D1. Could use more of that, but Epi keeps getting silenced.

Suspicion thrown around, but Epi seems to be doing the very opposite of tunnelling. He asks questions, sometimes makes statements about what he thinks is scummy, then moves on without pursuing.

Not enthused about my LC vote, and wants to question me about it. Possibly to dissuade other LC voters?

Good questions still. Trying to make people consider options and state positions.

Also believed INH is behind the curse on D2. Ready to lynch INH over it.

Has a townread on Lorab.

A bunch of night 2 stuff. Thinks Jack and INH might be teammates. Keeps asking people about INH.

Poses that none of LC's voters are his teammates. I agree.

Sass

Increasingly incriminating toward Jack and INH. Especially Jack. The days of non-tunnelling non-pursuing are over.

Backs off, promises to scrutinize the outliers. Immediately gets silenced.
1. Could be he backed off in order not to get caught in a possible town lynch
2. Could be that the outliers silenced Epi to avoid his scrutiny

Does some romance of three kingdoms analysis.

Suspects Timmer of hiding.

Keeps coming back to INH suspicion.

Kicks off some of the theorizing about TSP after the wonky lynch

Opposes the Rico vote.

Final read: I have no friggin idea. I go through all of this, and I don't feel like I've gained anything. He was right about Timmer, had decent defenses of himself, and asked some good questions.
At the same time, Nothing stopping epi from being really good scum.
The best argument for Epi being town is that he wouldn't silence himself. He's either a politician or town. I'd think that Epi would be against the strange WIFOM playstyle of the politicians.

SLIIIIIIGHT town read.
