That's because if he were another baddie, it's possible that his teammates would allow him to be lynched and try to distance themselves from him (aside from Eloh, who was probably in trouble if he went down). On the other hand, if he were zombie he'd have been forced to use the switch, since it would have been his only chance before dying. If that's the case, Epi has no power anymore (except possibly using his team's NK), and thus is less valuable than the other baddies, who all have other powers to use. If everyone feels ok with an Eloh lynch, I think it has the potential to hurt the baddies more. Hope that makes sense. On the other hand, if people are more sure about Epi or feel a lynch for him would yield more info that's a fair argument to make.

People are mentioning Russ, so I did a reread of him and saw nothing alarming until I got to this. This is a piece of astonishingly clear reasoning, so clear in fact that it leads one to wonder if he didn't just know that Epi was a zombie all along. It would be a crafty and clever play to out a teammate and then later have the chance to say "I told you he was bad early on! How can I be his teammate?"

Of course, it could just be that Russ has an extraordinarily logical mind.

(yes, yes, I realize that this is all very WIFOM, but worth considering I think.)

The recent developments have made me really comfortable with my vote for Epig, so I'm hoping for the best there.

I know MP & Ambray were asking for my opinion of Boogs. FWIW I was with him in his apartment yesterday from 4 until 11ish, and any time we were catching up in the thread/posting, he wasn't deliberating in baddie chatrooms. For whatever that's worth. So any theories, etc etc is all him during that time period, he had no coaching or whatnot.

I always have this image of couples that play mafia...

Awkward dinner table conversations, "Oh, what were you doing on the computer just now?" "Nothing."

lol. That 'nothing' is really them sending in the kill for the person they've just said 'nothing' too.

"Darling, what's for dinner tonight?" "Perhaps you can go ask your teammates who you plotted with TO KILL ME!!"

I wish I was close with someone who would have even the slightest interest in this game.

You also thought it was weird she suddenly followed suit on your vote for me, something I also find strange. Then suddenly you decide you do not trust me for... whatever reason. And vote for me.

Not "suddenly decide." I haven't trusted you for a long time, which is why I voted for you on day one.

In any case, my vote managed to get you to contribute more than you have in the entire game so far, and I view that as a worthy accomplishment in itself.

It may be his playstyle, but it doesn't mean he is good.

Talk about another one.

*Votes DP*

Any reason you're targeting me in particular? Not any other lower posters?

It isn't just your low posting. You say nothing when you do post.

Well that's really descriptive of you.

It's in keeping with everything else he's said so far this game. I don't know why people are so intent on giving him a free pass when he refuses to participate.

This.

Votes DP

Last year we went through many games and had btsc. Some games happening at the same time. A record so far as I know I think it was 4-5 games in a row. I am sure he will back me up on this and clarify more.
I never once 'prodded' him to post more. Why would I do that b/c that would be so un-Porcu-like.

Why not me?
I was already garnering suspicion when you started commenting on it, and one might think I was an easy target.

Actually, historically, DP is an easy target. he gets lynched quite often since he tends to be quiet, more so when he is a civ than not. He talks more when hes a civ cause his teammates prod him. For old times sake, this goes out to you DP:
