This time of day works really well for me; considering I currently have the free time and BR is the only one who hasn't checked in, I am going to end Day 0 and start Day 1 momentarily.

If this will be an issue, speak or forever hold your peace.

I'm waiting to cast my vote. I'm not sure an L and Light influenced lynch is a good idea.

Dang! Well, maybe someday I'll do a sequel and make it family-friendly!

Also, Simon's desire to be L is commendable.

They are God of Death, I believe. Their "Death Notes" are books. They write a persons name and manner of death, and poof. Light (Kira) found one such notebook after it had fallen into earth.

Woah, seriously? You started earlier today, yes? So I presume you've been watching it all day. Then again, since you are ill, there's no better remedy.

I also presume you like it?

Host, are all the lynch choices except the last one, for one lynch only? Thank you.

Of course! Anyone may ask all the questions they want either via PM or the thread.

Doesn't mean they'll get an answer though.

All I have to say in response is: The options are written the way they are for specific reason.

Is the specific reason "to sow confusion and dissent among the players"?

What do you think?

Very well. Explain your intentions.

I did. It's in that post. It's raising an issue on the L/Light type of voting based on how many connections or how much awareness could potentially form in both sides and which side would end up with more advantage, if this type of voting would be established over a long period of time.

But instead, I started pinging with preferring to name Light Kira (even though I said I'm willing to not do that), with being too drawn in by the theme and thus making too many assumptions based on it rather than relying on the specific-written roles (even though I apologized for making that logical jump) and being called a bullshitter for not being entirely sure if suggesting what BTSC connections could form is a way of hinting or not.

Yes, on a three-game streak now. Can't wait for you to say you think I'm bad by default.
