So, Turnip Head...

I'm still a firm believer that Epignosis was a New Rogue, with his gambit in searching for a sidekick on Day 1. Turnip Head immediately applied to be the sidekick. Now this doesn't necessarily incriminate Turnip Head at all, because not everyone picked up on the idea right away. But looking at what happens next on Day 1.

I don't know that I make much of Epi's abrupt conclusion either Daisy, but I still find myself puzzling over
Elo's words here. She says she's confused because the roles don't make the win conditions clear, but that's only true for the Arch-villains and the Detectives, though the New Rogues are also ambiguously worded as well since it doesn't say
which opposing factions they need dead. But the Old Rogue and Independent win conditions are stated quite clearly. And then right after that she misspeaks by implying that being an Old Rogue was a bad thing, but then maybe that's just how she read Epi's post about her. So idk what I think exactly, I feel pretty strangely about it and want to hear more from her

So after becoming Epignosis's sidekick, Turnip Head voices a suspicion of Elohcin. Yes it is a Day 1 suspicion, and Turnip Head didn't push the idea long, so it should be taken with a grain of salt, but we must remember that timmer replaced Elohcin, and that Turnip Head has been a firm supporter of timmer being a good guy since then. Turnip Head says this is because they had BTSC together on the map, along with DharmaHelper. I'm still fascinated by this. If they gained BTSC on Night 1/Day 2, or whatever, how are they still trusting each other on Day 8?
Another note I have talked about before, I believe that if the baddies gain BTSC on the map, then it translates to "finding each other" as teammates. The reason I say this is because the game would be far too unbalanced for a team of baddies to depend on one player to find the rest. If that player was killed on Night 1, the New Rogues would be left to fend for themselves the rest of the game without knowing. So I believe the New Rogues have good reason to utilize their moves and move around the map.
Why else would timmer leave BTSC with Turnip Head and DharmaHelper? If I found someone on the map, I would stay there to have a chat partner if I could. But timmer said he left, and gained BTSC with Roxy. By the sounds of it, it happened essentially during their next move. If timmer and Turnip Head trusted each other so much, why would they forgo BTSC? I believe they gained it permanently (along with DharmaHelper), and so they left their squares together to look for more partners. I also believe Roxy was Captain Cold, and that she had the right idea in killing Epignosis, and later DharmaHelper.
Anway, it didn't take long for Turnip Head to start defending timmer after his replacement.

I'm just afraid that you'll disappear and then I won't get to enjoy your pearls of wisdom
Actually, Timmer really bothers me. Admittedly, there are 2 reasons for this:
1. I have a feeling Epig somehow found out Eloh is really bad, and maybe now is backing off because he feels bad for Timmer...but I could be wrong
2. Since he started playing, I feel like he's been saying all the "right" things. I can't really back it up with a case, but it's a feeling. Also, the fact that Eloh really did answer in a weird way when she was still playing, and I also feel like Timmer knows it and was trying to get himself out of it in a very smart way.
I doubt Epi would back off Timmer just because he feels bad :P
I don't know re: Timmer though. Elo was feeling very genuine to me towards the end, but a lot of that had to do with her asking to be lynched instead of Epi. She got replaced before that could ever actually happen though, so maybe I'm putting too much stock into her empty words.
My question is why would Timmer bring up the Elo thing if he's bad? He could just be trying to be slick, sure, but I feel like that's an unnecessary move to make this early, especially since it seemed like public opinion was on Elo's side before Timmer subbed in.
And Turnip Head has been vouching for timmer every since Bass 1.0 was lynched. As for why players find that to be less suspicious than llama (a confirmed Detective) vouching for Sophie.
But it's been the same thing since then. Turnip Head and timmer have had very polite and calculated interactions. And then there are the vote patterns.
Day 2
Bass_the_Clever --- timmer (7), Turnip Head (8)
Day 3.1
AceofSpaces --- timmer, Turnip Head (unofficial)
Day 3.2
blindfaeth --- timmer, Turnip Head (also unofficial)
Day 4
AceofSpaces --- timmer (8), Turnip Head (16)
Day 5
MovingPictures --- timmer (5), Turnip Head (14)
(This is the one I am most displeased with, when Turnip Head came in to drop the hammer on MovingPictures07 even though he was so clearly mind-controlled)
Day 6
DREAM --- Turnip Head (1), timmer (10)
Day 7
MetalMarsh89 --- Turnip Head (2), timmer (5)
And look at how many non-New Rogues have been lynched after the lynch of Bass on Day 2. 10 smash points says they vote together again today.
