I remember being a bit bothered by ment's behaviour during the last half hour previous to the Bubba lynch. He's not being just sceptical of the Bubba case, he's almost acting towards parody.

hmm
i'm not seeing the scumminess in Bubba, tbh
i'll vote him if it's needed, but I'm not feeling the scum vibe at all from him.
All right, he's willing to hammer, that's legitimate. We need a lynch after all and he wouldn't be the first to reserve opinion.

but come on people. We can't end the day without a lynch!
consensus is on Bubba. Me and venge are both ready to vote him (appparently)
but dkt asked that we hold off till he finishes his case on you + JA.
He's ready to be the hammer. So far so good.

i'm giving dkt another 20 mins to show up, then i'm hammering
Soon there will be a hammer. Just wait a little longer.

16 mins till day end
8 mins till I hammer
Only eight min left til the hammer. Suspense indeed.

we got 12 minutes if we decide to make this happen
Then dk's case appears and Ment jumps the chance to lynch JA or me like a starving man throwing himself at roast beef. There's 12 min left and Ment seems to believe a new lynch train can be made in this time.

Just nine min left, no one have jumped on his train. Bubba though, seems completly forgotten.

Bubba's on L-1
actually, if JA votes with us, we have enough to vote off Morgoth.
how much time do we have.
umm.. 6 minutes?
Still time to make a new lynch train. Six minutes is a life time.
Mentalist, on Mar 26 2009, 03:43 PM, said:
Gavin, make that FIVE minutes
Now five minuttes. Ment is truly wanting a lynch to happen isn't he just.
Mentalist, on Mar 26 2009, 03:44 PM, said:
come on, people
shit, if we get to two minute mark, i'll drop the hammer. otherwise we'll just waste tomorrow doing the same thing.
The two min mark now. Two min from now ment is willing to drop the hammer on Bubba, he just wants to see if three votes for me will appear in this time. Sure, that happens all the time.
Then dk has had enough and hammers.
Am I the only one who see Mentalist being a bit two faced here? There was no chance to build another train. We all see this. Ment took care to mention again and again and again that he would hammer, but it eventually became obvious he never would. I mean, come on. A train in two minutes? No way would that ever happen. Ment seems so desperate not to lynch Bubba it is almost painfull.
I'm starting to think my initial theory was sound. Bubba was the symp. Ment seems like a killer in panic. He doesn't want his symp dead, but he can't be seen not to want a lynch. With Bubba's unwillingness to even defend himself, there was very little to justify holding back the hammer. Better then to pretend you want to hammer and be just a min too late.
