Hmm, no-one. But then why not go for ansible, HO or me even? Doesn't make sense for a killer to go for Silencer unless they thought he knew something.

Feeling a little under the weather and can't offer too much in the way of a case, so apologies. You're a hell of a player, but I'm not voting Trull and between you and Shin, I vote you.

Vote The Dude

Speculation:
So the vig did Vengeance for unknown reasons and the killer did Silencer to get him out of the way? Silencer was getting voted yesterday, but not today, so he was an increasing risk to someone. Who was he sniffing after today the most?

Or Vice versa, killer got Veng for unknown reasons and vig got Silencer because he seemed scummy somehow?

Will the vig continue to strike randomly ? So we should focus on a killer. I think a lynch would be hard, considering there too few here to vote and time is short (as others have stated)

Thoughts?
HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

Hope you get well soon.

Looking more like we've got a chance at a lynch now. If everyone around votes Dude we'd be L-1, I think.

How about instead of asking for thoughts on choices of kills (trying to divine a killer's intent is the very definition of WIFOM), how about you comment on the cases pushed forward and vote accordingly? Saying 'we don't have enough and time is short' sounds like you're just giving up. We need to lynch to find scum, and at the moment you're contributing to neither.

Almost done reading up.

The dude would need one less person online than shin, because of the people who had voted already, liz and ment had voted shin while only I had voted dude, and they had equal votes.

Though with ansible on now aswell, both shin and the dude are possible with the numbers we have.

how about you comment on the cases pushed forward and vote accordingly? Trying to understand things, is all

Actually, with ansible there's 7 of us, so theoretically we could lynch anyone.

My reasoning for why I voted the dude is on the last page(viewing 40 per page).

We were discussing the possibility that we wouldn't be able to get a lynch at all. Not being able to get a lynch is usually bad, because we go into the next day with the same information, and often end up just lynching the person that we failed to lynch the day before, and so it puts us behind.

only thing that really comes to mind is.... DiBs, actually.

since after the Dude made a tenuous connection to him in the Shin case, Tapper wnt to town on him. but even I think that's too weak to warrant a vote.


problem is, Tapper played that exactly how I would expect someone like Venge to play it if he was Shin's symp. it's so obvious, that majority of the time it's dismissed and ignored.

I think i'll stick with it for now.


Granted, but that gets a bit WIFOM quite quickly. I dunno, the post was definitely weird, but it isn't conclusive enough one way or another for me to get voting about it. I'll take a look through Tapper's posts later and see if there's something else.


Then about an hour and a half later he's gone.

As spring arrived in the north, heavy rain and thunderous storms blew across the land in all directions. Ma Teng, sleeping soundly in the center of the loudest storms, dreamt that he was a tiger drowning in a river made of phoenixes. His cries brought his daughter, Ma Yunlu, who awoke her father. Teng related his dream, and Yunlu said: "The tiger can run free in any rain, but cannot swim across the river. Father, could this be an omen of looming danger at the river?" Suddenly wary, Ma Teng summoned his general Pang De and bid him investigate the river nearby.

At a camp along the river, the Lu general Li Tong was inspecting the finished dam. A messenger from a secret Lu official had given him the location of Ma Teng's main camp, hidden in a deep valley north-east of Jin Cheng. Satisfied from the inspection, Li Tong ordered his forces into their positions to prepare for diverting the river into the valley of Ma Teng's camp. As the soldiers were quietly getting into position, reports arrived of guards found dead at the southern gate of the camp. Suddenly the main supply tent burst into flame and black-clothed figures emerged from the shadows on all sides to cut down Li Tong's staff and guards. Drawing his sword into his left hand and his battle axe into his right, Tong fell upon the assassins, gutting and mauling the enemy wildly.

Li Tong called to his soldiers to retreat northward across the dam, while Guanxi troops entered the camp from all sides. "Finish them all!" called Liu Ba, a subordinate general, who then called his guard into a defensive line. While Ba held off the enemy, Li Tong brandished his axe and smashed aside the locking pins. With a rush, the dam's gate fell and the river rushed southwards, drowning Liu Ba, Lu and Guanxi soldiers alike.


Silencer is dead. He was Liu Ba, General Who Dominates the North of the Lu Dynasty.

The whole Tapper-Shin thing is really starting to feel rather blatant now. I don't know what to think of that, I can see it going either way, although I think it's more likely someone is stringing Tapper up.

There's not a rush. We do seem to have had a surge of activity, and we still have about a fair bit of time.

I would prefer if people looked at the events and made a decision based on that, because while voting for just to get a lynch is often necessary it may not be in this case, and it does often just let people coast without giving info on their opinions.
