Also, 3 kills is a lot on one day. If there's one vig, it was probably used on Silencer, which could be the vig thinking it was best to close one avenue of speculation... but since all we thought about Silencer was symp at best, that wouldn't deliver immediate pay off anyway. Would probably have been better to hold it until end-game.

The train stopping through a kill seems to be a deliberate scum strategy... twice now. Whether that is to deflect attention, as PB initially suggested, or an attempt to get us to get no lynch, I don't know, but it is somewhat interesting. And worrying.


its creating a massive amount of confusion so i would guess its a deliberate attempt to keep us off balance. I dont see the advantage though in scum stopping a lynch? Surely us lynching town by mistake is their goal?

Unless we feel 'obliged' to try to lynch the same person again the next day without much discussion. In that case, they get another kill without anyone paying attention to them.


I would suggest we ignore it tbh, as the wifom regarding their motivation will lead us nowhere.

there is plenty of content on thread regarding shin and ment this morning to worry about, without trying to determine if the scum had the dude or tattersail down as a symp. Hell taking out someone on a train is acting more like a catalyst than a block.

Well, that depends on how many of those online have already cast a vote - day 1, there was no-one left/willing to vote Tattersail bar himself, in the end. But I agree, doing it an hour before deadline when there are like 6 people left who haven't voted will see them place their own in quick succession.

As for yesterdays vote, trull made a few mistakes and I liked shins case. He never really responded to it either in a way I found satisfactory, but i think there isnt enough there to convince people as he just hasnt been about enough and like myself missed the end of yesterday. As for the ment vote, i think there is some merit in the case, and the heavy handed response to what i felt was a good case built by ansible stunk of smugness, but i cant help but think tapper is acting very protective of shin and is putting pressure on people in reaction to accusations. Ment seems to have been defending himself since the beginning, even before i felt there was any real pressure. Shin has been involved in making a few cases and although he is accussed of pushing or leading, it seems like he has been getting in early and riding the wave more than anything.

I can see how you'd see me protecting Shin, but that has not been my intention.
I didn't like the Dude's play since the end of day 1 where he voted for Silencer, and much less on day 2.
That was my reason for going after him.

I agree with your assessment of Ment at this point in time, but that is a thing from late day 2 and his reply to Ansible right now. As you can read, I saw nothing at all in lynching him day 1 and barely paid attention to him on day 2 apart from one minor exchange. That it came after a vote on Shin had nothing to do with Shin either, just with Ment suggesting I'm a symp - there has been some discussion on that subject, too, between Ment and Lizra.

Right, I'm only reading this information without processing it enough.

One thing I want to say though, Grief, if you're going make me defend myself, at least mention my defence and continue it. I understand we were pushed for votes because day 2 was ending, but what about day 3, now?

If I don't reply, most likely I'm preoccupied at something else.

It would like to hear back from ment before i decide which way i am voting today. i think all three of you would be good cases given the play at the moment. Of the three shin is my least suspected and people will no doubt say its cause we are paired or something, but i cant tell if tapper is symping him, fake symping him, or just playing his game and shin has been caught up in it. Ment has been defensive since day 1 and dismissive of any cases against him. tapper has been in the middle of everything and a driving force so far in the game while also seeming to symp another player to the extent that that player is even concerned.

dibs is making me nervous. Despite the fact I'm allegedly always wrong, he continually likes my Trull's son case...

I should really say that there is no purposeful subtext that pushes for my innocence in my defense of Tatt. Sure we could read it as such, but understand that this was not my intention. I was hoping that adding my situation would emphasize the reason for why I refused to vote Tattersail at the time. Based on the common reaction of some of the newer players in the last couple games, I didn't think this was something to go batshit over. The sad part of this is that even when Tattersail turned out up innocent, those defending him still get the heat. I'm convinced the case against me is just derailing us from the important suspects.


Well i may have missed something but this is the only real response to two votes trull had and to me its fairly unsatisfactory. Given the subsequent events though i dont think there is as much to go on there.

@Tapper - Be careful with that classic JC
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.
