I don't think it will swing in Thyrllan's direction, i'm around and will switch if necessary, I guess in light of Tennes' case I have to vote for Kessobahn although Thyrllan was a distinct possibility.

Hmm, looking at things I'm going to

Vote Kessobahn

HP's case does look odd, and if he was symping Thyr that's a strange way to go about doing it.
In any case, we need a lynch.

That said, I'd still like to hear from Thyr.

Also, a quick note:

There is no evidence whatsoever that there is even a Shogun in the game. The way I understand it, we are currently in a region of Japan where the Hojo hold sway, where Ise is important and where Ashikaga Masamoto is the Shogun's representative with a delegation of powers for this part of Japan, but where there is no open revolt or warfare against the Ashikaga yet, just scheming against the local powerbase of the Shogun (aka Masamoto) by a few ambitious lordlings. Kyoto does not even enter the picture seeing how it is several hundreds of miles away (we're in the Edo/Tokyo area, if I'm not mistaken, perhaps even a bit further up the east coast).

With that in mind, the Shogun likely is not present in this story. Instead, his power is probably represented by Masamoto's actions. The Shogun himself is just a mention in Shin's stories as the overall authority to which Masamoto and the other town players owe fealty, but it is up to them to subdue the Hojo like the loyal subjects they are, while the Shogun goes on with his daily routine of answering letters, admiring himself in the mirror, making poetry, drinking tea and she-boinging concubines.

[Gamelon]

Ok, looks like I need to catch up on several pages, should be able to make it back before time out

That's a good point. From the opening scene:

Ashikaga Masamoto has been appointed by the shogun as the new Kamakura- Kubo of the Eastern part of Japan. It is the job of all loyal vassels [sic] to support his efforts to find and stifle conspiracy and rebellion.

So Masamoto is probably the traditional power role that people are referring to as the 'Shogun', even though that is not in fact his title.

[Rashan]

Since I don't know where I will be at day's end:

vote Kessobahn.

Let's refer to Masamoto as Masamoto, then, please.

Anything else? We've barely heard from you at all, I'd like to get more than just a few lines...

[Emurlahn]

PSer, you missed Rashan's vote for Kesso.

Assuming there are no loopy voting lyrics, and it was actually a PSer mess up, Kesso is at L-1.

I'm here to hammer, but I'll give him some time for any last comments.

[Path-Shaper]

He may be gone already, but Rashan's vote doesn't count without a removal first.

[Emurlahn]

Wow. I should learn faith in my mafiagod.

So L-2. I'll still wait.

[Path-Shaper]

1 hour left.

[Emurlahn]

I'd have no objections to someone putting him at L-1. Getting nervous

[Tiamatha]

I'm around my votes on him. Rashan needs to remove vote. It is not going to change within the hour and Kesso said he won't be back to comment. We have roughly 47 minutes left to go by my watch.

[Galain]

Well this is frustrating isn't it. Where are Omtose and Meanas? Gamelon said he was reading up...he'd better be back before deadline!

[Tennes]

cutting it close now guys



Then again....the fact that we are struggling to get the lynch hopefully lends credence to the fact that kessoh is scum.
His cronies could be staying far away from the thread to stall the lynch.
