Well it's still night but I'm not really averse to talking at night, especially in M&P games. Whether you sound off during the day or night the WIFOM can still always creep in.
So anyways, we're in a situation here we don't normally get into - that of having missed a lot of lynches. Generally, yeah, it's bad for town to miss many lynches, but on the other hand it is REALLY bad for scum. Scum is absolutely vested in getting rid of town in as few nights as possible, both because it means less info from the thread itself and also because it's fewer nights for them to be found by a healer. Plus, in general, scum tend to be more involved in the game due to their role. That doesn't necessarily mean they'll post more, but they're more likely to be keeping track of it and not miss day timing out. So given that we've had many days with a lot of people not voting, I suggest that we may be able to narrow down the scum by looking at who did and didn't vote a lot.

Gen watched the Fujiwari troops from his post on the Western wall. The enemy soldiers seemed intent on completing their entrenchments, but not much else. He turned, the banner attached to the back of his armor whipping in the early Spring wind. "Keep an eye on their forward pickets. I'm going for a piss."
"But we don't know how many of them there are. Should we get an accurate count?" replied a bushy eyebrowed spearman.
Gen stopped, turned back and said "We've all been speculating on that for a while now. But the truth is for us we really only need to worry about one thing, we hold this wall. That's all you need to know. I'm going for a piss."
And what a lovely, long arching piss it was.
Day 1 is over. No one was lynched.
It is now Night 1. Please submit your actions ASAP.

That is a lynch.
Cast is dead. He was Yasuhide Narumasa and Peanutbutta of Arai Castle
The Takeda spy watched from his position on the small hill well beyond the Fujiwari line. So far not much was happening, the Fujiwari seemed uncharacteristcally cautious. They seemed more content to shift their formations and send messages to and fro. The spy plucked a nearby grassroot to chew on and absently scratched his arse. The flies on this hill were getting worse.
A new set of motion caught his eye, on the plain just East of the castle a larger skirmish was taking place. It seemed a group of messengers and escorts had encountered a small sortie from the castle. I furious exchange of blows with several soldiers toppling from their saddles. Some got up again, a few others did not. The agent bit through his grass stem and turned back to the main field of Fujiwari soldiers. He hoped something worthwhile happened soon, so he could make a decent report.

D'riss is dead. He was Kenshiro Mochizuki and Lady Bliss of Edo Castle.
Most of the 3rd day of the siege saw small skirmishes back and forth, mostly arrow fire and small groups of warriors squaring off in challenges for personal honor and glory. Just past dark saw a main thrusting attack of the Fujiwari. The wall defenses were overwhelmed in two different places as Fujiwari troops swarmed past the shallow swampy pit and scaled the sloped stone wall. The fighting was fierce, but the Fujiwari couldn't get the numbers over wall quickly enough to reinforce their breach and were pushed back and down over the wall. Dead and dying were counted on both sides, with heads of particularly important personages collected. General Ota pushed his men to shore up the defenses through the night, and the dead were given their proper respect.

Captain Nagao Tamemasa looked at the defenders arrayed before him in the courtyard. The siege had taken its toll. Bored, desultory looks, disheveled armor and posture that spoke of defeat, despite the fact the walls still held, and there were defenders still standing to defend them.
Tamemasa was afraid, knowing that one strong push by the Fujiwari could very well shatter them. And worst of all, these men seemed disinclined to even raise a weapon in response.
Surely the gods were raging...or laughing.
It is Day 6. 1 minutes remaining

Jalan is dead. He was Gendo Kajiwara of Arai castle and HiddenOne.
Let's count for each person the number of times they didn't vote by the end of the day, the number of times they voted on the biggest train and how many times they voted somewhere else:
missed vote/voted someone else/biggest train
Barghast - 2/1/3
Galain - 2/0/4
Alkend - 0/3/3
Korbas - 1/2/3
Tellan - 1/0/5
Trake - 2/1/3
Mockra - 2/2/2
Gait - 2/2/2
Eloth - 3/1/2
Okaros - 3/2/1
Anthras - 5/0/1
I don't really remember much from Tellan all game, but other than day 1 he's been voting on the biggest train every single day. Galain also surprised me with that high of a number, and one of his missed lynch counts was only a miss by a few minutes.
So when day resumes, I think we should be looking most closely at Tellan and Galain, as well as Korbas, because I just don't see scum missing all that many votes.
