Ugh, seriously?! Whoever made the real politics analogies earlier was right
I'm happy Jalan got lynched, but I don't think we should just let it lie because of that.

I won't tell you what Shadow's do 
As kindly requested above by my dear co-mod:
Guys, the game is getting super-complicated here. Since I now have a volunteer co-modding and absolutely want to make it certain that I won't make mistakes (yeah, right) and that it is as easy as possible for them, I would very much like for you all to submit actions in a single PM, organized as follows:
Day Phase cycle X:
Movement phase 1:
Night Phase:
Movement phase 2:
This will make the game so much easier for us, and will allow us to actually be on schedule with updates. It may take you five minutes more (and a whole lot more if you're on a phone) but it will be paid off by us actually being able to reply to stuff and look things up.

So you're sticking to that you picked Nimander but it came up Barghast instead Fanderay?
Shadow alt dying makes me wonder if that was somehow related to the lynch, like maybe it wasn't an LP (obviously) but could change the picks?

I think he might actually have hinted that way at some point, though not sure if it was intentionally. Jalan said a whole bunch of things after the day 3 lynch results were posted, some of it practically conflicting other things he said, so it's hard to be sure what he was really getting at.

If I had to guess someone probably has an ability that blocks someones ability to appoint a Judge and the player with the next highest votes for Judge in pms to PS then becomes the Judge.
We've had two straight lynches where the mayor claims the person they picked didn't actually get picked. I don't think it's a coincidence. Makes me want to look a whole lot closer at players that said they didn't want to be elected in the first place. Like they might know something that the rest of us don't.

If so, it'd have to be a blanket-block that just stops the first choice, whoever it is, rather than targeting a certain player and making them ineligible to be judge. Jalan said he was planning to screw us over and picked a different judge than his on-thread pick or me. And you didn't reveal that you were picking Nimander, so I don't think someone could've gotten two lucky guesses like that if it were a targeted ability.
Or maybe they target the Mayor candidate and not the Judge choice?

I just realized it could be that Nimander never actually picked a lynch canidate and it automatically defaulted to the next highest canidate.

I am 99% certain I have computed everything. Now, the trick is: did I update all of you?
I am not sure about that as I am probably an oxygen deprived moron.
Therefore I will just leave you guys with the CF but not yet post the numbers for the Investments.
PM me if you miss a result on your actions.
JUDGE WALLACE'S OFFICE is dead and removed from the game. Factions who need the Location for their Location victory can no longer achieve a Location Victory unless they controlled JUDGE WALLACE'S OFFICE prior to it being blown up. All alts on JUDGE WALLACE'S OFFICE are moved to Mud Street during Movement Phase 2.
GRASP becomes WANTED and must update their Location on thread.
Liosan is dead. He was the maddened Iron Worker from the Corporate Cult and was at Mud Street.
Silanah is dead. It was a Longhorn Bull of the Aces faction at Outlaw's Refuge.
