I'm tempted to go with yesterday's eagle wagon, given that the town-Espeonage one was running counter to it, but I'd like to hear more about Prohawk's scum read on Harakiri, and Lord Mhork's push there as well, before deciding.

Zero reason to think NC is town at this point; he knows it, and IMHO we may as well just ignore his vote and all the WIFOM it brings with it.

The auction stuff doesn't convince me of Harakiri-scum. Lord Mhork, why the vacillation?

Sorry; dumb word choice. Why the push on Harakiri but feeling people out for my lynch without trying to get the Harakiri wagon more support?

Prohawk, still want to hear about why you think Harakiri is scum, but of the wagons going on right now, Harakiri does seem scummiest, and I'm not as convinced about eagle as I was before.

VOTE: Harakiri

Mostly wondering what would happen with increased pressure, and I was even less convinced of the eagle wagon.

Someone said that scum should be quickhammering these wagons; given that we're in multiball, why would one expect scum to tip their hand to their counterparts that way?

Harakiri did the wage freeze?

UNVOTE: Harakiri

I'll reassess.

Why would scum bother buying Wage Freeze and use it? I could see trying to get it on the cheap, but why not store it? If they get called on it, say they're waiting for a better time to pull it out. The odds of even being called on it are slight.

VOTE: Voidedmafia

Ghostlin thought he was sketchy near the end of his time here, he never backed up his Harakiri argument to my satisfaction, and since Ghostlin was apparently right on NC where I was wrong, I'll sheep him in abstentia.

Garuda, I had no good reason to want Harakiri lynched beyond finding his wagon more towny than eagle's and wanting to see what would happen.

So you didnt have a reason for Harakiri scum?
And you don't have a reason for Voided scum except Ghostlin who never explained?

Even though today might be the last day?

If it's multiball, how is today conceivably the last day?

...the two mafias win together. Oy.

Ghostlin did explain why he found Voided scummy.

I tried to lie to you in order to elicit a townie reaction such as "what the fuck are you talking about?" or "well, that's weird as shit". Instead, you figured out the actual setup from my bullshitting somehow.

Because I went back and read the sample role PMs; what you were saying didn't make sense, and I wanted to know what I'd missed. If I hadn't found an unusual win con of some type there I'd probably be voting you now.

I don't think I can ever see the town motivation in a single player remaining a player in their "defunct" hydra account. I was actually really surprised I didn't see more people clamoring for LB death for that move.
Basically its an excuse for coaching.

Except when your hydra partner just disappears and you have no idea what happened, it's hard to tell at what point you cut bait.

Well played, scum, and thanks for the game, Magua!
