One of each. I suppose it could have been worse - much worse. Massive's death should prevent a night-kill, though he did not get to use his last night.

vote: Yanqush
because I don't know how to pronouce your name.

So the Punisher is more than likely a vig? Please, Punisher, don't help us out tonight (or any night) unless we somehow are confident that we've identified more scum than we can lynch in a day.

Enough discussion about our sk/vig. We need to lych someone. Lulu has two votes. Fiveothers have one each. I will change mine to get things going.

unvote: Yanqush; vote: caveman
Just so there will be two with 2 votes each.

I may not be able to post for the next three days (until Wednesday evening. I doubt I'll be missed.

Toodle is just a paranoid newbie, trying to participate yet avoid getting lynched. I am back from a three day business meeting and have no idea based on today's activity. I'm tempted to call one of you who jumped on Toodle, but I won't for now.

After reviewing the voting and posting patterns so far, I find caveman and Yanqush the most suspicious for their plain vanilla (plainer than my own) posts. DP has done a little voting, changing twice after his initial vote, all apparently random, since he last voted for a dead player.
Could the mod please take the dead players' names off the list of participants?


My vote is currently on
caveman
and I will leave it there.

No reaction from Phoebus to three votes? I wonder if he'll react to four. He suggested we go lurker hunting.

Drat! I
know
I posted right after mneme. What I had said was that I checked back and while I had seen that Phoebus had posted in other threads, I had not checked what he had written. Now that I have, it supports his claim of not having time to post much. I get that way too at times.
unvote: Phoebus


While I'm on the subject, I will be gone from Sunday the 11th through Saturday the 17th at Boy Scout camp (as a leader, not a scout).

I will return to where my vote had been.
vote: caveman


Maybe I just previewed it without hitting [submit]. :?

I am back from my week-long absence and will try to sort out this hoohah over Yanqush's posting pattern later. In the meantime, I will let you all know that I will be out for another week begiinning this Saturday. It's the last of my vacation for a long time.

Hmmm... Toodle was blocked. Toodle did not do the killing. This doesn't totally vindicate Toodle, but we have another fish to fry today.

Yesterday started and ended so quickly - I was out of town all week - that we didn't get much. With three bad guys on ice, I'm hoping there's only one more. If so, then it's clearly not Toodle. Anyone have anything they want to share?

KingEnigma wrote:Okay I reread everyones post, from the orginal lynching we had two people not vote for Yanqush. lulu and quailman.

Neither of these placed a vote on mneme either for the lynch. Looking back Quailman did place a vote onto Yanqush back during the random voting...
I originally placed a random vote on Yanqush. I later changed it to Caveman. Then on July 9th:
Quailman wrote:[bolding removed]unvote: caveman; vote: Yanqush[/br]
I never changed this vote. My name appears in two or three vote counts. And I explained that yesterday came and went while I was on a week-long backpacking trip in Wyoming.

for using incorrect 'facts' to try and throw suspicion my way. The fact that Mr_Gnome_It_All followed you night two doesn't clear you. It just means
you
didn't try to kill that night.If we don't come up with a better candidate I will upgrade that to a vote.

I'd also like to volunteer to be Mr_Gnome_It_All's target tonight.

An interesting development.

for now. The story about your ability is pretty good. Congrats if you just made all that up. And the voting pattern seems inconsistent with mafia, as you point out. Must rethink...

That sounds a lot like a serial killer to me. He died the first night. Are you suggesting that in a minigame we have

On July 19th lulu muumuu wrote:just to avoid any kind of this thing happening to me, i have notified the mod of my limited access at the moment, and i will ask for a replacement if i think my circumstances will a hinderance to the game.
That was her last post. I'd sort of like to hear from her or her replacement before trying to make up my mind.

1. Phoebus began yesterday with a vote for mneme, who turned out to be a member of the minions of doom (mafia). Could be a serial killer, but due to his attack on Yanqush, starting the ball rolling on his day one lynch, I'd speculate that he's not a minion of doom

2. Yesterday, while it would have been still too early to reveal that she was a cop, Toodle went against the quickly developing flow (there were only two votes for mneme at that point) and voted for Phoebus, who had started it all based on seemingly sound logic. The day ended before Toodle could post again.

3. Two kills that first night, including an SK, none the next night, and only one last night. It could be that Toodle is the remaining minion of doom? She voted neither Yanqush nor mneme.

4.
On day one, with Yanqush one vote from a lynch and the game slowing to a crawl, Toodle wrote:What's to say? My vote is where I think it should be.

Maybe a deadline would help?
And where was Toodle's vote? On Phoebus, yet she claims to have gotten her 'guilty' result on the night following this day's voting.

5. If there is a second SK, then perhaps the kill was blocked by a doc on night 2, and last night's kill was perpetrated by the SK with minion Toodle being blocked. Or perhaps one or the other tried to kill someone who is immune to night kills.

So if Toodle is a real cop, then Phoebus is likely an SK and there's still a minion of doom ou there. If Toodle is not a real cop then IMO she's our minion of doom and the game might be over (i.e., no 2nd sk).

Still, I'd like to hear from Lulu
or her replacement
before voting.

Those last two posts appeared while I was typing that lengthy one. I just realized that if Toodle is a minion of doom, there must be another SK. Perhaps one that can only kill on alternate nights. Or a vig killed DP.

One more thing - If I was a real cop, and I paid attention on day one to note that Phoebus had started the ball rolling to lynch Yanqush, who turned out to be evil, I'm pretty sure I would have looked in another direction to try to find scum.

It's also a common ploy when the going gets tough for the scum to claim cop. Guess
you
fell for it.

I don't know who's lying, but one of them clearly is, and right now Phoebus' story looks a little more consistent. Toodle has recently played in newby games, so perhaps she overlooked the vote-for-your-buddies ploy. As I said, she voted for neither, though she claims to have a guilty verdict on Phoebus day 2. That would explain not voting for mneme, but when day one was dragging on, she carefully avoided voting for Yanqush, instead opting to vote for the person who started the ball rolling against him. Then, when Yanqush turned out to indeed be evil, she used her investigation on the guy who started the bandwagon! If anything, I would think that maybe the bandwagon starter had something more concrete than what he revealed, and chose someone else. Could be a newby mistake, but I'm not convinced either way yet.

I think DP knew what he was doing when he blocked Toodle. And Caveman - Just because Phoebus once said that Toodle's claim of Daredevil was reasonable does not support it. If Phoebus is scum as you say he is, how can you believe anything he says. It could indeed be possible that Toodle is Daredevil and yet evil. How else could the mod insert a GF who can't be scoped out by a cop?

And I still don't understand why Toodle would investigate someone who instigated a lynch of a scumbag. A real cop seeks out evil, not heros.

The alignments are getting clearer in my mind. At one point Toodle said it appeared that you and Phoebus were ganging up to lynch mneme-scum. I thought that a bit odd, because it really seemed more like just Phoebus.
That's
the post where Toodle distanced herself from you. If Toodle's death doesn't end the game, then i think it's because caveman = Dr. Doom, and he's currently trying desperately to save his last minion. I'll bet you can't kill on your own, once you lose your last minion.

I strongly suspect that Mr_Gnome_It_All, KingEnigma and Lulu muumuu all have some sort of powers. I will wait to hear from them before casting my vote.

Right. I've read through the thread at least three times. I can't remember what King Enigma or caveman said what they could do. And Lulu is absent. I am wondering if claims from all would help at this point. I'm generally against mass claims though.

Hold on a minute! I seem to be the only one here who's playing devil's advocate. Caveman is convinced. I think Mr_Gnome_It_All is also. I'm not sure about KingEnigma. Pheobus and you are out of the equation. That leaves me and Lulu Muumuu, whom I would like to see appear or get replaced before committing.

Actually, right now I am leaning towards believing you, but I hate to rush into these things. Pheobus' role claim is as believable as yours. As I've said before, kudos to him for making up a good one if that's what he's doing. OTOH, as caveman so astutely pointed out, "we'd be better off risking killing a self-protected townie vs. a cop."

I agree that this was weighted heavily in favor of the town. Between the Punisher and Spiderman alone, the bad guys didn't stand a chance. And I figured if I could convince the town that I was a one-shot vig I'd last through the game with my immunity to night kills.
