    I admit that I would work hard on covering up my writing style if I was forced to submit kill write-ups. However, there are limits to the felonies I would commit against the English language, and ending sentences with prepositions goes beyond the pale.

    Have you no sense of decency, sir?

    I still find the whole Reenk bandwagon from last round incrediably suspicious. Its bringing back too many memories of GH's election in mafia I.

    Vote: Seamus

    Third on the bandwagon.

    This seems to come up in most games and somehow usually works against me so ill clarify from the start. English is my first langauge... just i tend to butcher the thing.

    I was wondering about the N on the end of TinCow's name, I was thinking the N is quite far from W, though I suppose someone could have hit the N whilst going for the space bar and hit both

    tincown (i was practising it) Its fairly possible to accidently do it, but that would suggest someone who types quite quickly and carelessly... or of course someone covering thier tracks...

    To put myself in the mafia's shoes, i would be very careful not to hint towards myself, i would spell check in US english (because im UK) if normally very well written i would try and find someone less well written's style to try to mimic, if usually badly written i would find the best spoken member and try to mimic his style, with religious attention to grammar...

    As for the voting im waiting for some analysis from CA as well or any other info people can provide as i remain unsure... ill Vote Abstain just for the moment
    In remembrance of our great Admin Tosa Inu, A tireless worker with the patience of a saint. As long as I live I will not forget you. Thank you for everything!

    Words....I live by.....butcher the english langauge, my Grade 12 english teacher would have liked to beat me over the head with a ruler....had it not been for the fact that it would only make thing's worse in the long run....

    I am going to wait for a good analysis....rather then just throwing my vote around....Vote:abstain
    BTW, not saying there not good so far....but anyone can just take or study old kill write-ups and come up with good idea's....and even make there sentence strucue (damn vista... no spell check) similar to anyone else's.....

    I find the fact that you think that is "incredibly suspicious" suspicious.

    One of the reasons I gave up my claims to becoming the Po was to continue this noble tradition of abstaining, courteously

    I find it suspicious your finding it suspicious that Lord Winter found it suspicious that he thinks you performed something suspicious, which is unto itself suspicious.

    You two are inventing something to argue over.

    The bandwagon in general, not seamus in particular. I don't exactly have enough to go off of yet. I just randomly joined one on the bandwagon and went with the rule of 3.
