The Settlement [Concluded]

[Sigurd]

I have something to say.

taka's role pm is fake! He's almost certain to be an usurper! Lynch taka!!!!

That is all

Why do you think so?

Why do you think so?

You'll have to blindly trust me on that.

I completely agree with boudica on the problems with W_E's story. I urge everyone to read her post. I'll also add the following: what are the odds that W_E would have a role that doesn't even become useful until Iffo is released, when Iffo's role in itself doesn't become useful until The Watcher is released? That seems like one step too far on the role balancing.

While I am loathe to abandon the suspicion on CB, if I had to pick one and only one suspect for Iffo at this point, I would pick White_eyes:D.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

White_eyes is clearly avoiding posting his role pm.

I don't necessarily think White_Eyes:D is Iffo - I just think that his Watcher's Apprentice claim is nonsense. Given Capt. Blackadder's posted message from Sasaki, I would still say CB is the most likely suspect for Iffo. Maybe White_Eyes:D simply invented his role to make himself seem more useful to town than - what I deduce - is a vanilla common man role. Not sure why you would challenge me White_Eyes:D, but I guess its just a knee-jerk reaction to my comments on you. If I were to accept and you ARE the townie I think you are then Pisuf, Iffo and any Usurper aligned roles still lurking around would be laughing into their hats watching two common men dook it out in the mud - weakening town's voting strength.

reject: White_Eyes:D

I DO understand how duelling will become useful, but I think we have plenty to act apon without me getting my hoe dirty quite yet.

I don't necessarily think White_Eyes:D is Iffo - I just think that his Watcher's Apprentice claim is nonsense.

The way I see it, W_E is trying to avoid being seen as Iffo by setting himself up as the anti-Iffo. He acts like he's got special information and abilities to fight Iffo, going so far as to invent appropriate sounding words and capitalize them to make them seem more significant. He's gone out of his way to make sure everyone knows he's claiming to be the only person who can stop Iffo, which is totally pointless since he wasn't under threat of lynch and doing so would only have made him a target for Iffo if it was true.

Also worth noting another inconsistency in W_E's role claim. W_E claims he can "Seal" or "reseal" Iffo. That has nothing to do with how he was bound in the first place. Iffo was bound because he signed a contract, kind of a trick of the devil type thing. Why would W_E be "resealing" Iffo, when Iffo was never "Sealed" in the first place?

This is on top of boudica's note that The Watcher was specifically stated to be "the only one of the Bronze Companions who does not reside inside the walls of the priest king's Temple Complex." Yet, W_E claims to be The Watcher's Apprentice. Apprentice has a very specific meaning which indicates a formal training relationship. This would make the Apprentice a Bronze Companion in training and makes it very unlikely that The Watcher's role PM wouldn't mention him in any manner. When confronted with this, W_E then claims he's more of a Watcher Fanboi. Really? Then why is his role title "Apprentice"?

For a while I entertained the notion that W_E was doing this to intentionally make himself a target for Iffo, possibly to spare another townie. I think the odds of that being true are now very slim. W_E is probably Iffo.

As much as i like the idea of a fanboy or an apprentice im thinking TC could be right... WE what say you to TC's accusations ?

Though i think we should continue with the CA lynch for today... get him down to one lynch then if we think we have iffo we kill/lynch him next... if the game finishes with CA still alive we owe him an apolgy... if it doesn't every person must vote for him!

[TinCow]

I agree that CA should be today's lynch. I recommend that the blocker go after W_E.
