This was totally unclear before now; it needed clarification. Thanks.

Also, GH for antidote? Whaaaaaa

But why?
I misread something.
Misunderstandings on my part:
  • Ground=/=Rock: somehow I equated the two.
  • Auto was immune to ground, not rock. The "Mafia are all rock-type" is not disproved by this.
  • Auto did not know he was immune to anything (hidden trait): I forgot this when I was typing up my counterpoint to Monty. Again, the "Mafia are all rock-type" is not disproved by this.


Still, I think an electric attack is almost exclusive to an electric type pokemon. So, it's possible the rock attack that killed BSmith was the vig attack, and the thunderbolt was the mafia-strike that hit an immune player. Based on that, I have concluded that either the Mafia-mon are not all rock type, or Pizza gave out a vig that is unable to actually do anything. I find the latter to be extremely unlikely.

GH made the list of antidote donators because he was talking about the poisoning at length. If El Barto had not claimed to have poisoned Manasi, I might have thought Manasi was faking the poisoning to get town sympathy. But with El Barto's claim, that theory only works if BOTH Manasi and El Barto are scum. El Barto is another plausible antidoter candidate, depending on how he took Manasi's reaction to being poisoned. Others on my mysterious benefactor list are going to be kept close to my chest for the moment.

OK, after rereading my "RE: Jabbz" post at #1130 (unsure of how the coding for tags work here, so please forgive me for not providing the hotlink) I see now how it is unclear.

lol at Zack for obvious reasons.

Still think the reasoning behind voting auto was good. I didn't think town would back off scumreads, see Zack/Monty, because it garnered some suspicion, which is why I voted auto.

SV is reacting far more strongly today than D1, but that's to be expected considering the circumstances, still looks bad though. His vote on Zack is not sheeping me, and it's bad imo.

Need to reread thread.
I saw them as independent events.
"Elsewhere, a pokemon uses thunderbolt!
...
...it wasn't very effective."
Such a statement does not sound like one Pokemon subbing in for another. It is an attack, and should be treated as such.
