Haven't we gone over this before. A TIE ONLY BENEFITS THE SITH. How does a tie benefit us in this situation? Both here are reasonable lynches, both are good choices, pick one ore the other.

C'mon people, what'd I just say? Tie it up again, and make YLC make a choice.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Considering what you have just said prior to your sudden vote switch YLC, I will take this sudden move to kill off Ignoramus instead of letting yourself die as you mentioned previously as a strong indication of guilt.
I recommend more votes be piled on YLC rather than a tie with Ignoramus, the sudden change of heart considering his prior "oh noes I rather let myself die because I'm just a lowly initiate" is just eyebrow raising.
Unless you'd care to explain YLC?
You cannot add days to life but you can add life to days.
Wait, didn't you say don't tie originally? Or was it don't change the tie?

mmm... YLC
Edit:
To sum it up, YLC basically says that he'd rather die than Ignoramus because he knows that he himself is but a lowly initiate, and that Ignoramus's commitment level which is unusual to him speaks of a possibly pro-town role (without mentioning that it could be a sith role which is one of the cases on him) and that between the two of them, YLC would rather die because he can still contribute to the town, and Ignoramus will be safe and sound.
His sudden change of heart away from this reasoning is highly disconcerting and troubling.

Well, the original point was to keep it not a tie, since YLC had taken his vote off. Basically, if YLC has his vote on Iggy, keep it a tie, if he takes it anywhere else, keep YLC at one more than Iggy. Since YLC has his vote on Iggy now, tie it up. Both have acted very scummy, and its annoying, because it keeps attention off Dcmort.

So yeah, ummmm

look if you want me dead you'll need to vig me because I have force breath. Chances are I'll die the next night unless the sith just suck hardcore
Actually makes, a boatload and a half of sense. I have glandular fever, so my brain is fried, trying to follow logic unless it is 150% clear is pretty much impossible. =(To sum it up, YLC basically says that he'd rather die than Ignoramus because he knows that he himself is but a lowly initiate, and that Ignoramus's commitment level which is unusual to him speaks of a possibly pro-town role (without mentioning that it could be a sith role which is one of the cases on him) and that between the two of them, YLC would rather die because he can still contribute to the town, and Ignoramus will be safe and sound.

Unvote; Vote: YLC.
I don't like ties, but, I'm willing to make a compromise here.

I might have missed something since you can point the wish for a tie down as misguided. Could you tell me why it is that town has NO gain of a tie in this situation?
In this situation we have two people; one who will be lynched today, and one who will be lynched tomorrow, if we look at the number of votes they have. If a duel suggest that Ignoramus is an important Jedi, well then he will end up dead, slain by the mafia. If the duel does not suggest this, then he will be lynched.
In other words, a duel could in theory save the life of an important power role, for some days perhaps. So why is it so absurd to wish for a tie?
Edit: or perhaps I am wrong? it's getting very late... Yes I am wrong.. please disregard this. If he is an important role he would claim his abilities before a grand bandwagon on him alone occured. . .

I thought I explained this...I do not know Iggys' role, but I know mine, and thus I put my life abve his and if given the opportunity will vote for Iggy if Iggy is to be lynched. My reasoning for insuring that I die instead of tying it up is because that'd reveal more information to the Sith, which I do not want to do, and in which a duel I know Iggy will win.
Also, HoS: DIY, for calling me an Initiate. I'd like to show me where I called myself an initiate.
so then you either believe I'm innocent or you wast to lynches and get what the mafia wants
No. You are acting scummy. Therefore likely Sith. But, now you've revealed you have force breath, if I'm infact wrong and you are Jedi it isn't helpful at all to have revealed that information because you will be left around until the end game as lynchbait, muddying the water and making harder to find the real Sith. What is called an unhelpful townie.

Yeah i'm pretty much doing that. I believe there is a number of different levels of scans, each more effective. However, there is (was last game) a way to be invisible to them, and it was a pro town and sith ability.
...
My experience with townies like you is you stick around, then vote wrong.
Kinda like the Caius effect or something.
Oi, forgot I had actually said thatI retract my suspicion of DIY, I jut wish now he had included it in his statement about me.
Either or Unvote:Ignoramus
I win no matter what you guys do, you're just making this too fun.
EDIT: Gah, it was in the post - I just skimmed it because since I write it, I didn't think I needed to read it again, lol.

Ok. I'm busy this weekend and will not have a whole lot of time to contribute to discussion, but rest assured I am at least reading it.
Personally, I think this tie is a bad idea, because in a tie it is possible that neither one of them dies (due to Force Alter Damage), and clearly we wouldn't be voting for them if we wanted them to survive. In the (admittedly rare) case that they are both Sith- and YLC certainly seems like a suicidal apprentice trying to save the master- then one or both of them can use Alter Damage and keep both of them alive.
So, these duels are a bad idea unless we KNOW that:
-Our target has Force Breath (presumably it will kill through that).
-We have a strong fighter to duel this suspect and win.
NEVER try to duel two suspected Sith.
Vote: Ignoramus
I'm breaking the tie. Personally I don't think it's a good idea. We will have vigilantes and other days to get rid of YLC.
EDIT: Not cool, YLC.

Well we have 24 hours to pile votes on ignoramus.
Unvote, Vote: YLC
Doesn't matter which one we get rid of as long as there's no tie.
Ignoramus- You had BETTER reveal to pevergreen ASAP or else you're still under major suspicion.
