    Yes, but when I did it I wasn't pushing hard for your lynch - merely posting my thoughts about people. Again, this is not a binary situation where I was either fully vouching for your towniness or urgently pushing for your death. I was hoping for some continued discussion on my perspective rather than a "this is my case take it or leave it" type of scenario.

    Listen, if you want me to move my vote, you need to convince me there's a better candidate out there. Considering you haven't really pushed anyone except myself for the lynch, you're just defending yourself without presenting a viable alternative, so I'm unconvinced.

    Just saw, it is over. I don't think your vote changes the outcome anyway, so probably should be okay if Pizza included it (unless it is tied to a special ability).

    I am just hoping BSmith turns red (or scum coloured)

    End of Day Four


    Bird was thought to be a cat by other birds. This made Bird sad, so he decided to leave habitat.

    Someone really should close gate, thought Bird. Will let Cat out.

    Wait, why is Cat in? Bird started flapping wings to get away! But Bird cannot fly.

    Still, Bird was not ready to give up. Bird stood as high as he could, and prepared to strike cat.

    But Bird is smallest flightless bird in the world. Cat ate Bird in single gulp. Or not really.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 



    Meanwhile, elsewhere, other Bird was very quiet, and wandered too close to feasting Cat.

    Although Bird is very quiet, Cat spotted Bird. But this Bird was very ready to take on evil Cat.

    Bird inflated large pouch, to look incredibly big and frightening! Or perhaps, to blow up like a balloon and float away. Would be improvement over all these danged flightless birds everywhere.

    But in actuality, throat pouch inflation is for impressing the lady Birds. Not for intimidating Cat, or for floating away.

    And Cat has claws, and probably not a good idea to be a passive, inflated Bird when Cat is hungry and wants to scratch weird looking birds to death.

    Bird suffered WRATH OF CAT!!!!


    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    So many goofy looking Birds. None seem capable of standing up to the evil Cat.

    I know who I am going to vote for next day phase, I think. Though knowing my luck, they will get night killed and turn out to be town then I will be hanging up my hat and going "Yup, now I am done. I lost big time."

    End of Night Four


    Bird was very active that night, searching for seeds and grubs and things to eat, sniffing around with nostrils. Yes, Bird actually has nostrils and a highly developed sense of smell.

    Bird could smell animal approaching. Bird recognized the scent.... it was not Cat. Cat would not want to go near these things.

    Things were hunting Bird, so Bird use its impressive anatomy to do something no other Bird can do....

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Lay egg one quarter its own size.

    Very well played, Bird.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Now, if only Bird had wings, Bird could get away.

    Run, Bird!

    But there nowhere to run.

    And Bird not faster than speeding bullet. Bird merely beloved and goofy-looking and very endangered New Zealand mascot.

    Bird not endangered anymore. There nothing dangerous to dead Bird.

    If people want more time I'll extend it. At final 6, usually it ends as no lynch.

    Oh right, that's a thing.

    For folks that have done this thing before, is that the plan then? In the meantime I'll get some work done
    watch more NCAA March Madness games
    do a reread and see if anything comes up.

    The more I read this and that day phase, the less I like it. What's with this declarative statement? Not only did you never clarify *why* you think this, even if you had, you know as well as I do the power of wifom, especially given how much we like to rib on occam's razor on steam. I *know* you know better than this sort of statement.

    The kill targets ring as something you'd do too.

    Another thing... you have *lots* of "town" reads as I go through the thread. Town read on winston, town read on zack, town read on beskar, "this is town vs town". If I see this once, maybe twice, I'll notn pay much mind, but this is a pretty consistent thing. C'mon, town GH, gimme that scum read. Even yesterday, when you gave me a poke vote, you poked me, and kept posting a bit, and then kinda just let it fall flat. Gimme that vigor. I know you're posting, but I'm not feeling the intent.

    I think we're looking at GH-Winston, on my gut. I'm especially looking at the Auto lynch here especially - each one on a different wagon, ready to intercede if the winston case picked up steam. In fact, they've not voted for the same person the *entire* game. While that could be purely incidental, given we're on LYLO, that seems less likely.

    Zack has won several recent games as scum where none of his team got caught, with his manipulation of the public mood being a key ingredient each time.
