    and then this round switch the votes from the more established possible scum to Boudica, which GH did as well
    Then who were you talking to?

    That post still doesn't make sense though. You yourself said that you were extremely high on the suspect list, but still criticized glyphz from switching from, in your words, Priority #1 (IK) to Priority #2 (you). That small of a dropoff doesn't really warrant that post against him.

    Yes it does - his unvote and vote made it a 50/50 between number 2 and one that wasn't even on the scale, very scummy to me, especially when if his vote stayed Ibn would have been lynched, without endangering Boudica at all.

    Excuse me, but did anyone notice that boudica handed Glyphs the gun that killed her?

    Ooh, nice find. That makes me feel better about my switch.

    It was also near the last statue of Artemis, according to the location.


    Perhaps there's a connection to the statue portions of the write ups?

    If I stuck my vote on Ibn, boudica will be automatically lynched since she would be the only one w/ 2 votes. Unconvinced that boudica should be lynched, I was forced to switch my vote to you, my 2nd top suspect, who already has a vote to amke it 2, and creating a tie.

    The random vote went to boudica, and it's looks like she was the magnum-wielding guy.

    boudica looked carefully at the 6 others.

    Looking at glyphz, boudica said: "Quick and painless please."

    glyphz nodded and took the gun boudica offered.

    "Good luck," boudica said to glyphz. "You'll need it."

    glyphz pointed the gun at boudica. One shot from the mighty gun ended boudica's life mercifully.
    'Mighty gun' likely hints to a magnum.

    Why she chose me, specifically, to do it?



    Now YLC, I have a question for you.
    Tally:

    boudica : 2 (GeneralHankerchief, Seamus Fermanagh)
    YLC: 2 (boudica, glyphz)

    Lord Winter : 1 (Ibn-Khaldun)
    Not voting : 2 (Lord Winter, YLC)
    The final tally shows that you and boudica are tied, with LW being the only other person who has a vote.
    And yet, in the write-ups...
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    The day was coming to an end. At the end of the day, some tourists changed their minds. Perhaps the ongoing drama was finally making them completely paranoid...?

    boudica and Ibn-Khaldun were standing in front of the old man. The old man searched in his pocket and showed an ancient Roman coin. "I've found this one a long time ago. Should have given it to the Turkish authorities a long while ago. Oh well, maybe it was meant to decide our fates..."

    He flipped the coin and looked at it.
    ... it is boudica and Ibn-K whose fates were decided by a coin.
    Could you explain why are you (and perhaps LW) 'non-existent' in the write-ups?

    Forgive me then, my attack on you was undeserved, and you actually did what was best at the time - my own laziness put my foot in my mouth.

    As to the write up, I have no idea, but lynch me the coming round if I am not dead this night.

    The General is gaining strength with his lynch choice it seems. Yet the game is not over?
    This also is a plus in Seamus' book as it was his nose who got the wind of the mighty gun.

    My nose however is wrinkling over Ibn still being a candidate for lynch. We all know the coin flip should have been between YLC and boudica. Yet it was not so...
    I know I had some secret voting abilities in Midgard, could this be the case here? One or two of the players voted in secret to put boudica and Ibn with a hidden 3 vs 3 vote?

    If this is the case, it would be hard to lynch the remaining mafioso, should there be 2 hidden votes left. You need a full majority ... no a unanimous lynch to get rid of players.

    This reeks of fish gone bad.
