    GH:

    You're lynch suggestions both here and in Settler have been pretty....straightforward. Are you SURE this is the way to go?


    Sasaki:

    I agree with you that Griz' does seem a bit "off." No missing votes, no outrageous vote choices (abstain, alex, boudica, abstain), but he's not sticking his neck out at all with the votes and his posts are a notch less focused then usual.

    YLC/Grey':

    Why 'khaan? He's voting all Sasaki this time and without any supporting argument, but that's almost like abstaining unless someone else is putting pressure on Sasaki. Good or evil, Sasaki won't even bother answering such a thing. Yet khaan has been around long enought to know that voting unsupported with evidence can get the focus on you.....

    Bolded key points for further clarification.

    Literally the above makes him an excellent choice this round.

    If I remember correctly, from the games I have read that had him as a player, khaan was pretty active especially when he had atpg openly suspecting him.

    his posts are a notch less focused then usual.

    Ill be honest with my watcher role in the settlement i was more focused on that game... partially just because i had a role but partially also because i had contacts i was talking to and information being shared... and as an informed power town role it is my solemn duty to lead the town to success!!

    Here im a basic townie... the will is still there! but the flesh is weak and unwilling... in other words theres not much i can do... i don't really like contacting other players as paranoia takes over me... so im just trying to pull together what we have in the thread... which is far from my strong point!

    He's seemed off to me this game. Usually I have a feeling that he's innocent by this point, don't this game.

    seeming off and gut instinct... i dont suppose you flicked a coin as well... "heads, we lynch grizzly"

    Good choice for grunt as well.

    If we are going to kill people for thier mafia skill im sure theres one or two players who we should lynch first.. like... hmm... you!

    aside from that "so was padraic the IRA boss?" post.

    This is twice you have accused me of making posts i didn't even make!

    Or at least im fairly sure i didn't make that post... but i definetly didnt make the one where you said i was either mafia dropping hints or picking up on hints.. something about AVSM i think...

    I'll try and see if I can find some more specific examples of what's tweaking my gut

    Please do! with links to the relevant posts so we can be sure its something i said!

    attempting to put the cat into the frame of suspects smells a little bit fishy.

    Putting the cat in the frame of the suspects...?

    this is what i said Is this cat some kind of detective... can he get us results somehow...

    Usually detectives being good guys... i was asking if he is a good guy and if he can help us...

    I agree with you that Griz' does seem a bit "off."

    Is this from advice from your horoscope or did you do a tarot card reading ?

    No missing votes

    I don't miss many... occasionally some on the weekend... but i have made a vote every round here like i have in the settlement since this game started...

    no outrageous vote choices

    Apart from my errm... niave pursual of Jolt are my vote choices usually that outrageous ... ?

    Im usually voting with at least a few other people.. my vote on atpgood was the only one (though pizza voted him and unvoted..) so surely if im the only person voting for someone that is perhaps more outrageous than my usual voting ?

    Boudica's post...

    Little Grizzley

    Little Grizzley

    Ok you want outrageous voting you can get outraegous voting!

    Vote Boudica purely for spelling my name wrong... constantly... when she spells my name properly i shall switch my vote to sasaki as a pure revenge vote for voting for me...

    and well maybe not just a revenge vote... i often wonder when i am an innocent and a player as skilled at this game as sasaki is makes a case against me... if they are simply mafia directing my lynch as an easy one.. rather than making a rare mistake...

    no outrageous vote choices (abstain, alex, boudica, abstain),

    I would like to make another point on this...

    There were far easier lynches on those first two days i could have joined in with.... an ATPG or Reenk bandwagon would have been a simple fist round vote for me to make... but because im town i fought against these pointless lynches and did stick my neck out by refusing to vote for either and abstaining instead...the ATPGood lynch was my own original thought which i figured would be a better idea than some of the other dismal choices other people suggested....

    Again that was sticking my neck out.. far easier to just follow someone else's reasoning than to come up with your own which may be bad...

    Anyone else think possibly 'khaan could be hinting at us... ?

    Edit: My last abstain vote was more of a placeholder.. i had a few minutes to quickly make the post in uni before i left... not really enough time to form an opinion vote someone and put reasons behind it..

    Unless of course there was some nice easy grizzly bandwagon for me to jump on...

    That's the one I was referring to. With regards to some speculation that the IRA were trying to pretend that one of their guys had died, so that we would think there were only two of them (two blind mice instead of three). It's not important though, I'm basing my vote from the feeling that your posting is off. The same accusation I made of Andres day 2 last game...

    The latest post doesn't seem like you either. This isn't a thing where I make accusations and you defend yourself though, this is the thing where I say I think your style is off and if other people agree then they vote you.


    Anyone else think possibly 'khaan could be hinting at us... ?
    Tell me more about what you think of khaan's posts.

    fair enough - and it shows how much attention I've been paying. Let's leave Inspector Wee Thomas out of this.

    and as to your claim about voting, let's see if this throws Wee Thomas amongst the pigeons...

    unvote: Vote: Sasaki

    This is the part of the post Sasaki is referring to...

    Padriac named character ? assuming he is IRA... sound about right ?

    please explain to me the thought process that took from what i said here...

    to... "so was padraic the IRA boss?"


    The first part of the post was asking if Padriac is a named charater or just someones username... i was too lazy to check and i thought i better make it a question rather than say something stupid...

    The second part im guessing from his name he was an ira charater... given that the name is not english sounding in the slightest and a little bit irish sounding... it was/is probably a correct assumption... though thinking on it now he culd be some other role... it didn't occur to me at the time though...

    Where is the part where i call him the ira boss... i can't even see how you could even call that me hinting at him being the boss of ira... there is absolutely nothing in that post that hints towards him being a boss...

    This isn't a thing where I make accusations and you defend yourself though, this is the thing where I say I think your style is off and if other people agree then they vote you.

    At least base your suspicions on posts i have made!

    And an accurate interpratation of those posts as well!

    There are points that have been made that i can answer... the gut and bad feelings are just something i can make little remarks like coin flicking or horoscopes about...

    TBH the fact you are making such a weak case is making me less suspicious of you... im sure mafia sasaki would have a blindingly brilliant case to follow rather than one with more holes than swiss cheese...

    on the other hand i don't really have anything else to go on...

    Vote Sasaki

    Ituralde was chosen to be killed today. He had slept in late and woken up at weird times. No one really heard much from him. As they prepared to hang him, he grabbed the noose and said "No one catches Mike Fingers!"
    In doing so, he jumped off the platform and broke his neck.


    Ituralde = 8 (Andres, ATPGuy, El D, GH, Grey, Reenk, Seamus, WE)
    Sasaki = 4 (Boudica, Diana, 'khaan, LG)
