Gah! I even tried to make him look a bit suspicious. And with the save-Mac vote yesterday, surely the Critics could've made some hay out of that. Drat. I wanted him around at the end.

Well, so much for that. At least Scar can still be trusted.

By the way, the count is 5-2, with one of the 5 on the Critic side of the table.

So if you don't lynch a baddie today, and the Critics kill Agan overnight, the tally tomorrow will be 3-2 with Walter there to cast a self-vote for the win.

So yeah... possibly the final day here. Now is when it would've been nice not to double lynch on Day 1 and lose someone to Mod-fire.

Yes my darling but Bowie still hasn't picked up the message I sent him... so ...and at the time I thought removing him benefitted the village most (though I had representation from both sides) ... And if I had flexed the deadline to save Nog day 1 I would have had to flex yesterday and double lynch then so it evens out...

Okay, so I'm an idiot. Yes, I was wrong, yes, I suck at this, but don't kill me. Or at least, if you kill me (for I take a fair bit of responsibility for yesterDay) at least kill a critic along with me.

I meant to point out yesterDay that Mac was right about Walter. Now that the only unknown role is the diva/devo Walter's really not a lot of use to the critics. But he still gives them a bit of advantage, as if he/she finds the diva/devo the critics know who not to kill. But I do see his point. (I got off work about 15 minutes before DL yesterDay but didn't have time to put in any additional posts besides the short ones I did at the end)

Anyway, we know that Agan is innocent, I know that I am innocent, and I think that Boro is innocent. That leaves Lari, Kath, Gwath, and Shasta. I'm going to look at votes and things (though my real work will probably be after I get off work, as I get off in half an hour and I concentrate better when I'm at home and not jittery)

Anyway, for now I'm out. Back soon.

Mith dear, I was not complaining about your decisions at all. The double-lynch and mod-fire was a direct result of the actions of the singers. We should not have allowed the circumstances that led to those deaths.

Anyone have a vote summary from yesterday? It would be nice.

If there isn't one up when I get off work (~10-15 minutes) I'll do one before I go to class.

I'm done with the gloom and bleak outlook...the news was a bad choice for me. I turn on the tube and they're testing what happens when you throw a large goose into a jet engine. Ugh...

Yes, I'd imagine he does.

Sally why do you think Boro is innocent?

The bad thing is, I'm still alive and I'm going to be busy tomorrow because of a stupid school thing. The good thing is, Mac is dead and I can finally concentrate on others properly.

Yup. Even if it wasn't stated in the rules, Mith said it later.

I don't think the diva/divo should believe people who tell xem not to reveal, but decide for xemself. Two known innocents today wouldn't be a bad thing, and even if someone else tried to pose as xem, we'd find them out soon enough.

I don't trust anyone of you and least of all phantom.

See, if we lynch an innocent today and an innocent dies in the night (which will happen because the wolves know they are able to kill at least me), we lose. It'd be 3-2 for the wolves as the cobbler can join them then.

And I don't want to see a critic about to be lynched today come out shouting, 'I'm the diva!' and have some poor wavering soul retract and vote someone else just because they don't want to risk killing xem. Also, it's usually difficult for an innocent to predict how the vote goes.

Gwath, I'm not planning to become a dictator... yet. And though I wear a uniform I was not born to fight.

edit: xed with phantom. I will probably have to vote early (ie an hour or two before deadline) because I've promised to go to cinema with some friends and the movie they want to see begins at, erm, don't remember. Around deadline anyway.
