I make that the eighth vote for Winston. One more to Hammertime. (Assuming I’ve counted correctly.) ---

It just occurred to me that if is telling the truth, he spent the last few weeks with one teammate absent and another barely present, not to mention Silver Jan’s lynching. And then the former two go and bus _him_. It looks more plausible suddenly, especially if there are only four. ---

**unvote**. Anyone have thoughts on the timing? I guess we’re better off with Day ending on a weekday, and thus a hammer now-ish or else held off until Monday. ---

Let’s see. Weedy is still on nesta, fluid hasn’t been seen in this thread for days; Stanislaus who I think is in the UK. I’m still missing one. ---

There’s no reason to think one of them won’t show up in the next few hours. ---

Speaking of Fluid, she’s posted intermittently (4 times total) in the week since she last appeared here. ---

-Well, huh. -I’m not bussing him. Sis C, are you bussing him? -That was lucky. Honestly, I thought my case on Winston was a little weak. ---

Guess I might as well **vote Winston** since I don’t really see a problem with the hammer falling. ---

I was gonna say, unless people were really interested in discussing and looking for other people, there’s not much point to extending the day. ---

It goes without saying that any votes after Winston’s little temper tantrum don’t effectively count for town cred, including mine. As for hammering? We on the dope have a horrible track record of generating meaningful discussion once the lynch is a foregone conclusion, and I don’t really feel like watching everyone sit around for a while staring at the floor. ---
