I’d prefer it if you weren’t the default, to be honest, **sach** , since I think you’re much more engaged and analytical about this game than most of us right now, and we’d be losing one of our strongest players if you are, in fact, vanilla. I’m not quite sure how to suggest an alternate target, however, so I’ll just hope that **Mahaloth** provides a different name for the Vig before the close of the Day. ---

Well if **Mahaloth** shows up perhaps he will be so kind as to use large font to make sure both the Vig and Doc know of his choice. Coordination is PARAMOUNT. I really don’t understand why he didn’t say anything. He’s read the post with the plan. He even voted for it. ---

Okay, since I might end up dead by morning if we don’t have a Doc, I’ll lay out the vanilla/not-vanilla plan here WITH claim order since if I’m dead you’ll know I’m Town and blah blah blah. Vanilla Town claim Vanilla Town _Vigilante claims Vanilla Town_ All other Town claim NOT vanilla Town Scum claim whatever There were 21 items in your list. Here they are in random order: 1. Suburban Plankton - presumed Vanilla Town 20.guiri [del]21. sachertorte[/del]Vanilla Town [del]13. Pleonast[/del]Scum Roleblocker [del]1. Mahaloth[/del] Mason [del]8. Drain Bead[/del] Bomber 2. storyteller0910 3. Gadarene 4. Zeriel [del]18.septimus[/del] Vanilla Town 5. ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies 14.One and Only Wanderers 6. Astral Rejection [del]4. pedescribe[/del] Vanilla Town 17.peekercpa [del]12. Tom Scud[/del] Vanilla Town 7. Idle Thoughts 19.special ed 8. Manwich 9. Wolverine [del]3. MentalGuy[/del] Cop Timestamp: 2011-03-08 22:41:04 UTC It is important to note that if I’m dead in the morning, we likely do NOT have a Doc. Therefore both sleepers would be in the Vanilla Pool. Please keep this in mind. Also, look at the numbers in each population versus the published role list to determine the number of scum in each group. If scum succeed in waking a scum sleeper after the claims, the Town Doc will be in a difficult position. I don’t know what you need to do in that case, but I’m sure you’ll think of something. Good Luck. ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > I’m sorry, what specifically do you need from me? Clearly name one of the players who have claimed as Vanilla town - the vig will then target that player and the doc (if they exist) will then protect them. Preferably not sach, because as Gad said, sach is “much more engaged and analytical about this game than most of us right now”. I strongly agree with that, for what it is worth. ---

**Yes to the plan.** I’m looking shady at all those who voted no. Uh, why not? Like Story said, it is much more pro-Town for it to be implemented. ---
