The mods appreciate your unofficial, but exactly correct, vote count. (Still catching up. Sorry was busy for the last 24 hours or so.)

… I knew that. (Do you know how hard it is to type your screen name properly, though? It comes out with a ‘p’ every time, straight from inner phrase book to fingers to keyboard without bothering to check in with the error processing department.)

> [@Hoopy\_Frood](#):

> **Normal Phase** , your first vote for **Mahaloth** did not count because at the time you had an existing vote for **TexCat** which you did not unvote. However, since names are not required (though, are nice for reduced chance of mod error) for an unvote, you’re unvote of **Mahaloth** will be registered as an unvote for **TexCat** , and as a result your vote for **Tom Scud** will register.

Glad the oversight didn’t change the intended final result.

Heh. Yeah, I’m reminded of one time I was trying to log into SDMB and it kept telling me my username or password was off. I checked caps lock, made sure I was using the right password…then I realized that I was using Slip, not Slit.

After much indecision about who they wanted to lynch, the villagers advanced upon Tom Scud.

BillMC was the first to grab him, but he struggled and got away. Mahaloth and Normal Phase quickly chased him down and held him.

“What should we do with him?” Normal Phase inquired.

“I know!” said Darth, we’ll throw him to the sharks!

So the villagers dragged Tom to the edge of a cliff and threw him off into the sea, where he was immediately set upon by a shiver of sharks (yes, that’s what a group of them is called).

“We should eat him!” cried the first shark.

“Nah, not enough meat. There’s better thing around,” said a second.

“Yeah, but he’s ours for the taking,” chimed in a third.

“I know!” exclaimed a fourth. “Let’s challenge him to a deul!”

“And just how do you plan to hold a sword in your fin?” inquired a fifth.

“Easy,” the fourth retorted. This is game color and the mods will just _dues ex machina_ the ability in.

So the fourth drew his sword while Tom drew his. They battled for a while, and Tom clearly was the better sword fighter. Just as he was about to run the fourth shark through, the first shark stabbed him in the back with his own sword, freezing Tom in place. With the blood flowing, the sharks went into a frenzy and tore Tom’s body apart.

“It’s sad to see a family torn apart…by a bunch of sharks,” Freudian Slit observed.

Suddenly through the air flew a soggy playing card. It landed face down in front of the villagers. One of them grabbed in and flipped it over. On it’s face was written:

**Tom Scud** - **Town Vanilla**

Night begins now and will end Monday at 3 P.M. CDT. All night actions are due by then.

I seem to remember **Mahaloth** and **AllWalker** not turning down the chance to tend bar in the past. C’mon over, guys, these people look thirsty.

and this is not strategy.

at times it helps to look at late vote movements and bad logic. kind of like florida regarding bush and gore.

yasee scum, i mean not nice folks, theroetically can control votes and outcomes **more** than town, i mean nice folks.

so they have **less** to worry about, fcs. because they want to influence the outcome to their benefit.

one could look at the internet and a message board that has games if one wants an example. something like [straightsnopes.com](http://straightsnopes.com) (i think that is what it is called).

not strategy just theory.

kind of like talking about universal health care, dontyaknow.

Of course, I will.

Any beer requests?

I’d like a Tsingtao Dark, actually. Had it a few times in China. Haven’t had one in years.

Don’t push your luck. You should really follow the advice of your much wiser compatriot **Normal Phase**. We don’t want to modkill, but we will.

One quadruple whiskey anad a 40 of Gastardly Ale to Zeriel.

By the way, am I the only that almost posts game contributions to the Inglroius Basterds thread in Cafe Society?
