I don’t even know what to say now - I don’t feel like we have a damned thing to go on, and maybe it IS time to consider role claims. ---

I’m with you on that one, but I for one haven’t figured out a good way to go around the caveats others have raised thus far. Especially since we’ve mainly lost Vanilla Townies thus far. How can we find out whose claim is valid and whose isn’t? ---

I’m stumped on that, too. Is it safe to assume that we only have a vig and scum in terms of killers, then? ---

You still want onto my spoiler board? Even after I told everyone that my board only has fake spoilers? Eh, ok I guess. Now I suppose I actually have to go make a fake spoiler board. ---

Anyway, all that side, Nanook hasn’t posted here in a seriously long time, which makes me think he’s either lost interest or has nothing to say. I hate to say lynch the non talker yet AGAIN…but I don’t know. You and I are speaking a lot. A few others have, too, but nothing all that seemingly scummy. Other than that, it seems like a lot of people have gone for you as scum, mostly because it seems like the easy way out. **Zeriel** seemed very eager to vote because of how you phrased something: > [@Zeriel](#): > > Uh-huh. Stopping the scum kill is UNfortunate. Right. > > **vote Mahaloth** (Bleached) But a lot of other people who voted for you have ended up being townies. Hmm. ---

Yes, a game like this almost seems to be encouraging silence, actually. ---

Bill’s reasoning for suspecting you, **Maha** , seems a bit suspect. It is very nitpicky. I mean, I get what he’s saying–I just have no idea why it’s at all a reason to vote for someone. > [@BillMC](#): > > You said you were expecting three kills: vig, sk, scum. But there were only two. > > You said “unless the role block stopped a scum kill”. > > Zeriel read this as you saying the blocker stopped the scum making a kill. > > If there are three killers, and a blocker, then the blocker would have had an equal chance of blocking vig, sk, scum. The blocker could have have stopped a scum kill, so Zeriel’s viewpoint is ok, but doesn’t strike me as odd either way. > > But you said you meant the blocker stopped a scum being killed. > > Out of three equally likely kill-block pairings, you appear to have assumed that the scum kill was not blocked. That’s what I find odd. The only other “big conflict thing” that I can think of was this. I’d think that if Zeriel and Bill were both scum they’d have gunned harder for you, but who knows. Both of them seemed to be nit picking. I respect Bill a little more for sticking with his position, though, because he had some reasoning at least. Which takes me to: Nanook of the North Shore, ColdPhoenix, Zeriel all didn’t vote for anyone at all yesterDay though which pings me as really bad. A vote for no one is a vote for a random kill. It’s like you clearly just don’t care enough to take a stand. It’s like being dead weight. So, my FOS on all of these players at this point. What are our collective thoughts on how many killers we have? Clearly we have scum and we had a vigilante. We also had two kills the night before (though there was some debate on whether more than one person had targeted peeker). However that whole peeker getting killed by someone or someones could have been just color, meaning we have no serial killer, and just had scum and a vig. If it wasn’t color, and more than one person went after peeker, then we presumably have/had 3 killers: scum, serial killer, and vig. Which would mean that last night, either the vig couldn’t kill because he was killed last night, or someone was blocked. The wishful side of me says we should just focus on what we do have. I’m also afraid that we don’t have that many power roles because there have been SO many vanillas dead. The only power role we’ve come across was vigilante. Here’s hoping there’s a cop or a doctor out there. ---

NETA: Ok, Zeriel did vote for Mahaloth and then took that vote off when no one else was going along with it. But Zeriel didn’t bother to change to anyone else. ---
