I presume I’m the dead guy. Just how these things go.

Why TexCat and not Darth Sensitive or myself?

These two facts about Johnny Bravo’s clue don’t match up:

> [@TexCat](#):

> N2 I had a choice between Chronos and JohnnyBravo. Chronos had allegedly told us his clue, and I was not 100% certain of his death and so I chose Johnny. I have debated sharing his clue and I’m still not sure it’s the right thing to do.  
> CLUE: There is a Scum player who does not have access to the Scum boards at the outset of the game. The majority of the Scum do not know this.

> [@Chronos](#):
>
> Johnny Bravo: \<potential mislynch if false\>

But I may have screwed up; I’m trying to find Johnny’s original post about his clue.

Ok, so I was safe to trust the godfather.

\*\*All -

Picture me making my sternest face.

MANY OF YOU HAVE NOT SUBMITTED ACTIONS. So many as to make this a bit awkward. I will thus be allowing a one time only 30-minute extension of this Day to allow for any latecomers to do this. This will not happen on any Day again, and any action not submitted by 12:30 my time exactly will be lost.

NAUGHTY.

Is the voting extended as well?

**vote: Pizza** I still prefer Darth, and wasn’t going to vote Pizza and take any chance of a Darth lynch off the table. But Rysto’s last minute vote screwed that.

Oh, and  
**vote: Rysto**

I hate meta-gaming, but I suspect our MIAers contain power roles and/or scum, then.

Astral was here and could have sniped DS or Tex to decide the round, content with voting for ol’ pizzabelly and letting the tie be broken by someone else.

Septimus also here, could have sniped me or TexCat personally, left vote on Darth Sensitive.

Rysto breaks tie, but only on final minute. Voted for Astral before that.

I gotta be honest…

I’m starting to think I’m scum.

Probably scum, letting the loud town lynch themselves.

I’m not sure that’s meta-gaming. That seems more like an outright statement. Wouldn’t the MIAers perforce be either power roles or scum? Who else would have an action to send in?

Also, I hate buzzerbeaters. It’s extremely anti-town.

Me? I was in a 3-way tie with Pizza and Darth. At least Darth had a chance of being lynched. I was willing to take my chances on that.

It’s theoretically possible scum and/or town players are active players and just forgot to get their “night action” in for the end of Day. People have been struggling a bit with that all game.

But you’re right, it’s more statement of fact than meta-game analysis.

Oh TexCat, my TexCat, our fearful day is done  
The Pizza has weather’d every vote, and now our song is sung  
The noose is near, but have no fear, my death is not a killer  
My fellow townies, have no frownies, for I am just vaniller

But O heart! heart! heart!  
O the bleeding drops of red,  
Where on the deck my pizza dies,  
Fallen cold and dead.

I did not post it, because it was not relevant. I did not say that I would.
