It seemed to be clear to several people actually. I’m not sure whether the votes on Hal had anything to do with JSexton pushing the lynch or whether he simply thought Blam seemed more dangerous. I realise there could be town motivation for doing that as well as scum but either way, the lynch of Blam benefitted scum just as much as town if not more so.

We got macey early and bufftabby via peeker. I think it’s made us complacent and I’m as much to blame as anyone else. We’ve got rid of two pfks who, according to your pm may well be the only ones. While there’s no doubt the pfks needed to be got rid of, it would have surely been far better for them to have been vigged (I’m assuming we’ve got one). We’ve essentially used up two Days getting rid of third parties instead of finding scum and I think JSexton may have had a hand in making sure that happened hence my vote for him.

Sorry, still at work so no analysis yet - haven’t had a chance to reread.
