Storyteller, can I just go ahead and say I love you? An Evil Candarian Demon Moose? You are the best, man.

By the way, I was voting for MHaye. Or at least it was my intention. I keep forgetting the mechanics of the carry-over vote. I guess it didn’t automatically kick in when I unvoted AH.

Very nice. Happy with the result, not happy about being fooled.

Didn’t see a reason to claim, as it appeared MHaye was doomed. As for voting, I’m at a loss. I didn’t like any of the leading bandwagons, and I’ve convinced myself that my main suspect is town.

So does that mean I get a point Mr. Brewha? heh

**Story, you have me voting for Jsexton. This is not accurate, I voted for Mhaye last Night and left it there.**

Being a brillian scum player and fooling us all (for a while) is one thing.

No vote: **Rapier42** (just back from vacation), **JSexton**.

Colors: Unknown, Town, Deadite, Third-Party  
In brackets: Unvoted or invalid vote.  
Italic: Rollover vote.

Gets a bit confusing with the unvotes, see amrussells [post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10696003&postcount=208) for details of Day Five.

So the lynch of **Hal Briston** Day Five really saved a scum:  
JSexton, Natlaw, special ed pushed him over after **MHaye** s claim. Natlaw, special ed and Total Lost also unvoted MHaye after the claim. brewha and Nanook also voted Hal, while Almost Human, amrussell and Millit the Frail never had a vote on MHaye.

Day Six due to Hockey Monkeys invalid vote, it ended MHaye 5 - Nanook 3 - JSexton 3 where MHaye could have pushed either to four. For Nanook and JSexton voted: Millit the Frail, dotchan, brewha, Almost Human, amrussell, Natlaw.  
amrussell unvoted MHaye and JSexton didn’t vote.

Rapier42 didn’t vote either day, but was away most of the time.

If I order these players by who did the most to save MHaye (giving extra points for pushing Hal D5 and unvoting D6 and less if only on one list):  
amrussell  
Natlaw

Almost Human  
brewha  
JSexton  
Millit the Frail

dotchan  
Nanook  
Rapier42  
special ed  
Total Lost

I’ll check if my vote reasoning is clear enough, but I’m sure you all will look at it as well. I’ll look at **amrussell** and reread on **JSexton** to decide if my vote for him is valid.

And for something completely different: **Mhaye** was a scum investigator. Not much usable information to gleam from that I think, but it makes it more likely we got two scum left for a total of five, since all three dead so far had powers.  
He had a possible total of five investigation (assuming Night power). Possibly he investigated Hal Briston because of his Alpha Vanilla slip. All Night kills have been of (almost) confirmed townies though.  
Also that scum can write a pretty convincing fake role PM (to me at least).

**Correct, I voted for JSexton, not Nanook**. Must be the na-na-na-na-na that confused **Story** :p.

Thanks, Natlaw. Thats exactly what I was going to do. I have Wednesday off, I’m going to see about building the vote record up from Day One… we’ve caught enough scum for that to have really great potential value.

For now, I’m going to **[color]Vote amrussell**[/color], partially due to the above analysis, and partially because I have the impression that he’s been target-switching and poo-flinging, trying to get something to stick. I will finish my re-read and pay careful attention to him, and if this charge isn’t supported I’ll remove my vote.

What a shame… I only have pics of my knees and none of my ankles.  
You’ll just have to trust me (:dubious: not likely in a mafia-game is it… because everyone loves bacon)

The real question, now, is: _who wrote MHaye’s fake PM?_

There are really only two possibilities:  
–Storyteller  
–One of the scum

If that was a storyteller-written PM, that means that the scum got at least one, and probably more, cover roles. If that was not storyteller-written, it means that at least one of the scum is:

–A good writer  
–Familiar with storyteller’s writing style  
and  
–Dedicated enough to write fake PMs.

Is there anyone in particular in the unknown group who fits all of those things?

I find it hard to believe anyone could fake the “Story-style” - but as have been pointed out maybe only parts was fake: The Film/Movie-thing

MHaye might have gotten help from the scum-thread - but then I would assume that the false PM might have been a lot of copy/paste from every Story-written scum-PM.
