Nothing, actually. I wrote that comment in response to me getting voted the pendant. ---

That’s my mistake, should not be at -1. **Astral should be at +2** , my count has him at **10** still. I triple-checked to make sure. I believe my count was correct and you had the error here. Can you double-check yours? ---

Not that I noticed. How bizarre. **Pizza can you confirm that’s not an error?** What sort of items do you have, Weedy? The rest matches yesterday, not counting the non-appearance of the extra Pizza votes. ---

I’ve noted the differences between my vote tally and the ‘Official’ numbers **Astral Rejection: 10** - The ‘triple vote’ appears to be here I have Astral Rejection (7): [del]Pizza (1027-1197)[/del], [del]Pizza (1027-1197)[/del], [del]Pizza (1027-1197)[/del], [del]Normal Phase (1035-1213)[/del], [del]septimus (1141-1332)[/del], Silver Jan (1202), Visorslash (1203), Guiri (1218), [del]choie (1229-1411)[/del], Tanaer (1231-1345), ToeJam (1234), Normal Phase (1368), septimus (1405), MHaye (1449), Weedy (1457), **extra vote, extra vote, extra vote** Gadarene: 3 Weedy: 2 - It looks like Weedy lost a vote? I have Weedy (3): Red Skeezix (995), gnarlycharlie (1041), Gadarene (1461) Normal Phase: 2 Tanaer: 1 Scathach: 1 Believerer: 1 Choie: 1 Abstain/Present/Unvoted: 2 - there is one extra vote here, as NAF1138 is the only person to have voted ‘Abstain’. No tiebreaker needed. **Blue Pendant:** **Normal Phase: 4** Silver Jan: 3 Visorslash: 2 - another extra vote here I have Visorslash (1): Visorslash (770) gnarly: 1 Lightfoot: 1 BobAargh: 1 Suburban Plankton: 1 No tiebreaker needed. **Sapphire Ring:** **Lightfoot: 4** - an extra vote here I have LightFoot (3): LightFoot (851), septimus (870), Normal Phase (1265) Fubbleskag: 3 - 2 extra votes here? I have fubbleskag (1): Astral Rejection (804) Normal Phase: 1 BobAargh: 1 Suburban Plankton: 1 I also have Visorslash (1): Visorslash (770) Guiri (1): realitytrip (1181), it appears these votes disappeared? No tiebreaker needed. \*\*Emerald Ring: \*\* **choie: 5** Visorslash: 3 - 2 extra votes here I have Visorslash (1): Visorslash (770-777), fubbleskag (779) PetW: 1 - this is an extra vote Lightfoot: 1 Gadarene: 1 Tanaer: 1 ToeJam: 1 Suburban Plankton: 1 and I have fubbleskag (1): Visorslash (777), which is not here ## No tiebreaker needed. So it appears, assuming my count was correct, that we have Triple Vote on Astral Rejection One hidden vote change from Weedy to ‘Abstain/Present/No Action’ One hidden vote for Blue Pendant to Visorslash One hidden vote for Sapphire Ring to LightFoot Two hidden votes for Sapphire ring to fubbleskag One hidden unvote for Sapphire Ring from Visorslach One hidden unvote for Sapphire Ring from Guiri Two hidden votes for Emerald Ring to Visorslash One hidden unvote for Emerald Ring from fubblekag ---

Both non-Pizza extra votes on Astral this time; traitor didn’t bother. ---

At least it’s not just me. Tally, you’ve angered me for the last time! _shakes fist_ I am being extremely careful with the lynch and item votes, concerning the obvious leaders. I routinely double-check the leaders to make sure the vote counts are valid if they’re even remotely close to each other. ---

Astral has been obviously town ever since the wagon surge on him two days ago. Let’s keep mislynching, though, by all means. :rolleyes: ---

Suburban, re-read your own count for Astral. You have one of the unvotes not struck through, and after you do that, the count should be eight. Two hidden votes make 10. Double-check that? ---

Two things: 1: I need to learn my numbers 2: I should preview I had 8 votes counted for Astral, though I had a total marked down of ‘7’ (also, I messed up the coding, but that’s a different problem. So my count agrees with Pizza’s for Astral, and he seems to have already corrected himself where Weedy is concerned. So Astral picked up 2 votes, and Weedy neither gained nor lost. There is still the issue of Abstain/Present/Unvoted: 2 NAF1138 voted ‘abstain’ septimus voted ‘present’, but eventually voted for Astral **Is the count of ‘2’ for ‘Abstain/Present/Unvoted’ correct?** ---

Also, if Astral _does_ flip town, the wagon surge on him needs to be examined. ---
