Well, we have unexplained kills coming from somewhere. You can call them SK or you can call them LUTHA, whatever.

But yeah, I got it in my head originally, like everyone else, that Normal Phase was killed by mafia and that the Outrider got Septimus.

This might be worth checking with the mods to confirm.

Thanks for clarifying. I started to ask but I’m on my kindle and it decided to misbehave.

Huh. Well, that changes things as far as Cookies goes. Given that info, we know Septimus was not the Mafia’s DK.

Cookies as zoning inspector - blocks Septimus. Means that Boozy couldn’t have caused Septimus to die, which means he had to be targeted by an SK. But if he was, then MHaye would have seen it. Not possible.

Cookies as anything else - Bloodhound is the only other known role that could target. Not implausible, but given the fact that Septimus died, SK becomes way more likely. This only requires that he choose not to self protect, which is reasonable since he was outted he would be an obvious target for the Outrider.

Thank you.

So we can determine from this that Mafia as a team did not kill Septimus.  
Your theory as to how Sept might have died from Boozy is certainly possible…but not plausible. Even were this to be the case, that would still mean that Cookies was doing something there. So it’s going to be up to her to tell us what that something is. Without that explanation, I’m willing to assume the worst.

The problem for me is that if we’re to assume Cookies is a SK, there’s not much I can do to either confirm or deny it.

First of all, thank you for coming forward with your info. For now, I don’t see any reason to doubt you.

As for the bolded part, we string her up to confirm.

\*\* cookies \*\* could also be the trickster ( wolf role blocker)- when you update your list.

This appears to be sole contribution from cookies toDay.

Somehow I doubt we’ll get much in the way of explanation.

Yeah, I’m 3rd party SK and despite seeming to have been hanging in there even with some hiccups, I’ve apparently been ironically totally humped since Day 1 and just didn’t know it. We can talk about it more later. No need to take up space in the thread or time squinting at my phone fighting any inevitabilities.

No idea what Mhaye is, but he is wasn’t on my list to kill soon and he is correct about my Day 1 actions. Well played, Sir. I will probably take at least another of you out with me. 0:) Your parents would be so proud.

Nate I was wondering the same thing…

I guess we will find out at the noose, but we know she is neither 1st nor 2nd in the LUTHA hierarchy. So unless there is a Dear Leader type of cult role, Cookies may not be LUTHA.

Which would be a bit of a relief for me, as I want to trust that the cultists are merely survivors, and not actually dangerous.

NETA I am also wondering if Cookies will explain the hiccups experienced.

Well, is she’s willing to off our prime scumspects? Maybe we let her live a while…?

But I am reluctant, personally, to let a SK live. I’d like her to clue us in as much as possible before death, but I don’t know how that would benefit her.

Well I’m hoping she gets eaten or shot so we can focus on scum lynching…but that might just be wishful thinking.
