But if we are operating on the assumption that miller = 3 scum, then in this scenario it would still be 5 -1.

[QUOTE=pedescribe]  
My theroy: he and either RoOsh or Bufftabby (if I’m right, it’s probably bufftabby, since RoOsh is working on her, and she’s the highest vote getter, so he’s trying to distince himself from that whole mess) are working to lose the town by this: Lynch a townie today, then RyJae takes a dive. While town is distracted, the last scum builds up massive townie cred, and we lose the coin flip on the last day. It’s a good plan, but scum smoke machines are generally easier to spot than unknown smoke machines.

I don’t understand what you mean. Please tell me Tomorrow what you’re saying that I am doing, and who it is that’s distancing himself from what. Too many pronouns! Thank you.

Really quick. The events of Today, looking over the votes, leads me to favor **RoOsh** as the last scum over bufftabby, in the event that I don’t survive the Night. Of course, that’s not worth a whole lot given that I don’t have any time to explain. So take it for what it’s worth.

You ever notice how time drags when you’re waiting to find out if you just killed an innocent man or righteously struck down the guilty?

No?

Nevermind then.

And someone needs to poke Dio and/or Roosh in the offboard game. The way that thing has ground to a halt is so boring.

We’re just waiting for YOU guys in the offboard games. I wanted it over by Tuesday, but then everyone had to go AND UNVOTE and irk the Day mod, who then made the deadline until Friday for those bunch of indecisive fools…

They dug their graves and they should lie in it. I wanted that day over by Weds, but the inmates made it Friday by their actions.
