(Another brief one, y’all. I need to start ending the days during the actual daytime so I can wax a bit more prolix. 🙂 ) _ **Projammer** is lynched with his trademark glass of milk in his hand. The glass of milk is a bit of a giveaway, I suppose. I probably should have mentioned it earlier._ Projammer, a Do-Gooder, is dead. Night begins now and ends Sunday evening at 11:45 p.m. my time. Everyone, submit your night instructions before then. ---

Oh cripes, this is getting just plain silly. Sorry for the whole…you know…killing you thing, **Projammer**. Ok, I’ve got it! Everyone (except myself, of course) volunteer for a mass lynching tomorrow morning. If I’m the only one left, then the town wins! And of course, anyone who doesn’t agree with this plan of action is obviously Mafia… ---
