> [@Gadarene](#): > > Weekends make it hard tho. Plus I’m gonna be in Vegas on Friday so I figured I might as well give people until Saturday morning for the day; that way I don’t have to take too-frequent breaks from playing poker to do votecounts and the reveal. You could end the next day on Thursday, then the day after that on Saturday, imo 🙂 > [@pwnsall](#): > > **crackedquads** > > summary of case on Precambrianmollusc > > i really am liking my theory Go find my vote (2143 I believe) and work your way up from there and into the last page. See precamb’s day one vote (his first post of the game). Or you could simply search for precamb’s posts and see how unhelpful he has been to the village but still manages to post just enough about mechanics and such. His only contribution has been casting a vote on krayz and pushing that villager’s wagon further away from wagon #2. He manages to come in and do this despite not making a single other post itt beforehand. Later I try to get him to provide something substantial, he provides a wall of text which still doesn’t actually say anything of his own opinion, and then when I ask him to provide reads/opinions on 3 random players he flat out refuses. Precamb could still be a villager and just be a convenient target for buff, or buff could just be a lazy villager, I dunno. I haven’t read up on buff yet. ---

> [@bufftabby](#): > > buff. she. > We’ve only had one Wolf mod-revealed in this game. **PM** ’s behavior matches that of said Wolf. That behavior gave that wolf away yesterDay, IMO. It would be silly for me to tiptoe around my vote yesterDay. yeah, i’m not buying that at all, but i do buy that you spewed your partner wolf **unvote** **Precambrianmollusc** ---

> [@lilflower](#): > > I don’t like the way the \*\*BlasterMaster \*\*band wagon is out there all by itself. If he’s scum, shouldn’t we have a closer race to the noose? This. This just seems weird. Judging from around post 2230, Votes fell off of SilverJan and GnarelyCharile and have inexplicable been piling up on BlaM. It just doesn’t seem right. If Blam were scum, wouldn’t his scum buddies be trying to get someone else lynched? Is he just being bussed? I’m guess that SilverJan really is scum and her fellow scum are sitting happily on the BlaM Wagon right now. There’s only 15 mins or so left, but I’m going to go with Vote Inner Stickler I like Texcat’s case. I’d elaborate, but there’s little time left toDay. ---

As I said before, I don’t like the \*\*BlasterMaster \*\*bandwagon. I’m not convinced he’s town per se, but I do think he’s got too much of a lead to be scum. **unvote Scuba Ben vote Inner Stickler** ---

a runaway wagon isn’t always a villager. pretty frequently wolves will see a teammate getting voted, dub them unsavable, and hop on for credit. i have no reason to believe that isn’t happening here. the inner stickler counterwagon seems strong enough, too, so idk what the issue is. ---
