Shit now I have to vote using my phone. But hey, confirmed Scum! **unvote Episkey vote Idle** There’s at least one easy way I can think of to test if what he said about my role is true. I’ll likely do one of those things toNight. I can act twice, so I’ll use one of my actions to test my role. Everything he said COULD be true, so it’s worth it. ---

See, one reason my position, now, is so great…is I could tell you all the perfect truth and you wouldn’t believe me. Ya’ll wouldn’t know what to believe. I could tell you that **NAF, Episkey, Septimus** and **pwnsall** are the last four remaining scum after me, and you’d dismiss it immediately just because I’m admitted scum and because no scum would ever, ever do a thing like blatantly putting all of his scumbuddies in the open like that, right? 🙂 So great! What else can I honestly tell that you’ll smack your heads over, at the end of the game, when it turns out to be true all long? ---

Sigh. The timing of this works out well for me actually. Im town. I will vote for idle when I get to a computer, coding us too hard on my phone. Vig, you must know who you are by now. Kill me tonight. I start school on Thursday anyway, and probably won’t be able to keep up after that. I don’t think I can avoid the lynch at this point and it us better than town wasting tomorrow lynch on me. Don’t listen to anything idle had said since he claimed. Look back at the events if today and day two closely. Idle’s death probably shifted the power balance firmly into towns court but it isn’t that wide a margin. Don’t fuck it up. ---

I’m telling you, vote **Ed** …he’s definitely a third party. Malicious or not, I don’t know, but why take the chance? If I tell the truth about anything, it’s this. ---

I guess this is as good a time as any to throw this out, since the discussion is currently centered on Vigilantes: I am a Town Tracker. Night 0 I tracked **Krayz** , but received no result. Night 1 I tracked **Episkey** , and saw him visit **Silver Jan**. Night 2 I tracked **LightFoot**. I was told that she started to go one direction, then turned around and visited \*\*peeker \*\*instead. So I deduce that she targeted \*\*crackedquads \*\*but was redirected to **peeker**. Night 3 I tracked someone who has not yet reported anything, so I don’t want to reveal my result yet. So it looks like \*\*LightFoot \*\*is either a Vig, a Serial Killer, or the designated Scum killer. ---

Looking at the Night 3 deaths, it would appear we have (assuming \*\*LightFoot \*\*is \*not \*the Scum killer): Askthepizzaguy - Mod Kill brewha - poisoned by Pizza gnarlycharlie - killed by LightFoot TexCat - killed by Scum Astral Rejection - killed by the Masons Did either **TexCat** or \*\*gnarlycharlie \*\*express any particular distrust of **Astral**? Also, we appear to have had two people redirected on Night 2 (\*\*LightFoot \*\*and **J.D.** ). J.D. reports he was informed of the redirection; LightFoot has claimed ignorance of that fact. As far as I recall, nobody has claimed to have been redirected on Nights 1 or 3. Absent any roleblocks, there should have been 4 more redirects. Do we have any signs of them? ---

You’re wrong, Sub Plank. **Brewha** vigged **Gnarly**. We killed **Astral**. Therefore it’s\*\* Texcat\*\*'s death that is unaccounted for. See? I’m useful. You should all keep me around!
