Astral blatantly says “I find giraffe more scummy than episkey”, yet you think he peeked me wolf or something? If he peeked you wolf (well, not him but someone else and he got the result) then it was on Night 2. > [@](#): > > 1. “For my earlier case + the message ATPG got” was the reasoning for voting me. The case itself isn’t even a case on me being scum, it’s a review of my posts (again ended by “I find giraffe more scummy than episkey” which is never, ever ,ever ,in the history of ever said if I’m a peeked wolf - which again is impossible). This is exactly why I think he got a peek of you. The case wasn’t even strong enough to vote you Day 2, but Day 3 he votes you as soon as he gets the chance. I don’t think he left a breadcrumb for us to decipher. I think he had a scum result, and was looking for an excuse to vote it. The main reason I have doubts about that is that he also voted gnarly on Day 2, for Silver Jan’s message. Maybe he just wanted to work out if the messages were reliable. And because you seemed kinda townie, working stuff out and all. Though you don’t get any credit for trying to work out your own role. You harping on the weakness of his Day 2 case is not clearing for you at all. I know it was weak. So why did he vote you for it? Doesn’t really matter for today, since Idle is getting lynched today anyway. > [@pwnsall](#): > > weedy when you said you got an investigation of texcat n1 did you also say that was your target n1 She was not my target on N1 or any night. ---

> [@LightFoot](#): > > Interesting ploy by \*\* Idle \*\* > My way of thinking it can’t be true. That would essentialy break the game wouldn’t it? It is definitely not true. It doesn’t even make sense. Idle is getting carried away with his joking around. He is dead anyway, so there is nothing too silly or desperate for him to say right now. If it makes anyone feel better, they can vote to ‘let Idle Thoughts be town’, as long as they also vote for him to be lynched. **Idle Thoughts** ---

> [@Weedy](#): > > Can you please stop? At least with the giant text. [Here’s another for ya.](http://mafiagameswiki.com/mafiaWiki/Monkgate) Near the end of the page: “The ensuing debate saw Idle Thoughts resort to posting in Large Font (deliberately recalling his performance in the Pirates game),…” So it’s sort of like “my thing” and, at this point, expected of me at least once in every game. : p Well, I’ve always had it come out at least once in every game (and even some games I wasn’t in), so I figured it needed a cameo here. Sorry for the annoyance. You’ll probably see it once or twice in future games with me, though, if you play. ---

> [@LightFoot](#): > > Underlining Mine > You targeted me Night 2. You would not have had any result N3 because you can’t target the same person twice. :smack: That’s what I get for trying to work and play mafia at the same time. Of course I would not have been told anything about your Night 3 actions. That being said, it’s doubtful that you were blocked, since you admit to targeting **gnarly** , and he turned up dead just like all of the other people you’ve touched. I think it’s clear that you are either a compulsive Vig, or a compulsive Serial Killer. As such, it’s questionable whether the Town can let you live until end-game, though I don’t think there’s any great urgency to kill you at this point. ---

\*\* SuburbanP\*\* Your knowledge of my redirection D2 fits nicely me being a killer. Your comment about \*\* gnarlie’s \*\* death can’t be true because you did not target me N3 (although I could still be a killer anyway) Does Scum want me to look like a Killer to hide some of their kills? I’d be any easy lynch since I keep killing Town? Is there something else afoot here? ---
