> [@Weedy](#): > > When did Idle say he targeted Episkey? Many times, haven’t you been following along? : p My power as traitor is that I reveal the name of a real wolf to my target (although I didn’t know this until toDay (last Night’s results)). So I targeted a fellow scum just to try to get info about my role. ---

It’s obvious you haven’t been all this time. I’ve already said a few times that my REAL ROLE IS SCUM TRAITOR. But you’re doing good by voting Episkey. Vote for NAF, pwnsall, and septimus the next few days. ---

> [@LightFoot](#): > > Good question there Jan. > That was my second thought on the matter. ( but of course now he will say yes it was -because of his traitor role) I think the same way BUT if he hadn’t been caught he would have won on the Wolf’s side, so I think it was a mistake and because we don’t know our own roles he is making the most of it. ---

**unvote Episkey** Idle originally said he targeted himself last night. I wish people would stop quoting him as if what he was saying was in any way useful. Sorry, I kinda panicked there and voted too quickly, because I thought it was almost EoD ---

NETA I wonder if I give happy, healthy glows to people?? I know I am not a Roleblocker but a few people have come up with the healthy/wam glow thing and I wonder if there is a difference between the “good” feelings? ---

No, don’t do that. That might give you away. Right now I’ve got so much confusion and chaos in that thread that they don’t know what to believe, haha. I’ll try to keep it up until Day’s end. But listen, right now you should be in the clear on my death, even with the heat you had on you earlier. And no other scum have any on them right now, so it’s not too unlikely we’ll reach endgame. And while I’m still alive: I think PCM should target Lightfoot toNight (too much of a chance she’ll hit one of us if she’s telling the truth), Scuba should try Silver Jan (any action against a roleblocker is good news) and you could probably try NAF. My .02 anyway. Oh, and crackquads needs to die. : p Seriously, he’s just too good of a player plus I’ve been saying he’s going to die toNight via scum, so it might lend credence to my other lies. ---

Idle has earned at least 87 Bonus Points for his obfuscative abilities Today. Too bad for him that they aren’t actually worth anything…but at least he’s has made the Day a bit more interesting than it otherwise might have been. ---

> [@Suburban\_Plankton](#): > > Well, it is almost EoD, but I’m not sure why that would make you panic. It’s not as if anyone is counting on your vote to secure the lynch. Cos I think Episkey is good at turning away suspicion. If I die tonight, I wanted to have a vote on record. But now I am not sure again. I’m looking for a list of messages. Instead of comparing ‘wolf’ messages to each other and ‘village’ messages to each other, I am wondering if we can compare the number of incorrect and correct messages from day to day. There were two ‘wolf’ messages yesterday. Are they both incorrect? We have at least one incorrect message whisperer, who whispered gnarly was sucm, but do we have two (not counting Blaster)? If there are not 2 incorrect whisperers, then one of NAF and Episkey is scum. I reread NAF, but he confuses me even when he is town so that didn’t help.
