Given that we’ve only had one poisoning every night until AskthePizzaGuy died, and then one every second night afterwards, I don’t think this holds. ---

> [@Suburban\_Plankton](#): > > claimed targets … except > \*\*septimus \*\*- Nights 6 and 7 I’ve previously reported that I targeted lilflower N6 and felt safe. My role is a form of role-blocking. It may be best to withhold my N7 target for now, so Scum doesn’t know the one player I’ll be unable to divert on Night 8. Here are my notes on target claims. (Obviously some of the scum claims, e.g. EP N6, are suspect.) Please help fix the gaps and errors. ```auto Targets: N0 N1 N2 N3 N4 N5 N6 N7 AR -- -- -- -- *** Shot BM -- GI *** Lynched BR -- -- -- -- *** Dead (Poison) BU PE NA BU LG BU PW NA ??

Does anybody have a read of any sort on **DonkTimesFour**? He replaced \*\*sachertorte \*\*on Day 2, and has barely been heard from since. sachertorte voted for Timelady (later pwnsall) on Day 1, and was the first person to vote for Blaster Master on Day 2. Since then, Dx4 has voted for Day 3: nobody Day 4: Idle (10th vote) Day 5: Nobody Day 6 :crackedquads (2nd vote) Day 7: Episkey (9th vote) Day 8: nobody (so far) He hasn’t named any of his targets, and the only result he has reported was being told that Dancecat was Town, which he only revealed the Day after Dancecat was killed. I’ve practically forgotten he was in the game, but he’s starting to make me nervous… ---

Oh right - no, gonna move it off. But there doesn’t seem to be much point now - he’s not up for lynch or anything. And given the wagons are DrainBead or LightFoot, I’m happy with either of those as lynches. ---

\*\* unvote \*\* With the no results thing either \*\* giraffe or Normal or myself \*\* could be the lost Mason. I’d vote Donk at this point but that would not give me any chance of survival \*\* Vote DrainBead \*\* I believe Day is until 6 Eastern ---

> [@LightFoot](#): > > I’d vote Donk at this point but that would not give me any chance of survival How is that, exactly? Your vote on **Drain Bead** made the count 6-2. If you had voted for \*\*Donk \*\*instead, the vote would have been…6-2. It seems to me that your chance would have been just as good either way. In fact, at this point, you probably would have had an easier time convincing people to move votes off of you in order to lynch the lurker, rather than “the other person who is probably Scum if LightFoot is Town”. ---
