> **Episkey** , for [this post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=14151225&postcount=393), which feels like scum cuddling to me. If he’s scum, he knows I’m Town, so I’ll react favorably to him reading everything I’ve said in such a forgiving light. Town on the other hand had every reason to be suspicious of my early interactions with **DanceCat** and shouldn’t be so quick to clear me of all charges.

**Episkey**? _Really?_

I was skimming, but there was at least one post I saw of his which was totally awesome.

Hmm will take a closer look but honestly I think not right now. We’ll see if that can be changed in a re-read.

I’m not dismissing it at all. I’m open minded to believe either could have happened, whereas, to me, -you- seem to be the one dismissing the idea that scum could have done exactly what you thought they wouldn’t do just to fool you.

* * *

As long as posting who else you’re suspicious of seems to be the theme of the day:

I don’t like **PCM** for the reasons I stated when I voted for him.  
I’m not so hot on how **Scuba Ben** has been acting, flip flopping votes yesterDay before finally settling on **Krayz.**  
Like **Episkey** said earlier, I’ve been harboring believes that the wolves have to have at least one Other Boarder among them. Since I don’t think it’s Dancecat anymore and it wasn’t **Krayz,** this makes me grow all the others in suspicion in my mind. That leaves **crackedquads, Episkey, TimeLady, mykbot** , and **sangaman**. **Crackedquads** and **Episkey** have seemed to be posting helpful, thoughtful posts, so far. I haven’t really gotten any hard read on **TimeLady** yet..and is **mykbot** in this game, still, even? Seriously, I’d like to see more from you, you don’t seem to be posting as much so it makes it hard to decide either way (but looks scummy the longer you do it).

As for **sangaman** , his low post count could be attributed to the fact that he just subbed in…–however–, I really don’t like that post that he says I thought **peekercpa** was a villager. It could be because he got his players mixed up and meant **dancecat** , but the way he goes on about it (attributing it to the reason **Peeker** wasn’t lynched yesterDay), sounds like it’s some sort of info he knew about YESTERDAY. I could see it being something he slipped on based on something he saw or heard of elsewhere. It just rubs me the wrong way. So I consider him to be the strongest suspected person of the POG group.

\*\*mykbot-

\*\*Could just be away from the computer. Give a round benefit of the doubt.

After that I’ll start firin’ mah lazar at myk and if I can’t kill myk then start using myk as a default lynch unless you’ve got better leads that round.

No lurker victories.

Come on, Peeker. I know you’re joking around (and most do) but this is getting a little out of hand for the Game Forum. Dial back the insults just a tad. I don’t want to have to tell you I’m doing this as a mod, yet, so just take it as a friendly suggestion from a player who knows you. : p

i mean if i was going to seriously insult someone it would probably involve simians and goats. jeez. when did everyone get all chapped? i mean if it was the time at the beach a little bit of noxzema kinds of clears it up for me by the next morning.

Okay, we can test that theory. Suggest targeting NAF with your power. He did vote for you and has had plenty of opportunity to talk. No posts from NAF would probably confirm it, and not only that, he’s one of Giraffe’s top suspects, and the only one I could agree with if I did which I’m not sure I do.

I don’t think low of you at all, Peeker…because I know you and you’re style of play.

Suffice to say, what you just revealed is interesting, but I wouldn’t totally put the bet on you being a silencer…he may have just not found time to post today.  
I’m a little leery of it too (as I said in post 1383) and hope he posts more…so we’ll see what we’ll see as the Day goes on.

Quibble: NAF is not one of my “top suspects,” he’s just someone i think could be a possible wolf if we assume peeker is Town.

and maybe i am all wet. that happens more often than not. it just seemed odd that he was pretty prolific yesterDay and then nada toDay. and maybe i jumped the stinking gun. he’ll probably post a ton and i will look like the idiot that i am.

Okay, but allow me to counter-quibble.

You presently have peeker as a top suspect. I asked for your best guesses of scumbags if peeker is scum and peeker is not scum.

You mentioned two names if peeker is not scum, iirc, that you went into detail on.

So, like it or not, you’ve told me that NAF is one of your top suspects. If he’s not, then we simply disagree on what “top suspects” means. I think I could argue it meets the definition.

and i swear no matter what **idle** or **quacked** might think i don’t play dirty. i play within the rules for goodness sakes. and nothing i say in here should be transported out of here. i mean i want to win but i don’t want to be a pariah. i’ll just quit again if it comes to that.

So after all this I think **Peeker** could possibly be Town. He is jarring and rude but he is also a lot of fun and I have no idea where to place a vote.

after consultation with the hamsters’ bosses i guess i can continue to play. i have been limited in my ability to respond in my normal manner, however. so i hope that you wonderful beautiful folks will be able to aptly empathize with my inner most feelings.

those are some beautiful shoes you have there **jan**

and **giraffe** that haircut does make you looks so handsome.

i am sure that i will have many more for you fine, wonderful and generous folks in the times ahead.
