Snickers did not swing her vote over to Stickler. She and Stickler were tied a 3 votes, but she hit 3 first and died.

Town players on this board really, REALLY need to get over this idea that not defensive voting is a good play.

I could accept it if Snickers honestly thought Stickler was Town, but she outright posts that she hopes her sacrifice will get Town to lynch Stickler Tomorrow.  
What?!  
Why not just change your vote and lynch Stickler TODAY?!

My money is on USCDiver as the last scum.

Who thinks this? I guess Snickers did, but it’s a newbie error. I always vote defensively if I’m town and up for the lynch(or if I’m scum for that matter).

Someone else did it in this game earlier while I was still alive. I’m so not going back over 60 pages to find who it was though.

I feel for you, Drain. I have had streaks of hitting scum three times in a row, or four times out of five sort of thing, and good god does it get old. Here’s hoping you get your wish in Evil Dead.
