No Dang it!

I don’t need to ask my wife or dog.

Right now it is almost certainly 6 to 2.

If the player we vote for flips Town, then we are in trouble. Serious trouble.

Get it wrong this time and the the game (Probable 4 wolves assumed to start–no PIS) then the score turns to 4 to 2.

Then we lynch another player and if we are wrong the game turns 2 to 2.

At that point the wolves have control of the voting, and we either have two tie breakers, or we have a loss to the wolves on the first coin flip.

It is not do or die, but we need to get it right toDay.

This game started off with a whole lot of “lynch the lurker” garbage from Scum \*\*Prof. P. \*\*It made no sense at the time, but I think it makes a heck of a lot of sense now. **IRConfused** and **Octarine** were both lurkers and were on my short list of players to lynch. **IRConfused** is now virtually confirmed Town, with a very good reason for lurking. I think **Octarine** has a very good reason for lurking too. It’s not like he hasn’t been posting elsewhere on the SDMB. **Suburban** may be the other wolf, or perhaps there is an investigated Alpha, or maybe I am even wrong about one of my pseudo-masons, **DeadCat** and **Hooker**.

But **Suburban Plankton** has at least been playing. **Octarine** has been AWOL.

Unvote Suburban Plankton

Vote Octarine

And yeah, I could change my mind again. This really is annoying because I have a long day tomorrow and need to be sleeping tonight instead of stressing over this. It is just a game ^ **^#@**!

…step away from the computer…
