Just the last two scum also not likely (unless two Crimson Thorn slut/prostitute), especially since JoeyP claimed someone slept with him after the lynch.

That’s **Natlaw** ’s [Post D3.806.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=11458811&postcount=806) I hid it to save space.

My explanation is my irl job— I’m on-call for a local delivery outfit and trying to post from home when I can. I wanted to explain this in my following posts (for Day 2) but never got around to it. Sorry if this has caused confusion. In hindsight, I should have left that part out.

Mental Guy was on my list of FOS candidates (also included **Boozy, NAF** and **Story** ). I saw he was up for lynching, I was pressed for time and wanted to get a vote in before I had to rush off (irl again).

Here are the following posts that took place, RE, where both **Boozy** and me revealed ourselves:

[Post D2.562](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=11432609&postcount=562)  
[Post D2.564](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=11432614&postcount=564)

I did NOT actually have Boozy back up my claim— that was a slip on my part. What I did was investigated **Boozy** and he revealed his role to me in Daylight.

Here is my PM for that Night:  
"You were courageous enough to use your sources to investigate Boozahol. Your sources worked quickly and filed this report to you:

“Boozahol is actually a local gunman, but we heard he he is a bit nervous and anxious. He is a townsperson, though.”

Now, how would Boozy know this, unless he were scum with the power to conceal himself to investigations and KNOW who investigated him at Night? This goes beyond my reasoning, but begs to consider just how Weird this game really is.

Note: All quotes are from **Natlaw** ’s post 806 (except where I’m named).
