I realized my second vote looked bandwagon-ish when I posted it. But, as has been reiterated, I was suspicious of **Malacandra** since Day 2. I had even voted for him previously. I was just glad to see someone else’s FOS pointed the same direction as mine.

BTW, I’m a she. 😉

First, I’d like to propose a naming convention for all Dopers. Men must have a name that ends in a hard consonent or the masculine ‘o’. Women must all have names that end in the feminine ‘a’. Therefore, from here on out I will simply be Brew. I also propose the name changes of Malacandro, StarvingButStronga, and howcowa.

**Queuing** , I see your reasoning for voting MonkeyMensch. I would be with you on that if you can explain away my reasoning for not voting. Why would a mafia switch their votes from who they knew was not mafia to a person who they knew was mafia. I could see that happening as a smoke screen if their brother mafia was already doomed to have their neck stretched, but to change a vote that makes the top two tied? I can’t see a reason a mafia would do that.

I suppose MM could be the SK, but I’m not willing to vote on a wild guess.

Vote **cowgirl**

In addition to what **Lakai** said, her unvote/revote of **MadTheSwine** worries me, specificially the “But for now, I am not convinced enough to drive this bandwagon, so unvote MadTheSwine.” and then “This is a bandwagon I would rather get behind. unvote Malacandra, vote MadTheSwine.” Makes it sound like a bandwagon for MTS is okay as long as she’s not the one who might get blamed for it.

[/QUOTE]

To be honest I don’t know that I have a great reason for that. Yes, MM did switch his vote onto SP. He had to switch his vote to look townie. Maybe he was confused as to who was leading? Maybe it was just a smokescreen so he (or someone defending him) could say just what you are saying. There is no way that throughout this game scum have not voted for scum. It has to happen at some point. While that point worries me, from what else I see seems to point to scum, to me at least. I believe MM to be scum do to a totality of evidence, and will not be swayed by one point. Particularly since the bandwagon had formed on SP, and it seemed somewhat inevitable that we were going to get enough votes to lynch him.

For what it’s worth, that was actual suspicion, because his arguments against me didn’t make any sense, and he seemed really desperate to throw accusations in an apparently random direction. I didn’t vote for him because after looking at this other posts, I didn’t see anything that looked especially suspicious to me.

[QUOTE=Lakai]  
[This](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8424297&postcount=1266) is the only post by Malacandra supporting the plan you are talking about. It was post 1266. Since Pleonast claimed, Zuma soon replaced him in the conditional. In post [1374](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=8424951#post8424951) you vote for a Vig hit on Zuma. That is 108 posts latter, not 500 (conveniently slipped from your memory maybe?) At that time your [vote](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=8422599#post8422599) was still on Gadarene and it never changes.  
[/QUOTE]  
Actually, I was talking about my post in the 1500’s, but that still isn’t 500 posts, so I don’t know where that number I mentioned came from, to be honest.

And you’re still (intentionally?) misunderstanding – the 2nd and 3rd people to go along with the plan were scum. Is it any stretch to think that the 1st person was, too? I’m not talking about who ended up voting for the plan, I’m talking about the first few people who said the plan was a good idea in the first place! Why are you defending \*\*Malacandra \*\* so hard?

[QUOTE=Lakai]  
Malacandra supported a plan where two towns die and so did you. What difference does it make when Malacandra supported the plan? The results are the same, two townsmen die.  
[/QUOTE]  
Everybody supported the plan. Well, almost everybody; I really don’t have the time to look back. My issue was with the \*\*way \*\* the bandwagoning began, and the posting pattern of scum latching on to \*\*StarvingButStrong’s \*\* proposals and votes.

Votes are all over the place, its still anybodys lynch.

2- Malacandra - (ArizonaTeach, hocow)  
1- Aguecheek - (MonkeyMench)  
1- brewha - (lakai)  
1- cowgirl - (kat)  
1- Lakai - (brewha)  
1- MonkeyMensch - (Queuing)  
1- Pygmy Rugger - (storyteller)  
24 hours 15 minutes left before nightfall folks. Time to start making up your mind.

And, as a reminder, a no lynch vote is always a possibility. It hasn’t been discussed since the game started, but it is possible.

Does anyone have the time to do Queuing? I’ve been asking myself why he is so trustworthy. I know the town was pretty hell bent on lynching him back on day two, but for some reason (which I can’t recall) he has gone from least trusted to more-or-less trusted.

I’m beginning to not trust Queuing - for two reasons. First there’s his dogged pursuit of Monkeymensch. I don’t know for sure if Monkey is a town or mafia, but there is at least one event that makes him more likely to be town than mafia.

Then, there’s my case against Lakai. OK, I could be wrong about him, but I’m quite certain he’s scum. Queuing didn’t even entertain my accusation. He just brushed it off and went on to make a different case.

Anyone else have an opinion about Lakai? Anyone want to wade through Queuing’s posts? I’m gonna go back to the day two mess and see if I can find what detracted from the mistrust toward Queuing.

Sorry, I didn’t see the assignment on Friday evening when I had time, so I bit the bullet and did **Queuing** instead. It’s all coded and bolded, but probably contains a lot of my shorthand notes, 'cause it was frigging long, and I am loath to go over it again…

And I just tried posting it and it seems I screwed up the coding. Give me a bit.

Looking forward to your Queuing report. I went back over the day two voting. I still don’t have a good read on Queuing, but it is leaning less scummy than it was before.

[QUOTE=StarvingButStrong]

- He cast his first vote for Autolycus saying he saw no reason to delay the lynch, though there had been many posts pointing out that the longer the town takes to discuss during a day, the more info they gain. He later unvotes Autolycus, which could have been to avoid the perception of scumminess.

[/QUOTE]

I did want to adress this issue, but couldn’t at the time of my unvote. After I was certain that Autolycus was the Godfather (yes, I now realize that I was very wrong), I didn’t see a reason to delay the lynching.

After thinking about it for awhile, I realized that there was a very good reason to delay his death. If he were the GF, mafia would be popping up out of the woodwork to defend him. Since, I could see no way to defend his remarks, those that were actually defending him were likely mafia. I couldn’t come out and say that that is why I unvoted him, because the mafia would clam up about it. Of course, this would have only worked had Auto actually been the GF…

[Post 268](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8405659&postcount=268) – Asks if people should post their experience. Claims he read 1st thread everyday, suspected **Suburban Plankton** of being mason, agreed that **sturmhauke** was seer in the forbidden thread  
[Post 304](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8405976&postcount=304) - Responds to **Rysto** (pres #300), that Mafia could determine false cops quickly, since they know who’s scum and who’s town, therefore finding real cops. **Rysto** was replying to **CaerieD** D, re: chrisk’s suggestion, re: “cop results.” Agrees w/ **Rysto** , suggests striking chrisk and ET from those to be killed now. Not because he believes chrisk (he doesn’t), but because the latter should always give his info. “We wait until he sees a bad guy…kill that bad guy…If right, maybe he’s a cop. If not, then he’s dead. I know there is only a 50% chance he is right…” Suggests acting on what info we have, regardless of the truth. Votes **sturmhauke** , because “he played the best…from the last time, and did not get killed.”

[Post 367](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8407265&postcount=367) – agrees that dnooman was the mafia kill due to spreadsheet and skill at guessing roles. Analyzes OAOW complaining about night posts and rebutting chrisk, re: night posts. Still trusts chrisk. Nothing on Captain Carrot. Suggests OAOW was killed by SK, carrot by the Vig. Wants to hear from **Autolycus**. States that he’s got a couple of distrusts and one vote due to his prolific posting. Claims he won’t stop. Trying to see the experience of playesr and catch them in a lie. “If you lie once, you should die.” Confirms **sturmhauke** vote.  
[Post 368](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8407272&postcount=368) – adds to chrisK posting cop results that got cut off.

Re: asking for experience – trying to find out if people would lie about it. Re: 304/367 – re: voting for **sturmhauke**. Admits the reasons aren’t good, but claims that no one had good reasons. Vote was based on who’d been killed, not what’d been said. Defends self against **Pleonast** for trust of ET and ChrisK. Confirms distrusts – **sturmhauke** , already stated, **Gadarene** for night posting and not saying much…no longer true. Reasoning same for **pimaspinner**.

Analyses **CaerieD** ’s posts, mistrusting **BlasterMaster** , and the “ **Menocchio** crumb.” Notes she voted for **sturmhauke**. Notes **BlasterMaster** suggested SK kill **CaerieD**. Pushes to lynch either **sturmhauke** or **BlasterMaster**. Due to lack of time later on, votes **BlasterMaster**.  
[Post 599](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8414282&postcount=599) – lists all trust lists. Figures it’s ‘cause he didn’t want to lynch ET, fishing for experience, and being too defensive. Joke about talking too much. Claims this will be the last time defending him self. Props to **Rysto** for his analysis and vote for chrisk, won’t change vote, though.  
[Post 679](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8415358&postcount=679) – responds to **BlasterMaster** ’s post on strategy and **CaerieD** D’s suspects.

[Post 968](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8420365&postcount=968) – reconfirms FOS of **BlasterMaster** , states that he thinks he was **CaerieD** ’s breadcrumb. Will gain more info by lynching **BlasterMaster**. Discusses reasons for not thinking **Menocchio** was breadcrumb, but won’t for him. Reconfirms “lynch all liars.” Claims to have jumped no bandwagons. States reasons for mistrust of **sturmhauke** again. FOS **BlasterMaster** again and **Pleonast**.

[Post 1404](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8425282&postcount=1404) – doesn’t believe **zuma** (after **Pleonast** confirms). Maybe real masons just haven’t posted yet. This is either a scum conspiracy (revealed after his death and **zuma** ’s assassination). More roles to kill from scum. Or town’s a big clusterfuck and mafia’s laughing their asses off. Lists **sturmhauke** , **Fretful Porpentine** , **StarvingButStrong** , smitty, **hocow** , **kivvik** , **Aguecheek** , **ArizonaTeach** as low posters. If second scenario, go for them.

Those who voted ET, 5 are confirmed town (“assuming we believe all role claims, as this has been my strategy since the beginning, it isn’t changing now). Lists day 2 votes (omits **Aguecheek** vote for him). Comes up w/ some correlation for **FCOD** , **ArizonaTeach** , **storyteller**. Wonders about non voters from day 1 (lists them). Wonders re: **brewha** voting for **BlasterMaster** , Q, **Gadarene** …kept jumping on bandwagons. FOS **MonkeyMensch** for “acting in concert w/ **nesta** ,” no voting and bandwaggoning. Not casting a vote yet. Wants confirmed townies to vote 1st. Suggests 28 townies left. Scum: **brewha** , Monkeymensch, **Aguecheek** , **FCOD**.

Helpful in the last game doesn’t help. Asks **Kat** about conclusions from [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=8431127&postcount=1693).

If **hocow** is SK, he/she can just choose not to kill. No way to know who SK is until someone kills them.

And that’s what I’ve got. There are some editorials of mine in there, thoughts that poked up while I was reading. Some I erased when the questions were cleared up, some stayed in because the question was still there, some stayed in because I forgot about them and wasn’t going to go back and look for them. There were no more posts by the time I finished, and I wasn’t going to refresh looking for more, either.

Writing quickly to say sorry for my nonparticipation over the last few days. New Jersey Comcast sucks, and I experienced all kinds of cable and Internet interruptions over the weekend. Fortunately, I am now back at work, with a reliable connection and a bit of free time this afternoon. I’m’a gonna’ do a bit of catch up reading and be back with further thoughts later.

But on first glance: wow. That’s a lot of very impressive work by everyone. This may take a while.

Oops, I forgot about **Rysto**. I’ll still shame him for not voting, but don’t think anyone should vote for him.

Confirmed Townies are not on the list (me and **sturmhauke** ). **Menocchio** is probably excused as well, but isn’t absolutely confirmed.
