If Jimmy is a wolf we should test MHaye next, for reasons that should be fairly clear. If he’s not then we’re wrong about the testerizer and tomorrow is going to be a really interesting day. You’d basically be faced with 3 villagers, two mafia. At that point it might make sense to come out with faction claims just to get a better sense of the pool. Note: **Mahaloth** is still playing. ---

Agreed, but actually, if **Jimmy** ’s not a wolf then we _really_ need to test **MHaye** , because that would mean the testerizer theory is wrong. But let’s hope that’s not the case. **Vote Jimmy** ---

Let me try that again: Vote Jimmy We need to lynch Jimmy but if he’s right about the testerizer not being figured out then we will be at lynch or lose toMorrow. So we might want to be thinking about how we can catch a wolf. The first thing that comes to mind for me is that when we tested the other JC, MHaye tried to find what made his results different then the prior tested town and then used that as the solution for the testerizer. Hopefully it won’t matter and another fury one bites the dust toNight. ---

As of now i see no pattern in the wolf-town results beyond that which we have already identified: Wolves: Justin ®: Yellow Purple Townsfolk: November (F): Green Red Freudian Slit ®: Aqua Teal SoTaB (F): Black Purple Telcontar ®: Brown Green Unknown: Jimmy: Blue Black Mahaloth CeruleanFuchsia Jimmy, see anything? And you don’t happen to be a farmer, do you? ---

Well, all the townspeople have three syllables or less total in their test results, but that requires the conclusion that **Mahaloth** is a wolf (and you aren’t, and yeah, I see what you did there). If that was two syllables only I think it would be a home run, but three’s a different story. I’m a rancher, incidentally; guess there’s no use holding onto that. ---

How would a wolf die at night? To be more pointed, why are you thinking about killing somebody at night in the first place? Everyone else, is the above true? Is it the case that when I’m lynched and am not a wolf, Town is out of mistakes? Because if that’s the case, uh, I think we should talk about some sort of alternate arrangement. ---

The way I figure it the lynch is what starts the Night so its appropriate to call it toNight. With 7 active players and 2 wolves there are 5 townies left if we lynch wrong and the wolves succeed in the kill tonight toMorrow will see us with three townies and 2 wolves. So it will be our last chance. The other option is to no lynch again and with a wolf kill we will have 4 and 2 and still be at lynch or lose. At least with your death we gain information on the testerizer. ---

Jimmy’s syllable theory could work. If he turns up innocent, Mahaloth is pretty much confirmed wolf, and MHaye doesn’t look too good either. ---

Well, it’s been a scintillating day of discussion here with you kind folks today. I really don’t think it’s a very good idea to lynch me considering the circumstances, but I would say that, wouldn’t I? I’ll be unavailable pretty much all day tomorrow, so this is my last post if the current level of conversation keeps up (such as it is). It’s not a good idea to all stumble down this one path that’s been set out for you, folks. It’s not a good idea not to talk. I guess killing me to determine whether my ideas are good is _sort_ of reasonable… **Lynch…THE INJUSTICE OF IT ALL I mean MHaye** ---

Justin, confirmed wolf, had three syllables in his test results. FS, confirmed townie, also had three. Also Mhaye’s theory was accepted because it was highly plausible. Even if it’s wrong, that doesn’t necessarily count against him. ---
