Just a reminder, Day 2 gets 24 hour extension, runs thru 12/31. Ends at 3:30 PM CDT on 12/31. At this point there’s about 49 1/2 hours left.

Enjoy,

Man are we a quiet lot today. I’m a little wary of this, because I know the scum didn’t tell the truth on their dossiers… but I would have thought they wouldn’t have sent out the same killer two night in a row, either.

We’ve definitely had enough time to discuss this (even though we didn’t), and I don’t see any pressing issues that would suggest we shouldn’t cut the day short. It doesn’t look like my push against faith is working today (don’t worry, I’ll try it again toMorrow) So…  
**unvote: faithfool  
start clock on: OAOW**

So with this post, it is one more vote to end the Day instantly, otherwise it ends at 8:45 am Pacific time, 10:45 am central.

He’s playing too aggressively. His campaign against **faithfool** smacks of opportunism and he’s started the clock on **OAOW** when we just agreed that it was counterproductive to do so, especially during the holidays.

You’re just pissy 'cuz the Caps wiped the ice with your Sens.

I’ll take whatever opportunities I have to catch scum, man. Lacking and hard and fast means to catch them, our next best way of catching them is seeing where they make mistakes, and then lynching them. I’m sorry if you want to let faith off the hook because you feel bad that she messed up, but I’m playing to win.

I’d be up for extending things, but as it is, all we’re doing is giving the scum a more convenient time to discuss things at night. I’d much rather have them lose out on a chance to discuss things because they’re sleeping off their New Years’ hangovers than let the town sit around and let the thread sink because we have nothing new to talk about.

Sorry this one is going to have to be kind of quick and dirty. We have a house guest today and I only have a minute to type this up before we all go to breakfast.

ToDays method of lynching is brought to you by the very hotsprings where you found Cookies.

You all have found incontrovertable proof that OAOW is a member of Disgruntled Associates LLP. How could you possibly be wrong. Everything in the dossiers points to him being a silent pig! So you pick him up and hold him under the water. A bubble comes up…then another…then there is a moment of doubt. Drowning provides the time necessary for self reflection. As a murder method this is one of the pluses. It isn’t instant. You let OAOW go…for now. How sure are you about the dossers really?

And the OAOW lets out a gasp, screams “Death to the Sheep”, and runs to the cliff and throws himself over.

This is a rather surpising turn of events. But hey at least one more Silent Pig is dead.

OneAndOnlyWanderers - Disgruntled Associate

is dead.  
This Night gets bonus time and will end on January 2nd

There were two company holidays. Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. This was communicated earlier through appropriate channels. Please do not disregard corporate communications, they contain vital information which needs to be disseminated to all employees.

Enjoy,
