Day 2 votes in correct order… I’m not sure there’s much to be gleaned from day 2, for when **Cookies** revealed the killer’s trait, a **OAOW** lynch was inevitable. However, I thought I’d list the pre-revelation vote count: brewha (2): shadowfacts, Hockey Monkey faithfool (2): Diomedes, Pleonast Diomedes (1): faithfool Here’s the end of day vote count: OAOW (10): Hal, Hawkeyeop, sachertorte, shadowfacts, freudian slit, Kat, Hockey Monkey, faithfool, Diomedes, OAOW Diomedes (1): Rysto No Vote (5): brewha, Hazel, zuma, story, Pleonast The only things to note were that **Pleonast** placed the 5th vote on **OAOW** , then unvoted because he said he didn’t want to end the day early. **Diomedes** placed the 9th vote (I think we’ve discussed that one), and **OAOW** self-hammered the 10th vote to end the day instantly. **Rysto** said he placed his vote on **Diomedes** because of **Diomedes’s** 9th vote. ---

Aargh. Well, **NAF** missed your vote too 🙂 OK, Final and I think correct **day 1** vote counts, in the correct order: Mhaye (10): OAOW, zuma, brewha, freudian slit, Diomedes, Hawkeyeop, Kat, Cookies, Pleonast, Hockey Monkey zuma (4): sachertorte, Mhaye, Hal Briston, HazelNutCoffee Diomedes (1): storyteller Hal(1): faithfool brewha (1): shadowfacts No Vote (1): Rysto ---

**Day 3** vote counts: (This was the no-lynch day - Brewha was 1 vote short of majority) brewha (7): sach, Hockey Monkey, Hawkeyeop, fruedian slit, Rysto, Hal, Pleonast faithfool (2): Diomedes, zuma Diomedes (2): faithfool, kat Hawkeyeop(1): Brewha No Vote (2): HazelNutCoffee, storyteller > [@NAF](#): > > (faithfool had voted for brewha also, but I didn’t see it so it didn’t count. Sorry folks.) I didn’t see **faithfool** vote for **brewha** anywhere on day 3. ---

**Day 4** vote counts in the correct order: Here was the state of voting before **story** laid out his case against **Fruedian Slit** if anyone is interested: brewha (6): Hockey Monkey, freudian slit, hawkeyeop, sachertorte, Diomedes, faithfool faithfool (2): Pleonast, zuma Diomedes (1): HazelNutCoffee Not yet voted: Rysto, storyteller, brewha, Hal And the **final vote count** in the correct order: Freudian Slit (8): storyteller, brewha, zuma, Diomedes, sachertorte, rysto, hawkeyeop, faithfool brewha (3): Hockey Monkey, Freudian Slit, Pleonast Diomedes (2): HazelNutCoffee, Hal ---

Based on an incomplete so far reread, I will most likely place a vote tnmmorow on Hawkeye, Pleonast, faithfool. or Rystn. Voting history will play a part, along with other issues. ---

I also have issues with the shady accounting department in this company. I think toeays postr will influence my vote a lot. ---

I’ve been stupid busy at work all this week. I don’t have much time to post, but I have been reading. Right now, I’ve comfortable with a vote for either **HockeyMonkey** or **Pleonast** based on their attempts to disuade the **Fruedian Slit** vote yesterday. I will be voting for one of them later today - hopefully after more research if I get time. ---

Hawk, I have been more than fair. I was simply putting all votes out there in context. I had no problem with dios vote. if i did I would have challenged hhm on it… ---

[QUOTE=zuma] I would like tn hear from hawk what he thinks of the voting of the part two days. I would also like to hear anything, other than a drive by vote from Rysto. [/QUOTE] The past two days? I don’t think we can tell anything from the Brewha voting without knowing if Brewha was scum or not. I analysed the last days’ voting already in a previous post already. My stated conclusion was I found Faithfool’s and Hal Briston’s votes as most suspicious. ---

Thanks Hawk. I agree with your thoughts on the faith vote. that is why i put her on my suspect list. ---

[QUOTE=NAF1138] Day 3 7 - brewha (sach, HockeyMonkey, Hawkeyeop, Freudian Slit, Rysto, Hal Briston, Pleo) 2 - Diomedes (faithfool, kat) 2 - faithfool (zuma, Dio) 1 - Hawkeyeop (brewha) (faithfool had voted for brewha also, but I didn’t see it so it didn’t count. Sorry folks.) … The one count mistake I know made I placed as a note under the count for the day. Yes, brewha is lucky to be alive. [/QUOTE] To whom it may concern. The memorandum above has undergone post-issuance review by management. The areas addressing an error on the accounting for a vote by **faithfool** have been scrutinized, and the following position reached. No vote for **brewha** was cast by **faithfool** during Day 3. As a result, no majority, as required for a lynch, was reached during the Day. To the best of our knowledge, no one who should have been lynched has been left unlynched, and no one who should not have been lynched was lynched. Enjoy, Steven ---

When does the Day end again? Sorry, I’m really bad at keeping track of dates and times. I’ll be able to post more after tomorrow evening. It’s just that from Monday-Thursday I’m teaching over a full-time workload, so after being on my feet for hours and grading papers that would make Strunk writhe in his grave, I’m usually burned out once I come home. ---
