Hockeyguy15, if it's 6-5, even if we lynch a host or scum it's 6-4. A spore conversion would make it 5-5 and we lose.

Not only do we need to find out who is host, we need to find out who is turned to give GGG a chance to prevent that possibility. I do not believe you are host, but as a target for the spore you're a great choice. A strong player who isn't in much trouble of getting lynched. I wanted your thoughts on Squiggs96's newest mistake because I feel it was far more blatant than Dissentowner's which makes more sense to make if he was town, not host.

Squiggs96 had more information than us yesterday, he was right that the host killed SebC (if he's town, great for thinking outside the box and being right about that) but he also knew that Party Elephant, Peanut and Dissentowner were not going to reveal they had the spore because he didn't leave that as a possibility. As a townie I take special note of when going into the day about whether the spore is being revealed, Squiggs96 took it as a foregone conclusion that it wasn't going to be revealed.

Party Elephant and Peanut, being my other 2 suspects for hosts, I could see them talking in the host thread and Squiggs96 seeing all the townies (except Dissentowner) had posted decided it was time to post his 4 possibilities. You "know" no host took the opportunity to vote for anyone but town on the first day. A Party Elephant, Peanut and Squiggs96 combination would be two newbies and a person I do not think has experience being host. They may have played it more cautiously.

Day 1:
Squiggs - ActiveStick (town)
Party Elephant - GirlySports (town)
Peanut - East Coast Flame (town)

All different townies, no connection to one another.

Day 2:
Squiggs96 - GirlySports
Peanut - GirlySports
Party Elephant - Hockeyguy15

Squiggs96 and Peanut were the last votes on GirlySports. They may have been hesitant in removing the spore from the game but decided it was better to blend in with the majority.

Day 3:
Squiggs96: Mrkajz44
Peanut: East Coast Flame
Party Elephant: East Coast Flame

Squiggs96 took every opportunity to announce he tried to save East Coast Flame, tried to tell us that we should look at who East Coast Flame trusted (i.e. a better way of saying looking at who he didn't). East Coast Flame was concerned about the 'townies', Puxlut, SebC, and myself as well as bizaro86 following along. Knowing I am town, knowing SebC was not turned at the time and knowing Puxlut is the Genetic Anomaly (something squiggs96 had made a couple posts saying we should not entirely trust her). Puxlut is an interesting problem for the host. They can't kill her, but they also can't allow the town to have a confirmed town so easily, Squiggs96 has taken opportunities to leech off other people's doubts.

Day 4:
Squiggs96: Starseed
Peanut: Starseed
Party Elephant: Starseed

The only time they voted together. It lead to a tie. Squiggs96 unvoted for mrkajz44 after his death post, and more importantly after Puxlut did the same. It was no risk. If the vote shifts to Starseed, Mrkajz44 is already lined up for the next vote and with Puxlut being the first unvote there is no blame to pass around. From my perspective, no one could have anticipated a tie, but the only day these guys vote together is the day that was most damaging to the town is not a coincidence.

Day 5:
Party Elephant: Devo22
Squiggs96: Party Elephant
Peanut: Oling_Roachinen

Squiggs96 votes for Party Elephant, but not with a ton of commitment in my opinion. The heat is on Squiggs96 so they finally try to separate themselves from one another. Party Elephant "only" votes Devo22 to prevent a tie and puts blame on bizaro86 for his unvote. If they were going to lose the spore, passing blame to Bizaro86 for unvoting is a good consolation prize.

Peanut jumped on me for this post:

But Devo22, Peanut, Squiggs96 and Bizaro86 are probably higher on my list then either.

I think a shift to Devo22 could make for an interesting day.
I say I would prefer Party Elephant over Mrkajz44, Devo22 likely had the spore at the time, and Peanut and Squiggs96 are named. It's the first time that anyone really picks up Squiggs96 battle and she does it by twisting my words. I said I wasn't confident that Squiggs96 was host, at one point, but that doesn't mean he isn't highest on my list.

Day 7:
Peanut: Timbo
Party Elephant: Timbo
Squiggs96: Peanut

Squiggs96, despite Peanut going for me, votes her. The heat has been on him for awhile, I'm not the only person voting for him at this point. It's at a point where they needed to separate themselves but as Squiggs96 points out, it's not going to actually lynch her:

I'm not going to leave my vote as a lame duck on mrkajz, even though I feel the vote for him or Oling is better. I will vote against their choice today.


Vote Count

With 12 alive, it takes 7 votes on any one player to hammer. It takes 4 votes to deadline lynch.

Hasn't Voted (1): starseed

Timbo (5): Oling_Roachinen, dissentowner, Party Elephant, bizaro86, mrkajz
Peanut (4): GGG, Timbo, Hockeyguy15, squiggs96
Party Elephant (2): Puxlut, Peanut

I don't see this going well for Timbo though. Peanut will unvote and put it on Timbo making it 6-4. If Pux and starseed both vote for Peanut, it's a tie. I'm not sure what happens in a 6-6 tie.

What history is this? Squiggs96 may have had an issue with me, but it was nothing of note for me. I tried to piss off everyone and was happy when they did. I have no history with squiggs96 and you know it.
