Vodean. I hate to point this out, but hippo is voting Shield not Lovo.

By suggesting that it would be scummy to try and get Shield lynched for submarining (I always knew it to be called active lurking), it discourages other players from trying it, so as to not incur your suspicion. This perceived and subtle attempt to discourage a lynch of Shield requires some sort of motive. The fact also that you questioned the use of the two votes of pressure is interesting. Iron Butterfly's reaction is interesting too as he unvoted presumably due to your accusation that it was a bit quick. This could be because he is heightened in his desire not to incur any suspicion, however insignificant, which is not stereotypically the behaviour of an innocent townie. These are just idle thoughts though.

I'll vote MeDeFe for having a colourful avatar.

vote count is currently (VOTE COUNT 1.1):
Vote Count 1.1
Shield - 2 (IB, hippo)
Lovo - 1 (neb)

Not voting - 6
With 9 alive it takes 5 to lynch

Unvote ... don't wanna get mod killed for no good reason!

Someone it appears is definitely not allowed to be talking today...
And i confirmed when I got my role pm...well it was sent to me when I was asleep...but you get the idea

for example the still asleep guy probably can't post anything in the thread, so by having everybody post here we can probably quickly identify who he is.

also i'm pretty concerned about the large contingent that mafia supposedly sent. from what i know in 9 player games we have 2-3 anti town roles (either mafia or serial killers, cult leaders or a combination of all those).
now is it possible we might have more than that? or am i reading too much into this?

anything is possible, but / did approve the balance.

i didn't say anything about imbalance i was merely speculating on the scene.
i suppose balance can be achieved even with 4 mafia, perhaps by having one of them suspiciously sleeping and with a "hiding guns all night" accusation right in the text. i'm thinking that might be too obvious and too easy but maybe that's just what you're counting on. having something in plain sight and seeing people dismissing it just because it is in plain sight

anyway, could everybody post here as soon as possible just to see if you're awake.
this should give us whoever's still sleeping.

then again the sleeping guy might very well be a townie that's been drugged by the mafia.

I'm sure you mean well DiM but frankly not sure if anything you've said helps.

We've all posted. There's no-one still sleeping.

What is it that you say is being hidden in plain sight? You perhaps?

Seems logical to me so ... Vote DiM

not really.
we have 2 people that did not post.

1.shieldgenerator7
2.crazymilkshake5

from what i know shield is missing completely as he hasn't logged in the last 4 days.
but crazy has logged in even today and still no post from him since the day started.

so FOS hippo8 for skimming on the activity check and also FOS CMS5 for not posting and probably being the sleeping gun handler

Yah, Shield is absent. We all know that. My post about everyone posting OBVIOUSLY didn't include him - do you really think I can't remember my own posts! Lol! I've treated Shield as a non-entity but ye, technically you are right.

As to crazy milkshakes - you missed ...

CMS, jerkface, has been modkilled.

... so why Fos me or him? Duh!

read again young hippo. yes he confirmed and yes he posted but since the day started and the scene talked about the sleeping guy, CMS5 hasn't said a single thing, hence he's the sleeping guy.

and the fact that you keep defending him and refusing to see plain facts makes me think something is fishy.
if CMS5 is indeed sleeping and he was presumably hiding his weapons then what's your incentive for trying to cover him?

Oh ... oops .. that bat must be me! Lol!

You are quite right, I missed that point entirely.

unvote

And since we are obviously past the jokevote stage I agree we should at least pressure CMS5. Let's hear it big boy ... vote CMS5!

My usualy flip-flop ... sigh!

I'm not the sleeping man. obviously because im a woman.... no.... not really, shield was probably the sleeping man because:

If he is going to be inactive I want to know before its to late.

then:

judging by the scene, this says shield is mafia or some kind of SK, Vote shield.

I just want to draw everyone's attention to the following:

10. Day scenes I write will be fun and comical, don’t read too far into them. No clues or game information will be hidden in the text.

So maybe there's a weapon, and maybe someone has a PR for the first day. Or maybe it's just a joke or fluff.

Seriously, Vodean, please consider replacing SG7 sooner rather than later. I feel like everyone is hesitant to post anything, because we are all waiting for SG7 to at least confirm.

yup. sorry. i keep meaning to do it, but always forget. i will look for a replacement player. if there are no posts from SG7 by the time i find one, he will be replaced.

I think its safe to say then that we are looking too much into the day scene then....

yep. i actually thought i was onto something
i guess we just wait till shield's situation is solved, right?

I agree ... back to the drawing board ... unvote

thechuck51 replaces SG7.

Confirm

At least there wasn't a whole lot to read but from what i've seen i am going to vote hippo. His 6 posts over the last 2 1/2 pages have contained votes for 3 different people. That kinda vote hopping is a bit much even for hippo.

How do you undo what's been done? you can't.

It all comes down to the essence of done-ness, it's not done until its done and even when it's done it may not be done or could be undone and then it wasn't done at all!
