Good luck...let's get one today.

Hi. That's partly correct. I was pretty busy at work today, and then afterward with my toddler. I kind of kept up with what was going on, but I don't think I posted past this morning. Also: for patterns to emerge from the noise, there has to be a long enough record of votes and accusations, which is probably the case now, but wasn't yet last night (in real time). And, yeah, being pretty verbal and tabulating stats last game seemed to just generate more undue suspicion than it helped the rest of the village. It did help me make some sense of things, but I probably won't go through the work again in such a huge thread unless it seems it'll make a difference to everyone.

I had a strong feeling earlier today that Juice was recruited around night 5 or 6, but now that I've glanced through his posts, I'm not nearly as sure. I recalled his having a little tete-a-tete with someone else that sounded staged to me, but I didn't actually find it in his history now - someone help me - am I thinking of another player? I don't mean the JC vs. Dagny lovers' quarrel; it was one I glanced through posted today (Wednesday). I can't help thinking the slugs would be smart to recruit him late, although that alone is hardly convincing evidence against him.

I don't have a really strong suspicion of anyone else right now. I'm tempted to call out J-Whee, but quite honestly, it's mostly because I'd feel really foolish if he were a bad guy two games in a row and beat the rest of us. I'll note, though, that he's been jumping into the middle of the past couple of bandwagons, which is exactly what he did last game as the alpha wolf. That's a bit weak on its own, too.

General notes: Since the sloogs used up all their brain-sloogs, they can no longer change the game. Whoever's a good guy now will be a good guy for the rest of the game. Since there are - what - 15 or so good guys left, it means we have about four more day/night cycles to start catching them before they win. Fewer if the bird picks off villagers.

Not voting just yet. I want to see how the vote plays out tomorrow morning.

its getting late, i need to get up in 5 hours.

mega-nervous about my interview tomorrow morning. at this point, tonight [real time] i'm burnt out.

not changing my salt, JC's been in the middle of everything the entire game it seems like, and I think we've passed up too many chances to go after players that fit our collective bill as the alpha [assuming we're right].

yea, I'm not a slug. I don't think they would recruit a player who is in the middle of everything. But I guess I could be the alpha, if that makes you feel any better.

I'm a villager. I suggest not uber failing.

im suggesting someone from within tho. i feel like we have been uber failing so far, and there are plenty of names we havent even voted for. this version is so much harder cause so many roles change... ugh. wow its amazing how easier it is to type right now lol. umm but seriously our village and our bird have failed miserably. i am suggesting a change of pace. something brand new. and when i say something new i dont mean eat a good role player.. :face:

Im saying lets vote a new name. since everyone has since convinced themselves Canaan and Dagny arent wolves, they are forced to look at PFIDC. i personally dont think PFIDC is anythiung special, and i think we're way off. Personally, if yu guys wanna salt me, i guess i deserve it. ive been like 0-3 on my saltings. oh man.

BUT on the flip side, names like NPV, TROY, Solid, MWB and crayz need some attn. I think my vote is for SS.

Ok, now to blow all of my previous theories to hell...

I realized there were a lot more villagers left, than I thought. So, I decided to look at the list and single out the players that were "flying under the radar", for me.

I did this, because I noticed that all my suspicions fall on heavily active players. They can't ALL be slugs. So, I decided to attack it from the "flying under the radar" angle, since I haven't looked at that yet.

My brain is too tired to think on this anymore tonight, but the results prompted me to at least put them forward. When I finished my list, there were seven names. Magic number.

This list isn't to say that these people haven't posted at all, just that TO ME they're "under the radar", because I've not noticed them enough to forget they were in the game, most of the time.

And in my grogginess, I can't help but think that the key to the whole thing is here^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ and we're just not seeing it.

I got a strong feeling that some slugs got together to start the orchestration of the votes, right after the write up, while most posters are inactive.

along with those names suggested, i feel like Loney is doing a nice job fitting in [if a slug], and malkamaniac and LITT and havent yet received a vote that I can remember of.
