There is no reason to not at least try to switch your vote. If the deadline holds, fine. If not, the possible seer still lives. Not switching makes no sense.

If mods not be around, I would consider it fair game to continue voting. No one has said to stop voting.

PS - My role is George Washington, leader of the colonist army that travels forward in time to help the union army defeat the confederacy. :pop: It is also my job to ensure Abe Lincoln only gets his face on the penny. If he gets the nickle or dime, the union loses. :scared:
With all of that manipulation and control of currency, I'm suspecting that you are actually Alexander Hamilton. :pop:

1. Losing seer bad.
2. We shouldn't vote for claimed seer.
3. If that's a done deal, we can learn something from it.

Not really sure why you're insisting that I, or others, want the seer dead so we can find a red.
To whom is this directed?

Comes down to you or Mac. I thought you came out earlier, but then you said you didn't. Mac did. Better to avoid the possible seer. Or maybe you're both seers, one red and one green.

I don't think so, since I'm pretty sure that at the 7 PM deadline it was 4 for mac and 2 for me.

EPP was a red-ISH seer. Consider that there are two red-ISH factions (Confed and Union) and the VILLAGERS are caught in the middle. That's kinda what I've been assuming, for better or worse...

Reading the above, I'm convinced that redwill is bad.
If he is not killed today, the vig should take care of him tonight.

Dunno ... maybe kill all the reds? That's an interesting concept.

Did you just make up that theory? Because it's so poor, it's lining up for a free welfare cell phone.

At around 11 a.m., Doubleday sent his reserve regiment, the 6th Wisconsin, commanded by Lt. Col. Rufus R. Dawes, north in the direction of Davis's disorganized brigade. The Wisconsin men paused at the fence along the pike and fired, which halted Davis's attack on Cutler's men and caused many of them to seek cover in the unfinished railroad cut. The three regiments charged to the railroad cut, where Davis's men were seeking cover. The majority of the 600-foot cut was too deep to be an effective firing position—as deep as 15 feet.

The men of the three regiments nevertheless faced daunting fire as they charged toward the cut. The 6th Wisconsin's American flag went down at least three times during the charge. When the Union men reached the railroad cut, vicious hand-to-hand and bayonet fighting broke out. They were able to pour enfilading fire from both ends of the cut, and many Confederates considered surrender. Even with a claim to the high ground numerous Confederates were able to escape back to Herr Ridge.

The history books were re-written on that day because amongst the nearly 900 men who died engaging the cut was:

I think what has taken place with the vote deadline was a little unfair for mac. The deadline wasn't announced with the last writeup so it didn't allow mac to defend himself and to allow the village to potentially turn the vote. I think that if a deadline is going to be set from now on, it needs to be announced at the writeup.
