There is a third way, that doesn't involve being red.

If you think kraftster isn't red, my other suspicions are with slappy and LITT.

Redwill then switched his vote to mac. Soon after, slappy (switching from redwill) and columbia voted for mac. So what had been a vote in favor of redwill, 4-1, changed to a 4-2 vote in favor of mac just before the 7pm deadline. At least one of those (SDD, columbia, redwill, and slappy) is bad if mac is good.

My assumption is that red will was protected by the reds so we'd waste a day voting for him. I think sloppy, sdd, or Columbia are the best votes.

Kraftster is clearly a role player, but it's not clear of which side; his angel (him?) can't be identified as blue or grey right now.

As Mac said I'm blue. I removed my vote from redwill and haven't voted for a green yet. Slappy and kratster both voted for Mac and redwill.

I've been caught in the midst of a fierce battle and I realize that even a well-placed piece of hard tack in my breast pocket cannot guarantee my life. I can't make out the hue of your uniform, but my death will only further your sorrow.

I thought this too, but that would be a weird red strategy. We were clearly going to kill redwill. Had they let the kill happen, we likely kill a blue the next day anyways. So instead of 2 dead blue, they have 1 after the same time period.

It's not impossible, but it would be a weird strategy.

I get the mac vote thing because it was the seer getting killed, but I think what MWB observed makes way more sense. As the first voter I was just firing something out there because I thought mac had some shoddy reasoning. I don't know that anyone knew that mac was green or anything (how would a red know that?), but he did make a comment as I read back through that made me think that it could partially explain teh switches that took place which MWB pointed out above, I'll go find it.

I wish I could provide you something about last night. I don't want there to be confusion by not addressing this post. I'm just blue.

Vig wastes a bullet, blues waste a day voting for redwill. Sure, likely that we vote out a blue, but maybe someone red had heat on him and this would help slow things down.... and who knows, maybe we would have gotten a red.

Mac checked you the first night, so it's possible you've been recruited.

So you win by lasting until the end, and you can hurt either side if you get killed. Sounds like a win/win scenario for you.

This was the post I mentioned. Reading back through this evening this stood out as something that could make reds thing maybe mac knew who the vig targeted, and who knows, he may have been trying to signal us (village) indirectly.

If one of you kills me, your panic and dread and will rise like canon smoke, as you will see that I have told the truth.

Whoever killed rel, also tried to kill kraftster. It would seem there are two vigs... one killed rel, one attempted on redwill, then someone reloaded and tried to kill kraftster.

Even those that purely seek survival and liberty are well armed.

So you're a vig, or your "partner" is a vig?

The thread of liberty flows in all of us, but truly settles in the few.
