Mantle:
First four posts just asking some questions. Nothing huge.
Talks about the pills thing.
Start of the spurge argument. Spurge said "feeling about a post", mantle appropriately says "what post". I would ask the same, since it could end up as a slip if Spurge doesn't have the post. Spurge not much of a response, mantle fires again. Spurge says mantle twisted his words. Mantle fires again saying, "sure, while you're at it, show me where I twisted your words". Again spurge is evasive, saying "it's somewhere in the last three votes". Mantle pushes again. Spurge escalates to a vote. Mantle posts proof of no word twisting and asks again where the post is. Spurge continues saying it was twisting by saying "you left out the word "felt", yet mantle's point is "which post did you FEEL". Spurge then says mantle went crazy, but it seems more like mantle was pushing suspicion onto spurge, not being defensive. Spurge says mantle is bothering him, but mantle is very much in the right here. Is asked who his suspects are, he gives his town reads instead.
Mantle's townies: Linkz, radish, nen, noctis (Seems to be a pretty good list. Two are actually town, two are unproven)
Mario says mantle phreaked, but he really didn't. Mantle appeared as a townie trying to nail a scum (but might still be scum, who knows?)
Interestingly, nen also says mantle freaked. Mantle says, "why shouldn't I play seriously?"
Mantle questions Mario's scum list, but does say "why sak? He hasn't even posted much"
Linkz asks mantle why he thinks radish is town. Mantle says "mainly his posting style"
Comments in a big post
1. Prof and Linkz argument. Says leaning linkz town, and maybe town prof, or mafia prof.
2. Not happy with noc's participation
3. Spurge acting weird.
4. Nen's posts are neutral (I get the same feeling)
5. People he feels good about, mario for miller (but also points out the claiming drama), wiibox (says nothing much, but posts seem good).
Sak: either play or get replaced. Neutral on SaK. Says looks like genuine abscense and not lurking mafia.
Baalz:Neutral. Hard to read.
FF spurge could be a scum team, the way they act.
Suspects in general: prof, ff, spurge. Neutral: Baalz, nen, sak, stefl, noc. Likes mario, wii, linkz. (seems to be a pretty good list, imo) Some discrepancy of course, though.
Post about FF seeming suspicious continues 3-4 posts.
Gone for a while. Comes back with some questions, though few.
Doesn't like linkz' surety of nen being town "I honestly can't see why such surety". Still thinks linkz is town, but just overconfident town.
Can't see why I think nen is scum. Doesn't think the evidence holds up enough.
Says Baalz vs Mario is interesting. Doesn't see mario being scum
Asks mario what's with the 95% sure (of nen being town). Says nen is not so easy to read, ref; serial killer nen.
Comes back to vote Baalz day 3. Points to the Baalz last second vote of day 2 on stefl. Says it doesn't make sense that linkz would scan men scum yet vote nen, meaning baalz is wrong regarding his analysis.
FoS wiibox for inactivity.
Asks me how I KNOW wiibox is town. Points to my own and Linkz overconfidence. Says it isn't criticism.
Asks nen what he thinks of prof.
unvotes "baalz/wonk". Votes FF, his suspect.
Asks anyone who thinks mario is scum, "why? He's miller"
Says to spurge (who said if FF is town, we need to look at pezus and mantle), What if FF turns scum, will you finally realize that I'm town?
Spurge says mantle only comes in to defend himself and is inactive. Mant retorts that he's really not defending hmself against anything. Points out that spuge is tunnleing on him.
Spurge goes after him some more, mantle points out he's tunneling again. Says spurge has only gone after pezus, mantle, and prof.
After a re-read I really can't see mantle as being scum. I will take all the blame, but nothing about mantle says town. It almost feels like I wasted my time re-reading him. Almost. There were some interesting events that unfolded. Spurge was indeed tunneling, and it does indeed look to me like he's been tunneling three townies the whole game, and also hammered a townie. Doesn't look very good for spry, but at least spry has role claims to fall back on.
Hey spry are you the mustache man?
