which would you prefer to lynch today?

good question.

ABC doesn't play much in an unusual way for himself (as you pointed out in your discution with linkz), but his claim had something unsettling in its evasiveness (knowing "someone visited you" is really no info at all) and trucks put his finger on it (contradiction in knowing/notknowing the someone).... this alone better have a real good explanation.

Now ABC did come up with this role on his own, it definitely was not Linkz's masterplan as he hinted to it yesterday already. But I do find link's acceptance really easy.

On your point about linkz setting ABC for an easy lynch day one as manipulable, I do see where it comes from, but it doesn't fit very well with the sudden rebutal of today, unless the hat votes and night discution prompted them to act this way today (as you said early vote / claim / unvote).

I've mostly been parrotting points here, but I believe that the most info would be gained from ABC. The linkz connection was made by linkz, so it binds him to the result. If we were to go for linkz, ABC could just as well be.... himself... However, ABC has hinted at a potentially strong role... so he should die in the night at scum hand (if the effects are random, scum can't really risk it). Keeping him arround to study him is not out of the question in this aspect as we would get info from his living. Moreover, should he survive the night, he would be obligated to divulgate more information... and this even if it's disinformation is something. Linkz has so far not offered much, mostly confusion I would say.

So to sum up, i's hammer either, but i'm still undecided on which to go for.

I won't comment on other players for now... as there is nothing major, well besides one thing.

HoS Trashlegs for either not reading the thread or acting as taught in scum 101, ignore the post that blatantly states you are scum (in scotish in the text) to let it fly by.

Nice catch with his statements there.  I'll wait for his response on this before I actually put a vote out, but for the time being:

HoS: A Bad Clown

So, since you're a person of interest today and thus a person likely not to live long, mind giving us your input on the various suspects that were mentioned?  (ABC), Linkz, Hat, proff, Trash, FF (did I miss any? it should be in order of suspicion voiced, besides yourself :p)

Sure thing, while I'm at it, since my reasonings are here, I might as well put out some more FoS/HoS's if I feel they are needed.

ABC: The catch that trucks made about him changing what happened last night is extremely suspicious to me.  I've already put out an HoS, and am very curious to see how he responds to this.

Leatherhat: He has clearly indicated that he is following along with the game, but has a serious lack of posting.  His last thoughts gave us at least an idea on some of what he was thinking, but I would like if he could do this a little more often so we can hear what he has to say, and it really makes me wonder as to his alignment and if he is simply scared to post as it could give him away.  FoS: Leatherhat. 

Trash: If I recall correctly, trash mentioned she would be able to play more once this week started, yet I have really yet to see that happen (I'm assuming she is still busy, I may be wrong, however).  So I'm not quite sure what to think of her yet, as she really hasn't posted hardly at all.

Linkz: He's still posting quite a bit, but overall, I'm beginning to get more of a vibe that he is simply trying to keep the game going, and this is simply his play style.  He is asking questions where they need to be asked.  This isn't to say that I necessarily feel that he fits better on one side, only that I'm not quite as suspicious due to his high post count.

Prof: I'm still cautious as to the whole vigilante thing, but I have an inkling it might just be prof being prof and coming up with his ideas about certain things.

FF: I haven't really gotten a suspicious vibe for him yet, and reading back through things, there really is nothing that makes me suspicious of him up to this point.

Wow, I'm not going to cut/paste my PM to tell you guys my role

and you can't bother to give us something less than that?

Unvote

Vote: ABC

Well, that would get you modkilled, so good. 

What do you want me to say? I already said the info I got last night said someone had targeted me.

I've fairly certain I've already lost my power for this night, I won't say the name of my role or my characters name until I need to.
