People that probably shouldn't be touched today
- huh what
- Pesco
- UK- Serela
People of interest:
- Zakeri
Reasons are obvious. I was willing to give him slack because I expected him to come back and do something meaningful, and, well. That Day 1 will be a huge black mark on him for the rest of the game. However I'm far more interested in the ramifications of the scum flip so he lucks out by getting put on the back burner for the time being. (Amazing that arguably his worse Day 1 ever DOESN'T end in him getting lynched!) Also there was the fact that Hourai bit on his vote so that's worth a little bit of positive cred in his direction.

Suspicions were bubbling through the later part of yesterday, as I hope could be seen throughout my posts, and then there's the sitting on Serela at a rather critical juncture throughout the end of yesterday. The picking at Serela's role bugs me, too. Why would anyone lie about an independently verifiable role such as his when it's not an inherently anti-town role? What would you have concluded if he did not produce the exact name of the radio you got? Especially when no one called him on talking about "the Pokemon
song" when Hourai had only mentioned Pokemon and said nothing about a song (a statement contained within a post that actually lessened your opinion of his claim, no less). One could point to her giving Conqueror the thumbs-up at the end as points positive but the decision had really been made at that point anyway and there wouldn't have been much she could do to stop it if she wanted to so I wouldn't buy into it.

I still can't recall a single meaningful thing he said without actively going over his posts, and never getting an answer to my question
here rankles me considerably, especially given what the question
is. Hourai's flip makes the reasonless flop over to Serela look ten times worse (unless people want to throw out the idea of Serela/Hourai scumbuddies but I'm not anywhere near convinced that is the case when I don't think it would have been too difficult for scum to get a PX push going instead) because it really DOES look like taking the path of least resistance and further leading a townie toward the gallows because it's simply what's going on at the moment. Looking back through his posts I'm finding almost anything on Serela before the vote - latest pre-vote post that mentions him is
this, which is lackluster. Pesco's DotS endorsement isn't enough for me on this one, nor is Hourai's vote for him because that case never really went anywhere.

This one is fun because I haven't had the time to sit down and go back through his Day 1 properly (will do that very soon) so it's entirely predicated on the dance he did after Conqueror's claim. He broke the 6-all tie by pushing Hourai ahead which would look fantastic if he didn't retract his vote immediately, ask a question about roles and then disappear for the rest of the day. Given the question about the roles, this looks very much like it could have been a public representation of scum chat confusion with an opportunity to lower the odds of Hourai getting the axe presenting itself. Why did you not at least come back and say you still preferred Hourai to Serela, with or without a vote attached, if you had to go somewhere? If you DIDN'T have to go somewhere, why did you clam up entirely, not even acknowledging the answer to your question (never mind bothering to re-address the main issue at hand)?
##Vote: Shadoweh because pressure is good.
On the subject of Bard, since huh what mentioned him, I did notice that both of his major cases yesterday were on people that are on my "shouldn't be touched today" list, but he also swung to Hourai at a fairly important time when he has every opportunity to switch to just about anyone else and didn't, so that earns him some brownie points from me.
