That's part of the point, yes. I'm beginning to wonder if you haven't been "forcibly constrained".

And what's wrong with my analyses? You know, this happens every time; I exert myself and immediately get suspected for it. It's depressing.

As if anyone could do that to the phantom.

Mainly that your feelings aren't always matching up with mine.

I know that's an unfair gripe, but that's what helps keep you on my lynch list- I don't mind getting rid of someone so much if they don't seem to be headed the same way as me.

Not that I'm trying to send the mob your way right now. I'd much rather see a continuation of the Lommy versus Agan battle. Or it would also be fine to see Roa lynched since the EW might have given her "get TP lynched so we don't have to waste a kill/scry on him" instructions. So don't get too nervous. I am willing to lynch you. That does not mean you are my target of choice.

And at any rate, at this point in the game very slight suspicion is sort of the best we have to go on. After all, we haven't caught a baddie yet. Once we do I believe we can start coming to some harder conclusions.

I can't even think straight now, anyway. The fact that I didn't fall asleep until 5 AM is really starting to catch up to me. Two hours of sleep has a way of making a guy feel very dull-witted. Perhaps I should take a nap.

I am here, and about halfway through my re-read.

I do have something I would like to comment on now. It may be discussed further along, but I don't remember it being so. Either way, I'm commenting! :P

#241 - Diamond asks phantom why he didn't vote yesterDay.

#244 - phantom in reply to the question, asks a question. A valid point, however he doesn't answer Diamond.

#248 -

And then the end arrived, and I was wondering if the late Agan bandwagon would charge all the way to the front to tie with Nerwen and I, and so I was deciding who I should vote for out of those two. Like I said I thought that there had to be something going on with with Lommy and Agan and was thinking that I might want to vote that way just to see if anything turned up. Ner went ahead and I felt slightly safer but still felt like I might have to choose between the two, and next thing you know Nog posted.

I actually had my vote typed out and everything (it was for Nerwen but I had Agan's name ready to paste just in case) and was ready to post it in the final seconds, but when I refreshed my other window I saw that Nog had already posted so I figured I wouldn't bother.


phantom elaborates a little more, though it seems he only did so because in #243 Ka had given a possible speculation as to why he (phantom) had not voted.

I don't buy phantom's reasoning as to why he didn't vote. The reason itself is plausible - though coupled with the happenings before deadline yesterDay and his avoiding Diamond's question until a few posts later - is quite suspicious.

From yesterDay -

#216 @ 350pm PDT - phantom does a vote tally.
#219 @ 352pm PDT - He asks who hasn't voted yet.
#237 @ 400pm PDT - Another vote tally. (Last post before Nog's)


The last 13 votes had not been for phantom, I can understand his concern in being lynched - because no one ever really wants to be.. save for maybe a Cobbler. Yet it just doesn't quite fit. The last minutes of yesterDay seemed to be more of a decision between Agan and Nerwen. With Nerwen clearly leading for the last ten minutes or so of the Day.


X'd with Phantom, Mac, and Kath.
