Yes, that's true. I can't tell you how disappointed I was to lose him on Day 1. He was supposed to be my WW-catching ally through the game.

Not I.

I hadn't WWed in quite a while and I won't be WWing for quite a while. I came off of my WW vacation for this game, because it was Fea and she had mentioned it months ago. So, I wanted to stick around for as long as possible so that I would get my money's worth, and I wanted to provide a lot of volume and excitement to make sure Fea got her money's worth.

Yes, that is certainly true, but at the same time this is only my second lynching. That seems odd to me- that I am always eyed nervously and yet not lynched as much as some.

Here are the games, what I started as, and my votes (I think these are right, anyway).

WW 1 (ordo)- No votes in 3 days
WW 2 (WW)- 3 votes (all Day 1) in 4 days
WW 3 (ordo)- 12 votes in 3 days (my first lynch, revenge for WW 2 most likely)
WW 4 (Shirriff)- 2 votes (all Day 2) in 2 days, due to my "lynch a volunteer" plan
WW 9 (Seer)- 1 vote (from a WW) in 2 days
WW 10 (WW)- No votes in 5 days
WW 21 (ordo)- No votes in 2 days
WWJ 9 (ordo)- 1 vote (from the Cobbler) in 4 days
WW 26 (ordo)- 4 votes in 6 days (my second lynch)

So, I have 23 votes in 32 days. Not counting WW 3, I have 11 votes in 29 days. Not counting votes from evil-doers, 9 votes in 29 days.

I have had 22 voteless days. My 23 votes were gathered in 10 days. I have had 7 multi-vote days, resulting in 2 lynches.

So, it seems that I have had five days where I've taken a lot of heat and accumulated votes but wriggled out of being lynched. Also, in 5 games out of 9 I received no votes from innocents. Hmm... what sort of patterns exist? Do I attract more or less votes than most others?

Ah, I just noticed that the votes for me on Day 1 ruined a streak I had going- 13 days without a vote from an innocent or gifted.

Btw, I did consider trying to convince SPM and Mith to edit their posts and thus hand the game to me. What would you have thought had I proposed that, Mith and SPM? Would it have made me look more or less guilty?
