    Sorry about the misspelling.

    That is not sound logic. There is at most, what, three warlocks at any given time (assuming worst case lover w/ warlock faction)? Most likely there is two. There just isn't any voting power there, unless they have been soulstealing and have zombies.

    Simple risk assessment; it would be more dangerous for the thrall to vote with the warlock. If anything, the thrall would have voted to lynch the warlock to blend in. Or change their vote at the end to blend in.

    Or you were planning on doing this once it became clear Ollie was going to be lynched but the lynch happened before you had the chance.

    Unless one of us was paying attention we don't know, and can't take your word on, when you had opportunities to change your vote beyond your last post before the lynch.

    Sorry, but I can't remember why this would be the case. How would witches know she isn't the priest?

    Putting a deadline vote in for tad, as he seems to be the best candidate for thrall.

    I still think we should desperado lynch Ollie. Regardless who he targets, that just gives him and his thrall a better chance of surviving until end game. Why so much focus on Thrall? Just Desperado lynch Ollie and we are done with that. Unless we think the Desperado has died already?

    Because Ollie can soul steal... And if he does then we can't kill him.

    Also, I guess i'll put my vote in for Tad

    Lynch Vote: Tad

    What the hell are you doing?

    Why are you so scared of the Thrall? We should be worried about the Warlock.

    I reiterate: Wait until the 28 hours for a soul steal are up or he fails one and then Desperado Lynch him.

    We shouldn't lynch Tad until we know whether this would work.

    ....We're lynching the thrall.

    We're not scared of the thrall, we're scared of what the thrall living means for us.
    The Warlocke is the main goal.

    What makes you think we can't do that without getting a few votes on the thrall? Besides he has a soul steal for today.

    Really? I was never sure whether or not it was a legit soul steal. Maybe Ollie will feel the same way.

    What do you mean? I just meant that if he wants a for sure soul steal, there are a few people who claimed their roles.

    This post is only to mention the mystery of jwlk's usertitle. How is it that he has only 4 more posts than jas, yet jas is a 2nd year while jwlk is a 5th year? SO CONFUSED.

    Heh. Think it has something to do with me playing a lot of mafia before hand... And it used to count towards post count.

    Now it doesn't, so they took away posts, but maybe my title stayed? No idea.

    I guess they were just very long posts. <_<

    Also, yeah, I think we need to get the Thrall asap. If Ollie doesn't soulsteal or messes it up, then it's different, but until then the thrall is a useful lynch so we can gank Ollie as soon as he slips up.

    That doesn't make sense either, because then Vira would be higher than a 2nd year...she lost all of her posts too, yet her usertitle reverted.

    Anyway, enough with me being off topic....but WTF. I am so confused.

    I had rather not spell it out for you, because if you haven't realized why, it is possible that they haven't either. (Though I really doubt that.)

    Just try and read the thread again, you will know why.

    I still do not know why we even have to bother dealing with the Thrall at this stage. It is pretty simple:

    1) SS attempt succeeds - cannot lynch Ollie regardless.

    2) SS fails - we desperado lynch him and move on.

    Neither outcome really requires a Thrall lynch. Now I know it would be more beneficial to us to lynch the Thrall but I do not believe lynching the Thrall is of any higher priority to lynching the witches. With all our focus on the Thrall, the witches could easily slip under our radar. This is probably the reason the witches did not use the enchantress SK to eliminate the Warlock since it is more important for us as town to be rid of him than for them to dispose of him wasting a NK they could use to whittle down our town numbers.

    ---------- Post automerged at 23:16 ---------- Previous post was at 23:15 ----------

    Also, will either Mod be on/able to tell us when the allotted SS time is passed?

    Since so much discussion about the Thrall is based upon whether an SS attempt is made and is successful it would be handy to know whether or not Ollie simply declines to attempt an SS.

    Wait the 20something hours if you must, but the Warlock must die today.

    Which is why I do not want to have a lynch happen prematurely otherwise the Desperado loses his ability to override the lynch and kill the Warlock. However, since the Warlock has 28 hours to make his SS attempt, we do not want to risk the Desperado wasting his ability and life in a futile attempt to kill the Warlock is a successful SS happens.

    I thought the Warlock already attempted to Soulsteal Jon, or was it considered yesterday?

    Can a mod clarify?

    It was edited into yesterday's night declaration, so I'm pretty sure it's considered yesterday.
