Hell, I originally thought (and it's still not a half bad idea) for em to come forward, one time use or not. We're WAY ahead. However, the potential for a fake reveal concerns the hell out of me.

A fair point. So, if the witness was superman, schmidty, or dacman, please come forward, by all means - you three are, to me, cleared beyond any doubt.

What's your take on who to look at, then?I don't have any particular ideas beyond the pool of voters for WVUFan (which, as I've noted before, prominently includes me).

VOTE JEEBERD

Twice voted for known humans, and has been incredibly quiet.

Yeah, I knew my two bad votes would cast some suspicion on me. However, I voted for Blade out of tradition (it's been his job to die first for years now) and I voted for WVUFan because he hadn't said jack shit all thread long. I voted for him before the bandwagon started (I think I was the second person to vote for him), so it's not like I jumped on the bandwagon to save a Death Eater...

Although, considering it'd wind up being a 1 for 1...that might not be a problem either.


At this point in the lead I think we have to take any 1 for 1s, we have a huge lead.

First off, I'm not going to role reveal this game, so take that as you may.

I live in the western part of the village. Yesterday was a typical dark, gray, rainy depressing January day in this area. I was faced with a mountainous stack of work from my job as an analyst for the leading magic supply store. As I shuffled through endless spreadsheets detailing sales of herbs and potions I tried to pop in from time to time in order to keep abreast of the conversation and felt I had a decent handle on it by the time I left work four hours before the deadline.

Traffic sucked, and I got home about a half hour later than usual. Had to go to the gym, by the time I got back and had a bite to eat it was about an hour before the deadline. Talked with my lovely girlfriend for about 45 minutes and got back to the discussion with about 15 minutes to go. There were four pages to go through. So I send the quick message asking for the vote total, because I thought that the bandwagon started on SnDvls really kind of randomly, and had enough faith in what Blade had said to make a tie seem like a decent idea. I scan, VERY quickly the first page or two and have to make a vote. So I go for the tie.

THAT, my friends, is a day in the life of a simple wizard. Do what you will.

Mr Wednesday and path both look VERY supicious, but you would have to think that only a fool of a DE would jump in at the last minute to sway the vote. The person that kind of has my suspicions raised is dubb93. Just the way he flip-flopped left and right makes me wonder what his real motives were. So with that being said...

Right now though I think Jeeber has not voted well day 1 or day 2, and so far on Day 3 seems to be starting a vote on someone that isn't necessarily as far on people's short list any more.

Im not croning, but I would say superman is pretty close to fully trusted. He lynched Sndvls, which I doubt any DE would do.

Dubb almost did the same thing if I recall right, however he did spur the late votes for Mr. Wednesday and Path to jump in, which doesn't clear him but I think helps make him a little more trusted.

No idea what he feels about schmidty or Dacman

SnDvls voted for Superman yesterday. To me, that makes Superman a good wizard.

Schmidty and dubb cast late votes for SnDvls. If we assume that WVUFan is a good wizard (which we actually don't know to be true) then they are cleared.

Dacman cast the second vote on SnDvls, which put pressure on him to defend himself.

King cast the third vote on SnDvls.


dac, king and superman = high level of trust
schmidty and dubb = somewhat high level of trust

How did I not vote well either day? I voted for Blade for the same reason everyone else voted for who they did until Neon came out with his reveal, and by the time Neon revealed what he knew I was out to eat at the Indian restaurant and then went to register (at Bed Bath and Beyond if, ya know, you wanna check out their on-line registry ;) ) for the wedding. By the time I got home it was time for bed. I voted for WVUFan the second day because he had been completely silent, hadn't said a damn word. And as soon as I signed off for work, he posted a minute later (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?t=45965&page=12&pp=50). Talk about bad luck on my part. And once again, I was at work when SunDvls tried to pull his bullshit with the fake talent. I would have seen right through that if I had been on-line, but I was at work. I didn't get home until late and then spent some quality time with the little lady before going to bed. The first chance I had to check in was this morning around 9am Central.

And you know what? I won't be on-line after 430 today. UTEP is playing at SMU tonight and I'll be attending the game. So if there are any more late reveals I won't be able to react to them. Again.

I had a handful of people who I felt voted poorly both days (I actually am in that group too). I was waiting to see how some voted before I threw a vote out at one of them to see if one voted what I felt poorly for a third day. I put my vote on you because I don't think your votes were good (whatever the reasons were) in hindsight the previous two days, and now on day 3 instead of tightening the noose on one of the people in the smaller group that look highly suspicious, you seemed to go out of the circle after someone who seems to have gained a little trust at least.

In all honesty, I probably would have been more ok with you voting for me for day 3 than for one of the people on the "some trust" list.

My vote isnt set in stone, Im looking for reasons to lynch people on my short list, and like I said before I might change depending on what happens with the invisible cloak person, but your vote today puzzles me somewhat.

Is it standard fare for a tie breaker role to exist on the bad guys side too? In the elementals game, when a soldier broke the tie or that role came up, everyone pretty much accepted it as a sign of being good. I was not so sure why that was a sign of good at the time, but as the game went along, I took away this was generally a good guy only role. Plus, in thinking through balance logic, it does not seem right to let the bad guys have a tie breaker for a lynch.

Thats what I was assuming too, and Blade felt very strongly about that. Someone (I think Dacman) posted something earlier that made me start doubting it. Up till now I had assumed tiebreaker = good

I don't believe I've seen a game where the bad guys could break a tie, but it's possible. It would definitely be a major advantage for the deatheaters.

I guess I just don't see how dubb is on the "some trust" list. His constant flip-flopping seems like someone who was just trying to straddle the fence so he wouldn't be noticed one way or the other. When SnDvls got lynched, well, he can say he voted for him. But if WVU had gotten lynched it would have been best for him (if he's a DE) and SnDvls plan would have come to fruition. And I'm still not certain why he was so adamant about wanting a tie...

Is there anything in the HP world that would allow a deatheater to be protected from a viewing? I know someone indicated they thought assassination and that would generally mean no viewing. My problem with that is an assassination took place on Blade and I cannot see that happening again. Unless a good player did it and that just would not make sense.

It makes more sense that a good wizard witnessed and should come forward at some point or the DE was protected from a viewing, in which case a good wizard who tried to watch should still come forward and tell us what they know.

The only way dubb is not to be trusted is if it turns out that WVUFan is, in fact, a death-eater. Otherwise, his vote clears him imo.

I guess this is just my WW inexperince showing through, I don't know. I do know that I made at least one mistake, though. I thought that dubb changed his vote from WVU to SnDvl when SnDvl was already up one vote, but after reading post 748 it looks like he wound up breaking the tie. So for the time being, at least...

Unvote dubb93

I have read all the books several times and to my knowledge there isn't anything to prevent that. The only problem is death eaters traditionaly wear masks to hide their faces, so unless the person who was wearing the cloak recognized the voice that cast the spell we may be SOL.

I call BS, king. First of all, read the situations.

My vote was FOR schmidty, just as I normally do, and then switched to Neon, before his reveal. I wasn't able to get back on a computer until after he revealed his role and the day vote was over.

CW to WVU, well, like others, I believed Sndvls. Near the end, I didn't quite understand what Neon was talking about...but Neon made it crystal clear that sndvls was lieing. I thought about moving my vote near the end, but instead of being a bandwagoner, I thought Sndvls was done for.

How was I to know two votes for WVU and one more for Sndvls would materialize? Heck, I wasn't even in at that point, I was on my way home. I didn't come across this knowledge until this morning.

Read up, king.

I see. TBH, I scrolled to the Saladana resolution post when I got on last night as I got tired of reading the physics of HP teleport theory posts.

Now that my CW-King conspiracy theory apparently hasn't panned out, I agree that whoever switched away from SnDvls at the last minute is highly suspicious. Althought at the same time, in their defense, I feel that I probably would not have switched from CW to SnDvls had I been on to change votes.

I felt that the reward of keeping Neon alive another night outweighed the risks. It looks likely that Neon would have lived another night, even with SnDvls lying about his ability to protect.

I wouldn't have wanted him to waste a scan on SnDvls because if Neon had lived another night, it still wouldn't have cleared SnDvls to me and I think the scan could have been put to better use. It sounds like he probably would have scanned you (not an accusation, just what he said).

Everyone says, oh the SnDvls lie was so obvious, but people have to understand that this lingo is Greek to a lot of people, including me. So Neon saying liar, liar over and over doesn't make it sink in necessarily. Usually, I like to feel comfortable that I know something for sure, especially when deciding someone's fate, rather than relying on the word of someone else.

My BS meter was definitely going off on SnDvls statements, and I probed SnDvls a little on it. It went off further when he hedged on saying what his role was. I still felt like there was the possibility of him just being a bad defender. We've seen it before.

I think we should also look at who laid the groundwork against WVUFan. Anyway, those are my many cents. I'm going to wait until near the end to decide who to vote for unless something obvious occurs.

For whatever its worth, Raiders Army did not vote for Qwik on day 1 and did not vote for SnDvls on day 2, and now this for day 3. He was one of the ones on my short list.
Maybe I missed it, but where is your short list? As stated previously, I was the first to vote for WVUFan and I was willing to change my vote had he come back with something other than I'm reading the thread. As far as what I scanned, he still didn't have anything to say even when his head was on the block. I would think that those who started the bandwagon on WVUFan would be on your short list, not me.

Astronomical and would reflect incredibly poor luck on the part of the death eaters. I'm assuming that WVUFan is human, but I'm also reminding myself that it is just an assumption, that it's not a completely open and shut case.

I posted it I think a page back, my short list for now are people who did not vote for Sndvls yesterday, coupled with people who had odd picks on day one. Probably 6-8 people right now I guess.

I can picture a scenario where they find themselves with two DEs leading the voting and trying to force a tie and hoping no one breaks it. It seems far less likely than WVUFan as a wizard, but you never know.

That would be a good theory, but the hole in it is that the game has a built in tie breaker in the case a player can't break it.

Rules state there in case of no Magical tiebreaker, the person who received their final lynching vote first would be lynched. So that wouldn't have saved Sndvls if that was the case.

OK, here is my theory. sndvls had no Harry Potter expierience that I know of so for him to make up his story he had to do alot of online research or another death eater was PMing him what say to try and wiggle his way out.

What leads me to this theory is sndvls mentions another spell, reparo, which is an actuall spell from the books. The odds that someone who hasn't read the books will come up with this is a long shot at best.

On post #71 Path12 seems excited about the Harry Potter theme which leads me to belive he has read the books. I think it is possible that path12 was feeding lines to sndvls.

Once it seemed to late for sundvls Path12 voted very late for wvufan.

This is all hypothetical, I have no reason whatsoever for thinking WVUFan is another DE.

To me it's a toss-up. Initially, I thought that the wolves wouldn't try a gambit like that so early in the game. Then again, if they have the numbers it would be good to do early in the game as opposed to later in the game.

I think bottom line is that he probably isn't a wolf. It's doubtful that after they got burned on day 1 they would go with a 100% chance of a wolf getting lynched on day 2. Just my two cents.

I was not following anyone specifically. I figured I could maybe see multiple DE's if I hung around, and I did see TWO OF THEM. I followed them, and saw both enter Neon's house. When they came out, they separated and went in two different directions, so I followed the one that was closer to my own house. That's when I stupidly got the hem of the cloak stuck on the bin and had it knocked over. He saw me, attacked me with a Severing Charm and them hit me again. That's all I remember. I did this with the best of intentions -- maybe we could get another today, but I can't remember anything.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obliviator

An Obliviator is, in the Harry Potter novel series by J. K. Rowling, the designation for a Ministry of Magic employee who has the task of modifying the memory of a Muggle after witnessing incidents belonging to the magic world.

They are first called so in the sixth volume, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, although the mentioned practice already appears in the previous novels. The act of memory modification can be used by any wizard, by using the spell, "Obliviate." This event, however, is frowned upon in the wizarding society; most believe that memory modification should be done by Obliviators only.

Examples of times in which a memory charm was committed include when Professor Gilderoy Lockhart attempts to erase the memories of Harry and Ron in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and when Harry's Aunt Marge's mind is modified (although this is never seen first hand) in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Okay. This is the thing I don't get. In order to use it within the game, wouldn't you have to PM saldana and tell him who you want to follow? Even if "obliviate" erases what you could've seen, you would still know who you PMed saldana that you wanted to use this on. I was hoping you would come out with this yourself...

Ardent is a good player. I think a player's skill level has to come into discussion at some point. It is too early to take a chance on a good player when we have several obvious suspects at this point. That is my take on the situation at the moment.

That is either a great point or a great cover-up for a fellow DE. I guess we'll find out which later in the game.

No one pressed him to say anything, and if someone else actually had the cloak it would possibly set him up as a lier. So for now, unless someone else claims otherwise, I have to believe him.

BUT BE WARY OF EVERYONE. Don't just go with my list... go with your guts as well.

In the next post, WVUFan joins the list of Heroes, but I cut it out due to length.

I am using my night view tonight to view dubb93, so in case there someone else that can protect me... kindly do. :) If I die, someone must scan dubb93 immediately. (that, and he's probably the most cunning player in Werewolf that I have EVER, EVER seen)

I hope nobody forgets my words here. I was right on Qwik, and I was right on SnDvls.

If anyone, ANYONE AT ALL is going to replace me if (when?) I die, please check on dubb93 at night to see if he is indeed a good guy so we can confirm 2 good guys in st. cronin and dubb93, and for the wizards during the day, keep on pressing Grammaticus, Alan T, Mr. W, KWhit and Path (people who, despite my obvious pointing out of SnDvls' ridiculous lies chose to blindly go with the "tie the vote and see" direction, when we could have easily killed SnDvls by them just keeping their votes on him (or not voting for WVU) depite their attempts to try and divert attention to other people like TazFTW. Seems like a decent enough strat for who I suspect as DE.

Mr. Wednesday because he has one more vote and the initial vote on path was because there was a bandwagon starting on Mr. Wednesday (on a Wednesday, ironic). dubb cast the initial vote on path just because of the bandwagon...no other reason.

Ok, here is the above-mentioned person who I am suspicious of: Grammaticus.

I think there's like a decent chance that he's clean, but there are a few things about his posts that really bother me.

He CONSTANTLY hammers home the fact that he doesn't understand HP and that he is an inexperienced WW player. Seems like it could be a ploy to look less dangerous, especially if he does something Death-Eaterish.

Also, he defended/tried to take heat off of Sndvls yesterday, when I think it was pretty obvious to most of us that he was a DE. Things like the following quote (among others around the time it was posted) look really, really bad:

We are missing a great opportunity to clear a wizard. Regardless I think Sun will have to accept his fate on this one, unless someone wants to make a tie at the wire.

I might very well be wrong about Gram, and if I am, I apologize; however, something seems very fishy with him.

Why Mr. Wed over Path?

Because Path is a wizard? :p

Seriously, I understand the votes (though I would think that Neon of all people would understand time zone issues before casting stones all over the friggin' place), but guys, you're making a mistake going with me. That's all I can say, I'm sure as hell not gonna grovel.

Mr. Wednesday because he has one more vote and the initial vote on path was because there was a bandwagon starting on Mr. Wednesday (on a Wednesday, ironic). dubb cast the initial vote on path just because of the bandwagon...no other reason. That seemed strange, plus Neon warned us that he's a very shrewd player.

If you think the only reason I voted for Pass was b/c of a bandwagon you haven't been following along very well. Last night at the deadline 2 people came in at the same time and said the same thing. They both voted WVU and tied the game up.

The 2 people were Mr. W and Path. When I got in the thread Mr. W had 3 votes on him and Path 0. It would make no sense to throw a forth vote on Mr. W and let Path fly under the radar. I think they are everyones top suspects.

01-11-2006, 06:11 PM
Ok, here is the above-mentioned person who I am suspicious of: Grammaticus.

I think there's like a decent chance that he's clean, but there are a few things about his posts that really bother me.

He CONSTANTLY hammers home the fact that he doesn't understand HP and that he is an inexperienced WW player. Seems like it could be a ploy to look less dangerous, especially if he does something Death-Eaterish.

Also, he defended/tried to take heat off of Sndvls yesterday, when I think it was pretty obvious to most of us that he was a DE. Things like the following quote (among others around the time it was posted) look really, really bad:



I might very well be wrong about Gram, and if I am, I apologize; however, something seems very fishy with him.
Fair enough, but you are way off. I hardly call ending in a tie, taking the heat off Sun. He is still on the spot as someone may lynch him via tie breaking powers. Also a landslide on someone makes it more likely they do not push too hard to defend themselves.

Now, regardless of what is being dismissed about ties, It was a huge help in the last game. Someone said they thought pushing a wizard to out himself by breaking a tie was using an ability needlessly, an ability that is needed to protect a wizard.

I think and saw in the last game, breaking a tie and showing everyone you were clean was how it protected people. Sure a DE can go after you, but then they have to go for a now worthless wizard versus someone with an ability out there.

Plus I was adament about making sure everyone did not forget that Sun was not cleared with a Neon scan.

Also, in the last game outing roles worked to the best for the good guys, so it is not a terrible strategy, nor one that makes you a baddie.

Poli

I don't know what makes me a better candidate. I've had bad luck, timing and voting. The same can be said for a number of us.

I can say that I've been looking at previous posts of a few people, trying to figure out their affiliation. I haven't got anything solid yet, nothing much more than what others have said. I spend a decent amount of time looking at previous posts. It helps when I have to try and look at 100+ posts at a time. It helps in general for me.

I, like the rest of us, have a trust list and a suspect list.

Trust is you(stcronin, obviously), WVU (I believe him from what he's said), superman.

Don't trust: Mr.W and path. I don't trust kingfc either at this point, since he threw an accusation at me without really even researching it. I don't know about the Warlord either.

It's tough with this game trying to pin someone based on posts. There hasn't really been a lot going on...say, expanding our circle of trust. The last game was awesome in that our role reveals were timely and our circle of trust enabled us to root out the demons.

It's going to be difficult without Neon. I almost wish he held onto his knowledge for later. It would have been nice to get a few more scans in. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we got qwik and sndvls. It would be nice to have a few more cleared people though, ala hoops last week and the last game. He really had me thinking about the seer role.

I kind of screwed that up a few games ago when I had hoops. I shouldn't have tried to hide my role (with a fake reveal) of seer and just told everyone who I scanned and who was in the clear. I really screwed the game up for us.

Anyway, I'm rambling and Lost is on.

Neon was right about you.

Yes, I think you could've possibly avoided the Mr. Wednesday bandwagon for a devious reason. Do I think you actually did? Not really. But it was enough to push me towards Wednesday. What you posted earlier about just wanting to make sure that path doesn't fly under the radar makes sense. I'll leave my vote as is.

But talk about slippery slope. You just pushed me down it. If Path is a DE, then I am. Just because I'm trying to "save" him. I'm not trying to save him at all. I'm just trying to lynch Mr. Wednesday.

I didn't really get that impression, and I am not really interested in believing someone says, "I'm the Duke". The real Duke would be a fool to come forward, as that would put an automatic target on his head by the DEs. It seems like it would be a stupid move.

My take on him is that:

#2: He was on the hot seat yesterday somewhat, but now it seems as if he's an angel.
#3: (not applicable to anyone but me) I was on his "short list" (which wasn't a short list, IMHO, 6-8 people aren't short) for voting for WVUFan yesterday. I voted for him first. I didn't start the bandwagon nor was I a late vote.

It's like once the Wednesday/path thing went down, he was content to let them fight it out. He seems very fishy to me.

But....#1 could be taken away by saying Wednesday was on Neon's list. I don't feel good about lynching Wednesday or path at this point, so I'm going with my gut here: Alan T.

Well, I think you're not including yourself on that all-time best bad guy list. :D

But I agree. The problem is that he did his reveal somewhat "late" in the lynching cycle. If someone else is the real bodyguard, then they may not log on to dispute his claim. I think within the next 24 hours we'll know if someone calls him out on it.

If I was a DE I could have easily changed my vote at the last second and Sun would have came up clean. Keep in mind it was only a 1 vote margin. I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt based on your actions yesterday but you are making it hard to do so.

I have never actually "accused" of definitely being a DE, drama queen. ;)

All I've done is look up a few (like 4) people that struck me as suspicious, and I've only tabbed two (non-Mr. Wed and path) as being "fishy". As an aside, I said that you would only look fishy if my my small suspicion of Jesse was true, so stop getting your panties in a bunch.

Good enough for me at this point. I'm not particularly sold on Mr. Wednesday anymore. I have concern for path and jeeber..but I really need to do more homework on jeeber.

Btw, congrats, Warlord. Win an election, will ya?

Vote Alan T

Schmidty

My gut (and my recent "investigation" of him), tells me that I shouldn't vote for who he votes for. I'll go with the guys votes who I trust:

UNVOTE PATH 12

VOTE JEEBERD

I'm not forgeting Grammaticus though.

Fixing this:

UNVOTE PATH 12

VOTE JEEBERD

Okay. I'm out for the night. I'm going to leave my vote for Alan T as is, since it seems as if the tide is turning that way. I hope that's the right decision.

That should say

"I have never actually "accused" anyone of definitely being a DE, drama queen. ;)".

Also, I just think it's funny that the person who accused me of not helping and hurting the villagers (which I was and am) in the last WW game I played in, is being semi-angrily defensive when I mention his name, but never actually say that I think he's a DE. I actually have time for this game, and am trying to help us (Wizards) win by actually trying to sort through the evidence and making observations about people. I would have thought you'd approve of that Dubb. What's up?

I'm not getting angry, defensive yes. I'm trying to protect myself since I know I'm good and attempting to get my point across. Gramm never came out and said he was the duke untill later. He asked questions about how to use the role without acting like he was actually the duke, much as I did when I first started playing the game.

I began to get curious and figured everyone was experienced enough to notice what he was doing. At that point I asked him if he was planning on using his power.

At his point it becomes fishy. I believe he was being honest and had no clue what the best play for his role was. If he was an experienced player I would say he could be lieing, but as is I'm inclined to believe him. I'm just getting my point across much as you are.

You then get a hair brained idea about me and him getting together and making up the duke role for him. So I came I got my point across that that was probably the dumbest theory I've ever heard of. If he is bad he simply saw he got my attention when I tried to finger his role and he ran with it.

You're being so emotional. I'm just calling it the way I see it. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but at least I'm putting forth the full effort my genius mind can muster.

As far as my musings in this game being the dumbest theory you've ever heard of, you've obviously never heard of the Flat Earth Society. ;)

I should update my signature, though. ;)

I've seldom survived to the end of villager victories, although to an extent that's the nature of these games. One that I do remember is the X-Com game, where the good guys won more in spite of me than because of me.

I make a three-way tie between me, path12, and Alan T right now, with Jeebs trailing at four votes. If no votes come in, I will break the tie by switching to Alan because I believe I lose the tiebreaker.

This worries me a little bit, though I think I'm on the right track here.

Of course, if Alan turns out to be a normal wizard, my head will still be on the block tomorrow, but there you are... maybe I can actually do something useful other than bringing suspicion on myself... :(

For the second night in a row, it comes down to the last second, but this time amongst three of you. The rattling breath of the Dementor is the only sound in the room as Mr. Wednesdaychanges his vote at the Zero hour to save his own soul. AlanT barely says a word as the Dementor approaches. He almost doesn't seem to realize what is about to happen to him. The hood falls back and the Kiss is delivered without any sound of protest from AlanT.

The crowd of you rush over as soon as the Dementor moves away and anxiously tear the sleeve off Alan's robes. Everyone stops dead in their tracks as they realize there is nothing there. Frenzied now, you tear off the other sleeve, hoping for some reason the mark is on the right arm instead. But again, there is nothing there. The rush of satisfaction from the previous two nights is today replaced by confusion, suspicion, and despair as you realize that AlanT was a Wizard.

You all move off from the pub and head to Alan's rooms...a search of his closets yield jars of disgusting looking creatures, powders, and pieces of dead animals. The final piece of the puzzle comes from the basement, where a large bubbling cauldron sits upon a bright blue flame. AlanT was the Potions Master


final Day 2 votes:

AlanT - (7) Passacaglia, Coffee Warlord, Raiders Army, RPI-Fan, Dubb93, Ardent Enthusiast, Mr. Wednesday

Mr. W. - (6) Dacman, coder, Path12, WVUFan, TazFTW, Desnudo

Path12 - (5) Grammaticus, Lathum, JeeberD, KingFC22, Jesse_Ewiak

JeeberD - (4) AlanT, St Cronin, Superman=#54, Schmidty

Ah, true. Wasn't thinking of that; however, aren't there theories that although Snape "did something bad" (spoiler-protection), he might have done that thing to that person as a promise?

I tend to think he did indeed do that as a promise, honestly.

But neither here nor there at this point. I WOULD like to know just what the hell a potions master does/did in this game, though.

I'm starting to get the feeling that we're 1/3 of the way to spending three days chasing ghosts.

The way this lynch played out, at least two of the three people up for vote were wizards (myself and Alan T). I don't know about path12, but he wasn't in immediate danger at the time of the big swing to Alan, which makes me think that the ringleaders of the swing were most likely doing it out of good intentions.

If I don't wrapped up in defending myself tomorrow, maybe I'll try to dig into the rest of the suspect list -- I think people who did not change their vote today (or cast a single late vote) should get some particular attention.
