Well with the current vote count I see 4 options: 1) Saldana - For starting the cronin vote yesterday 2) Bek - For like being mr.ghost in this game 3) bullet - for his inconsistancies and path vote 4) Someone else - likely throw away vote. |

Hrm, well I don't like it, and it seems like it's not entirely his fault (didn't he say he's having computer problems?), but someone who hasn't been able to contribute well into day three needs to go. I'll probably be around for a little while longer, but then it's off to the airport.
Vote Bek.

and now i am in the unenviable position of being a pile on vote, a throwaway vote, or a no vote, either way...i dig my own hole a little deeper.
vote chubby i agree with lathum that he seems to have moments of rookie inexperienced mixed in with flashes of brilliance, which either means he is either better than we expected (he has been on the board for a long time, and easily could have read every WW game in history), or has met up with a vet necro and is getting some help. |

If it seems that I am just sitting in the thread, reading everything and not saying much then that's because it's pretty much exactly what I am doing. I really have no clue at this point beyond a few gut feelings, but seeing as I don't have anything substantive to really back them up, just a vibe I am getting from one or two players, I can't really move on them this early.
I realise that I am one who rather frequently admits to not having a good picture of things, but in this particular game it is even more accurate a statement than usual. |

Regardless of tonight's outcome I've noticed two things; 1. you seem to have a history of voting for an egyptian and 2. people aren't forgetting how you started the run on Cronin. I trust two people right now tho not fully since I have no way to be sure: Barkeep and Coffee Warlord. |

a) thanks for the count b) you're two points are absolutely correct, and i knew yesterday when i started the push that if i was wrong there would be heat for it....that logic of itself should be evidence that i'm an egyptian myself....not saying it should clear me, but it would be pretty dumb for a necro to draw that much attention to himself on day 2....all i can say to these points is the same thing i have said all day....it would be a mistake to lynch me if you are an Egyptian. |

No problem on the count, I was waiting for someone to do one so we'd know the status anyways. I don't really buy your "I pushed to have an Egyptian lynched therefore I must be an egyptian" logic tho. I'm not trying to lynch you... right now... maybe I have too high of a threshold for evidence I don't know. I'm fine with my bek vote and the only person I would consider switching it to is bullet for obvious reasons. I will be taking a harder look at you tomorrow as I won't be forgetting day 2. Having the explorer around could have been a good asset down the road (tho I don't know if that is a sure thing as someone else mentioned). |

Just to throw something out there, seeing as most of the players here seem to think path is not a bad guy (at least not at the moment) would it be useful to deliberatley set up a tie and have path choose between two guys?

I have no information of any alternate victory conditions for myself. I think there are more productive roads to explore.

No, that would be bad I think. I believe he loses his ability to tiebreak if he chooses a good guy. (or maybe thats his duke role.. or maybe thats the same thing). Plus we know he has this ability as the pharoah it was said. What we are debating is the possibility that he is bad or not. not what his abilities are. |

Vote Bulletsponge
I doubt path is evil; he got the artifacts so we can assume he is the pharoah. Eager rook or not, it's just a bad play. I apologize for my lack of involvement, with the migraine yesterday and crap at work today, it's been less than pleasing (try sleeping from 4:30 pm to 4:30 am and still feel crappy)...and I hate my job...anyone connected to the pharmaceutical industry? On the game, still no real outcomes, it was fortuitous that Pass didn't get killed, and in the end getting a ceremonial dagger, I'm betting that hampers further attacks from that assassin. Since it wasn't successful we know that the baddies are still not a cohesive unit so that's good. I'm not all for those who are silent as bad anymore than those who a vocal as bad, but I recall many a prior game in which those who were vocal (squeaky wheel gets the grease) could manuveur the outcomes. That being said, those who are quiet lead themselves to suspicion because no one can get a read on them. I'm entitled to give tangle some latitude due to the time zone and the same goes for Blade and Bek (food poisoning sucks man) but at some point, all is fair in ww (except passing PMs and showing PMs by the starter of the game and talking while dead (guilty)).

For what purpose? I don't see any benefit, only potential harm to the Egyptian side. SnDvls - I have no way of knowing for sure who is good and who is bad besides myself. I can make logical assumptions but I think it's been clear that I don't fully trust you or dubb, while i may trust dubb more there still isn't enough shown for me to trust him more. I fully stand behind the 2 I do trust. I'm not willing to say I trust someone, or thrown someone under a bus until I've seen enough from them. Coming from the person who wouldn't vouch for the person that saved him yesterday, I'd think you would understand that. |

Dola, the bullet vote is just gut feel. Nobody should think that I have any special insight on him. I'm not a fan of voting Bek again because of his being sick, and I don't believe Saldana is bad for once.

That's true didn't consider that. I just thought it might have been a way of getting someone we all relatively trusted to make the call, rather than endlessly speculate about necros moving the votes around etc. that inevitibley happens in WW games. Of course they could have just manuvered to get two guys they wanted gone up, but anyway it's not worth it. |

Just because he is more trusted for me than most people does not mean that I feel he has any more knowledge to who is bad than any of the rest of us. I have not seen any hints from him saying that to be the case. A power like that is better used with knowledge behind it than random stabs in the dark like it would be right now. |

Stupid flights being late.
I believe he doesn't lose tiebreaking ability unless he uses his Duke role and gets an Egyptian. Don't quote me on that though, that's just what I remember from the discussion earlier on the topic.

Ok, looking things over...I don't think a tiebreaker vote is the same as using his Duke power. I also don't think that the Pharaoh can lose his tiebreaker vote unless he is dead. The rules say that the tiebreaker starts with the pharaoh initially, but there is no mention of him losing his tiebreaker vote.

One good thing just popped into mind: Normally at this time in a game we would be down 4 humans. We're only down 2. This is, a good thing, I feel.
