I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.

Other way round. The Lightning rod claim came very quickly, followed by (unrelated) questions about the note.

In order it was 'don't worry about it, could've been lightning rod', 'bif did you get The Message No my message no specifically I sent you a message gently caress where is the message', to 'someone else, maybe the lightning rod, got the msg' to 'nope no lightning rod no siree' and then soag flipped me off with the spreadsheet comment and I claimed my rod. It was better than watching everyone flail miserably and incorrectly over bus drivers and poo poo anyway.

Ok I see it now

However- if we were to give the benefit of the doubt, the lack of action on the note could have spurred the theory of the lightning rod even though we don't have posts about it.

I had a one shot ability that gave you information and you are not using it. Either you received it and are ignoring it and you are scum, or there is a lightning rod who has the information and should disclose it. My ability was successful so somebody has it.

i'm starting to waver a bit on my vote atm, especially as i only voted for busb because i didn't want to vote for coq - because i believed that ken was scum and coq was therefore town. but it's seeming more and more like i'm basing my end vote on a whole series of assumptions that is way too rickety to justify it, given that busb has been pretty helpful and truthful so far.

Kat's claim about the note both being sent to her and about her is what sold it for me. I thought that busb might have been a scum mailman (that can apparently just write messages to others) and was playing it off as an investigation, but if that was the case Mithranderp's name wouldn't have been changed to Kat's in the message.

Question: If no one voted in gladiator circumstances, would it still be considered a draw and therefore a double kill or a failed lynch because the lynch captured no audience?

Like, if a majority of us are convinced that both the candidates are town, is it possible to save them both at all? I know I said I slightly favoured COQ for trusting me, Prior posts were correct in saying that it's a rather weak justification. Perhaps even because I cannot dig up any meaningful justification for one candidate over the other.

I feel like unvoting for now but I've been at work and would feel bad for not making myself clear.

eh, I doubt scum would want to stick their necks out too far for someone who only might be the traitor. They probably wouldn't even know for certain that they had one.

I watched WMB last night - if he was right about being town big he was a pretty tempting target.

Theoretically I should know his killer? I got a no report.

Hey Birdstrike, can you confirm the lightning rod thing from n1? You would have got a loving massive list of people visiting your target. Please don't list them, just say yes / no that it was a result that would match up with a lightning rod.

Even though this paints me in a negative light there are absolutely scum on the Milky lynch.

Result of tonight's flip will decide if I'm definitely sure on ken or not though. Pretty sure Mith is bad too.

kinda suss on Zets now
a bit less suss on Gough, but he should still be remembered I think
Seagull was on the very bottom of my old list, cause he had the weakest D1 evidence. Haven't seen reason to suspect him more, but he could be looked at again if nothing's panning out.
