I actually forgot about his mom popping in, that makes the absence make a lot more sense.

Alright, Somber, hold my hand

I'll hold my vote until tomorrow morning (today's late night in USA time) so whoever wants to say a thing can do so, but yeah, I can't really see it any other way either.

I just don't see a town watcher shrugging and giving up in the face of a wrongful execution. Independent of an investigation, there's a decent case for Ixt. If we're wrong, then it's GK.

merk spinning up at the start of the day and trying to preemptively diffuse suspicion on Ixt leads me to obvious conclusions, but we'll see with the flip.

The workers decided to execute Ixtlilton at the behest of Gacha. "This guy is a bad egg," Gacha said, "no question, he's gotta go." And so Ixt was no more.

Ixtlilton, Althur, Fink Who Can't Sleep (mafia-aligned watcher), was executed day 3. :s:

It is now Night 3. Please submit them ASAP! I want to get the game back up today if possible!

I think merk is my top pick too but will wait for any night action results, gacha investigation etc.

I *almost* feel bad for scum, I'm not sure what Ixt was thinking or just thought his watcher statement sounded innocent enough to squeak by.

4. Day 1 Positive Reads -> The Ixt case is fine, but it's the lowest hanging fruit case in the game and not presented persuasively. GK isn't persuading anything to vote with him on this case; yet, he brings it up a couple times throughout the day acting like he is.

The only thing giving me pause is that he is asking us to eliminate him. However, when doing so, he says his 'record isn't that great' which isn't true at all. We haven't seen a flip of anyone he's advocated to vote, and we have seen town flips of people he said he doesn't want to eliminate. That's super weird posturing for a town player to take.

That, and G4G is doing real well this game. Two out of two people he investigated were scum. It'd be fun if he was a paranoid cop and he was just going off his real-person reading skills.

Speaking of which, there should be two reports this time, shouldn't it? George Kansas is still alive too. Come to think of it, nobody died again tonight.

weird posts and it also seems like ixt only shows up when mentioned. i'd vote there tomorrow but I'm not moving off the lotus train today.

Thinking a bit more, I could see GK being scum. That Ixt case is the easiest case in the world to make for scum, and GK diving in on this somber stuff feels fake.

merk posted:

It kind of requires Ixt to be town because I don’t see a reason to bus there.

merk posted:

If gulag is scum, scum here immediately bus, not try to discredit the claim.

If gulag is town, I think those posts you quote are scummy, gacha.

merk posted:

HOWEVER, Ixt isn't really doing any scum hunting, so I don't see how we vote anyone else out unless Ixt decides to, you know, start doing that.

this all reads like merk trying to manage a failing relationship with a scum bud.

I was kind of doubting myself on Ixt because merk didn't bus him but maybe trying to salvage it? I was going to suggest him (Ixt) before he slipped/gacha investigated anyway because he wasn't adding much to the discussion.

Not sure about taste here but he's doing his taste thing, we can cross that bridge later if need be.

Sandwolf had a good point about IA also that I want to look into (maybe his action just revealed to scum which town had night actions?) It's kind of hard to tell without full information of course but something to consider.

Something giving me pause here is that both Merk and Sandwolf claimed the latter watched the former N1 (Merk knowing because Sand is a loud... something), and nothing else happened. For that to be faked shouldn't they both be scum? And in turn that doesn't mesh well with Sand's speculation about IA.

merk: May 20, 2003; ##interact

I'd probably vote me too. That Ixt case sucked. I didn't buy the Ixt case and was wrong.

My read is that scum bussed their lurker buddy early instead of trying to save. Look for the easy bussing on Ixt after I flip vanilla town.

Good luck everyone.

And as much as I like the idea of the flare just revealing town's actions, Ixt did something to minus that we saw in the flare. They said it, they'd have no reason to lie, and they were scum.
