I think we should just get Nikola off. He's obviously avoiding the thread at this point while he's under pressure, scummy to me.

Holy crap, deadline already? I've got about two hours before I have to leave this cafe, so I'll try to get a vote down by then.

ace, why don't you just post that list or whatever you've been promising? Does it really need to wait for Nikola?

Navy, why do you think Nikola is scummy? Lurking under pressure is scummy, I agree, but in your list you put Nikola as 'mafia read,' while you didn't actually say that he was scummy anywhere else in that post. Sure, you had some information (that he avoided reading the thread), but no analysis. I don't know how you can get such a strong read on him with so little information.
Basically, I'm accusing you of knowing too much.

ace, if you don't post that list by the end of today, I will never forgive you. You know that it's deadline, yet you don't post anything of content. Are you still satisfied with your vote on TKaBN? Why or why not?

Scum wouldn't need to read the pages because they know who they want dead.

Basically saying he'd enjoy hammering, but won't vote otherwise. I find that a bit suspicious.

Don't even really get how this works.

And of course, his avoidance of the thread is my main reason. I admit that it isn't a real heavy case, but I feel like it is the best shot we have this close.

That's my reason, too. However, you posted your list on the 27th, and Nikola claimed V/LA on the 25th, so I don't see how you would get 'avoiding the thread' from that.
Vote: NikolaSama.

Nikola is a neutral leaning scummy read to me at the moment, so I have no qualms about lynching him at deadline. If he flips town, though, I suggest everyone keep an eye on Navy tomorrow.

Oh, you were specifically addressing that post. You'll have to excuse me for that mistake, as the post was a response to the entire thread and it must have slipped my mind.
Nikanor wrote:This in particular looks like the push for a deadline apathy lynch on a townie.
I suppose you could see it that way, it isn't worded in the best manner. What I intended with that post was to support my current vote as a candidate for the deadline lynch, and I hope you don't disagree with a sort of "policy lynch" (correct me if I am using that term wrong) the day of the deadline.

I guess it's nice to know your read on him now that deadline his here and he's a pretty easy lynch. :|

*sigh*

Nikanor, if this is a mislynch, I will place the blame for the town loss at your feet.

Vote: NikolaSama


Already stated reasons at the beginning of this day, and they haven't changed.

Individual other reads:

ace5993 - Winner of the most improved award. Today's posting has been very good, and he's moved himself off of the scum list.
Shrinehme - Excellent, excellent posting - it largely makes up for the hole caused by Nikanor today.
NavyCherub - Again, absolutely fantastic. If either he or Shrinehme are scum, I will be absolutely shocked. I attribute much of the game's restarts to their postings.
Nikanor - Would be willing to lynch. Yesterday's play was quite poor, and a good IC would have replaced out long ago. I almost feel as if he is intentionally trying to drag the game down - he's been at cafes and several places to make solid posts, but simply has chosen to cut them in half - probably to hit the deadline. NikolaSama and Nikanor are my best bet for the scumteam right now. Please note that if there is a tomorrow, Nikanor, your play had best improve dramatically, as I will most likely be filing a complaint with the listmod.
Tokillablockingnerd - waiting to hear from the replacement before I decide

Oh, and Shrinehme, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm guessing that you wanted to hear from Dana and Nikola before the rest of us posted because you didn't want to give the lurkers pre-fabricated reads to use against everybody else. It was clearly the right play, and I endorse it 100%.

Ugh. Nevermind, this isn't LYLO, there will definitely be a tomorrow. Still, my reasoning above largely stands.

Actually I was hoping for more content first before I posted a list, my views on Neto, Nika, and TKaBN I have outlined clearly already (although I am moving TKaBN into purgatory until his replacement arrived). Shrine is looking town right now, Navy is neutral, and Niko is leaning scum, although I won't hammer because he has enough votes already. I am unfortunately writing this on the goddamn psp again, but I hope to get access to a computer before night starts :/

Ran out of room to add this last post but Nika is looking more and more like scum with every post he makes. Definitely a lynch possibity for tommorow.

1) Why not today?
2) In your last post you implied that you still thought I was town ('my views on Neto, Nika, and TKaBN I have outlined clearly already'). Why does it change when you post the second part of your post? I see inconsistencies.

Nikanor, I'll go ahead and answer that one for Ace since he's a bit busy: The only reason that I am not pushing for your lynch today is because we simply don't have time to organize a new wagon without no-lynching. You're escaping not due to anybody thinking you're town, but due to the simple fact that we have no time to switch over.

I'd ask that if you don't have time to catch up tomorrow, please replace out.

Escaping? It is no escape to continue to live in this hell, killing each other off in the hopes that we'll get to live another night. No... death, now that's true escape.

I guess I won't mind hammering, but I'm not sure when the exact time of the deadline is... I don't see it listed anywhere. Does anyone else mind? [
Can you keep deadline in vote counts from now on?

Yeah...

If Nikola flips Town, and I die overnight, please please PLEASE look at Nikanor or TKaBN tomorrow. <.<

Shrine: As far as I'm concerned, Nikanor has a ton of explaining to do tomorrow. It will take a lot of convincing for me to not auto-vote him. Absolutely pitiful, really.

NikolaSama is dragged to the gallows, kicking and screaming the whole way. As the trapdoor opens and he drops to his death, the whole Town rejoices.


NikolaSama,
Mafia Goon
, was lynched on Day 2.


It is now
NIGHT
. This thread will be locked until the beginning of Day 3.
All Night choices must be submitted via PM within 72 hours of this post
(NB: any Night replacements will cause an extension of this deadline, regardless of role). If you do not submit a choice in time, I will assume you do not want to use your ability.
You may not communicate with any other player unless your role permits it. You may still PM me at any time.

Apologies everyone, I had an unexpected and involuntary V/LA there. Back now, and on top of things.
Ahem...


Day breaks on this sleepy village for the third time, and the body count is spiralling up. Poor Shrinehme's body lies pinned to her door... and trailed along the town hall steps... and bobbing gently in the fountain. Someone really did a number on her. But who?


Shrinehme,
Townie
, was killed on Night 2.


DAY 3 BEGINS


Current deadline is
31st January
.
With 5 players alive, it takes
3
votes to lynch.
