I am so sorry Not_u.

That's an odd comment. You don't have to have a fit. You've been sort of irrational the whole time, and that's why I feel you aren't helping the game. I can't speak for the others... but if you're scum, and n0t_u is too, you've really broken the game...

**VikingScott**

An interesting remark but he has a point.. There is no real defense. Except if the acuser accidently made a mistake in their understandings or something.

By unforseen consequences I presume you mean you have a town role?

**Arctik_Firangi**

No one really accused him of anything. I voted to try to get him to open up. Instead, he shut down and freaked out. I still don't get it but at this late stage I'm willing to get rid of him.

**Paul Atreides**

Huh, I had expected some form of aknowledgement from... someone, if only to remark on how little sense it made that I first said I was the one contributing least, and the moment afterwards said the ferrett held that title. <sits in corner and feels ignored>

But frankly ferrett, surely you could try to make yourself look clever and useful somehow; I disagree with your cynic view of the Initiall Probing Vote Stage.

**Paul Atreides**

Oh my, just 26 hours until our time is up! I wonder if we'll make it in time.

And on a completely different note, I didn't spell aknowledgement wrong did I? Seriously, could someone tell me how you really spell it?

Or he has a sorcerer power we don't know about?

**VikingScott**

It could be but I've never heard of a power going off when ones dies. But that is a great idea.

One I may have to implement if i do one of these games.

**Paul Atreides**

I know of one (once again that game I followed but didn't participate in) but it was protown: a suicide bomb, you kill one random baddie when you are nightkilled. It could be as simple as that, but anti-town (blow up in the face of one random lyncher), but that's unlikely.

**VikingScott**

Interesting, but i don't see how suide bomb fits with the space wolf theme. Perhaps Lone wolf but thats still an outside chance.
But this smeels of a ploy. A good one though as it's making us think twice.

**Orkeosaurus**

I'm still pretty skeptical of Ferrett being one of the sons (sorcerers?). It seems like if he was one, there would have been a strong defense of him by another player by now. It looks like pretty much everyone else is going along with it, which makes me think he's a wolf.

However, for fear of a no-lynch (which still seems more dangerous at this point), and to fulfill my previous assurance, I will Vote: The Ferrett

**VikingScott**

Actually it would be safer not to defend him as if he got lynched anyway and flipped Son then the defender would be lynched also.

**Paul Atreides**

Quite. Scott, I'm really just curious, why do you not vote for ferrett? Do you think we gain more with him alive? You don't want to bandwagon? Why are you still voting for me, anyway?

**VikingScott**

It because I've seen his behaviour in previous mafia games. I don't really see him as a threat to town right now.

UNVOTE: Paul
It was a random vote for the random stage.

**Paul Atreides**

I can see what you are getting at, but I do however think he's contributing the least.

Beside that Thanks for removing the vote.

With 13 alive it is 7 to lynch.

Deadline Countdown <-- less then a day left

I'm not so sure of this. I suppose this would be the case if there were three sons, but if there were two sons I would consider one of them being lynched on the first turn to be a deathblow. An early lynch of one of two scum pretty much always spells their defeat.

**VikingScott**

Yeah it does. Hmmm But it would seem suspicious to defend zealously. And you haven't actually acused him so there is nothing to defend with.

**Orkeosaurus**

That's true. A defense would have to be fairly covert. (Like mine just now? I'm really starting to hope he's not a son...)

**VikingScott**

Ya, lol

I return my vote for Arctik, because I have to vote for someone so it might as well be the one that didn't really explain their whole master plan thing which apparently helps.
vote: Arctik

No one wants that last vote, trust me.

**Thor665**

n0t_u - please be mindful of editing posts - especially posts with votes in them.

**SagesStone**

Ah sorry. Most of those edits are for the gif as they got dead links.

**Dastardly Dave**

Someone will have to make that last vote - with only 6 hours left of the phase we either lynch ferret or lynch no-one. A vote for Artik does nothing.

If someone doesn't vote for Ferret now, we will not lynch anyone, which would be bad. We have no other evidence to speak of to go on, and The_Ferret has contributed the least. Voting for anyone else is exactly the same as voting no lynch at this point.

**Arctik_Firangi**

Just over six hours remain in this day phase. A failed lynch here would put us back in square one... albeit with a dead townie due to the night-kill.

I wouldn't blame anyone for putting down that last vote. Anyone being anything but decisive at this point is simply setting themselves up for a hard ride tomorrow. This seems like a desperate attempt to stop a lynch... any reason why? Can you tell us why the_ferrett apologised to you?

Why haven't you voted, scott? ferrett?

**VikingScott**

Oh bugger it.

Seeing as there is little time left I'll do it.

Even though this will make me prime target for a lynch if it's wrong

If no one else is willing to get their hands dirty then i will then.

Vote: The_ferret

**Arctik_Firangi**

EDIT: Post removed as it is after final lynch vote... I dunno if that's a rulebreaker, but I've screenshotted it just in case.

**SagesStone**

Ferret and I were the leaders of the 13th Company. My ability is that if he dies I go with him.

**VikingScott**

It kinda reminds me of discworld and Stone-face Vimes. (Sam's ancestor)

**the_ferrett**

Sorry Not_u. If I was a better man I might have been able to turn them around.

Seems aligning to me is a death sentence ><
