nmillar: Okay, to clarify for those who seem to have missed it. Vitek was a bodyguard and killed the attacker (Red_Baron) of whoever he defended (unknown), sacrificing himself in the process.

elbaz: Snip...

Robbeasy: Now what appliance could possibly change the size of something......trash COMPACTOR , anyone?

nmillar: Not true. I encouraged people to take more time and investigate other options before going with a quick lynch. Unfortunately this backfired when Popinjay refused to co-operate with those asking questions of him, which made him look like mafia.

GhostQlyph: After this I'm more convinced than ever that Rodzaju is lying and Elbaz is his scumbuddy. Read his defensive post above. I admit I got on nmillar's case, but nmillar isn't pushing an Elbaz lynchwagon from my read, though I did skim a bit so may have missed something. Rodzaju is pushing one though, but he leaves Rodzaju go with a mere head nod. That's not too scummy itself.

elbaz: Looking back through the thread, I see no evidence of you encouraging more debate except with regard to lynching Rodzaju. In fact, your comment that Popinjay's behavior almost assuredly saved Rodzaju (complete with a facepalm for emphasis) hardly seems like a measured argument to avoid moving forward. Before the lynch, you were keen to shift attention away fro Rodzaju to Ghost and Popinjay, alternating between them until Popinjay's own behavior made him the safer bet. As for my other comments regarding you, you haven't replied. And, for the record, it was my read through rather than your vote against me that convinced me to FoS you.

But Robb brings up the clincher. One fourth his normal size and a flattened electric cord. I totally missed that myself. We found one scum, regardless of what anyone says. That's Elbaz, our resident trash compactor.

You'll note that I said prior that Red Baron was trying to be the voice of reason while he was alive. That swung both ways now, I realize. He was being the devil's advocate for the town, delaying a choice between Elbaz and Rodzaju by always picking the opposite one. Right now Elbaz realizes Rodzaju is an easy lynch. He had no idea he was just as easy, because only Robb saw the one important part of the death scene for Vitek and he thought he was safe. But the death scene, combined with his and Rodzaju's poor choice to softclaim early and truthfully, makes for a poor recipe for the mafia.

I still say we lynch Rodzaju first. We know we have one of the (likely) two remaining Mafia. Why not make sure we have the other one?

Therefore: confirm vote.

Rodzaju: So you say you know Elbaz is mafia & suspect I am.
Yet it's me you want to lynch?

Robbeasy: nmillar - you are reading into the death scenes even more than I am, but I do9nt believe for a second you really think Damnation would use them as anything other than flavour, you're too experienced at this. Which begs the question why are you using them? FoS nmillar, for definite. I think you're using them as a convenience to steer people towards your targets, and away from Mafia.

nmillar: Actually, I do believe Damnation would drop hints in his flavour text. If you've spent any time at all in a conversation with Damnation, you'll quickly realise he doesn't do things by the book!

Robbeasy: true actually ....;o)

But still think my read is right this time...

elbaz: I'm keeping my eye on nmiller, but we know that Rodzaju is a third party threat. He must go, not just for my sake. Therefore:

unvote nimller, vote rodzaju

Rodzaju: Hmmm, suspicion on you starts to mount, so you push me to L-1.
Is it Andy's turn to drop the hammer?
