Did EVERYONE get a PM from Gnasty?

Just checking.

Something like this?

So up until now I haven’t really had time to actually take this Phalla seriously. I just went through all the votes, and I noticed a few things. Because we can’t talk in the thread, I figured I would just PM this to everyone.

During round 1, Plutonium was saved at the very end from dying to the vote. Locus tried to tie the vote, and thorgot’s last minute retraction saved him. We should keep this in mind—thorgot could have just been trying to prevent a tie (which is a good thing), but if either Plutonium or thorgot are evil it make it more likely that the other one is as well. This also makes Locus suspicious, because tying the vote really isn’t in the village’s best interest.

During round 2, life3 was killed at the very last minute it seems. Jester313’s vote made it so that life3 died instead of Last Son, while cj iwakura’s vote came pretty late into the round and is what made it possible for the tie to occur. Why would Jester313 choose to tie the vote when he could’ve just voted for Zepplin? Jester313 might be a good target for us, and if he turns out evil we should look into Last Son.

During round 3, Jester313 cast a vote for Last Son. Why would he vote for Last Son when he just saved him last round? Also, why are Buzz Buzz and cj iwakura shaping up to be the two bandwagon targets? Nothing in their voting records strikes me as particularly strange.

Yeah, that. I responded to explain Jester's change-of-heart:

Guys-

I am going to take the blame for Jester's last-minute vote-switch.

What happened is that Jester and I have been going back-and-forth chatting (neither of us knows the other's status) since the start of the game.

I got in late today, scanned the thread, and saw that life3, who voted for me yesterday, was a good target. I also saw I had a couple PMs from others.

So I voted life3 then went to check my PMs.

I had one from Jester. He stated that he believed he accidentally set a tie between Zepplin and (Last Son?) and didn't want to end up in the same Round One prediciment I had ended up in.

In Round one, I had unknowingly created a tie between Plutonium and Katchem_Ash by swapping my vote, which is why jdarksun changed his vote to me.

So Jester asked me who he should change his vote to.
And I suggested he vote like I did, life3. You know, whatever.

So I had voted... and I guess Jester wrote up his vote, and in-between, cj iwakura happened to cast his vote.

That is the only explanation I can give you for Jester's vote, and it is full of truthiness.

I think both cj and Jester went with the safe bet of Life3 simultaneously and neither realized they tied the vote.

I am only sending this message to those who Gnasty cc'd in his PM to me. Any/all of you are welcome to take the extra time and forward it around.

That was sent to:
Gnasty, B:L, Buzz Buzz, cj iwakura, Defunker, Jester313, Plutonium, Squashua, Zerinan

- - - -

B:L believes that Gnasty's PM was a reaction to B:L and Infidel switching votes to Gnasty.
I'm maintaining my vote on Buzz Buzz for now.
I voted for Buzz Buzz b/c he was the first one today to place an actual vote (Defunker voted for himself).

[devoutlyapathetic]

Yea, I got that along with more people around me alphabetically.

[thkwathua]

Looks like people are following Gnasty's lead and Jester is getting nailed.

Well, I did what I could. The guy seemed alright to me.

B:L seemed to appreciate my explanation. It is interesting that I sent my PM to Plutonium and he's chosen to ignore it.

I'll see how Typhus and the others react.
