Well, looks like I'm fucked. Call this a defeatist attitude, but when I'm at -1 to hammer, and no one seems willing to change their vote on me, well, what am I suppose to say? Be naive and think I have a chance to change the opinions of 7 other people?
Anyway, first thing, I want to get one thing cleared:
Bard, your second vote. Is this going to last the rest of the day or the entire game? If only the former, that answers my second question. If the latter...
Does jumping on other trains lead to MORE votes?
I kind of doubt the latter given...well, you could just rack up so many votes that by LYLO, if you last that long, nothing else matters but your lone vote. In any event, knowing how this works would be a good way to gauge how you should(n't) use it.
Ok, mechanics stuff aside...
I might as well role claim. I would have done this a while back...except the Role Claim doesn't really do much for me since it doesn't say a fuck ton about me.
I am Major Victory. I have no real clue who he is, though, reading my flavor text, something like I was protecting the country from Communists, then my entire platoon died out, and I was labeled a traitor, and now I want to get back at them.
And due to being on the enemy side at one point, apparently, I'm a miller as well.
Yeah, as you can see, this role claim...doesn't say a lot; I'm basically a Vanilla Townie that flips scum. Lovely, isn't it?
Anyway, might as well say a few things on people. Why? Cause even though I'm dead, you can look over what I said about people after I flip and hopefully get insight now that my role will be confirmed.
I've said my word on Andrew. I am not changing that, and I stick to what I said.
For others...
Shale...we all know what's going on with him. He's lurking, no questions asked. If he really can't play, I feel by now he would have been modkilled or replaced. Again, I'm not really adding anything here.
Elfboy strikes me as a bit odd on hindsight. He says Shale came to his defense adequately, when...to most people, they didn't seem to believe that, and it was only after I defended Shale that people stopped looking at him, and only once he wasn't posting that people started looking at him. He was quick to dismiss my case against Ciato, which apparently, Rat thought was legit. In fact, I am not really seeing him saying much at all in his last few posts since he became active.
He tossed a vote on me early, then never really went back to it, and kept on it the entire time with barely an explanation.
Excal sticks out to me! Why? Cause after last night, he said he promises us some stuff on Andrew...
Well, I was waiting for something like that and...the most we got was him just replying to why Andrew's promise was not good. I smell some hypocricy here.
Cor has been aggressive, but I don't see this being one way or another. He seems to be attacking minor issues, which does strike me as off.
Ashe won't stop whining about my post size. Her latest actions make me feel really uncomfortable. Again, Cor's claiming I didn't go back and do things I promised was clearly an embellishment, then she goes and BRINGS IT UP LONG AFTER ITS BEEN SAID AND DONE. She acts like its this big revelation that's a huge massive scumtell when in fact, it was noted that I actually did go back and do what I said, despite Cor's claims (just maybe didn't do it the way he wanted.) She still won't stop attacking my post style, long after we just had a whole shit fest regarding it.
Tai...beyond my stuff on Ciato from earlier, I have nothing. I'm inclined to credit those as Ciato just playing really weirdly and being pressed with real life issues, as since she was replaced by Tai, I haven't seen anything worth noting one way or another. He seems to have done his best to catch up with all the craziness.
As of now, I'm thinking there's a scum between Andrew, Elfboy, and Ashe. Elfboy claims to have been absent cause he was constantly reading and kicking himself into posting but...I'm not inclined to take that as an excuse. That excuse feels forced, frankly. "I was trying to get myself to post but I couldn't!"
Oh, forgot another thing to add to Elfboy...
He calls me out for saying something simple like "If what people say is true about Shale, then he's not looking good" and says "That's it? Come back with actual substance!" He acts like I was making a case on Shale, like I was voting on him based off that. If you read the lines, its clear I was speculating that I'd have to actually look at what others were saying. As you all know, I actually DID do this eventually and pretty much disagreed with the stances given.
Ashe, as I said, is still bitching and whining, going back to excuses that were used a while back and have since been deflated, and actually isn't that dissimilar than Andrew.
Andrew I've covered all too much.
Anyway, that's all I have to say. I can't defend myself more than I already tried, and I can accept the fact that I am screwed. So yeah, might as well hammer me, whoever wants to do it. Again, call this a defeatist attitude if you will, but its mostly me just realizing I'm fucked, I'm not getting out of it, and we might as well end the day. Though, seems like some of the votes are due to "Not conformable with lynching anyone, but Meeple's flip at least will be a lot more revealing" which feels odd, but whatever. Don't expect much more posts from me, since I really don't think I can add much more.

And It seems I probably SHOULD have been hammered already, but a mod error, etc. But whatever, I've said my part!
