Why is it that every time I go to sleep, there's another two or three pages of posts waiting for me? Ah well, at least this time there isn't a hammer waiting at the end of it. Which is also why I wasn't around at the end of any of the previous days, they're all at 6AM for me, and while there are some things I'll get up at 5AM for, this game isn't one of them. So get used to it, I wasn't around for the previous day ends, and given how rare it is for the hammer to happen before deadline, I'm not gonna be around for any other day ends. I'm sure there's some of you who'll say that's a convenient excuse, but that's how things are, regardless of which side I'm on. Same with things being very busy at the end of Day 1, with me not really being able to access this from the bridge (ie. work). And given how many of my transmissions need to be made from there, if I can't do that, then I may as well not be here.
As for being on the wrong train each time. Both of those cases involve something happening to swing the vote while I was unable to be here. And that's all I'm going to say about that. Sure it looks bad, but there's nothing I can do about it, either now or when it happened.
Now, I don't have time to do any in depth looks before heading to the bridge, but I can give my proper reasoning for my switch now that I'm awake. There's two things to keep in mind here. The first is, when I discussed both Mr. Middleman and Ears (Mr Batmanual), today, I've always put them about equal in my suspicions. The second is, despite saying to Mr. Gordon that I believe it's possible that three of the four officers on Mr. Gunnar were Klingons, I still have a hard time getting past my own instinctive revulsion at the idea. It's just like Mr. Tick, with my instinct saying that Klingons would not do this, and my logic saying they have before, and it specifically looks like they have in this case.
So, when Mr. Axel pointed out that Ears' lynch would not, any longer, provide information on Mr. Middleman aside from making him look worse if he was a Klingon, that made me think about it. There were two reasons I preferred Ears over Mr. Middleman at the Mission's start. First, he provided information for me that Mr. Middleman did not. Specifically, on Mr. Gordon and Mr. Middleman himself. Mr. Gunnar has since added on that it adds information about me, a point I will address shortly. Secondly, I was feeling cocky and wanted to slam all three of the Klingons on Mr. Gunnar in the first mission before moving on to the prize, Mr. Middleman himself.
As Mr. Axel pointed out, with Captain Planet's reveal, we have the link to Mr. Gunnar's train and a possible attempt to save Mr. Middleman and with the timing of the attacks, the only thing we can learn is information on Mr. Hilda who I feel is not under suspicion because of her voting record on Planet and the Prinny. I was also using him for information on Mr. Gordon, but the claim from Planet is greater than anything Ear's voting record on the defender of Earth could provide. As for the information on me, Mr. Gunnar, Mr. Middleman should also work. I mean, he's only the person I've been second hardest on this entire game.
So, yeah. My switch comes down to either not getting the information from it it gave before, and realizing I might be wrong on Ears which, rare as that is, and going with the lynch candidate that I feel is about as strong right now, and has less meta arguments against it.
