Hilda: Solving the Bats/Middleman thing takes precedence for me, because, well, this is just going to stick around, and cloud up discussion. Either it's true, or it isn't. And it's something that not only completely distracts Batmanuel (he's focused pretty hard on defending himself) but a lot of the rest of us, too. the sooner we get it off the table, the sooner we can focus even harder on the other cases like, say, Comedian. Or Kirk. Or Gordon. (Or Bats/Middleman if one turns up scum) Those are the three I'm going to be looking at over everyone else tomorrow should Bats/MM be town. (Though, depending where the NK's fall, my initial arguments may be coming from Tick. So, I'd appreciate it if we left the day going for a while yet)
Middleman/Smax: You've both got it wrong. Day 1 went like this. Jokevotes, trains form (another thing that connected Bats to Prinny, idly), Kirk and Bats start coming into the limelight, trains form on them, the trains die down(Middleman-Bats connection here, as Middleman made his suspicious post by UNvoting Bats, who was tied with Kirk at 4 votes each at the time), Middleman gets to 4 votes, I make my first (serious) post of the day, taking the sole Prinny vote off and placing it, instead, on Kirk. Then, we end with Kirk at 3, and MM at 5 at the next votecount. I then make my second post, switching from Kirk to Flay, and then the train piles up on me as Middleman hits 6. MM hits 7, then I switch people's attention to the Prinny, and we hit the two trains.
Idle notes:
- Comedian attacks C. Planet out of nowhere early in Day 1, nobody has any real suspicions on him as this is during the Kirk/Bats-MM transition
- Comedian refrains from hopping onto me instead of taking the easy train
- Had Comedian hopped onto me, the entire train probably would have been a little safer, solely because of the sheer numbers
- To those (I believe just Gordon) wondering about Prinny's change of heart with the "necessary evil" bit, it was to try and condemn me.
Reading over my notes, Gordon is seeming worse (making a big deal out of Prinny's obviously smokescreen words) and Comedian is seeming a lot better. At least, he seems like a bad town to me. With iffy logic. >_>
