Like the post earlier didn't seem too hard on, but I could be wring. I would say Cactus is the person who jumpstart the train with his reasoning, but boogie was the one who rolled with it.

Literally, until now, Cactus had posted his reasoning, voted and then just left, so yeah, kinda does look like he just started it and then put his hands up and left (obviously, he could be busy, but like, that's what it looks like), also, MW said that Cactus got the same logic as him, just interpreted it differently, so yeah Paige, it could be Cactus jumping on MW's light read
Boogie brought this up a whole 60 posts before Cactus did.

MW's (okay very) light read was talked about for a little bit, so yeah no way you didn't pick it up if you had read enough to be suspicious of convientely the two MW had talked about, and there were other people making jokes on human/aliens as well, so why gun for Blizz? Who had like two posts?

The defeatist attitude Cactus is giving off is giving me weird vibes but idk what what to think about it, scum doesn't usually do this, but it could be a psych out considering how sudden and...strong that was?

Yup, reading back on boogie's ISO. I'm half blind apparentely

With full understanding that if Dodd turns out to be town that it is almost surely going to guarantee I get (mis)lynched next...

Vote: Cactus

Even if he does turn out to be town, there's a variety of reasons now why I feel justified in this vote. If I turn out to be wrong, I'm willing to accept the resulting suspicion-onslaught that's gonna come with it.

i have a headache and yall post too fast for me to keep up with

current take is the "im taking my ball and going home" move is very anti-town play whether dodd is scum or not and im tempted to call a policy lynch regardless of everything else

When he got caught as scum last game he kept self voting and un self voting. This ain't new.

sorry all

i'm having a legit really hard time with isolation today, so getting piled on just pissed me right off for irrational reasons. i get that now.

look, i didn't read like, any of the first six pages basically - so in my eyes the first time anyone pointed anything out was when i did. i assumed everything was nonsense in the first bit.

y'all wanna lynch me, you're wrong.

but you do what you need to do.

I'm sorry you're having a tough time. It's just a game tho. No need for any of us to get upset no matter how hard we gang up on each other.

I'd like to hear what Yugi has to say. I've noticed you've been lurking the past couple pages, but it's been a while since you've said anything.

I'm not casting any kind of suspicion on you for it lmao I'm just curious what you think since the conversation has evolved since the last time you posted. That wasn't a 'what you hiding bro' ping or anything.

I also would like to revisit this later though. I've said all I can in my own defense so regardless of where the suspicion goes, I would like to point out that I was making that post when Yugi posted the thing you guys saw as an 'out'. I chose to ignore all the new posts that were made in the 5-ish minutes I spent writing those bits, because I was trying to focus on getting them finished. I did not see that 'out' until after I had already posted. I don't know if it's suspicious though, because while he could have easily just accidentally provided that (had I needed it, which I didn't), it would be a pretty clever move to sneak that in before I can defend myself so that any defense I give from then on is debatable.

Anyways that's for a later time. I'm sticking to Dodd for now.

The short is that I'm too frazzled and am mentally too behind on what's happening to really be of much use rn but off of the top of my head some of the 'lynch me. I'm town. i have ALWAYS been right' stuff coming from cactus is very reminiscent of what he was like as scum during the last mafia game. I'm willing to not put further heat on the dude since it does seem like he's stressed from isolation stuff (and do not want to be That Guy who accuses people of lying about RL stuff) but that was something I noticed

And yeah I get you boogie. I legitimately wasn't trying to suggest anythign by pointing it out. I was just legitimately trying to get opinions lol with no intentions behind doing so.
