Another day, another dollar.
Since the Mercenary is no longer in play, sinjin's bid towards the Mercenary is defunct. As such, sinjin, also have none of the votes cast against you. Everything proceeds as normal.

Hey sinjin! You won the Mercenary last Night! ...one day too late We got rid of 2 Hostiles last Night, thus advancing our win condition! ...leaving us only 11 kills short of winning You are completely and totally above suspicion! ...but I'm now 'known Scum' I'm gonna take another look at my Role PM and see if there's anything I can do with it to throw a little confusion into the works. I'm not hopeful.

OK, I did a couple different rewrites of my PM a while back, and I think this one gives me the best shot I have (which admittedly ain't much): I'm going to claim responsibility for Bill's death. I'll claim that I had investigated him and was told that he was the Ascetic Monk, but apparently Cookies' 'Lightning Rod' power must have redirected my action to her. I'm also toying with the idea of going ahead and admitting that I'm Hostile, but since Cookies escaped before anyone could kill her I can't possibly win in any case. What do you think my chances are?

Where you ever actually investigated to be hostile? Or was that just deduced based on Red the lying hostile's "information?"
I think you should try to claim peacekeeper back-up. Like what's her name that was killed night two I think. That would give you a reason for being non-recruitable. And then say you are recruitable now that the peace-keepers have won and ask to be recruited.

Say you are Cookies back-up, and now that the peace-keepers have left the arena you have been left behind and are recruitable and your only way to win is to be recruited by town. We can work on your role claim if your up for it. Might by you a day or two

As far as I know I have not been investigated by anyone. My Hostileness/Scumminess is entirely deduced from the combination of Red's and SisC's information. And thought Red is no longer 'trustworthy', so far his info has been accurate. That being said, it might be possible to convince people that he could have fudged a bit.
But I think that two backup Peacekeepers is about one too many, plus I'd pretty much need to do a complete rewrite of my PM, and I don't know that I'm up to the task at the moment. If you want to take a shot at it in the next couple hours that's great; if not I'm gonna have to wing it. I figure I can hold off reappearing in the thread until some time this evening, but not past that.

I have been in thread throwing slime at red's investigations. I will work on your claim now. If we can get a name investigation of you by sisterC that would be great. You have been helpful to town and this is the best way I can see you out of the "evil" pool. Just don't reply for awhile, story hasn't posted forever.

First draft.
"There's a difference between solitude and loneliness. I can understand the concept of being a monk."
Name: Ascetic Monk Alignment: Third-party Designation: non-Hostile Role: Back-up Peace-keeper
Background You are a really, really good monk. You have knelt in prayer, you have fasted, you have read important books with big words in them. But there is another who fasted more and read more important books with even bigger words in them.
He has been chosen as the supreme Ascetic Monk, while you have been chosen as the runner up. If he is eliminated by the unenlightened you will take his place and assume his powers. If he ascends to the higher plain you will be left behind to further enlighten those who remain.
Powers 1. Should the supreme Ascetic Monk be killed by heathens prior to his ascension you will replace him and be given his powers which will be revealed to you on his death.
2. If the supreme Ascetic Monk ascends prior to the end of your voyage you will be allowed to join and holistically minister to your fellow passengers, ie you will become recruitable, unfortunately you will have no additional powers.

OK, I'm back. I still have about 4 pages to catch up with on the game thread from last night, though. What the hell are you people talking so much about? I think I'm going to go with my original fake claim. Not that I think it's all that much better, but I 'know' it, and I feel I can play it better. I'm hopeful that 'coming clean' about having killed Bill will make me seem just a little bit trustworthy at this point. But I won't do anything until I'm finished reading the rest of the thread, in case there's something there to change my mind.

You got the discussion off me for a while...but the votes kept piling on I think my chances of making it through the Day are about 0.00073%. But I think you'll be OK for a bit. Both LightFoot and laurie are far more suspicious than you, and I think Meeko is a more attractive target as well. I don't think you have a snowball's chance of actually winning, but I'll be rooting for ya!

I have no idea why you want to claim you killed Bill. But have at it. I will probably be voting for you sooner rather than :-*later Yeah I think we have a snowballs chance of winning. And while I have a bit of time the next couple of days, since we have two computers for awhile, we will be hitting the road again on Tuesday.....DisneyWorld here we come! I think this will be my last game for awhile.

You're more optimistic about the game than I am Have fun at DisneyWorld! We just took our annual trip to Disneyland a few weeks ago (we live in Northern California). One of these days we'll make it to Florida, but the last time we thought about it airfare was so expensive that we wound up going to London for a week instead, because it was cheaper

Ohm and I claimed that I killed Bill because I did. The best lies are ones that are almost, but not quite, entirely true.
If the Day hasn't ended prematurely in a couple days, I think I might admit that I'm Scum, but warn the town that I know there's a Redirector because I wasn't trying to kill Bill. That I think they might believe, because everybody thought that Bill was a dumb target for Scum that Night...

We go to DisneyWorld on a semi-routine basis. We camp and Fort Wilderness which is the bestest campground in the US except of course for the National Parks.
So before you leave the land of the living who do you think I should kill tonight? Not that it makes much difference. I think I'll try to off Inner again. Maybe there's still a third party killer out there who will put me out of my misery tonight.
