Which also means that whoever's vote has been blocked toDay will die at the end of toNight.

Vote Giraffe

PS - if we find that nobody's vote is blocked, I reckon the vote blocking and killing power was actually welded by Zuma and Giraffe has been covering for him. It explains why Giraffe so steadfastly refused to tell who he had used his power on toDay.

I steadfastly refused for the reasons I gave. I was fairly confident that Romanic was scum, and somewhat suspicious of you. The two of you suddenly seemed very urgent about needing to know who I was blocking, which seemed odd to me, for the reasons I outlined: Town has an obvious lynch target toDay, Town has very good reason to believe I'm scum (so the information won't help any Town Night powers, IMO), Scum knows I'm not scum, so the information does help any Scum powers that are affected by voting (if any).

And you still won't frickin' tell me why you wanted so badly to know before Night ended. Why. NOT?

I wasn't role blocked (that I know of) -- I used my vote blocking on Romanic again last Night. I was coy about it, because he seemed to really not want me to, which made me wonder if he had some sort of scum power that correlated with his vote. Not highly likely, but then again I see no reason to help players I think are scum.

If Town decides not to lynch me, I'll of course remove the votes before the end of Day. But I don't want there to be any mistake about my opinion: without proof of my alignment (which only I have, as far as I know), I think I'm far and away the best lynch candidate for Town toDay. My voting record has simply been way too scum friendly. (Because I suck at this game.)

Why the double vote? Answer: why not? I may as well use up all my votes before I die, right? Plus, I think it's nice and unambiguous: I'm not going to argue against my lynch. I'll be happy if I don't get lynched, of course, but I'm not sure what use I am to Town anyway at this point with both a huge cloud of suspicion over me and the worst scum-finding abilities of anybody ever.
