You're really out-thinking yourself, now.

Seriously. It's not that complicated.

VR & Jared,

I'm assuming that once Traz is killed, we would be able to talk to Errand tonight, right?

[/ QUOTE ]

Absolutely not. Errand is the naif. That is the whole point of the character.

Syn,

I'm not going to address everything in your post, but the summary is that you, like Nich (and probably everyone else) are also out-thinking yourself.

However, I think Pudley and I were both surpised (and disappointed) when Traz showed up today. I was hoping that Jonsan had assinated him right away. That was the plan if we we're right about Dank.

Then that didn't happen.

So, now, I think we're stuck in the situation that we're in, and we're dealing with it in the best way that we can. If nothing else, you guys are confusing yourselves more by thinking too much. So, maybe that's beneficial to us.

The only person who has any thinking to do is MDoran. We're all along for the ride now...

1. As I've already explained there's NO advantage to them in identifying the real errand. Thier best bet is to name the non-errand villager they believe is most likely to vote with them. That then leaves them the real errand as a fall-back situation.

This is really an excellent point. There is NO need for the bad guys to identify the real Errand, since no one has any way of verifying that knowledge until it is too late. They just need to name the person they think is most likely to backstab the village.

Again, take the point that Errand pretty convienently WASN'T WDC or myself, and also remember Jonsan asking questions about what people would do if the evil guys told them they were Errand.

Guys, MDD is NOT a bad guy, unless there is something deeper than I can think going on here.

If MDD is a bad guy, the bad guys are going to come up short tonight if Brill kills traz: Bad guys will have 4 votes, we will have 10 (11 with Mandor), and the swings will make it 8-7. We will then have all of the bad guys identities. MDD was told he was a villager, the only question is whether he is Errand or not.

Let's not piss off MDD, he's the our only hope.

[/ QUOTE ]

You're missing the point. IF MDD is a bad guy then the remaining bad guys ARE NOT going to blow their cover tonight. Frankly I don't think they're going to anyway.

I also don't think MDD being a bad guy is the most likely option - but that's a damn sight more likely than that they names the real errand. Most likley option is that he's a non-errand villager and they're setting him up for us to lynch after Traz is Brilled. Then guess what? After he's lynched and shown as a villager they'll tell another villager he's Errand ...

And how many villagers do we kill that they name as Errand before they name one of their last 2 as Errand?

I ask you the same thing I put to MDD just now. WHY would they name the REAL errand? I can see benefit to them in naming a villager or a bad guy - but NONE AT ALL in them naming the real Errand UNLESS you believe they really plan to expose their last guys and HOPE Errand is willing to gamble on them naming the real Errand.

elevens is DEFINITELY too defensive about this, mdoran

it doesn't add up; they WANT jonsan to assassinate traz early yet still haven't done so?

and when i point that out and ask why, he doesn't answer but instead says i'm outthinking myself?

mdoran, something is fishy here

[Elevens]

Well, the post-game wrap-up will be easy...

I GAVE YOU THE REASONS THAT I THINK.

QUITE HONESTLY, I DON'T KNOW.

[Nicholasp27]

[Iron_Yuppie]

BTW, re-reading the thread, I realize I did not actually vote Elevens, so
