Sorry for missing another End of Day, guys. I got really distracted by Brazil’s game at the World Cup and didn’t even realize we were so near the deadline. When I checked the day had already ended.
My reactions to the developments at the end;
Blade’s full claim - Based on his protection target history I don’t buy it at all, like Neeks said it back then, it’s awfully convenient that both Stuart and Ezekel died during the day phase so we can’t know for sure whether it’s real. The thing is that his claim of killing both Rynam and DCPat is uncontested, and the reveal that the winners of the Bowser’s Big Blast (Lux, Blade and Ezeke) all got a 1-shot kill attempt item finally clears out what happened with Melon’s BP; Ezekel shot her with his item and so she was vulnerable for that ITA shot. So for all that, I believe Blade and also Blarg more too.
Neck Jailer claim - Obviously I believe it. His crumbs with rac make sense and it’s also uncontested. I initially had the suspicion that a role this powerful probably wouldn’t be town aligned, but the limitation that he can’t strong kill his target unless he’s not town aligned makes sense (although that begs the question: Lone Stranger’s alignment is different from rac’s?). Timing of the claim also made sense. He had 4 votes (from rac, Lux, Blade and Polter) and Blade had just claimed.
I’m sideeyeing Polter again after his vote. I agree with most of his readlist, but maybe that’s because it’s a fairly safe one and lots of “leans”.
hmmm
Briefs lynch - That was a absolute mess of a lynch. People just defaulted for the lynch that was almost unanimously agreed to be one of the worst since before I subbed in.
It’s completely understandable though after both claims and no other leads to go on, which is in the end pretty telling how much town depended on those active players.
