I don't trust Zell to do anything that doesn't benefit his game. ESPECIALLY since Acolytes can't kill him outside of lynching.
If the only people up for bounty acolytes, then he can't help them. But of course the instant someone puts a new person up we'll know who is who. But it'll probably be too late to do anything there.

I'm still thinking the best option might be to have our backup be removing a second kill at night (especially because an acolyte could post a bounty on one of us with mere minutes remaining in the day).

I am already going to be on the bounty board tomorrow. They won't have to.

As far as I can figure, it'd be best if we leave 4 votes on cg so it invokes a kill and put 3 votes on Tommy who's the next sus, instead of Zell. They either have to leave one of their Acolyte votes on canadaguy to still invoke a kill and will only be able to move 2 votes onto someone innocent, meaning the suspected Acolyte dies, or no one dies at all. If no one dies, Zell either does nothing or kills someone we suspect of being an Acolyte. But I still don't think trying to kill Zell is best when he's one of our usable kills. As long as there are bounties, he either takes one or does nothing, and won't get to chose and potentially off a good guy.

To that end, @Ants! I'm putting a bounty up on canadaguy just in case Zell survives into tonight. Based on what you said about me not having actually lost any gold yet until he fulfils a bounty, I'm setting this one at 16g.

EDIT: This of course assumes they don't have Loud Voice hidden away, in which case we're screwed anyway.

@Ants! might want to remove your bounty from the board now then, if it's not active. Unless what you said was lies.
I'm not sure functionally it should. The wording is I can't be targeted. So it would make sense it stays, he just can't select me.

And since it was the same quest twice, it's technically two instances of the same effect.

Ok, I guess that makes sense. Bounty remains but you can't be killed so it'd be pointless and Zell should just take my blood money.

Here's some news: You guys are getting your asses kicked. If you kill me we can just end the game and move on to the next one because you'll have lost. Badly. Maybe I don't do what I say, but right now you are a very choosy beggar.

Hey look! It's the very original "solo killer sides with the evils" plot line!

It's so original, very much didn't see it coming! 10/10 would watch.

I already declared this several pages ago.

Just trying to scrap literally anything together to extend the game at all.

right... kill an Acolyte instead of you. Two townies die tonight.

Kill you instead, only one dies tonight.

How would 2 good guys die tonight? Zell can't pick his target. Most of us seem pretty convinced Tommy is a bad boy, so either Zell kills canadaguy who's confirmed or he kills Tommy. The chance of him killing a village role (by Tommy being good) is pretty slim.

Killing Zell just seems to be kneecapping us for no reason.

Or he knows something we don't.

Don't forget he has the gold and items of those he killed, so he could have gotten something

Yeah, maybe? But we either take a chance that Zell's got shit hidden up his sleeves, or we just lose now... So I'm inclined to see what the zebra does.

I don't disagree. But if we get a rez off, kill an acolyte in CG then Zell potentially kills another, we're in good shape. So, I'm inclined to believe we're missing something majorly important as well.

Maybe they're missing something majorly important that one of us is keeping in our pocket.

Eh. Switching to Tommy.
Word.

We'll need @Fool's Requiem to switch too. If he's still on Zell they could easily enough move 1 person over and secure the kill still.

And I think we need to get only 4 votes on canadaguy, so that if they move an acolyte off of him it invokes no kill at all. I guess I'll remove my vote from anyone for now so as to not have to try to coordinate Zell/Jon removing one.

Don't worry, we've got another half a day to over-think this, still.

Ben and Jawneh would have to be acolytes for that, and well played if so.
Or you, in which case same. You'd have completely fleeced me and I don't even think I'd be mad.

But the chances of Tommy being a good guy, and not having stolen anything from anyone the entire game, seem incredibly slim.

Yes, entirely possible. I just didn't include myself because I know I'm not a baddong this game.

God damnit @VashTheStampede! I vowed I would never use that word you ass!
