I would personally advise against any hedging of bets, as to me it would be VERY suspicious. It would seem like a wolf trying to save their companion by hiding behind the defense of helping the village. Even if we do kill Dodgerchick and she turns up innocent I am sure we can glean some information from Ardent's defense of her. I imagine the message would be something like "Ardent fought hard for Dodgerchick's life, changing X senator's minds but it wasn't enough." It isn't going to be "Arden't doesn't bother defending her because it is a landslide. Her death one way or another will provide us information and hopefully get us out of this stalemate and feeling of cluelessness. If this turns into a wasted day (no lynch, no information) because of hedged votes I will be pretty frustrated.

So who should I scan? I strongly feel CW or Anxeity should be scanned, dunno which one. I'm still scratching my head over why Anxiety scanned Kwhit again.

And what happens if they KNOW they're getting scanned? Do they not send in for a kill? I'm a little hesitant to even mention who to scan out of fear that they won't do anything to come up "clean" (or as my PM states, "evidence of wrongdoing").

It seems to me that a good traitor strategy would be, as I mentioned above, lock up the lawyers and waste their scans. That turns my suspicion on Dodgerus, as everyone else has been saying. It also turns it on Abeus Anxietus, who scanned someone who had already been scanned.

Bodyguards would be anohter pivotal one for the traitors, but less so since there are so many targets in this game they could hope we'd guard the wrong person.

I'd like to look over the records for lawyer and killer bids if someone has a good one.

Autumn - I have sent in my arrest order for one of the people on the list I provided earlier.

1. There is the possibility to convert we think, in teh game.
2. I'm unconvinced that the scan tells us who's a Tarq, but rather,m who has done illegal activity. That's how it was presented to me. Not all tarqs may have had their hands dirty way back on Day two, but may now.
3. I asked the group who they considered to be pseudo-cleared, before I submitted my scan action, and KWhit's name never arose. If people had felt KWhit was truly sorta-cleared, then they should ahve said seomthing in the several hours between me asking my question and the deadline.

I still have a hard time seeing Dodgerus CHickus as a traitor. It doesn't make much sense. If she is a traitor then we have to consider her use of services. Either:

1) She's been telloing the truth about the services she obtained. The use of the sex slaves was confirmed by Ironus Headus. If she was a traitor why would she choose to scan AlanT, myself and Swaggus and confirm us as loyal? I know I actually am loyal, and the others were killed by poison.

2) She's been lying about her service bids (either in league with Ironhead or only lying about the lawyer bids). She was using her bids for other services or using the lawyers in ohter ways, but pretending to use the lawyer scan on the above people.

Pretending to use the lawyer, but actually bidding on other services would be a devious traitor route to go, certainly. But if so, why scan and confirm loyalty for three people who actually are loyal? Woudln't it be much smarter to cast doubt on some loyal people and confuse us, or confirm some traitors as loyal? That seems too ridiculous a move by a wolf to believe.

That would have to be either a move to make us trust her, or just poor play. Given how well the traitors are doing, I don't believe they're playing poorly. And why would the traitors waste the wealthiest Roman on all this just to trick us?

I'm going to vote to free Dodgerchick. I think there's too much evidence showing that she's been playing on the loyal side. Yes, I wish she had done other things with some of her bids. But if she's scanned three loyal people, and blocked a player with the killer as her moves, she must be the worst traitor ever!

Barkeepus I don't have a strong sense on. I've suspected him at times. I don't have strong evidence, as I do with Dodgerus Chickus, that he's loyal. So I am going to vote EXECUTE BARKEEPUS unless I see some strong evidence in his favor.

Have to tell you I'm a little nervous that Narcizo has so much power, being the second best lawyer and tribune of the plebs. Not to mention tribune of the plebs seems to be a temporary position as of late, so maybe I don't have anything to fear from that power after all.

Anyhow obligatory Toss DC over the cliff because I sure don't want it to be me.
