Why within the next hour?
Two hours until someone falls dead.

++Greenie


I don't know why, but I've this sneaking suspicion that we are missing something completely obvious.

Why would you switch lynch targets?
Just setting yourself up for disaster.

I'm keeping my bonus votes for the moment, because I've voted so close to the clock striking midnight every Day - that I just can't bear to break with habit.
Not that I'll wait until the dinging.

Greenie is a known wolf but she has expended all of her bonus, so if she survives today she won't have any power to save herself the following day. If you are hording your bonus you are benefitting the baddies that's it. If someone is hording them besides Fea that is not good, and every innocent should pile on their vote to the person trying to keep their bonus (you said yourself anyone who is hording their bonus except for Fea does not have the best interest of everyone in mind or they are the vampire), so anyone keeping their bonus I will assume is a baddie (or wants the baddies to win) and we will force that person to get rid of their bonus. Basically we can do it the nice way and agree to it, or the hard way and force everyone to dump their remaining bonus.

By switching lynch targets you are..
A) not guaranteed they are a baddie
b) not guaranteed it will work. Mostly, not even a high probability of it working

False, we have already established if you are keeping your bonus, you don't have the best interest of everyone in mind, and right now you are purposefully keeping your bonus and being an obstructionist. So, you add all your bonus now, retract, and vote for Greenie again, or you are exposing yourself as a baddie to everyone and therefor it would be better to get rid of the baddie who is the bigger threat (the one with more bonus).

False.
After this, I'm done with this topic.

Changing the lynch target at the last minute - has a high probability of failing. I've read stories about it in various Werewolf libraries.
How are you guaranteeing that everyone will be gathered here, to do so?
How are you guaranteeing that the new target is even a baddie?

Furthermore - If I were a baddie, do you think I would've even brought up the subject? No.


You can continue to badger and holler all you wish.
I will be using my bonus votes, however as I said - I am keeping with habit.

Go feather ruffle those who haven't voted, hmm?
Or perhaps those whom said they would come back, and have yet to show up?


X'd with Nilp x2.

And that is why I say you are being an obstructionist, because you have been saying one thing (those who keep their bonus don't have the best interest of everyone in mind, or they are the vampire) but doing something completely opposite.

Because of that, I have to assume you are a baddie who wants to keep their votes to have more power tomorrow. Greenie is a known wolf but she has no more power, her votes are expended, you are showing your fur by trying to hold on to your bonus, so we would all be wiser to get rid of the baddie who has more power.

Just a note, people: Fea leads the vote by four.
