i'd drop a self vote on myself, and i am at n-1 right now, but ...i am hesitant simply because i think it would take away from any analytical value. As poor as my ploy and self driven train are. But if i hang around n-1 long enough i'd be happy to self scoop.

However since he asked so nicely and my only other target is theohall.

 Shoot Newcastle 
 

It's a disappointment because I love his banter.
What a very odd phrasing.
I think my affection for Newcastle affected my decisions last game as well. Frankly I really don't think he is baddie but he is a safe vote according to him and has asked to be targeted.

If you are telling the truth then self voting was a very bad idea. Should have let the mob decide.

Newcastle (8): El Guapo, Remus West, Chaosraven, bb2112, J.D., Vorret, Scoop20906, Newcastle
Qantaga (2): triggercut, theohall

Voting has closed. After many days of name calling, mocking Canadians, and grandstanding the a caucus was formed to investigate who amongst these loyal, patriotic, god fearing Republicans might be a low down scoundrel Democrat. The battle raged back and forth until two candidates appeared in the lead: theohall and Newcastle. In a very un-politician way Newcastle requested that he be shot for treason in order to save theohall and for the long-term benefit of the group. After some trepidation the caucus voted in the affirmative with Newcastle casting the deciding vote. In a final bid goodbye Newcastle recites the pledge of allegiance, raises the gun to his head and pulls the trigger. And like all Republicans his blood flows red, not the black goo of a Democrat.

It is now Night One.

After a night of hookers and blow the politicians make their way back into the meeting hall. Hanging from the ceiling is Lassr with a sign on his chest saying “Republican dog”.

It is now Day 2. Seven votes are required for the next person to be shot for treason.

Probably because of how dead on he had been in the last few games. With nothing to go on as far as who may be specials why not take a shot at him?

Why? Because he did not like Lassr.

And I actually have no idea who is a baddie, but Remus is always a good bet in my book.

theohall and bb2112 are very unlikely to knowingly be on the same team. Therefore I conclude that one can be a badguy, but not both.

Unless, that is, that bb2112 saw theo as a lost cause and decided to jump in at N-1 on a fellow Democrat to give himself some clearance.

Interestingly, here's where theohall's train went:

theohall (6): Vorret, triggercut, Lassr, Remus West, tru1cy, Chaosraven

I pulled out to put a vote on Qantaga, mostly because he hadn't really done much, but also because I wasn't totally sold on theohall as a Democrat. He's up to his usually forest-for-the-trees stuff, but that doesn't make him team badguy, at least not yet.

In any event, once my vote was out, a brief time later Scoop put theohall back at 6.

Now Remus West likes to smoke dope, I have heard, and that is a liberal choice of drug....
