Looking...but not finding anyone I'm convinced is the final scum. Given the interest in the thread recently I don't think people would shift votes anyway, but at the very least you guys could have a heads up going into Lavos. So...if I'm going to have spent hours today diving filters to no avail, I may as well spend 10 minutes enjoying my last moments.
I'm left thinking that my silly arguments have not been silly ENOUGH. You will remember that (1) Old dudes are wise and good at martial arts. Now it's time to reveal the following - (2) Leonardo DiCaprio is not an old dude; (3) I'm pretty sure Inception didn't end perfectly for him - either he's trapped in a dream or he got some friends shot or whatever. Point being, OLD DUDES GOOD, LEONARDO DiCAPRIO YOUNG AND BAD. Keirathi has claimed to be a child, pretty much the direct opposite of an old dude. I don't think he's scum, but as a child he's far less useful than I during lavos. Children are bad at martial arts (exception: children receiving extensive training from wise old dudes are good at martial arts).
Anyway, the point of all that is that I have to go deeper. Leonardo DiCaprio failed to save the world or his friends or whatever was going on, but I'm old so I can do better. I will get sillier, and therefore somehow convince you of the silliness of this lynch. Silly-ception, if you will. Let's begin, cue the music.
(1) I will note again that I am 3 old dudes. Not only wise and good at martial arts, but THREE of them. As far as I know, every other player has roleclaimed a single person/thing. That is 1/3 as useful as me. 1/3 the legs, 1/3 the arms. You are to me what someone with only 2/3 of a single nipple is to you (hopefully). Not only am I old, but THREE is more than ONE. Therefore, I shouldn't be the lynch based on math (and nipple density). I'm pretty sure robo doesn't even HAVE nipples. Simply put, however awesome your role is, or however townie you think you are, I'm 3x that amount.
(2) Acro is banking on you believing that he has 100 KP he will use on Lavos every cycle. I have a 300 KP nuke, and as long as Lavos attacks me I can use it on him. That's 3 times his KP. If he's worth 4 townies of damage, I'm worth 13 (12 25-point townie increments + the 25 points of me being alive and not Acro). Not only am I worth 3+ times as many townies as Acro is in damage (assuming Lavos damages me), but I also, again, have more nipples. That's like...two mathematical superiorities right there (Reminder - two is more than one, so that's pretty much THREE ways I'm mathematically superior to keep around for lavos).
(3) Today was magical rainbow shell day. I'm the dude who helps you craft stuff with rainbow shells in the game. My PM says nothing about it, but it's probably EXTREMELY BAD LUCK to kill me on the same day you might get a rainbow shell. Lavos is somewhat similar to a kraken --> gracken --> Idra. Everyone knows that if you beat Idra, it's not because you were skilled, you were probably lucky. Picking up EXTREMELY BAD LUCK before you fight lavos, who is similar to idra, who you need luck to kill, SEEMS LIKE A VERY BAD PLAN.
I...I think that's all the stupidity I have remaining. I don't know if it's enough to counteract the stupidity of this lynch, but I may as well try. If those new arguments don't convince you, then gl with lavos and plox to win this one. I really hope we aren't screwed over because of acro or something else you guys (but not Keirathi and sometimes not iamperfection) missed in your bloodthirst to kill me.
Keirathi still unlikely, but the one to watch out for out of the people who we weren't looking at recently.
Out of the folks under recent suspicion, the two that make the most sense are the ones that don't have a lot of actions accounted for. Adam, hapahauli (a lot of his actions are either protection on himself or claimed damage on people who died), goodkarma (I still don't know how the numbers would work out, but his charging could be a way to account for some of the actions wonkiness).
By the way...since you guys refuse to listen and be reasonable, I guess I'm not really left with another option here.
##self-destruct
I'll be going now. Acro, enjoy getting lynched. The rest of you, enjoy the parting gift, and thanks for leaving me alive until the last cycle so you won't have time to recover before Lavos drops.
As for Hapa, VE and risk both very weakly pushed the idea of him being scum. Strong might be the only one who was somewhat aggressive with it, but come voting time he turned around and voted me..., so I really don't see a hard lynch push from any of the three. It definitely is odd that all three decided Hapa was worth the attention they gave, but the soft push for Hapa being scum by them does nothing imho to establish Hapa as town. If syllo hasn't already, I'd RB him this next turn.
Welcome To Chrono Trigger Mafia! You are The 3 Gurus of Zeal!. You have access to the 3 Gurus of Zeal, however, their powers may only activate in certain periods of time. Their abilities are as follows: Belthasar (Antiquity - 12,000 BC) - Guru of Reason Since hes reasonable, will only attack someone that has attacked him before. Does 300 damage to the last person to do damage to him. If more than 1 person, split 300 between the people that targetted him with damage. Melchior (1000 AD) - Guru of Life Restore 150 HP to targetted player or alternatively gives a shield with 75 HP. Gaspar (End of Time) - Guru of time Can view the current health of targetted player. You have 700 max HP.
Toadestern, The Queen of Zeal, was revived!
Lavos Battle Mechanics
The day is now a 24 hour night action boss battle. Lavos can only be targeted by damaging abilities. Mafia may not target lavos. If your ability does damage, only the damaging part will affect him.
Town have 200 + 25*(number of town remaining in the game) damage they will do to Lavos at the start of each night cycle .
So uh. What exactly does that mean for your win-con Acro?
Anywho, protected iamperfection last night, though I'm not sure what good it did. Will be targeting Lavos with flamethrower for the next however many cycles.

Nothing except sending in action PMs?
Well that and organizing how we end up fighting lavos I suppose. Seems pretty straightforward though - have someone RB toad every night and everyone else pile on Lavos.
I got a long and involved night post PM. I got a sword and can do 200 damage per night, but if Queen Zeal is still alive when Lavos dies, I lose after all.
Also, I totally told you so about austin. Again.
I presume THAT is what was redacted and probably why I shouldn't have claimed.
Oh, I also learned what all my abilities do. Dark Mist made me untargettable by cop checks. Black Gemstone is a 500 HP heal. Everything else is claimed already.
