I can't wait for when I get lynched, then ShaLLoW will pop out and yell "PSYCH"
Edit: Or is it "sike"? Oh noes, an edit.

It's funnier this way. It's not like anyone would believe me if I defended myself anyways.

Just so you all know, even if I die, I can still post here to taunt you all!

You misunderstand me (or I'm missing your point, one of the two). What I'm saying, is that unless Chuiu can predict the future, he could not have meant that specific remark of mine to be a clue, because the clue about "that's low, even for you" was posted before my comment about height.

Do something a dead person shouldn't be able to? the rule is if someone dies from mafia or gets lynched they shouldn't be able to post, since they might sway votes. But I think it'll be better if dead people still post, but nothing that would directly effect the game. The rules allow me to post as long as I don't directly affect the game.

This is so complicated, I think we should just lynch something random, like prime numbers. Oh wait..Oh shi

1. shallow is not mafia, but that doesn't mean I'm mafia either 2. Photoshopping a message to frame someone is a stupid idea, but an EVEN STUPIDER thing to do, would be to send the message in that PM. So that "pm" is a lot less likely than a fake shop. 3. Simply a joke post, check out a lot of my earlier posts where I'm just joking around.

I doubt shallow is mafia anyways, he would be more inclined to lay low, rather than try to start drama that would put him at risk. The REAL situation is basically just a big joke by shallow, which everyone took to be true.

The other two give options of me being awesome.

I haven't seen him post much in the past couple of hours. I think he left, since I remember his last post being about a scooter or something.

The PM that he now admits he sent? Or is he lying about not being a mafia? Surely it is the former. In any case, both of them being liars just means both of them need to get lynched, although it's just Dragoon who is getting caught up in his web of lies. Plus, he called for Empyrean mafia backup. I never admitted to sending that PM that shallow posted. The PMs (yes, plural) that shallow and I exchanged are much different.
