Sorry I haven't been posting much. SP was a bit glitchy yesterday and I ended up going to a Forster the People concert.
[Vote]: [MENTION=5228]Razmos[/MENTION]; This may be a tad hypocritical, but he really hasn't posted much of significance. I also think he and others are putting far more emphasis on the arsonist idea than is warranted and it's actually detracted from the real scum hunting with pointless theorizing. Just to be clear: I'm not discounting the possibility of an arsonist, but it seems like a bit of a leap in logic from "smelly liquid".
Also on my suspicion list is Kyrastri. Her posts have been less informative/critical than usual.
For those suspicious of me, I'll explain what I've done so far. I voted as I do 99% of the time on Day 1 to provoke a reaction. Unlike others that vote to get someone to speak, I do not usually immediately remove my vote. I've found this works better for provoking reactions since most people assume I'd remove it as soon as they posted even if it was nothing but fluff. I was hoping to find something to grab onto today but I'm left with nothing but relatively insubstantial suspicions. Of course, I'd rather not see Luv getting too much power from his double vote so I'm throwing in my vote now.
I'll throw out at least a little speculative alternative to the arsonist theory since it seems to be what everyone is most interested in. It's possible that yesterday's lynch was actually interrupted by surprising the would be murderer with a bunch of smelly water. This might explain why 2 people were hit, but it's probably wishful thinking that two mafia members would announce themselves to easily. But I'll just posit that there's more than one way (doctor) to prevent a lynch and we're kind of tunneling on the arsonist thing to the exclusion of alternatives.
