Don't you see, people? Bond is John McCain.
Ooh dirt, what's the grudge about? And do you still really have a grudge on me I'm not aware of?

It was a very fun game for me. It was my first time being the Seer, and it makes it very interesting. I also found out that making yourself look suspicious to get people to make theories against you can be a very revealing tactic, though it was entirely accidental.

I think many may have figured this out, but Zebra, Bab, Bond, and I had a strong alliance by Round 1/2.

Round 1: By saying I was the enchanter, it made Zebra come up with what I thought was a genuinely honest and fair theory against me. With that, I knew he was a good guy, and I offered him a deal to prove I was innocent. By this point, I had already messaged Bond to ask him if he was really the vigilante, and he responded saying he was and couldn't believe he was the vigi four times in a row. I decided to seer him and confirm, since the Seer and Vigilante together would be a strong alliance. And this is what I offered to Zebra, that I would be able to tell him by round 2 whether Bond was really the vigilante or not.

It was risky filling in Zebra like that on both me and Bond, since I had no real proof that he was good except my instinct from his theorizing. And if he was mafia, then he knew right away who two of the specials likely were.

I also canvassed PMs out to everyone Round 1 who was voting for me (except Xantar, that meanie), asking them not to vote for me. I think Magus changed his vote because of that, which saved my ass. Sorry to Swan, but I knew I needed to live another round. TML responded to my PM, and I was hesitant to believe he was good right away.

Round 2: I told Zebra what I knew and told Bond I knew who he was. So we had a three-man alliance. From there, they talked with others and BaB especially to get some clues on them. By Round 2, BaB was in the alliance, but they could tell you more about all that.

Then I was offed by the Mafia, so I wasn't able to see where the alliance would have gone with TML.
