Morning comes, and all are present but the Jailor and their target. Nobody died to the Coven last night, and all wait to see what's about to happen to @Mike. That question is soon answered by a body being thrown out the door of the prison, in trademark JAILOR fashion. Yep, Mike was executed last night. He was... Also...REMEMBERING NOISES. An AMNESIAC has remembered that they were a CRUSADER. Whisper list: diacope --> Continentalcup036 List of those alive (14): Votes needed today: 8

Yesterday it was Nyko; today it's @Devise. "I'm the NECROMANCER," he says in his defense. To the surprise of absolutely nobody, that isn't good enough to swing people the other way, and up he goes. He wasn't lying! His days of waking the dead are over. Night 5 begins now. List of those alive:

Pleasure doing business as always and thanks for the fair discussion @Victor. I really hope this doesn't blow up in my face. Welcome @gorlab and @Aye my name jeff to Davos!

The sun rises, and nothing happens. Those aren't your morning results, though, that's just me being late. Eventually, though, some stuff does start to happen. @a_Ferk is absent today. The town heads over to his house and finds him dead on the ground, his brain eaten by the NECROMANCER's ghoul. He was a CRUSADER. Last will: But hold on a minute--a head count of the party shows the same number of people alive as the town had last night! Nobody can figure out why, until somebody notices...@Spartan has been resurrected! Whisper list: Continentalcup036 --> Alex Bridges Proto --> Continentalcup036 Time note: I've got a big run of days off this week. Through Friday morning, expect the times to be pretty consistent--day phases whenever I finally crawl out of bed, night phases right around 9. List of those alive (15): Votes needed today: 8

No essay tonight; I'm currently caught up in something. Nyko dead, he was COVEN LEADER. I'm sleeping in tomorrow bois

Day 4 begins! @Spartan died from guilt last night over lynching the Jester. He was... Let the discussion commence. List of those alive:

...aaaaaand TIME! The Supreme Overlord comes home from work and looks at the thread. 17 pages on Day 3; that's really something. @Ricer13 is getting lynched, based on not as much information as yesterday but based on a reasonable amount of doubt and suspicion. He says he's a BODYGUARD who's been on the Jailor every night, but was he really? Ricer's last will: Night 3 begins now! List of those alive: Time note: Expect D4 to begin earlier tomorrow. I start work at 8 and will have everything out at 7-something.

I started out with the intent to write this article about how Davos is at least kind of living up to expectations and talk about how I'm glad that all the moves I made this past offseason aren't crashing down around me and making me look stupid, but then I went and took a look at the standings so I could say "Davos is sixth in the league and third in the EU conference" and realized that there's a whole lot about the standings that's just...off (or, at least, a lot that I didn't think would be the case). -Helsinki is #1 in the EU. I do have to give credit to Jubo and the fine players of Helsinki here for keeping up a good degree of success. Buying Johnson in a move that not many people saw coming and then proceeding to sign Rodriguez helped them out quite a bit even though they didn't give up a ton for that. They're not exactly a loaded team, but they have a good amount of 600-700-ish-TPE players, putting them in "not bad" territory. I'm still surprised that they're sitting on top at the moment, though standings are tight enough that this could certainly change. -Malmo is somehow not terrible. 8-10 is not bad, considering that Malmo shipped out all their stars (except Adrienne I guess?) in the past season for future assets. It should be interesting to see how much they do or don't drop off, as well as what does or doesn't happen to Adrienne (with apologies to five out of six VHFL teams if he doesn't go anywhere). -Toronto is better than they should be. Toronto continues to be a dumpster fire, with Hextall, Killinger, and Magnum making up just about the only parts of the roster worth looking at TPE-wise. 10-6-2 is a really solid start, though, putting them up with the top teams at the moment. -DC and New York suck. Here we've got two of the best teams in the league from a TPE perspective, and here we've also got the two teams at the bottom of the standings. Maybe it's a strong conference, maybe not, but one would certainly expect both of these teams to have gotten off to a better start. Standings are still pretty tight, so anyone could end up anywhere at this point. I'm interested to see if some of the weirdness we've seen so far ends up persisting.

When you're actually online, Discord is better for general conversation. Communication is much more efficient and it's a super powerful tool for talking to people in general. If your thing is reading every single message, then yeah, Discord isn't enjoyable, especially in an active environment. The forums are where it's at for actual meaningful discussion, Discord is where it's at when you just want to shoot the shit and have time to do it. I understand the value of the forum and have stood against ideas which would lead to even less forum activity, but I wouldn't trade my server for anything.

@Patrik Tallinder yours if you want it, no obligation to use it.

ONE MORE WHISPER DoktorFunk --> Continentalcup036

Damn autocorrect Time note: Out of work at 10 again tonight. Night phase will be late.

Well, folks, here we have it, it's the third day. A gun goes off from inside the town jail. By the time the town makes it over there to see who the JAILOR has executed, @jhatty8 is already dead and sitting outside. He was the POTION MASTER.

Honorable mention and part 2 of the game: Guess who made this one! Not a name mentioned above.

So we did another "someone just decides we're competing" thing on Discord tonight and another graphics contest emerged, this time between myself, @gorlab, @jhatty8, and @Motzaburger. I've put the sigs below, in no particular order, and I'd like you to rank them and make guesses as to who did what.

...well, that escalated quickly. The Supreme Exalted Master of Town Business and Such returns from work, and doesn't have to go back and tally up the votes to see what's up. @bigAL is getting lynched, in a very quickly-reached overwhelming majority. I'm late; I won't write an essay. He was... Let Night 2 begin! List of those alive: Expect Day 3 to start by 11 AM EST tomorrow! I do have to get up for something, but not too early.
