Sorry been a bit quiet - it's an inevitable Anti lynch, so I'm happy to move on with it so we can have meaningful conversations with some other people. It's not happening here while there's only 2 people with any chance of being lynched today, and of those 2 I don't see Arrows going down.

<p>I'm sold and may not be around much tomorrow.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Vote: Antithesis</strong></p>

[The Two]

I mean, yeah, that's hard to argue with. <strong>Vote: Antithesis</strong>

[lukess11]

<p>That has swung me to 100% believe Arrows.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Vote: Antithesis</strong></p>

[moon_lit_tears]

If my math is right, we are at Ten. Do we want to end it early or see what else we can dig up fir the day phase. ?

[Leion]

I think we are at one vote left already, hopefully we can still get some more info though. There are still some that haven't shared their thoughts yet.

<p><strong>Antithesis-11</strong> <strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">L-1</span></strong> (Arrows, Crychon, eayragt, The Archer, BHK1978, Jaded, machinesxe, Shadowedflames, Astil, The Two, lukess11)</p><p>

<strong>No Lynch-1</strong> (Rayelek)</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

<strong>It is now DAY PHASE. With 22 players remaining, it's 12 to lynch. </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>

You have until 6:00PM EST (11:00PM GMT) on Friday, November 23rd to reach a majority vote. If no vote has been reached at that time, a No Lynch will be declared.</strong></p><p><strong>

[Teh_Showtime]

I would have easily voted when I posted earlier but for the fact we still have 40 hours it makes no sense to finish it now. Lots of time left and rushing the lynch just deprives us of any info we could gain
