I'm assuming it takes 3 ghosts to haunt so I'm still alive

I don't know if you can un haunt and I'm probably going to the ghost forum. I'm very disappointed you think I'm guilty I've tried to be nothing but helpful and straightforward. I really didn't want to spend that much tiem in the ghost forum this game, but I guess that's where I'm going.

I encourage all of you do research on the EC posts, the best will be "normal" words that are difficult to write without. Make everyone leave a trail and make it hard for the EC to fade into the background. Good luck to all the innocent students

I think WNC did something similiar to me last game - it was an obscure reference to a posting style that would almost never be picked up by someone - unless they themselves planted it.

It seems you are resorting back to the same tactic by using "made by a certain player" in hopes that someone else will come in - name that player - and then either that certain player will take heat, or that "someone else" will take heat - and you come off all squeaky clean.

Or in my case, rekrap just happened to remember that I used it a lot in the poker forum - so he tossed it in his EC posts and then waited to use it against me.

Frames sometimes work because we have nothing to go on. Last game it got WNC killed when he tried to frame me in such a manner.

I've gone through every post of yours since my observation you called out and I failed to see a question to answer until now:

Or did you just remember that I used that a lot in the forum? I know you don't venture there much anymore, but you didn't really answer my question.
I hadn't paid much attention to the posts until now, because of the ease of framing anyone, but now that we are narrowing down and more posts are out there I thought I'd take a shot a profiling an ECA post (as WNC had suggested with Dic Ex out), and I started with that same post he had to see if I came up with similar conclusions as him.

I didn't know who (no not that Who) would come up when I started the search. The first page (which is now the second page due to all our posts today) was mostly non-hits (e.g., Lucy, The Drunken Actuary and other names I don't remember), but there was 1 of you, MrsFrog and harvma, and then as I kept going I saw an old familiar ID...

they can't unhaunt - at least not in prior games.

The ghosts are likely giving Coffee^2 a chance to role claim.

Does this mean Whiskey must also suspect CC, otherwise none of the 4 could post those haunts? And JL can still haunt rekrap, by himself?

I'm just not sure about Coffee Coffee. My take on her has been that she's been trying to research to find the EC.

Buckeye, you're right that unhaunting hasn't been allowed in some prior games and that may be the case in this one, too. But I have played in at least one game where it was allowed. It all just depends on how the moderator wants to play it.

Makes sense. There is also the possibility that Whiskey is just at lunch.

BTW, CC, I was teasing. Obviously we'll know soon enough whether you're EC or not, and last minute PMs are a good idea whether you're EC or IS.
