Ooh Lucifer is going all in on his honest approach vs. Poirot's cutthroat play in his closing speech.  He's forcing it to be a referendum on the Leon vote almost.  Bold play although I don't know if it works.  "Despicable" is a bit much, he may be pushing too hard there.

But another juror said that a player did something that they can't condone in a game and it's deciding their vote.

I also don't think you necessarily have to be a "bitter juror" to not want to vote for someone that burned you in a big betrayal, ie Leon and Grouch.

Juries are notoriously unpredictable.  Recall that last game here, "bippy" thought he was casting a sympathy vote for a buddy finishing in dead last, and it ended up as the deciding vote in that player's win.

so having 0 context for any of the game, not having read any of the questions, etc. my assumption is that the great Belgian detective is taking this one home. Y/N?
It might be tight depending on how burned players feel by Poirot's big moves.

We've never had access to the jury forum or their confessionals so it's harder to say than it would be usually.

SCULLY: Lines are, uhh, subjective, if you think about it.
HITCHCOCK: I'm lactose intolerant.  I think milk is way over the line.
SCULLY: Me too, buddy.  Me too.

I mean my vote was decided after rereading some things. One of you did something to another player that I cannot condone at all even if it’s in an Internet game.

what are they talking about, truly; i don't recall anything that bad?
Probably the Leon vote. That vote was very rough although in my opinion it’s definitely more of a plus than a minus on the resume. But I think when Hercule made that follow up ftc post going into the nitty gritty of how he was withholding his jury vote for Leon unless Leon did this thing that would get Leon voted out, it highlighted the ugly side a little more.

The move was essential, even if Hercule has beaten Rust in fire at 4 he’d have gone home at 3 without it. But you know how on Ghost jurors got mad at Dominic for annihilating poor Donathan? I think it has a little in common with that.

It also feels like more manipulation after already brutally manipulating that same person out of the game.

although I agreed with Lucifer's reasoning for bringing Hercule, just reading the first sentence of Hercule's speech:
Quote
Salut mes amis! C’est moi, Hercule Poirot! Mon Dieu, what an incroyable journey zis ‘as been.
And oof, it is not going to be fun for Luc to go against this gimmick in FTC.  It's too charming.  Can it even possibly be smart to go up against "ze master detective" in FTC?  I wonder if Rust would have made that argument if Lucifer had been around.

btw I do think Lucifer's reasoning for cutting Rust there makes sense.

Yeah, I get that too.  Whatever I try to embody in a game quickly starts seeping into how my mind works in general, it only takes a couple days!!

That 2-1-1 vote at 4 is really essential for Poirot because otherwise his story would be guy who was in a great position, and basically floated to the end with little agency.  He was not getting any boots he wanted post Grouch vote.

i dont think you could invent a screw from an actual twist as bad as what just happened to rust from the f2 tbh
Who would have guessed that a F2 would shift us from a Rust/Leon/Lucifer F3 to somehow having Poirot at the end, though! Really kind of crazy.

Thank you for writing that down for us.  How have things changed since then?

If Lucifer just takes the straightforward Poirot vote probably none of this happens, but it's been fun
