Sillem's Black perished, but TBH I don't think anybody cares. It's been a slow bleed and while it might be the Sillem's season finale, everybody saw this plot twist coming since the Pilot.

Ennerdale, however, is in the midst of an interesting battle. After being sucker-punched several times in the family jewels more than any other blend today, it has lost a net of zero hit points. It'll be interesting to see what'll happen as this battle rages on, but I have a feeling that a good ol' gutting is coming and that Ennerdale's innards might become its Outerdales.

So can I go back and vote all the days I missed?

I guess you could do that. That's not what I did though. I voted on the 23rd and 24th.

So the 17th, 18th,19th are out?

I don't know man. I think you might be taking this too seriously.

But I strongly agree with @sablebrush52.

This thread is "fascinating", and "someone ought to write a doctoral thesis" on it. There's some commonality here with the Stanford prison experiment. Maybe Robbers Cave. But it remains to be seen. We're only half way along...
