I said in Skype chat, but I'll say it again. Sorry Orph, I only meant it as harmless banter and I'm glad we were able to sort things out.
Now then...
I've changed my mind.
It's about time things get serious.[/CENTER]
We've gone over the evidence extensively for what we have, but so long as time remains on the day phase clock it's our duty to gain as much info as we can so that the killers can be stopped. So I won't be leaving things up to chance just yet. In fact there are still plenty of options here for us to explore. So I'll start off by looking into our current replacement lead.
Bacteriophage, for now I'll be going over his witness testimony regarding his suspicions which he listed earlier in the thread. During which I will attempt to find flaws or truths within his argument.

Spoiler:
Alright, so after reviewing my posts, it's ultimately occurred to me that I have not been taking this game seriously, so from now on, I'll be more dedicated. Obviously you people think I'm scum, and hopefully I can prove to you that I am not in this post.
The defense would like to assert the point that nobody is "scum" until found guilty. As a defense attorney it is my job to find the truth about you. Right now, I am of an unbiased belief as to your allegiance.
So first off, why did I pick Klippy? At the beginning of the game, I was taking things too carelessly. I saw a bandwagon, and I jumped on it without thinking. No malicious intent there, right? But why didn't I get my vote off Klippy after he claimed, you may ask.
The fact is that I didn't bother. Everyone else already changed their vote, and I had no wish to vote for someone else. I alone would not cause Klippy's lynch. It was a safe resting place to assure I had no influence for the rest of the day.

You say that you alone could not cause Klippy's lynch and that you jumped on a bandwagon carelessly, yet you were the THIRD person to vote for Klippy AFTER Absol and Gio. The Klippy situation wasn't even a bandwagon until you added your support to it as well. I highly doubt you weren't reading the thread WHATSOEVER and as such you should have realized this. One vote is random if claimed to be, two makes it a little bit suss.... but three makes problems, three starts bandwagons. As such, iff anything this is what truly started the bandwagon as Nimsy in her next post stated that she would "bandwagon it up" inferring that prior to that point the bandwagon had in fact gotten started.
So either you really were just not reading anything (which in itself is a pretty bad sign)... or you voted for Klippy with intent... either because you were joining to start the bandwagon for definite to progress the game or protect yourself, or for other more malicious circumstances.
Your lack of changing said vote after the reveal? Perhaps a safe/lazy play. Perhaps a means of subtly avoiding the idea of putting Gio in further danger. At this point, we can't take your word for it... but it's worth noting that not once did you even subtly question Gio or agree with those who did.
Here are the following people that voted for Klippy:
Absol used Bite!
Voted for klippy. I don't find this particularly suspicious, as it was day 1 and she was just randomvoting, but was she really just randomvoting? Gio7sm was the second to vote for Klippy, and he was mafia.
Not to mention that Gio7sm and Absol used Bite jumped to Jupiter as soon as Klippy role revealed. Was this their job? To make him reveal and quickly jump like nothing ever happened?
Gio7sm
Gio was second to vote for Klippy. He was later revealed to be an idealist. Is it possible that he was working with Absol?

I find it funny that you would accuse Absol of being suspicious because she random voted. Especially since mere sentences before this you claimed that you joined forces with her immediately. You claim that the bandwagon had already started when if you look again you'll see that it was your influence that started the bandwagon proper. But you may be aware of all of this already.
While the idea that Gio and Absol were working together was an interesting one... I am also trusting the prosecution, Seth, to have a sort of definite answer for us on the morrow as to the allegiance of the latter. As such I have even less reason to arrest her than before, my previous evidence notwithstanding on the matter as I have faith that soon enough Edgeworth will solve this issue on his own merit.
Me
I already stated my reasons for voting Klippy. I saw a bandwagon starting, and I was careless. I can see how this clearly appears malicious, but all I can do is give you my word. Whether you believe me or not is up to you.

The defense would like to draw attention to a post made by the defendant at an earlier time to this testimony. As follows:
Apologies for keeping my vote on Klippy, but I literally forgot about this game after voting for him, which was honestly just a random day 1 lynch. I would've changed it if I remembered I was in this one.
I'm still kind of confused regarding what's going on, but I'm glad that no one died tonight.
To those of you do not see the contradiction, allow me to point it out to you.
I saw a bandwagon starting, and I was careless.
...which was honestly just a random day 1 lynch.
...which was honestly just a random day 1 lynch.
The defendant at first claimed to have voted for Klippy as a random day 1 lynch. However upon being further suspected he changed his story to say that he was instead joining a bandwagon... his ally Gio being already dead, Bac would have no trouble using Gio and Absol as an excuse not only to save himself... but to earn another kill for his cause in Absol's death, were he an idealist.
Either way, such an accusation is conjecture. The fact remains however that Bac here has changed his story once already to something that better suits his situation.
Nimsy
Nimsy didn't talk much. She's acted kind of strange, and I'll be keeping an eye on her, but that's about it.
Twiggy
Same as Nimsy.
We're all rather strange around here... but as to her voting, whether she has malicious intent or not, she was the first person to really "jump on the bandwagon" that you had finalized. While I agree that she should be watched I also have to make the point that she is the least of our concerns at this present moment and that further investigation will be of more use to us tomorrow.
As for Twiggy, I will do the same. For right now I have no real comments to make.
I will also be passing over the witnesses statement on Netto, as it is rather null and void to this situation.
Jupiter
Poor Jupiter. Voted by Ullion because he voted for Klippy for "No reason" as if anyone else who voted for Klippy had a reason. Does this make Ullion suspicious? I'd say so. It makes it worse that both Gio7sm (revealed to be an Idealist) and Absol (my main suspect today) both voted as well. Kiyoshi the Polar Bear ALSO voted for Jupiter, but that's not enough for me to suspect him much at all.
Ullion is suspicious. Why? He chose to vote for Jupiter for jumping on the bandwagon for no reason, when myself and 4 other people did the same. This is a minor suspicion as of now and I will be watching him.

Spoiler:
Now here's a question for you... why would you have no suspicions for Kiyoshi voting for Jupiter for no reason...
Especially considering Gio chimed in with a similar vote right after! Isn't this your exact reason for suspecting Absol of working with Gio in the first place?! Why would Kiyoshi get special treatment compared to her?!
You could say that Kiyoshi is not responsible for starting the Jupiter bandwagon... and that that's why you suspect Ullion instead...
But you've already stated at the beginning of your testimony that without Gio's close proximity to her vote that you wouldn't be able to suspect Absol at all!
Ullion has given a passable reason for his rallying against Jupiter yet you suspect him over Kiyoshi...
A man whom almost fits every exact reason for you to name Absol as your prime suspect!
I see only one reason for this attitude... and that is your desire to protect a fellow member! A fellow idealist!
*The court starts an uproar, only to be silenced by the judge.*
While the evidence is far less suggestive of Kiyoshi than you... this particular flaw in logic incriminates the both of you further than any other evidence presented for any other player during this day phase.
So for now, while nothing is one hundred percent confirmed just yet. I am inclined to agree with everyone else and...
[ARREST] Bacteriophage
Tell me Bac, do you care to explain your flawed reasoning to the court? Or will you accept your fate?
