The longer he takes to post said "list" though the more skeptical you have to approach it as. Misdirection is always a nuisance. Actually i'd rather he not post a list at this point in the game at all. Almost any guess is just plain wild conjecture and it may very well skew the towns attention all over the place. | ||

Also although I think it's not a good idea for the mafia to sacrifice one of their own so early, as basically each member is a 'extra life' for the mafia (so to speak) and losing one early means they have one less shield to win the game, don't automatically think they'll be obvious about everything they do. Members won't always vote in their own favor to make it less obvious, etc. | ||

Also, the mob is organized and know each other, so they are likely to pre-determine who will run from their camp. So my conjecture is this: one and only one of the candidates is a mobster. So far the candidates are: myself, DoctorH, meeple, 789 and t_co. I think one of us, and only one, is a mobster. PS: I also realize that I am an idiot for continuing to offer my best guesses to the public: if these guesses are right, the mob will kill me to get rid of a troublesome player. Who else would they go for? If I am wrong, I will move to the top of the list for getting lynched by the town, since I argued my points clearly and strongly and got innocent people killed (say... [NyC]Hobbes gets lynched but turns out to be innocent this round - who would you all blame?!?). i really like to see stuff like this  I don't really have any good thoughts of my own yet but I think that you are brave in stepping up and pointing the finger. | ||

Within our ranks, there lurks members whose sole driving focus is to kill us all (and hopefully leave a few clues behind). Individually, all we are armed with is our wits. That will not be enough, for our enemy strikes unseen while we must cast our votes openly. The answer is trust. We must learn to trust one another even as we fight an unseen enemy in our ranks, and that is impossible without someone to lead the way. That is why, today, I am running to be your Sheriff. I will strive to discover and work with Blues in the best manner possible, so that we can all make it out of here alive. I've played in good mafia games, bad mafia games, and served time in the psychotic morass known as Caller's Red Army, so I know how to be a man and do the right thing. Vote for survival. Vote t_co for your Mafia XVI Sheriff. Then, after falling way behind in the election: On January 21 2010 08:06 t_co wrote: This, coming from the same person who said seems kind of odd. I find this sudden tightness between meeple and DH kind of suspicious. But the main topic here should be that we should lynch the mayor regardless of whether we think he is mafia or not. The mayor role is actually quite overpowered compared to the sheriff, but the power only helps if the mayor is mafia. Consider that the extra three votes of the mayor don't really start kicking in until later in the game, when vote total gets smaller and smaller. By then, most of the bodyguards may be dead. If the mayor is town, then the mafia can kill him. If the mayor is mafia, the mafia get an additional 2 votes to use when there aren't that many actives left. In this case, the mayor is a pretty useless role for the town to keep and should be lynched ASAP. It would also allow the meeple DH duo to be verified, as if one of the two shows up clean, the other ought to be clean as well. | ||

Of course, the take it a level beyond, maybe the mafia will kill anyone with the best suspicions, because we as a town don't assume they will kill whoever has the best suspicions. But yes, that t_co thing is fishy. I am in favor of lynching him, since at this point we don't necessarily have any better targets. | ||

I also think it is a bit early to analyze anyone's behavior. Although T_co may seem fishy, I'd like to stick to clues for lynching instead. | ||

The Mafia, with 3 kill power, can merely kill people of all different sentiments to make it unclear who may have been right or wrong. | ||

It says in the op, mayor wins second place in "the election" and sheriff wins first. So there is no running for anything specific : / | ||

In any case, thanks for reminding me about the sober reality of 3 mafia kills per night...sigh. In any case, if I were mafia, I would simply kill the most active posters, since without discussion, it becomes a lot harder to figure out who the mafia are. I hope our medics keep this in mind. | ||

One thing I haven't seen us consider yet is how many people (if any) the Mafia is trying to get into office. If all the Mafia are active, it would be more than easy enough for them to get anyone they wanted into office (especially since half the townies are inactive so far). On the other hand, if only a few Mafia are active, the town is in a wonderful position. | ||

DoctorHelvetica Meeple Bill Murray Citi.zen I noticed a voting pattern between the four of them. First Doctor and Meeple voted for eachother and seem to support eachother for no apparent reason. Bill Murray originally voted for citi.zen, but changed his vote to meeple when it was apparent meeple was receiving other votes and citi.zen was not. Citi.zen originally voted for doctor, but changed his vote to meeple when it appeared doctor was getting a lot of votes. It started to seem like they were trying to get both meeple and doctor elected. Bill Murray also did what might have been a slip up posting "we need to get meeple out here hitting the campaign trail" Anyway, that's my flimsy list that's probably wrong and going to get me killed for announcing. | ||

there are too many reasons why someone could change their vote or vote in the first place, it just isn't ground to start painting people red over. now, I think Bill Murray's comment can be explained by the fact that meeple announced his candidacy very quietly in the vote thread whereas everyone else made a much bigger deal of it. | ||

The clues don't seem to tell anything in the Day 1 post... D; Anyways.... I think that we should stick with hard facts for now, and I really think T_co is extremely suspicious like most of you, but I think we should observe before doing anything rash. | ||
