I'd like to reaffirm the fact that I'm running for election too under the platform of "save me from the impending hit coming my way." If you don't vote for me, it's basically murder ... wink.

My list
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.

Yeah I know ... that's why I didn't want to post it and why I wish I didn't mention it, but you can't edit. Doesn't matter though, I'll probably get lynched or hit night 1 anyway.

Well in my defense of playing terrible - it is my first mafia game. I've also played a game sort of like this. When I played this when I was the killer, I liked to make others think one particular person I chose at random was the killer. When I wasn't, I liked to try to get the most killer votes for the hell of it. I kind of reverted back to that style and slipped. Then I commented on the ramifications (or lack thereof) of me being killed by the mafia for mention said list (which wasn't that good anyway). I never advocated that the mafia kill me - I merely was saying that they probably would and I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't.

Well I changed my vote to t_co. With the drama going on having 1 official on each side of the fence is probably preferrable. If he's wrong, we just lynch him.

I already have a reason. I'm not sure who is right, but there seems to be a 2 sided drama (which I'll admit I was a part of early and had a part in starting). I figure it's better odds to have 1 from each side then have 2 from one. The worst that happens if t_co is mayor .. the mayor lynch goes bad. Then we just vote lynch him next like he proposes.

Yeah, I suggest we drop the drama for now and work on the clues while we have a bit of time left. So far the best fit we've come up for #1 is hobbes. Does anyone have any ideas for number 2? Without looking I think the most important clues where "vile dirty scum", thin knife, put the body in the closest/cleaned up the blood.

I don't think he plans to lynch you citi.zen ... I think it was meeple or something. Anyway so the reaction by #2 "vile, dirty scum" and looking at him in disgust might have been due to Qatol being the "legal advisor." Anyone out there hate lawyers real bad?

Yeah, that clue doesn't give us a lot though (if it was even meant to be a clue). That would leave us with the closest possible being Jayme calling python garbage in his profile. That is way too flimsy, and you can't fit him with any of the other clues of #2.

The thin knife. The only thing I can comp up with is DoctorH if the writer is taking the Doctor part literally (surgical knife). But that's way too little to go on, and stabbing someone wouldn't be a very doctor like thing to do.

I guess we're left with the closet stuffing/cleaning up the blood then. There might be some sort of connection I am missing there. Or it is possible we weren't meant to find anything out about #2 and should concentrate one #1's behavior.

Perhaps, it might be something to keep in mind. DoctorH is more than likely going to become the sherrif anyway so he'll be safe for awhile. No need to start rushing to judgement on something that we could be off base on.

Yeah I still advocate hobbes (no offense man) since he's the best fit we've come up with from the clues. Though keit (the guy with the cookie monster in his profile) fits #1 to a lesser extent as well. But hobbes is probably the best bet.

Are you implying that Liquidia has an air shortage? Is this game going to turn out like the movie Space Balls? If so, I suggest we figure out who Lone Starr is right away and ride him to victory.

Well ultimately, it appears who we lynch will be meeple's decision. I still advocate hobbes off the strength of clues, but ending the drama would also be a nice outcome. Also :

On the flip side, I request this--if meeples and DrH are both elected to mayor/sheriff, I want the town to lynch me as soon as possible to clear up the questions surrounding meeples and DrH. The sooner the blues can start linking up with sheriff or know to avoid him the better.

T_co seems to advocate his own lynching for some reason.

I sort of did the same thing to a lesser extent though. With the whole "list" fiasco I wish didn't happen. Though I guess I came off wrong to everyone. I meant it as a "I noticed some pattern in voting, take it as you may" not a "amg these guys are mafia." Though some may say "you said if you were right you figured out who 4 mafia were." To that I say, I never thought my list was right and certainly not the whole thing.

It depends on if there is anyone else worth lynching on day 2. That assumes we figure someone else out from our day 2 clues.

I wouldn't be against it, I just hope he doesn't turn out blue, but we sort of run that same risk with anyone.

Green: we proceed as normal, move on to using our next set of clues for our next lynch.

Blue: we biff ourselves on our collective heads, then move on as normal

Red: rejoice about taking a mafia down on our day 1 lynch.
a) either go after anyone we perceive as a follower (I realize some might feel I belong in this category)
b) proceed as normal with clues.

Well, I will explain my reasoning on my vote, take it as you may, believe me or not. I'm trying to consider worse case scenarios for mafia getting elected to positions. Keep in mind, I'm not accusing anyone of being mafia through this. At this point I can pretty confidently say I don't think t_co and doctorH are both mafia. If t_co is elected the worst case is the mafia gets 1 of the positions. I consider it more likely doctorH and meeple are on the same side (either townies or mafia) compared to t_co and doctorH. So if doctorH and meeple are both elected any of the 3 combinations is possible, 2 townies, 1 of each, and 2 mafia. I'm trying to ride the fence and get at least 1 townie into one of the elected positions. So I went with t_co as I believe it gives the best chance of getting at least 1.

I think my reasoning there is decently sound. I could be wrong. At this point if I changed my vote off t_co it would be suspicious anyway.

And I didn't claim I wanted both sides in office. I claimed I wanted at least 1 townie in office. I would prefer 2. What do you want me to do? No matter what I do with my vote now would be suspicious. It matters not anyway, at this point I'm pretty confident doctorH/meeple are going to be elected.
