I really don't understand what makes me a good lynch target. Day 1 I called out Acro for being suspicious for his first post. I mean, I might have been trying to blend in, but it surely it would have been easier and less suspicious for Acro had I not said anything? Also, when Risen was being lynched anyway, surely as a mafia it would have been better to just vote and not say much, instead I was the one most pushing for the lynch. Why would I put the effort forward to do that as mafia if I knew that he was going to be killed anyway?

Okay... It looks like this day was a real mess (as well as day 2 to a lesser degree) so I hope day 4 will be the day where Mafia are finally figured out. I'm not still 100% confident on my own Mafia reads, but I'll post all my opinions and findings now, in case I get killed at the deadline.

I'll go through every player with my opinions/notes as well as a verdict: good/medium/bad lynch. Good lynch: I'll vote for one of these if possible. Medium lynch: I'll vote for one of these if necessary not to get a bad lynch lynched. Bad lynch: I won't vote for one of these - I can't see them being Mafia.

gumshoe: He's been my top lynch for a long time, but I don't think he's the best lynch anymore at this point. First of all, he has been inactive for a long time, so he'll probably get modkilled soon anyway. Second, as some others said before, his careless and bold posts don't fit the Mafia mindset very well. Very possibly he's just a noob who spoke what came to his mind, no matter how possibly suspicious. Verdict: Medium lynch.

Zealos: Apparently some think he's suspicious, but I don't really see it. He's been very active, contributing and created a pro-town atmosphere. Unless I see something damning from him, I'm not willing to vote for him. Verdict: Bad lynch.

Mattchew: I really didn't like his confusing and disruptive way to play on day 1, but in the end, he's been generating a lot of useful discussion. Also, I can't believe Mafia (Acrofales) would have focused so hard on getting a fellow Mafia player lynched... I'm not willing to vote for him anymore. Verdict: Bad lynch.

risk.nuke: I was a bit suspicious of him after his first posts, but his later posts have been a lot more contributive. I'm not sold on either his innocence or guiltiness yet. Verdict: Medium lynch.

Jitsu: OriginalName was a lurker, but Jitsu has contributed quite a bit after he took over. I haven't seen anything suspicious about him yet... Verdict: Bad lynch.

Alderan: He hasn't contributed very much, but isn't really a lurker either. Not a very bad lynch choice, but not among the best. Verdict: Medium lynch.

chaoser: Clearly has experience in playing, but hasn't contributed much, disregarding some of the more trivial discussion. A semi-lurker who doesn't look very pro-town, but not anti-town either. Verdict: Medium lynch.

Lyter: Has contributed little and posted seldom. Something feels off, but not a top lynch yet. Verdict: Medium lynch.

GreYMisT: Also an experienced player, but hasn't contributed much or often. Was the runner-up in day 1 lynch, but wasn't voted by even a single Mafia player. Both him and chaoser haven't done much to help town, but GreYMisT feels more suspicious to me. Verdict: Good lynch.

sinensis: Doesn't look very interested in adding to the discussion, voting without much explanation or contribution. Apparently suspects evantrees mainly, but doesn't push his lynch other than voting for him. Verdict: Medium lynch.

evantrees: A hardcore lurker without real contribution. Certainly feels a bit suspicious, but could also be a disinterested townie. Verdict: Medium lynch.

So, I'll probably be voting for GreYMisT tomorrow if I can.

His early game wishy-washy-smiley style of posting made me suspicious, now this giant list of useless has me more suspicious because his "good-lynches" boil down to:

- "Greymist hasn't contributed much or often and was the runner-up in day 1 lynch." Day 1 the town has ZERO information about anything, so basing a lynch off that info when we're this far into the game is stupid. Also, greymist has contributed more than the guy I am voting for if that's the criteria votes are being based on. Last, he wasn't even the runner-up day 1 as Xatalos said, so I'm not sure why he said it.

- He also says gumshoe has been his top lynch for a long time, but has other priorities right now instead (read: greymist).

If your priorities are preserving town numbers and eliminating mafia, you should probably follow my example.

Why are you so dead set on evantrees?

So Grey, you planning on defending yourself or switching the topic back to me again?

I'm also going to stop responding to you Mattchew (Which I should have done ages ago) Because it is just a back and forth getting no where and tunneling the discussion.

I don't know if I've missed something, but I'm not sure why acro is under doubt?

Trolololol. THAT is your idea of a detailed case on your scum list? You call out me, based ONLY on the red check. Xatalos, who you've been harping on all game. You may be right, I don't like his posting style either, but are wordiness and careful phrasing really scum tells?

Zealos is one of my clearest town reads. Evantrees and Lyter are lurkers and therefore high on almost everybody's scumlist.

Why are you covering for the king lurker of them all? Is Gumshoe your scumbuddy?

I judge your cases severely lacking in content, as it should be if posted by a mobster. But hell, it looks like I'll be dead tomorrow and you can keep manipulating this town.

What if acro is the real DT and he is playing it well by not claiming?

Hey guys, sorry i haven't checked in yet been busy with school(finals next week) anyways in regard to the blue thing, I did it because in my last game jackal was about to be lynched when he revealed the name of his character, thats what ended up setting us back on track. So I thought a similar thing could help Acro, I was also looking to see if he'd name the role and not the character, which would be a dead giveaway. It was a dumb plan, and I'm sorry but I still think acro is scum, what I especialy liked was how he pretty much assumed I was scum for accusing him and flipped out, I think he was trying to deflect the susiciun on him onto me, but hounestley its my own fault for letting him. If anyone has any more specific questions for me I should be reachable now

I can get behind the part about acro being possibly framed, looking back over day 1 he got a lot of flak for his overly defensive start and I would hazard a guess that he would be pretty high on the priority list for a detective to check out, hence also high for a framer to frame. But a detective should know that too, and hence I don't believe a detective should ever go after someone that was as in the limelight as Acro was because said risk is much greater. Which kinda makes me lean onto Risen being scummy combined with how ridiculously focussed he is on his theory that doesn't actually make much sense at all considering it is no way certain that Acro flips opposite to Risen.

Alright my reasoning for voting Risen isn't particularly mindblowing, I don't think there's much that hasn't already been said about him.

I think a lynch on him is just plain sensible at this point. If he is lynched, and flips town, then he will be DT because there is no reason to claim it and then be something else, that is just anti-town. So of course the other option is he flips mafia, and hurrah you killed a scum. If he flips DT like his claim, then no doubt he has checked Acro, the only issue is whether something else occurred that night like a framing which at least provides a slight positive in that you know there is some manipulative role out there.
I think him creating a heck of a lot of spam taking up practically all of day 2's discussion is a pretty scummy move, would it not be wiser as a DT to just take note that you checked someone and they came up scum and maybe use that at a later more critical time?
Part of me thinks it would be smarter to lynch acro then get risen day 3 if acro flips town, but that is only the case if we don't give any value to way Risen has acted over day 2 and just say its 50/50. But I think in this case he's been so destructive to progress that he kinda has to go before acro because it makes he comes across much shadier, trying to divert town attention away from something else that we may have have missed from the events of day/night 1.
