Do you guys think a Disco-Sasaki pairing is possible?

Why did the chicken cross the road?
So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli
Yes, but he had already declared he would follow the bandwagon smiley. If it was offered on day 1 and he didn't follow it then him and Sasaki would have been lynched immediatly. In that situation, trusting Sasaki's to get himself out of the bandwagon would be the obvious choice.
As it stands I can see the following situations
Disco-Sasaki
Makaikhaan-Tincow
Kage-?(seriously, who could it be?)
I can't find any real link between Sarathos and the lynchees plus I simply don't think he is good enough to fool us as completely as this mafia has.
btw, Dear Mafioso, whoever you may be. You have played an excellant game and probably deserve to win regardless of whether we lynch you or not.![]()

But he was still missing when Sasaki was tied for the lynch on D5:
Here is D5A:Sasaki Kojiro: 2 (makaikhaan, Seamus Fermanagh)
Kommodus: 2 (Gaius Scribonius Curio, Sigurd Fafnesbane)
The only person who really tried to save Sasaki was Sigurd who was later murdered.Sasaki Kojiro: 5 (Ichigo, Seamus Fermanagh, Gaius Scribonius Curio, KukriKhan, CountArach)
Kommodus: 3 (Sasaki Kojiro, discovery1, Sigurd Fafnesbane)
Also keep in mind that Sasaki abstained in D5 when he was tied for the lynch. My guess is that he was innocent.

Well, there isn't any reason why Kage-pever isn't possible. It was scoffed at before, and it is unlikely, but not impossible.
I would also look for links between any of the surviving 4 and Seamus. I just can't shake the notion that he was our lynched mafioso.
The case against 'khaan:
He's a lurker, using a convenient absence just like Andres used a move -- to lay low with a verifiable excuse. In his favor, going that close to WOG status is not a good protection tool -- and a little risky for any mafios.
The case against Sara':
He's a lurker, using absence to lay low. Again, the risk of WOG is a mitigating here as GH WOULD WOG a mafiaoso just as readily as anyone else.
The case against Kage':
Sharp player, always around and pushing but never really taking a coordinated analytical effort. A classic mafia ploy -- being helpful but never quite enough. In his favor, his posting frew and style are fairly close to the baseline.
The case against Disco':
He's managed to vote every other session (more or less) save for these last two. In the past, he's tended to vote more regularly (if just as flippantly) or missed several votes in a row (and has been wogged for same).
Also, if you believe 'Kev is mafia, then Disco' is his partner. Disco is the only one I can think of, aside from Sasaki, who'd consider a "offer up your partner round one so that he's a mostly credible foil" gambit (and Sasaki's not suited to the passive partner role by inclination).
And no, I am not saying this to protect my mafia partner, because I am not/was not a mafioso in this game.

I quite simply do not trust Disco enough to have faith that he could last a whole game without getting himself lynched.
I would trust Sasaki or TC enough to pull that off. But there is no one left alive that I would try that gambit with.
If I was mafia in this game, with Disco as my partner, I would try to stay alive because I would fear that his goofing-off-meatball-votes would get him lynched.![]()
