    Capo2 is just as good a benchmark, for the players who went fairly deep into the game, as any. Admittedly some of those who died early just faded away, and it would distort things for them.

    TinCow's activity level seems to be a reversion to the baseline. I'll compare him in Taormina and Underworld (active bad guy in both) to see if he's consistent there. If so, we can provisionally label him a townie.

    Sasaki may simply be busy -- or cagey -- he's a bright lad and capable of either. Plus, he's been posting often enough in the backroom to make me think he's not quite as absent as some believe.

    Kommodus' explanation is very much in his style, albeit unsatisfying for this outing. Pity too, I had played the first few phases specifically to see if I could sidestep Holmes.

    More thoughts later.

    Edit: TinCow's other badguy big game -- Netherworld -- saw him posting at 3.0/ppp; very much in line with his mafia role in Taormina and suggestive of a non-mafioso status this time.

    Sarathos was 0.54/ppp in Netherworld as a townie. Not in line with this game....
