OK, Exams are over and now I can focus with almost full attention on the game. I feel I should give some opinions on the current state of the game.

With 9 people left in the town and at least one mafioso still in business (I believe that both are still alive, see later), things are looking dire for the town. Also, as there has not been a detective reveal as yet, I believe the detective to be dead. Logic would suggest that Tevash was the detective, as his death was spectacular, he was actively searching for the mafioso prior to his death in the write-up, and it was after his death that the riddle regarding the 'lost letters' was revealed.

It is my personal belief that two mafioso are still operating. The last-but-one write-up cast an element of doubt on this, and led to me accusing Sasaki posthumously (my apologies ). However in the last write-up one mafioso had a long conversation while the other had a broken nose. Similarities to the beginning of the game anyone?

OK now to the people left alive.

Curio: Well of course I'm going to say that I'm innocent. Haven't been as active as in previous games due to my exams. They finished today and thus I am now able to contribute more.

Ichigo: Has been fairly inactive recently (lurking?), hasn't done anything to raise my suspicions (or anybody elses it seems), but hasn't contributed much. Will now go and look back on previous posts to find clues.

Makaikhann: Was active early but hasn't contributed at all for a while. More experianced players and American players may be able to correct me here but isn't Khann (from his profile) a resident of Iowa? Where according to the news (even here in Australia!) is subjected to massive flooding. I'd assume that he is having technical difficulties in connecting to the internet. Could be innocent or guilty from posts prior to this.

Sigurd Fafnesbane: Has kept a fairly low profile thus far, made contributions when pressured to do so, but hasn't had much to say. Suspicious imo, but not any more than anybody else at this stage. As we approach the endgame we need everybody to be as active as possible. Also apparently very good at playing mafioso, and has successfully avoided suspicion thus far (going according to precednt maybe?)

Sarathos: Has certainly contirbuted. Had useful contributions? Not so much imo. I'm also guilty of this so I can't talk. Could be either way but I'm leaning towards townie.

Beefy187: Seems to have a similar level of naiveity to me, thus I tend to lean towards innocent, again could be all a front, but I doubt it.

Kukrikhan: I don't see what all the fuss is about quite frankly. His analysis has been well-reasoned and thought through, and put across in a very reasonable way. Has contributed throughout the game and doesn't seem to have done anything particularly worthy of suspicion. Again leaning towards innocent, but with him being a relatively experianced player, will keep an eye on developments.

Kagemusha: Legend due to being one of the few mafioso to actually survive a GH game. Repeating the feat? Has been lurking, meaningful contributions have been few and far between. Worthy of suspicion imo, but only a possible.

Discovery 1: Was thrown by his aggressive style originally, and have yet to be convinced by the arguments that 'this is normal for him'. Less suspicious than others, but has been conspicuous in his asbence recently.

So thats my opinion of the remaining players. Further research and rereading is required on my part, but this is my current view off the top of my head. Feel free to dissect, or disagree with anything written here. I'm probably way off...
