    That makes absolutely no sense.

    Strange defense you have there GeneralHankerchief. Please, if I am wrong, it's better to disprove me and set me straight so the town may then draw conclusions from proper argument. Allowing my (possibly nonsensical) argument stand by not arguing it in depth will not help the town, yourself, or me either.

    I would, but then someone would vote you for "when countered, switch[ing] to a "better" suspect to quickly end the discussion."

    -edit- Unrelated, but when did I suddenly become "GeneralHankerchief" to you instead of GH?

    And there is a problem with people voting for me? Or are you disproving me by not disproving me

    I'm using your own statements against you to prove their inherent fallacy.

    I was only commenting on past behavior GH, not current or future behavior, so you will excuse me creating an argument based on it. Would you then please kindly explain your past behavior, and the reasoning behind it? To me at least, it is suspicious.

    EDIT - Just saw SK's post.

    Yes, my posts contain lots of WIFOM, that should be obvious. I haven't been as helpful as I'd like to be, and I am sorry for that. But I am only trying to stir up discussion, even if it's aimed at me, even if everyone of my arguments is WIFOM or illogical and I get voted because of it. If you remember Khaan, in my RE mafia, the town was basically silent and Chaotix went unmolested, and twice your vote killed off two town at the last moment, because no one discussed anything. I'm not trying to bash you, I am just saying - town loses without discussion.

    My past behavior, as I have already explained, was based on White Eye's continued insistence to discuss things related to the "FBI Agent". At the time, I thought "FBI Agent" was another game-assigned role like Computer Engineer, ex-SWAT, or Mastermind, not realizing it was another potential town threat. Later, I realized this was the case and dropped my vendetta.

    Unvote: Quintus

    Vote: YLC


    FoS: Quintus

    I fail to see how GH has "dominated the discussion using strawmen". You are inventing reasons to vote for an skilled and, at least of now, helpful, player. Further, almost all of your posts have contained a ridiculous amount of WIFOM, in particular your first post this round. Lastly, I get suspicious when people pat the town on the back.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Okay, the banter between YLC and GH got really confusing and didn't really make sense so here is what I think YLC was trying to say

    Quote Originally Posted by TevashSzat View Post

    @GH

    I think White_eyes:D is just really confused atm since I doubt that the mafia would make a mistake such as this so blatantly.

    Anyways, I will just vote:Beefy for the same reasons I stated about a page ago

    Edit: Tally

    Quintus 3: (w&f, khaan, shlin)

    Beefy 1: (Tevash)
    GH 1: (White_eyes)
    White_eyes 1: (GH)
    shlin 1: (Chaotix)

    Quintus is firmly in the lynching lead.....
    I posted this saying how White_eyes didn't seem that scummy

    Quote Originally Posted by GeneralHankerchief View Post

    Unvote: White eyes
    Vote: I'm here and will vote somebody soon, but in the meantime I'm not really voting but at the same time I sort of am
    A few posts later, GH stopped voting for White_eyes

    Quote Originally Posted by GeneralHankerchief View Post

    Made an odd comment earlier. I'll look things over more tomorrow.
    And then imedietely in the next post, he voted for me.

    Quote Originally Posted by YLC View Post

But we seem to be getting off topic now by patting our back. But I'll be honest, I don't find either White Eyes or QJC suspicious - true, they have said something's that can be suspicious, but neither really trigger my senses...I'm more leary of those who would try to control the situation using strawmen, like GeneralHankerchief. He seems intent on persecuting White Eyes and always returns to him each round, even if there are better suspects, and then when countered, switches to a "better" suspect to quickly end the discussion.

    Vote:GeneralHanckerchief
    So thats why YLC was saying that when someone (me) "countered" GH's vote, he quickly switched to a "better" suspect (me again) to end the discussion

    Anyways, updated tally:

    Quintus 2: (w&f, shlin)
    shlin 2: (Chaotix, Quintus)

    Beefy 1: (Tevash)
    GH 1: (YLC)
    seireikhaan: 1 (Reenk)
    Reenk 1: (White_eyes)
    YLC 1: (khaan)
    Tevash 1: (GH)

    Please update this when you vote on someone because it takes a while to update it after like 20 posts
