Shinohara Yuuko arrives late to the gathering due to weekend galavanting and retires to his tent to read the scrolls on events of days past. I'll probably have to serve extra guard duty for this later.

Yup. I think we are thinking in the same way. No offence but you don't strike me as a high profile player. If I am correct to assume that all three kills were from the same hostile family, two things are strange. Well, good theories really.

One because all three dead players are mafia regulers in gameroom (Split is new, Khazaar is recently from TWC) and Lord Winter. All of them are not really a populer kill target in night one, suggesting that either the mafia gang is just picking random targets or trying to give the non regulers some chance to get active on mafia.
I may do just that, I'm opposed to killing new commers on earlier rounds. Plus killing Khazaar naturally points at TWC players including my self.
I think theres a good chance of mafia being in those four.
Anyways, for those who are making assumptions that lynching ATPG is the only way to silence him. Thats a big mistake. If ATPG turns out to be innocent, we will have to swim through 10 post of ATPG per page! Not that I have any problems with that.

Actually, I was going to be quieter this game and wait until the ending to make noise. But it seems with my death, I will be even quieter. If this pleases Lord Takeda Shingen, then I have done my duty.
When this voting phase has ended, if I am the chosen one to die, I would like to die by committing seppuku. It is what I have always dreamed of, if honorable battle is not to be had.

You giving up on round 1 is mighty scummy. Real warrior fights until their fate is sealed. You voted for your self but your only on lead with one or two votes He knows me only too well...

Why so aggressive?
The honourable warrior seems to be targetted for his talkativeness and his unfortunate habit of offering himself as a first round lynch (it catches up with you eventually)
Great warrior ATPG, take your vote of yourself, and hopefully you may have the chance to die like a true warrior in battle instead!!
Bear in mind ATPG is in 2 of the 4? challenges, so theres a 50% chance we get to see ATPG fighting anyway...
though i don't like the tib lynch either... he said things before the roles were given out!
Glenn was drunk... and obvious sign of mafia...?
Sasaki... *sigh* always in the first round lynch list somewhere near the top...
My lynch is obviously the only good one

I'd be willing to give tib a pass for remaining cool under pressure...but to do so would possibly underestimate him, and ignores the fact that if he were mafia he would have several people who could bail him out.
You may call the case weak if you want, but we have to make the best case we can each round with the info available.

YOU ARE THE TRAITOR HERE!!!
Challenge: Beefy187
A true Samurai would welcom the challenge of fighting against honourable foes in a noble duel - clearky ATPG's attempt to worm his way out of such a thing shows his lack of courage at best, and despicable lack of honour, and hence must not be a true Samurai, at worst.

No true Scotsman argument. And by the way, under orders from my master, I am prepared to die; and I have challenged a cowardly traitor here. It is you who know nothing of the ways of the samurai, if you cannot see this. When my master destroys you, he will do the world a service.A true Samurai would welcom the challenge of fighting against honourable foes in a noble duel - clearky ATPG's attempt to worm his way out of such a thing shows his lack of courage at best, and despicable lack of honour, and hence must not be a true Samurai, at worst.

What is a "Scotsman"? Mind explaining to a poor grizzled warrior what it is?

Let's not forget there is no case in the first round, we seldom have any information to go on unless a detective get's lucky - which is unlikely in such a big game.I'd be willing to give tib a pass for remaining cool under pressure...but to do so would possibly underestimate him, and ignores the fact that if he were mafia he would have several people who could bail him out.

Although, ATPG, I don't understand why you'd want to challenge a player so early on in the game ? Surely this is playing with fire ?

When ATPG gets votes, he often goes through motions like this in an attempt to convince people he's innocent. I bet if you looked back at his previous games, you'd find that in the majority of rounds when he's under pressure, he ends up voting for himself (and usually later unvoting). It's an usual method of playing and has gotten him lynched multiple times, but it's standard for ATPG.Although, ATPG, I don't understand why you'd want to challenge a player so early on in the game ?

We will discuss his dueling skill and wait for a suitable opponent to become clear before challenging, the great warrior Reenk Roink should not die in some random battle but in the fight for our might Lord Takeda!

No no see, he doesn't change his vote off himself willingly, but only when "dozens of people" have urged him privately to do so.

I'd say about 50% of the valid challenges so far involve ATPG. I think we should lay the votes off him and wait to see how he performs in a duel.
Since The Pizza Guy wants to leave, even voting for himself, I will respect his wishes to do so.

I'll be interested in seeing what it generates.Let us not forget we have ninja and traitors - they have the same goal perhaps but my companions are at odds over the alliance of said ne'er do wells. Pineapple thinks they work apart, the right hand ignorant of the left hand. Lord Beefy, however, feels rather boney today. And thus their debate will go on until we have more food to break the tie. Tis time to head to the Mess Hall and recruit the pizzaguy before he is lynched, slain or
Lastly, before I depart, if our great Lord Shingen wishes to impart some guidance upon we indecisive members of the lynch mob, it will be well received by this Trio! I'd not wish to abstain my Honour.
