I was going to be away from the computer for 3 hours and being honest, it didn't look too well for me, so on that level, it was personal protection, however, I only changed my vote as Pizza Guy basically gave up by even changing his vote to himself to make-sure he went out and if that is what he wanted, I don't mind changing my vote for that reason (as it would have aided my safety for this round at least.)
Good news, there are 24hours of a break. Which will allow me to do revision for my exam on Wednesday, undisturbed almost. After that, it would be seeing how things play out with the Mafia.
Tactically speaking, the Mafia roles should keep me in, for the sole reason people will be after me next round opposed to them being targeted, having myself in the game would keep them safe while the townies all target me for their silly reasons. If the Mafia-roles do kill me, I have to admit, I would be surprised due to the reason I just gave. Though, they might kill me off when people realise I am not the bad guy so don't bother chasing me, then they bump me off as I am no longer needed. Either way, I doubt I would get to the end of this game, unless the Mafia are very cunning and the townies continue being silly. So when the townies keep voting for me, the Mafia would vote others to keep me in, thus, some random innocent gets killed, while the townies favourite target (me) remains in the game, the townies will keep targeting me, so the Mafia safe from harms way target the others and get them out undisturbed.
Then there is the figure some one used earlier, the 3% chance that I am actually a Mafia member, then obviously me remaining the game, continued continuing would also be suspicious or give people a reason to keep voting for me while my Mafia buddies keep me safe from harms way. (Very unlikely)
At the moment, I am still classed as "Deadman Walking" so nothing I say would be used as a defence, only as a reason to get me lynched. I just have to wait and see if people lay off the heat next round and actually work together to try down the real Mafia members with logic.
