Besark, this was... a remarkable explanation.

The words of TinCow worth considering, though. They can mean much, but they can also mean nothing.

My feeling exactly. Is he a gameroom-veteran who should have known better?

Well.. Tosa seemed genuinely surprised... and from what i have gathered he is new to Mafia just like me... I thought i would be surprised if i had a role and my kill was blocked (provided role-blocking/protection was unknown)...
Also, were the role assignments done by Andres or is it random too?

If it was assigned by Andres i wouldnt be surprised if he gave roles to a few experienced players and one or two new players who he might know well.... i dont think i am getting anywhere with this
so lets just say i voted on a hunch

~~~ Swords in the Moon ~~~
Day 4 - Conclusion.
Hour of the Monkey
" A freezing winter
" The sharp cold stops living things
" Branches are leafless
Saruwatari Ryou (TosaInu) looked at the freshly written poem. He sighed. It wasn’t what he wanted it to be. He hadn’t really thought about it before, since he had never expected to be ordered to commit seppuku. Who would have thought that clearing his throat after days of silence would make him a suspect of murder?
Saruwatari sighed again and he looked around him. The sound dampening snow and the silence created by the freezing cold made him feel at peace. The sky was dark blue and the first twinkling stars became visible. Stars, inviting his soul to join them.
The man in the white kimono smiled at the stars. Surely, so far away, there would only be silence and peace. Silence and peace, like on a cold winter evening.
Finally accepting his karma, he picked up the clean and sharp knife in front of him. He opened his kimono and took a final deep breath. He pierced the knife through the skin of his belly, right into his inner organs. The sudden loss of blood made him feel light in the head and for a moment, there was only peace and the beauty of the silent winter evening. Before the pain could reach him, the blade of his kaishakunin struck mercifully.
Lord Takeda nodded respectfully towards the body.
Oguri Hatsuharu (Jolt) and Saruwatari Izumi (Beaver) were watching the scene. When somebody ordered them to come forward to carry the body, a rock above them fell down, bringing with it an avalanche of snow, ice and rocks. It took several hours to dig them up and when the digging samurai finally reached the bodies of their two comrades, they were already dead.

The mysterious man nodded silently.
Kiyonaga continued: "Allthough an excellent general on the field of honor, the Tiger is pretty predictable when it comes to his habits during the Winter season. He will probably spend his time in his yashiki (mansion) in Kofu, only surrounded by his best men. Bring me his head and you will be rewarded generously."
Kato Danzo bowed. "So it will be, Kiyonaga-sama."
The ninja master left the tent without making a sound.

Sasaki - what was the point of this post?

His character name isn't that of the Ninja master, therefore, it isn't him.
I do want to know who saved him though.. as in, was it a pro-town or an anti-town role.
Rhyfelwyr 21:01 04-27-2009
Fine this is my role PM:
Rhyfelwhyr
Date Bontenmaru – veteran samurai
Konichi wa, Date-san
You are one of the chosen samurai to join your master to his yashiki. This is a great honor and you are very grateful to your master.
You have been in many battles for him and you have the scars to prove it.
As a samurai, you live to serve and there is no greater honor then to die in the service of your master.
You will protect Takeda Shingen-sama with your life.
Battle rating: ???
Abilities:
- During the day, you can vote for the players that you consider to be suspicous, as explained in the rules in the first post of the game thread.
- You can also challenge one other player to a duel during the day. If the kami of the mountain decide that you have to duel, then that duel will be fought at sunrise, right before the start of the next day.
- During the night, you sleep.
Gokouun o inorimasu (good luck)!
I scored out the battle rating since I'm not supposed to post that, right?
Sasaki Kojiro 21:04 04-27-2009
My name was revealed in the writeup--and it wasn't kato danzo.
Sasaki Kojiro 21:05 04-27-2009
You shouldn't have posted it at ALL.
TinCow seriously has to die next round.
atheotes 21:07 04-27-2009
Looks like I made a mistake... if i had abstained from voting it could have been a tie...

Apologies to TosaInu
FactionHeir 21:08 04-27-2009
An h too much in your role name and a missing part at the end?

Known fact – somehow I cannot see it.
Never played with Beskar before, but you’re either a hyperactive town, or an incrediblely daring and audacious Mafioso.
Sasaki’s protection looks mostly likely to be contributed by the doctor/protector. The write-up was too ambiguous to tell which party attacked Sasaki, the only certain murder committed by the ninjas was Reenk’s kill, the rest could had either been done by the traitor or the Ninjas, while Louis appeared to have been killed by the deranged, gory SK.
LittleGrizzly 21:10 04-27-2009
Yeah it would be alot better to keep some back.... im sure TinCow would know its better to have a little by little rather than clear one suspect completely..
FoS TinCow
Edit: I would have guessed mine and reenks kills would be linked...
Yaropolk 21:28 04-27-2009
I think both LG and Reenk Roink were killed by Ninjas, if one was under suspicion then both were.
Wow! Still not over? Still so many villagers left!

Unlike
Sasaki I don't call for your lynching next round - yet. But you, a vet player who knows the ins and outs of role reveals and their timing, have some explaining to do. In my humble opinion.
Re:
Sasaki's save, if
you his protector read this, please contact
CountArach and reveal your good intentions immediately. Failure to do so will bring maximum suspicion upon him, and likely get him lynched soon, presuming by your silence that he is mafia.

Sasaki is being reactionary. In a game this large, it has to be assumed that the mafia have had access to townie role PMs for a long time now. Before I requested that he post his role PM, there were already statements that revealing that would prove nothing for this very reason. Under these circumstances, complaints about a townie role PM being posted is little more than crying wolf. Sasaki has been convinced that I'm scum for days now. His opinion is clouded and he's seeing mafioso in everything I do.
I saw Rhy as a very decent suspect. I pressured him to get information that I thought we be useful in weighing his guilt. I apologize if some people think my methods were faulty, but I regret nothing and I'll do it again if I think it's the right move.

And despite all of the above, it's still of no harm for a potential lynchee to post a role PM if he's just a townie.
Nice...nice.
And TinCow--you did two other things in this post. You associate the criticism made against you with me, and then claim that my opinion is clouded. This ignore that several other people find you suspicious and accused you of the same thing, and that I completely ignored you today and went after tosa. I haven't even challenged you. So no, revisionist history is not a defense.
Reenk Roink 05:11 04-28-2009
It just sucks when Sasaki starts with this on you. Good luck TinCow, you will need it.
Also, now that Master is suspicious of you, so I too am suspicious of you.
I wonder if the Mafia try to kill Sasaki again.
Prince Cobra 07:54 04-28-2009
I think
Beskar is far more suspicious than TinCow-Sasaki. Once we finish off this snake, we can resolve the debate over TinCow-Sasaki.
Quintius... hyperactive member whose purpose is not to find out the truth but to destroy his victim. Look at his record, his bandwagoning, his arrogance, his twisting of words. Why did he vote for Tosa? No comment...

You are just upset with me, I am not suspicious at all. TinCow will be next rounds bandwagon anyway.

Upset? Of course I am. Unfortunately, I am the only one who survived your bandwagoning. Why did you kill Tosa, ATPG, shlin (the latter is undertsandable although I am still sceptic)?
Until Sasaki is confirmed non-guilty by Takeda Shingen, I am
against the nomination of either Sasaki or TinCow
for the next day.
