So as conclusion Nakayima= Nakajima

Or it could be a spelling mistake.

If you can conclude that Nakayima = Nakajima, here's the link that puts Nakajima = Nakashima: http://www.ancestry.com/facts/Nakash...e-meaning.ashx

Regarding TinCow and the unnamed Lord, I must correct myself. I was confusing thoughts of the murdered with the thoughts of the condemed. Atpg, Sigurd, schlin and Tosa were at peace and absorbed with little things at the moment of death. TinCow's focus was much different. His thoughts were of service to his lord.

The "and killing" seems extraneous when one is fighting, unless the killing was done while not fighting, i.e., murder. It isn't much but Andres said the hints would be subtle.

Another thing that strikes me as unusual was Louis' killing. He was sweating and very nervous before he was killed. Either he was expecting something or was hiding something that made him very anxious. However, I can't piece together what that means.

Lastly, AVSM's death was odd, almost like he was setup.

And it didn’t make sense to stand guard outside either, since the killers that were operating were clearly working from the inside and nobody could reach the yashiki through the impenetrable mountain passes.

Is there a role in mafia that would make someone more vulnerable to attack - like neutralizing a protector or protection ability?

Is there anything here, or am I chasing phantoms?

Don't follow that road. I was a lurking townie, and got killed for it.

Killed as in murdered or killed as in Wrath of God?

So 35 remain alive

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Worst case scenario: we have lynched no mafia, nor duelled any, and mafia can kill up to 6 per night. Somebody please check my arithmetic, but (minus WoG's) we therefore have 2 more day/night cycles before the mafia outnumber townies - assuming their continued success.

Bottom line = we can afford to "blow it" one more time before we must get every lych and duel correct (in killing mafia). We're closer to endGame than some may think.

We've not been given any nightime vigilante capabilities, so our only defense is the lynch and the duel.

This means that every player must be active from now on. Lurking must be severely sanctioned as not only non-productive, but counter-productive.

Lurk = die.

Contribute, or die.

Assuming everyone follows this advice (HA!) we also need the smart help from our dead players. (Thank you Gregoshi

). Astute analysis can help us find the bad guys and pick them off, one by one.

Killed because I showed my face and voted: Abstain.

Just a minor point, but maybe a subtle hint about Origins of Tincow. Kai and Shinano provinces from where majority of Takeda´s men originated were both landlocked. So if Tincow´s character came from a sea shore province. He had been raised somewhere else.

The more you try to convince yourselves that you've done the right thing by lynching me, the farther you find yourselves down the wrong path.

I don't have any idea if the names I came up with are male, female or whatnot. I don't speak Japanese

That quote has nothing to do with what Kage said. Nevertheless, Iga and Koga aren't seashore provinces either. Andres has said he doesn't reveal guilt--I don't see too much point in speculation.

Instead, we can talk about Ichigo.
