I think we can assume that Chimpiyang is innocent as he had a long absence between the 2nd of May and his last post.

Yeah, but he's not posted anything in 20 hours since his "return". That's not helping the cause.

We are down to the end game and there is a surprising lack of interest in the game from too many of the players that are still alive. Or so it seems. Is this normal? What am I missing about strategy at this point of the game that would account for the silence?

Well Chimpyang had a five day absence without logging on. Either it is an elaborate scheme or he is innocent. My bet is on the latter.

It's not necessarily a lack of interest, keep in mind the ninjas also have some considerable voting power in the end game and a lack of discussion means more confused townies, more wrong lynches etc. In other words, they'll probably win anyway because most of the discussion at the moment looks to me like "I'm right!" - "No, I'm right!" - "No, you're all wrong and I'm right!" with hardly anything to go by, if you're going to believe everyone who says they're innocent then we probably have eliminated the ninjas already.

That's the funny thing about Beskar saying he is innocent and then calling that evidence, he has a bit more of a case since BG's list so I think he is being framed now as he caught suspicion before and is generally acting a bit annoying but that alone doesn't make him guilty, if he had his friends kill everyone on the list except himself, that would have been an incredibly stupid move but here we are at vodka in front of my horse again as they could have calculated exactly that, blablabla, still a daring move though so he might deserve to win if that was the plan(and they're most likely going to win now anyway as noone has an idea and everybody is/plays confused, discussions are being ignored etc.).

Whether anyone is acting normal or not according to Sasaki I wouldn't go by that, I personally remember Ichigo as one of the two most active players in mafia games and especially Kage would not show anything as he is one of the best mafiosi/ninjas around. I'm not sure about dutch_guy but I remember people saying he'd be more active towards the end which doesn't really seem to be the case here, yet sasaki says he is acting normal.

Some of the others I've never played mafia games with before so it's hard to say much about them, could be anything, hard to say anything about them for me.

So in the end I'd say everybody who tries to focus on Beskar, except Sasaki, is somewhat supicious, lynching Ichigo might be a good idea for now.

**Beskar** · 05-09-2009, 00:03

The Mafia plan is simple, they will kill all the innocents bar myself, then when I am the only innocent left, they will go "lol, try to get out of this now" and any other innocents would just join the bandwagon against me and ensure they win. That is the Mafia tactic and the reason I am still in the game. It is thanks to people who are on the dimmer side of the light bulb which are obsessed with lynching me which allows it to happen in the mafia's favour. In other words, Mafia-role want to purposely have suspicions against me and use me as their scape-goat.

Magical.

That is how I have been in the game so long and it is what I purposely played to in the beginning. Hell, I even said it near the beginning, go and read it.

Exactly.

**Sasaki Kojiro** · 05-09-2009, 00:10

That's why we should lynch rhyfelwyr today.

The bolded bit is the reason "people... are obsessed with lynching (you)...".

On my personal Kindergarten Report Card, you get

A+ for participation
F- for "works well with others", and
D for mafia-play*

*unless it turns out that you are Mafia, then A+ for mafia-play. Brilliant deception via annoying participation! A very risky strategy, well played. Also A+ for 'works well', assuming the 'others' are your fellow maf's.

I'm no longer a live townie, so my vote has little weight, but I urge a lynch on Rhyf, and that GH duel Beskar.

**Beskar** · 05-09-2009, 02:12

Yeah, have the confirmed innocent duel another one. Great logic.

Husar when was the last time you played a mafia game with me?

Not since you turned into a quiet shadow of your former self.

**FactionHeir** · 05-09-2009, 11:24

GH voting rhyf and then unvoting to revote dutch seems a bit scummy.

**Beskar** · 05-09-2009, 12:50

However, I have faith in the list, because I know it was right for me and if BQ really did say the response was identical for GH, then I will believe him.
