Nope, if you saw, the host was going to remove him, but he decided to vote, which prevented that.

This is the only instance of him voting in the entire game, save for selecting the Captain. So he doesn't seem to care about catching the traitors, only saving his butt. If he's a townie, then he should have been more proactive.

On N4 ATPG asked me to protect Split. On N5 ATPG requested me to protect Split again. On N6 our esteemed Captain asked me to protect Split again...

All of them were succsessful in terms of the protectee survived (meaning the protectiongroup worked), the fact that he was never attacked doesn´t matter. And now you really want to lynch me who was protecting on your orders for every single night? Either you have no clue or you need somebody to take the fall...
The fact that they were never attacked means that you were free to do whatever you wanted that night, including not actually doing the protection. There's no voting pattern to analyze, there's no in-thread discussion to analyze, there's no way to verify your alibi, because your target was never attacked.

Out of everyone in the game, you seem the least concerned about killing mafia, and you also have nothing to back up your story which is concrete. As I mentioned already, CountArach and Yaseikhaan had the exact same alibi as you. Their targets were never attacked either.

As for having no clue, I prefer to vote for someone who would provide the maximum amount of "clue". Here, it seems you're desperate for survival. And you're an enigma; no way to verify your story short of attacking your protection group. And given the apathy you've shown towards finding suspects, I don't have much of a motivation to waste time doing that.

If you're a townie, then you died in the line of duty, narrowing down suspects so we can find the true killer. Most other players in the game have some sort of trail for their actions or data suggesting their innocence. Out of all the townies to die on a blind shot, you're the safest bet. And we lose no information in the process. If you're a mafia, it's time you died.

That's how I determine who I vote for. Others are very much the same in this regard. Do we vote for someone who has a solid alibi for their whereabouts during a Maven kill? No.... how about someone with a claimed power role that we can verify? No.... what about someone who was found to be protecting or investigating during those nights? No.... so what do you have left? The pool of people not claiming power roles, no solid proof they were protecting, and no data to otherwise suggest their innocence.

And of those, whoever has the weakest voting history and the weakest contributions to the discussion, if you have a preference.

Bottom line, you meet all the criteria for someone who I'd go after based on nothing but process of elimination. The mafia have to make a better show of their innocence than this, and in the process, give up information which only tightens the noose further. You've given up the least amount of information... that is why I choose you. It makes it seem like you have something to hide. And again, your methods are very similar to CountArach's hiding method.

There's reason behind all this. In most mafia games we lynch based on intuition or gut feeling, and because we have a lack of data, that's why we do it. All normal in a mafia game. I'm not saying I couldn't be persuaded to look at someone else, but I've been given no data by investigators suggesting someone else is guilty... I've been shown no argument which is better from an evidence-based standpoint. I see a lot of finger pointing and that's all. And so I am pointing fingers, as I'm supposed to do in a game like this. Perhaps if Khazaar had done more finger pointing....
