Hm, looking back on it, it's not great English. My bad.

What I'm saying is, you're gathering all the information about who is acting scummy, identifying potential mafiosi, then discarding it and voting for somebody totally random. In addition to myself, you laid the first vote and started bandwagons upon Shlin, Secura and Ibn; and that's just this round. This scattergun approach isn't productive for us at all, as we end up accusing townies who then have to explain why your random vote is stupid, whilst the mafiosi either lurk their way to victory or hide behind wild accusations disguised as "debate".

It's called looking for mafia. If I get a town enough feel for someone, I switch to someone else instead of pushing on and lynching them. The idea is that eventually I accuse a mafioso, or can narrow it down by process of elimination ;)

If you are looking, then it would be helpful if you could state "I do not think X is mafia because of Y", rather than just leaving it hanging. We have no idea whether you still have suspicions about any of the players you have accused, and as there are no pro-town roles, you have to play a game like this in out in the open.
