I know, that's the "kill it" reaction.

Because you are articulating the same sort of visceral reaction I'm getting from a sequential read, I would say that you're either a townie or imitating the townie brain wave pattern very well.

What if our mafia pair is Lazy + Pizza?
This is what I do, I try to match up remaining suspects and see if there is a link. Lazy and I have been dancing around killing each other but haven't done it yet, and for you to observe that as a possible tell also smacks of honesty. It's wrong conclusion-wise but it feels more real, like a real analysis, to me.

They're both active, not the stereotype of mafia, unless it's a super-townie gambit. In that case, today's posts make perfect sense.
I would do that as mafia. That's sort of my trademark. And yet I am not mafia with lazy, or at all.

Or it could be Lazy + Jarema, with Lazy manipulating an innocent Pizza into voting SalmonSoil because the votes aren't there to aim for Jarema.
Possible, but I don't like the idea of being manipulated. I prefer to pull the strings.

Obviously Lazy + SalmonSoil doesn't make any sense, why bus your partner with the first vote.
To look really, really like you're not partners, thus defying all analysis, would be my first thought.

Likewise Pizza+Jarema and Pizza+Salmon don't make sense.
I could and would bus a partner here, but Jarema and Salmon both know my suspicion on them is genuine and not something we planned together.

I fell you're drawing the correct conclusions from a kind of analysis I think is flawed, but I won't quarrel with you over theory.

All that taken into account, all the most likely combinations come up with one partner in common. Vote: LazyMcCrow Let's just hope that everyone has behaved "normally" as appropriate for their role.
Here is the issue. It looks like everyone alive is willing to kill Lazy.

Knowing I am innocent, means that either Lazy is being bussed hardcore and for no reason, by his partner, or we've got the wrong man.

And me saying that likely ties me to his death, because it will be assumed I am his partner. I'm not, I calls them like I sees them.

The other conclusion is that Lazy's partner is already dead. This is a hopeful conclusion and one I can buy if the game ends with his death. But I cannot believe in rainbows and sunshine and close my eyes to the more dreadful and likely possibility.

I don't think I support Lazy's lynch here, at all. In spite of our friction this game, something about the situation doesn't feel square.
