    ...except there's a doctor who would undoubtedly have protected Kage last night...
    True but that would have been a failed assassination attempt rather than the mafia aiming elsewhere (at least in my reading of the rules). I don't buy Prole or Kage's story. I say they're both guilty. Lynch 'em both.

    But since the mafia knew there was a doctor they wouldn't have tried to kill Kage, knowing that the failed attempt would prove his innocence.

    They can't both be guilty. Kage is the detective, we'll leave him alive for a while yet.

    But since he's almost certainly detective it would behoove us to leave him alive and let him investigate.

    Csar had just finished tallying the votes. This is the most one sided voting he had ever seen. Prole having 11 votes and Kage the so called detective 2. Prole was dragged up to the platform kicking and screaming "He's a liar. He's decieving you all don't believe him."

    After a short amount of time Prole finally calmed down. She decided that it was futile to fight the almighty CoP and succumbed to her fate. "Can I have one last cigarette, Csar?" Sure Csar pulled out a cigarette with a little red dot on it. Hardly noticible to someone who didn't know it was there. Csar gave it too her and struck a match to light it. After a minute or so Prole lay on the platform having seizures. After a little bit longer she stopped breathing and her heart failed. Prole now lay dead on the platform.

    You can all go home now. Hopefully the killings will stop and we can live in peace once again. Csar didn't like lieing to the townspeople, but he didn't want them worrying all night. He knew the killings wouldn't stop atleast not yet.

    PMs please.

    Prole had a good argument point though:

    If she's mafia, targeting Kag would've been the safe play. Was a doctor added? Possibly -- even probably. But:

    Would that guarantee the doctor would protect Kag? Not at all. I revealed as a detective in CN, people specifically called for my protection, and Doctor Silver chose a different strategy. The Doctor is quite possibly using their skill as a means of uncovering new mafia -- not playing support for the detective.

    No guarantee exists that the doctor has not already been scragged.

    I therefore think Prole was pointing up a potential weakness in the case against her (and thereby casting doubt on Kagemusha, and by extension upon Sasaki). I was still mulling over a vote change when Csar closed things down -- not that it would've helped.

    So, my inclination is still toward: Prole followeed by Kag

    I rather wait until after the kills and some discussion before forming a pact to protect someone.

    I know I've supported the idea of Kage as detective so far but I wouldn't scratch him as a suspect just yet. the only substantial argument for Kages innocence is the fact that no one else has claimed to be the detective. There are however enough reasons for the 'real' detective (if Kage's mafia) to break the silence and counterclaim.

    However:

    You hadn't accused one of us Cosa Nuova. Killing you wouldn't have proved any of us guilty. Kage has accused Prole so killing him would prove her guilt. They'd much rather sit back and lynch.

    GeneralHankerchief was walking his dog down the street, enjoying all the new Christmas lights that had been put up. He was too engulfed with the Christmas lights to notice the red dot on his chest. Luckily there was someone there to point it out too him.

    He heard someone screaming "GH Watch Out! There is a red dot on your chest! Its the Sniper!!!"

    The man threw GH what appeared to be a bulletproof vest, and GH put it on without much thought. Not noticing that it was a vest covered with C-4 explosives!

    It was too late to take off the vest though, the button was pushed, and GH went KABLOOEE!

    A laser pointer was found at the scene of the crime...


    Sigurd was enjoying whaling on his new yacht in the icy waters of Norway. He had his harpoon ready when he saw somebody in the water, drowning! Sigurd was a nice guy, so he just had to help. He jumped in and swam towards the victim. When he got close by, he realized his mistake. The drowning person was a robot. The bomb vest he wore exploded blowing Sigurd into many pieces in the icy waters.

    Alright villagers we have obviously not executed the mafia, so get voting!!!!

    Hmm, seems like our stronger people are being killed off. This does nothing to help them though and is a rookie mistake. So I would suggest going after well rookies, or at least people who haven't been mafia before.

    Thanks, Mr. Mafioso. That was definitely the most awesome way I've been killed.

    Anyway, since I am now confirmed innocent, this says a couple of things. First of all, if the mafia were trying to get me to go away, it won't work. I will now do my best to help make this game a decisive town victory. We already got one mafioso already (Prole), and I have a few ideas of who the second is.

    Also, there are a couple of reasons why Kage is innocent. First of all, the mafia are still worried about possible Doctor protection, and could also be somewhat still trying to frame him while still taking out his help. You notice that, while they left him alive, they killed Kage's greatest ally in the game (myself) in order to lessen his power.

    In the meantime, I will now enjoy the afterlife and post my suspicions later.

    Yup, I am more certain of Kage's innocence now, not only for the reasons of G-Hanky, but also because both these Mafia kills involved death by explosive vest...

    Yes, somehow they had a certain equal element which may mean that only one of our mafia buddies is left.

    Lord Sasaki suggests Jimbob, so unless someone else can come up with anything as convincing as his opinion, I will

    You sure hold a grudge don't you?

    Anyway, we're less than halfway through the game, one mafioso down, a protected cop. Jimbob is new, why not lynch him?

    This could be because he has a special role. Put yourself in the position of a first-time player: Would you be more interested in the game if you were just a townie or if you were a mafioso and could pick who to kill and how to kill them?

    Not that it's my decision, but I'd like to see Seamus investigated. His push for 'sealing the deal' and lynching Kage is either good sense or possibly a mafia attempt to kill off a detective without getting his hands dirty. I suspect the former, but I'd still like to know where he's coming from for sure.

    I may change this later, but for now:

    I will not let go the possibility of Kage being a Mafioso just yet. We shouldn’t be too comfortable in keeping Kage alive. He could be protecting his mafia buddy in this charade. Some of you base your notion of Kage’s innocence of there not being another claimant to the detective role. Maybe the detective is already dead and is therefore not permitted to make such a claim?

    True I have let the detective live while being Mafioso in previous games, but I was Godfather and would come up as innocent in an investigation.

    That we have two kills means that the mafia is not even trying to rid themselves of this threat. The doctor if not dead is not saving anyone.
