    In this case the misspelling is most probably to create an accent and hence I don't believe we should count it. Has anything else been counted as misspelt from this mafioso?

    Vote: Sasaki

    There is little good reason for your decrease in posting. You're count is way down, and many of your votes have been unhelpful, often unhelpful with either little or no reasoning.

    Examples like this, this, this, this, this. Of note for this one is that he doesn't ever actually do as he said and clarify or discuss the vote or issues.
    Here, Sasaki repeats his FoS of TinCow, but again does not offer any reasoning or clarification for it.Here he once again does a FoS of TinCow but doesn't offer reasoning. Here he states he even can't recall any actual specific post that actually struck him as suspicious. Also this



    Non-contributory posts like this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this


    Serious posts:
    This, this, this, this, this, this, where he finally offers the faintest of a glimpse of his reasoning and his activity, but frankly, to me, this isn't all that acceptable. Hell, my state's flooded and I can find time to do this post.
    This, and this, where he only finally offers some kind of serious reason for all of his previous votes and "FoS'".Here he offers a further vote for TinCow for the tie.This and this regarding letters.



    Basically, Sasaki's been active enough to avoid major suspicion, but has most often been unhelpful in his votes and commentary. His activity isn't particularly explainable, and his behavior, for someone who is so experienced at mafia, is unacceptable, and has done almost no good for the town thus far; there were still two different killers for the night phase; the drummer and the man with the broken nose. This would rather indicate to me that TinCow was innocent. Sasaki's efforts to help the town have thus far been mostly subpar; I think its attributable to being guilty.

    I agree that Sasaki is acting strange, but it just doesn't make sense. He's better than this. I guess lynch him for being strange but I just have a hard time believing that he would act so strange as mafia. When mafia, the guy is as cool as a cucumber.

    So, lynch Sasaki if you guys can't think of anyone better but don't take your eyes off of Khaan or FH.

    There are far too many links in that post.

    Some games I lead the charge some I don't. Think I got lynched as a townie in mafia VI (?) for posting less. It happens.

    By the way makaikhaan, you should know that the "different killers" in the writeup doesn't indicate squat. Any one of the lynchees could have been mafia, the writeups wouldn't have been changed.

    Let us turn the wrath of the town on Kommodus and FactionHeir.

    I believe you to be wrong. I think it was back in an earlier GH mafia when one mafia killer was pale-skinned, and after one mafia was lynched in the next kills it was written that both victims were killed by a pale skinned man.

    I would have thought you'd know this...

    Perhaps the town should turn its attention on Sasaki as well. He'd be just the type to try a new strategy when he's mafia.

    The mispronounced words may be due to the earlier broken nose.

    I should not need to note, of course, that people who bandwagon one candidate instead of spreading votes around evenly on several candidates are very likely to be mafia and should be hung themselves.

    Vote: makaikhaan

    I don't really care if makaikhaan or Sasaki gets lynched, either of them are good choices.

    That choice is left up to the mafia. We've never known before if we've lynched a mafioso.

    Can someone please make a tally of all missing (not added or misplaced) letters we got so far and then another with the other categories included so we can toy with it?

    We should have a sentence by now I think.

    I agree with the focus on Sasaki. Early on, the lack of time excuse seemed plausible for his radical change in behavior. That doesn't seem to hold true anymore though. I could very easily see a mafioso Sasaki intentionally going for an overly suspicious posting style in the hopes of deterring votes with a WIFOM. Better the Sasaki you know than the Sasaki you don't. This Sasaki we don't know.

    Good point; reviewing your posts, it was just a single-time excuse for being away for a single weekend. For some reason I erroneously thought it was a generalized thing, which it was not. This makes you even more suspect, as you've simply adopted a radically different style of play without any reason for it whatsoever.
