    I made a post yesterday before going to bed, and it's not there anymore.

    Tullianium: Double A

    The N1 attack on Cicero does not make sense, he was invulnerable. Only someone not following the game could have done this, and Double A fits the profile.

    This is a good point, but I have to ask... what if someone attacked Cicero purposefully to throw suspicion onto players who may not be paying attention?

    I accept the nitpicking. Of course I meant Cicero.
    Keeping my vote where it is, and as Tullianum. I don't know how much to think of exile.

    Far-fetched but possible... I guess, but would the mafia lose a kill on purpose to make it look like someone isn't paying attention? It was night 1, they'd have to be on serious pressure to come up with a frame like this (or otherwise, why do it at all?)

    Double A and Diamondeye were leading the votes on Day 1, so it would make sense only for Diamondeye, but he's also been acting like he's not following the game (~ start of day 2, DE asked to be recalled when he was never exiled). It doesn't make sense for either pressured player to act like this, waste a kill to remove the pressure because both can be seen as not following the game anyway.

    I don't think it's a frame, but maybe there's another explanation why they attacked Cicero.

    Even then, it would still be a dumb move. As there is no benefit in doing such a move.

    I voted Diamondeye because he's been acting weird since the begining.

    First vote after the game started, Diamondeye votes for Sasaki. That's a sound vote, against Catiline, but apparently he doesn't know Catiline cannot be lynched yet.

    Csargo/Cicero voted for him, and Diamondeye counterattacks with an OMGUS vote. Voting for Cicero is odd, we know Cicero cares about the Republic. And I think there's no way Diamondeye could not have known that Csargo was Cicero given he knew Sasaki's identity.

    3rd post: We see DE saying that this is his first game as a townie in a while. It's very unclear if he's trying to convince us that he is townie, or if he's really a townie. Could be 50/50 really. The whole comment is odd though. It's a dangerous thing to say, and a townie could have thought twice before making this comment, as it could bite you back later in the game. As a mafia trying to save your life, the comment makes sense, even if it let you live one more day and at that point, DE was ahead of the tally and could have been trying to save his life.

    On day 2, he looks like he doesn't know about not being exiled?

    I don't get how you can think that, Diamondeye. Even your explanation (having played Civ V too long) does not justify why you thought you were exiled. To believe this, you would need to read somewhere that you were exiled. The writeup had no such thing, and the final tally had you tied in votes with Double A. There's no reason why you would accept this idea. You would have read the writeup, check if you received a PM saying you were exiled / and looked what being exile means etc..

    I can't find any reason why you thought you were exiled! This must be an act.

    He's acting like a baffled townie who isn't paying close attention to the thread, but I think he's overplayed it. And there's something about the earnestness of his posts that reminds me of other times he's been mafia (Parasite: Earthbound, for example).

    [...]
    ^ Winston picked on that but he was killed immediately. Now this could be a frame attempt or it could be a bold move by the mafia.

    Another reason why I moved my vote from Double A to Diamondeye is because I don't know when the deadline is, and having a triple way tie (DE 2, Double 2, GE 2) is not a good idea. We cannot lose another lynch because of a tie.

    Untullianium; Tullianium: Diamondeye

    I suspect he also posted that message about God Emperor as well.

    He was already one of the two i suspected and Romanic's reasoning is sound... So...

    Exillium: DiamondEye
    RIP Tosa, I can't believe you are gone, but we will never forget you

    I guess people can't remember how I play when I'm town. Please, for the sake of our chances of victory, don't think I'd act like this as mafia. You have plenty of examples; As Mafia, I stay as low as possible until the end game.
    I know this is WIFOM, and Romanic's arguments are good; I am acting different than I'm used to. But I've been mafia in all the latest games you have to base my behaviour off.

    The only thing I hadn't already realized in that post was that my OMGUS was against Cicero... I just voted that way because it looked to me like Csargo was pouncing on me to get an easy lynch...
    Unvote; Exilium: Joooray. Perhaps we can exile me now, then?
