I am here, I have just been playing the Endless Setlist III on Rock Band 3, and that has taken me most of the day.

As for El Barto, I think it's unlikely he actually has an item, I agree with the theory that he's simply trying to get someone's attention, whether it be a mafia scum buddy, or someone else he has to reach out to. I'm going to balance towards it being a mafia buddy, I've seen small games like this where there have been two mafia, but they don't know each other. They get kills every other night, but because of this, they sometimes kill their scum buddy.

Sorry Takhisis*, but my vote is going to have to be with you.

Vote: El Barto



*That's his name on another site, the one where I first encountered him.
