    Still listed as a player even though he withdrew. Better to lynch a potential WOG than someone who is active.

    In agreement. Vote: Lord Winter

    By the way, since I'm a noob, what's "WIFOM"?

    I'd say that lynching LW is a waste of our time. He withdrew and as such his name is probably just on the list by accident. If he is not WoGed down the track we might want to look into why later - but for now we are missing a chance at lynching a mafioso by pure luck.

    Yes, but the idea that someone who votes first leads to WIFOM I believe, thus it's neither a good basis for a vote nor is it a good basis not to vote for someone.

    This is very suspicious. Leap pipes are no longer used because they contaminate drinking water. ATPG is violating basic safety laws. If someone dies of lead poisoning, we should investigate this further.
    Vote TinCow or ATPG

    How did you know he would die of lead poisioning?

    Unvote TinCow or ATPG - silly voting should not be encouraged.

    Vote TheFlax ...random...??

    A retaliatory vote scummy? Dear me, ready to pounce are we not CA, upon a person who makes it easy for you? My vote was never meant to make sense first of all, and a retaliatory vote in the first round is meaningless, unless you mean to imply that I am an incompetent mafioso, which I am not - I am just luckless.

    Forgive me for double posting (someone save me). But heres what I got so far

    -White_Eyes, Reenk on both day and Flax on day 2 has joined the main bandwagonning. Which suggest
    the killer hates bandwagoners or just don't know how to play-> WIFOM don't even bother arguing.

    -Rythmic, ATPG and Lord winter has not voted in two rounds. Which suggest that ATPG is away. iirc Lord Winter is less active when he has a townie role. But its dangerous to assume so until he is wogged. Rythmic... I don't know where he is off to.

    -Round 2 has a lot more people who didn't make it to vote..

    -Night 3 had 3 players killed. iirc night 2 had none.. Mafia recruited a few on night 2 perhaps.

    -As Night 1 victim, Ares was killed with a gun, original mafia seems to have silencer pistols. Knife killer could be either new comers or vigilante.

    - All killers are.. rather funny. I guess thats just Andres adding some flavors in the write up.

    - Reenk was voted by Jolt & El Diablo on first day. The two didn't vote him on the second.

    - .... Argh. Not much clues yet

    Ok, so it seems I was killed by a knife whereas every other kill has occurred with a gun.

    Keep in mind that YLC sent me this OM which I revealed earlier:

    At first I didn't really believe him, and thought he was bluffing, but the different style of kill with the issue of the Mafia actually wanting to kill me lends credence to a theory of me being murdered by YLC.

    A good fallback plan is for you go ahead and lynch him tonight if your other leads do not show up. Perhaps give him a chance to explain. Maybe he is a poorly guided vigilante who could still serve some use to the town.

    You seriously think that was me pouncing on you? I am merely pointing out that in the first round, where we have 0 evidence, someone who responds to a vote on himself by voting for the person who voted for him is creating evidence for us. Also this post of yours seems to only have the defence of "I am not incompetent enough to do that" - thus throwing up a WIFOM situation.

    No, but I am being antagonistic, no?

    So, by your statement, you ARE saying I am an incompetent mafioso by creating a situation in which I would present evidence that would eventually and possibly soon, lead to my own demise and thus be a detriment of my own team?

    Also, I am not defending myself, I am trying to argue against your own argument - their is a difference. And there is only a WIFOM me situation if your willing to create one. One can create WIFOM out of anything if one wishes, I know, I do it very easily, almost unconsciously. And that, CA, is WIFOM only if you continue to insist on looking at it that way.

    The town will make a significant step towards victory if they vote for Tevashszat who has a minor but still important role in the plot against the town.

    However, Reenkaten has no need to vote to eliminate someone seeing as he could simply do away with Tevashszat in a much more direct fashion. Rather he wants to showcase his immortality and votes: Reenk Roink, courteously.

    Do not worry Mafia, Reenk-sin will bestow a favor upon you this upcoming round to even things out.

    And Reenk is just your easy vote, townies are voting without thought, if andres is a crafty game host he'll have destroyed towns poor strategy before long, hope you don't mind me interfering, but i'd give reenk a chance, having said that i wouldn't vote tevash yet until you have more evidence either way (also andres i am allow to contribute still aren't i?)
