    Why are you giving vague hints? Why don't you just point them out?

    Ok, I will say it.

    Unvote: Abstain; Vote: Stephen Asen


    Reasons?:

    In the first killing, it was noticeable that some one didn't do a kill.

    In the night-phase, Olavi posted:

    Olavi got killed, some one must have thought him being absence from the game would be a thing, and didn't feel guilty killing him off as he won't be here, compared to some one who is playing.

    Andres later says:

    Some one obviously not posted their kill in for their role. Who can it be?

    I read further on, to see who posted for any clues.

    ~:Puts the pen aside listens to the grim news that has happened in his absence :~
    He posted about Death (possibly that of his victim)
    He hasn't been playing hence his absence, hence why he missed posting in his kill and possibly did not kill in the first night phase as well and just coming into the game on the last page and seeing Olavi's post and decided he would do for a victim as he will stop playing: "I know, I will target him, he is leaving anyway so won't be here".

    I would not recommend killing all the experienced people since it won't solve the problem (not all of the assassins are experienced).
    Why he might target lurkers/absent peoples opposed to those who are posting.

    ALSO: Andres posted the end of turn, after his post, when it was due to finish at 30 minutes past, which must mean all the roles were accounted for.

    Strange you say that. Look at my record and you shall see I am not that stupid to boast with it + I had plenty of time to send my supposed orders earlier (I was back for lunch;) + I doubt Andres would have been ready with the chapter so quickly (about 4-6 minutes from my post, probably less depending when he had read it).

    Second, there are 3 other ninjas + I doubt kills have anything in common with the presence of the ninjas.

    ABout Olavi: I am glad he died, because he is one of the traitors. Look at his name! Are you his mate? (I doubt the triator was Northnovas because he said his name without much thinking and after the story about the Takeda's father was revealed)

    Maybe you are, maybe you are not. But the way you twix my words is indeed suspicious and quite sufficient to make you Ninja. You simply saw that I have rushed into a discussion and decided to attack me.

    I see.

    Dear Nakayima,
    Dear Watanabe,


    Many years have passed since my ungrateful son has taken control over the Takeda clan.

    Revenge is a dish best served cold, they say.

    Messengers brought me alarming reports about our clan. My foolish son is drawing heavily on our resources and it seems like he will eventually lose the war against the Uesugi.

    You must take action, before it's too late! My son is unaware about your true loyalty.

    Bring me the head of the usurper, Takeda Shingen! Once he has been taken care of, I will take control over the Takeda clan and I will appoint the misguided Nobushige as my heir!

    Keigu,
    So one of the betrayers is named "watanabe" (like Olavi), Olavi was returning home with his sword and wakizashi before he was killed, and olavi made a sig for andres (and possibly got a role in return). The others killed were on guard duty.

    Northnovas was also called by that name. It is not wrong to presume there are multiple instances of names and the method of death could be due which character did it. The guard duty kills being that of ninja. We can only learn more about that from seeing more kills.

    That if any of them. Would be interesting to see though if I am actually right or not.

    More than two with the same name? This will be indeed weird. For me one of the traitors is finished during the night.

    The ninja's seem to kill those on guard duty while the traitors kill in the victims room. However:

    Watanabe Yumi (Olavi) entered his room. He was tired and in dire need of some sleep. He quickly undressed himself, placed his katana and his wakizashi in a corner of the room and went to bed.
    Would indicate that he was doing something that night. Combined with the others it is a reasonable assumption. Perhaps next night will reveal more.

    Sasaki, I think it is just the opposite. The murderer of Shinseikhaan and in night 1 is one person/1 team. Both stabbed in the back (we know that in the first ), that's nice for a traitor + in the first he was a samurai.

    Edited: No, they are not. The previous backstab was with shuriken, and the present one is with sword. Therefore, we have 1 traitor kill(Shinsei) and 1 ninja kill (spL1tp3r50nal1ty). They both backstab, which confused me. + look at the Ninja above Olavi's death! INMHO Olavi was the traitor!

    Actually, I went back and suspected you later. I thought there was something suspicious about Olavi, which made me go and look. Your timing was simply impeccable for stringing my theory together, which is why you was implicated. It is a big bunch of coincidences which made me suspect you.

    Really? As far as I know a single name is enough for the orders. This is not IH, please.

    Yes, it is, though it is backed by your persistent attempts to discredit me for nothing. Isn't it quite strange the way you twix a single death poem?

    You are either Ninja or traitor or over enthusaisthic samurai.

    Correct, but we don't know the kills styles just yet and true meanings of death in this early phase.
