OK looking back Jolt was a bad example, sorry, what struck me about you was your voting post contained no other words. I hope you get my point. A random vote from a townie is better than an abstention. If you're town you have no reason to abstain.
@ Andres...
Geeze. You're the one voting for me on a hunch. I'm not accusing you.
My point about the vigilante kill stands. Saying that your alibi is worthless is not the same as directly accusing you of being mafia. We cannot accept the alibis of people saying "I protected X with A, B and C" because in Capo there are wise guys who will want to form new mafia families. They do this by working together to vig kill people and they can turn around together and say "We protected X" and nobody can confirm or deny that. These "alibis" are not alibis at all.
I don't even accuse you of being mafia, and yet you are reacting. This is after voting for me 'on a hunch'...
Well I've not got better to work with, and as you might have guessed I'm not a fan of abstentions.That's really bad reasoning for voting somebody.

Tally as of now
Id like to ask, whats our reason for voting Craterus? seeing as hes in the lead.
being a rookie I'm going to let this day play out a bit more before I put in a real vote.
Vote: Abstain
They knew which was the move to make. They had to kill TS, because he was organizating a protection group. w&f and Reenk knew it. Maybe our director is behind the scenes?
vote:w&f
What did you do last night?
Names, secret names
But never in my favour
But when all is said and done
It's you I love
Vote: Askthepizzaguy
Because he feels lonely without a vote. True, it's random, but at least I am actually voting, even when I do not really agree with any of the cases currently *glares at the 16 abstaining*
Okay, people are wanting votes where there is very little to vote (yes I know first round and all).
But one kill from an alleged 5 mafia families? What are the mafia doing?
There seemed to be a lack of attacks to be honest.
I got my night order result and inconclusive as no attack was made.
So to go along with Caius
Unvote abstain Vote Reenk what did you do last night?

My guess is that the mafia are trying to avoid investigation - criminal beats guilty, at least.

Why did the chicken cross the road?
So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

Based on a quick read-through I would err on the side of The Stranger's killer being a serial one. While Myrdraal makes an excellent point in that it could well be a mafioso attempting to sow confusion at an early stage, I feel events that strange have to have some root cause (ie: serial killer will have a particular modus operandi and murder victim profile that he will fit...). The poetic reference to The Stranger being (in part) the author of his own demise, would also suggest this. I'd suggest keeping an eye out for any similar killings over the coming nights.
I'm going to Vote: Beefy, for his lucky escape. While there was no obvious agent of protection, the mention of his fedora automatically produces suspicion on my part...
I'd also wonder how a 'vigilante group' would have any basis for forming at such an early stage...

We have not to fear anything, except fear itself.
Ibant obscuri sola sub nocte per umbram
perque domos Ditis vacuas et inania regna:

We should keep in mind that detectives also wear fedoras too.
When it occurs to a man that nature does not regard him as important and that she feels she would not maim the universe by disposing of him, he at first wishes to throw bricks at the temple, and he hates deeply the fact that there are no bricks and no temples

note the 1951. I am pretty sure everyone and their mother had a fedora.
@ Gaius Scribonius
Whilst beefy's fedora may have been a subtle hint at his role I'm more inclined to believe that it was more for write-up effect than any other reason

ATPG posted too fast, so I figured I'd retally for him.
