    Could easily have been another body from the same group, I'd have thought. Grizz and his mate wouldn't have had much of a chance against those numbers, would they? Course, Sasaki could let us know how many he took with him to get the job done, for the sake of clarity.

    There were 5 of us.

    It's possible the doctor tried to protect grizz on CR's orders and failed. That might explain CR's odd request that we pursue the vigilantes rather than the mafia.

    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

    The vigilantes are the only ones who have killed anyone so far, Sasaki. A mafioso could be in your group. Killing LG and getting gold for themselves would have furthered their goals.

    Yah, this is like what disgruntled goat says but your conclusion still doesn't make sense. The mafia could be in the vig group, but there is no reason to assume they were. Not vigging LG so that he'd get lynched this round instead of them and killing someone else at night would have suited the mafia's goals just fine.

    Why act like your just roleplaying a pirate in the thread, when at night you're organizing groups? That's disingenuous.

    If you were a real pirate you'd know that pirate captains aren't put on a pedestal. They're like an nfl quarterback. One of the guys, nominal leader, they play well then great, but if they throw 5 interceptions then you toss him out unless you're the panthers.

    And yes, there's a mismatch between taking serious night actions and just playing in the thread. Disingenuous.

    Whether or not he is guilty is a different story... and your PMs certainly throw suspicion onto him.

    I do think we need more evidence or for him to show up personally and defend himself, before I decide to lynch my protection partner off the bat.

    Given the lack of any kill that is identifiable as mafia (even the solos could have been vigilantes), participation in any group last night is proof of absolutely nothing. Since they weren't killing, some of the mafioso could easily have been legitimately joining in groups.

    However, I am not overly concerned about the vig kill on LG. LG was a likely candidate for the lynch today, so his loss is acceptable under the circumstances. In addition, vigilante kills don't change a townie into a scumbag like they do in Capo, so simply participating in a vig kill isn't something worth lynching someone over IMO.

    Vote: Chaotix

    How did you get 100 gold, when a successful protection only awards a total of 30, which is then divided up amongst all the protectors?

    No, it gets 30 divided among the participants. I take chaotix's post to be a typo (should be 10). If you got 15 then someone skipped out of your group?

    And how did those who be in ye group contact ye? Did they come forward after ye asked for men to help ye kill LG? Or did ye go to them?
    Both. Also, I was going to be part a group started by someone else attacking a protected target, but we went for LG instead.

    Or he could have just read how much gold he had. Oops.
