    If you think you know that the mafia will continue with two kills once one slave is dead, I'd be interested in knowing where you learned that.
    Me too, I was under the impression that if one slave died, the Ancient can't do a night kill. So then wouldn't there only be one kill if there is one slave?

    A vote with no reason is arguably preferable to no vote at all.

    Sasaki (1): Niklas
    Niklas (1): Renata
    Beefy (1): pever
    Pizza (4): Jolt, TS, Ibn, atheotes
    YLC (1): Romanichine
    Beskar (3): YLC, Beskar, Beefy
    TinCow (1): Sasaki
    Double A (1): General Hankerchief
    The Stranger (1): TinCow
    TheFlax (1): Pizza

    Not voting: lots, including TheFlax

    What? The setting has nothing to do with whether or not there is a role that kills everyone when lynched.

    So? All that means in that there is a chance of there being a joker, or did I miss a post explicitly saying it wasnt a joker?

    Here is a quote from Flax, that can be seen in my profile page

    I'm horrible in large games, I simply cannot find the will to post only to be drowned by a sea of other people.

    I don't want to indulge Pizza yet by voting for him right now. The reasoning against Niklas seems better than some of the other arguments I've read.

    Vote: Niklas

    I think that's specifically NOT in the rules:

They will become his slaves. As long as his slaves are alive, the Ancient will not kill.

    Each slave will be capable of killing one townie. When both slaves are dead (and only then), the "Ancient" will be able to kill one townie a night.
    my bolding. So IF pizza is a slave (I don't think he is - he talks more like a townie this game, IMO), murders should reduce to 1 per night upon his lynch.

    This game's been a bit quieter than most large ones, thus far.

    Maybe it's because there are only three mafia to start with (Ancient + 2 slaves) so there isn't a lot of plotting going on behind the scenes?
    Doesn't TinCow norally post more?

    I get suspicious of low-poster/lurkers, having been in games where they spring up suddenly at end-game and win. slashandburn is low on the list of posters. Is he one of the "RL takes me away" guys? Until I know:

    vote: slashandburn

    Slash is constantly WOG'ed. Almost every single game this year I believe.

    If he doesn't get WOG'ed then he's mafia.

    OK then, I'll leave him for WOG-bait. Thanks for the tip. So, moving up the list of quiet ones:

    given that he's such wogbait he also makes a poor contender for being a henchman, and Andres would probably avoid him like the plague before making him the godfather.

    No I just happen to think both you and Tincow are excellent lynches. Sadly, no one is listening to me regarding you, mister "Large games make me drown in posts and feel lost" but all of a sudden you're posting and replying right away to people over the course of more than one hour which is highly uncharacteristic of you.

    You'll always have a special place here in my heart though. It pains me to even have to accuse you.

    For the record, atheotes' quotes comes from a while back, when he invited me to Capo III (the last one was III, right?) and I had just come out of several large games with a lot of behind the scenes action. Shadow Fort was likewise similar and I had no idea what was going on. This one, like it was mentioned by Greyblades, is easier to follow. (Or so it seems at the moment.) Also, I read every single posts in the large games I play, I'm often very up to date, I just don't usually feel I have much to add.

    Just did a quick skim through, I think ATPG's request to be lynched is just a easy wagon for mafia.

    Methinks better to just random lynch someone rather than let the voting stand so inconclusively with less than 5-6 votes a person, hardly a clear majority with 3 mafia after all
