    honestly guys, it's a little early to be casting votes. at this point in the "day," i think we should recognize our suspicions and argue until we're at least 90% sure.

    Welp, you can kill me, but it's still the same waste of a day. I will props the mafia though for killing off who I thought was one of them. Props.

    If the reasons for my votes are simply that I didn't want a no lynch... that's dumb. That's the only way we can win is by not doing no lynches. However, I will say Hyuge was one of my most suspected but aiming at me shows me this- she wants to win. Whether it be by a mafia related "kill the guy who's getting close" or if her reasons for voting me were genuine and she's a townie. That said, I know I'm a townie and I know mafia members know I'm a townie. Whether you know I'm a townie or not is to be seen later. However, I will not waste a vote mirroring suspicion.

    What I will do is point out that the people not voting are the reason we didn't get majority as well as the people not paying attention. We got a no lynch. We've solved one mystery of who wasn't mafia by ourselves. We should call out some of these inactive players, as we did before. That was a good strategy that didn't pan out because he made a life saving move and voted for himself. I say we call out the inactive people and cut some anchors, maybe we'll find a mafia member in the process.

    That said, I've also gained suspicion of Jiku. It's just an innocent enough tactic that we wouldn't suspect it, but it's also throwing off who we can vote out.

    There really is no too early or too late.

    I do not have... enough to back up any suspicions guys... I'm just, unsure and lost. But... I won't vote yet... I'll just, wait around and see.

    Honestly, not enough to make a case. Just hunches. The two I mentioned I suspected during the second day were Hyuge and Senpai, and Senpai I finally got a case to vote for her. Turns out I was wrong. I don't want to cast serious suspicion on someone who's actually playing if I can't make a case.[DOUBLEPOST=1397259906][/DOUBLEPOST]Addendum to what I just said: I'd rather cast out the silent suspicious types who aren't aiding us at all than someone who's helping the townies.

    @DigitalAtlas but yes i think that's a good idea. As evident from the results of the last day, we need some form a consensus or clear direction. At least then we would be working together rather than against each other, and perhaps make it easier to tell who among us is mafia.
    And I'm not going to be the one to call them out, last time I tried that we almost killed an important player, or at least one I'm not willing to lynch if they are who they say they are.

    Ah, I see.

    Here's the thing though, you voted for Senpai. Senpai was not lynched. No one was lynched. But Senpai did die overnight due to the mafia. You had your sights set on lynching her, but it didn't work out in a community vote, but if you were mafia then you did get a chance to get rid of her. And who knows, maybe you thought Senpai was a role like the doctor or the detective, and you wanted to get her gone.

    It may be a hunch, but in then end, I just want to get a name cycling. Sorry, but I'm voting for DigitalAtlas

    Vote: Cstar

    I just have a feeling. Dunno if I'll stick with this vote the whole day, but it's what I'm feeling right now.

    What basis would there be for having that suspicion? No one is going to come forward and say that they're the doctor or the detective (unless they're trying to save themselves apparently) so there is nothing to inform that, especially considering Senpai said very little. And there's nothing to set her apart from the other quiet ones to draw that suspicion. And if he was mafia he wouldn't have voted for her, he would have voted for someone else to try to get us to lynch another townie and then kill her at night. two birds one stone. At least, that makes more sense if you're the most influential person in the game and mafia. I don't think he's mafia.

    And, just throwing this out there, Bite the Dust did not die last night despite coming forward as the apparent doctor. Not making a judgement based on that, just making sure we're all aware of it.

    Could you explain this feeling because I'd love to know.

    I do not have a basis, but does anyone really have a solid basis for anything? I probably won't stick with him anyway. I don't think I ever keep my vote through the entire day cycle.

    I was talking about the basis for him suspecting Senpai of being the doctor, but okay.

    Honestly, no. It's just an impression. I'm trying to think of logical reasons, but coming up blank. I do plan to go back through the thread and try to discern any suspicious things from anyone; like I said, it's a tentative vote. But I'm gonna go with my vibes on this one for now.

    I do not have a real basis to be completely honest. I was just speaking out of no where. I did not say that I believed he thought she was the doctor...

    sorry give me a moment....

    Mkay, we have some votes for me... Time to actually plea.

    Tell me, what have I done to harm the efforts of the game and the townies? In the first day, I provided reason and analysis. In the second day, I mentioned that we should call someone out who's inactive, who you almost killed and I didn't even vote for. I voted for one of the people I felt was suspicious, while pushing your efforts forward. Today I wish to unite us and give us consensus so we can control the vote, yet I did not dictate who we vote for. I did not try to control the vote and put us on track of people I know are townies like someone in my position would do if they were mafia, rather I left it to all of you and just stated that's what our goal should be. Now let me say this... Even if I was mafia, are my efforts and paragraphs aiding the town population as a team or hindering? Are my actions not very much what is needed out of a town player? Have I jeopardized our attempts at getting a mafia member?

    I don't intend for that to save me, but we have inactive players hurting us who may just be the mafia twiddling their thumbs while we fight. And because of their silence, we can't get a vote going because they're scrambling results. I implore you, if we cast votes to soft-lynch a suspicious non-active member we bring to the light, we'll see the mafia turn up. Whether they kill me off or they come out to make it so we can't get a majority of votes is the mystery here, but they'll show. I'd rather make them show.

    Addendeum: Here's a fun factoid too... If I'm mafia and the mafia are here and posting, then why haven't they tried to take the heat off me? Think about it, we have three votes on me already and no one has stepped out to try and sway the ground or get the crowd's view off me. If I speak like this here, imagine what I'd say to the mafia if I were among them. They'd see me as a valuable player informing them of what balance to walk in the game.

    So, I know I have no basis for my suspicion, but since at least one other person seems to share my feelings on the matter, I'm just gonna throw it out there: I'm a bit suspicious of Cstar. Again, I have no reasons on the matter, but if someone else is thinking it too, it's at least worth mentioning. Especially as DigitalAtlas, whatever his alignment may be, is right in that we can't have a No Lynch this time. So, is anyone else besides Tale and I suspicious towards Cstar? Nothing against you, Cstar. Loved the DW moment, btw.

    No clue about cstar at the moment, but my gut still tells me to suspect Jiku. While cstar, Jay or even tale may have some part to play in the mafia's side of things, they seem to be helping the townies out for now, so it wouldn't exactly be wise to cut off an asset, even if they are two-timing us.

    Still not voting, but I figured I'd toss that out there for consideration.

    Yes, I've pointed out that, regarding Jiku, if she is mafia we should not lynch her yet. I have my doubts about her alignment, it's impossible to tell based on her posts alone, but since she's playing the game so passively there's no harm in keeping her in the game for now. Someone has to be the last mafia alive and if she's mafia it should be her as things stand now. We should try to root out the inactive and ones influencing others first.

    We need to stop and think for a moment. Mafia or not, Digz has been helpful to the group by offering insight and direction. People like this should be kept until the end because we need that kind of human resource to keep us sharp and focused).

    Anyway, I have all I need to affirm the first person on my list:
    Vote: Bite The Dust

    After that last Day Phase, I feel it in my gut that he does not have the Town's best interests in mind. Everything about that whole fiasco was just shady and not to mention unhelpful, and all of it just to save his own hide (nothing personal).[DOUBLEPOST=1397271254][/DOUBLEPOST]I could kick myself in the *** for not making it in time to be the lynching vote.

    (again, nothing personal)

    Really, like I said before, I was just messing with you guys because I was pretty sure I was getting offed. I did not expect my little comment to make things turn out the way they did.

    As for my own vote, I'll hold off on it for now because I'm not entirely sure on anything. I will definitely have a vote by the end of this day, but for now, I'll just wait and see how things unfold.
