@Gnizmo: I see what you mean... if you were mafia this little plot would make you way too high profile but now where does that leave us? We don't have much to go on.

It leaves us in a very bad boat. Zexen is being awful quiet for his normal play style, but thats not enough for me yet. The experienced players are the ones I am watching the closest. I know I am a townie, but zexen is a mystery. AngelFire jumping right to the vote though screams Kira Klan. It is an obvious attempt to dog pile and get the ball rolling on me before I can mount a proper defense. He is also new, and the plot is a rookie plot. I am waiting for his defense before voting though.

N.B. I am not attempting to insult any of our newer players. We all start off somewhere. My only defense right now is my experience though, so I have to make a point of it. I am sorry if you feel insulted by this as it is not my intention. My intention is to win, and this is my best tool currently.

While I acknowledge I've been more quiet here than normal, it's due to the special circumstances of the game. Usually, I'm more prone to lynch someone (except during the first day), then base myself on that person's role and who defended/accused him. Unfortunately, that's not possible here, because alignments aren't revealed. Therefore, we lose a big chance, and we can't "lynch to be safe", or even "lynch to confirm". We have no way of knowing what Jo was (he might have been a doctor, or even L), therefore we don't know how much we've lost with his death.

That's why I'm not willing to risk anything in this game, and play it very safely and carefully. This is diametrically opposite to the 6A, where I roleclaimed at the first accusation and assumed one of the commanding roles of the game early on, here it pays to be more careful..

In a sense, we're totally empty handed here. Applying the mafia golden rule, since there are 13 players, we can safely assume there's 3 Kiras (one real Kira and two supporters). We know there's an L, that could even have been Jo, so we don't know if he's still alive. And we don't know anything else

 

As for the accusations, I agree that Angelfire's vote could be suspicious. But then again, even if we lynch him, we can't know if we won or lost something (well, unless he's Kira himself). So, I'm really puzzled in what we should do..and I don't like it
