Alright, I see what you were saying about Cone now, prof. Having both a doctor and a bodyguard on the same team would still leave the possibility of a broken game, however, unless literally every mafia had an ability that could neutralize the combo in some way. Which might be a possibility, actually. Either way, my suspicions on Cone have dropped enough that I think there are better targets now.
I really don't get what Wright is doing, but it does seem like he's claiming he has some sort of evidence to help town. Still seems really dodgy, but perhaps he just doesn't want to make himself a mafia target. Since he's claiming evidence, if he's town he must be an investigative role, I would think. He was really obsessed with Cone yesterday with very little evidence, perhaps he has a daytime investigative role? Probably not, since the only useful daytime investigative role would be rolecop, and doctor certainly isn't a suspicious role. So I still think his obsessive suspicion of Cone before there was any evidence is just really weird at best. But his posts did seem like he was trying to roleplay, so maybe there's a flavor explanation that will come apparent as time goes on. There's a lot of maybes here, so I'm not placing Wright as either town or mafia yet.
As for Sparks, his talk about vests is really confusing. So far I've got that yesterday RCT pretty much explicitly said he had a vest. Sparks said he was trying to entertain the idea of a second mafia faction. The simplest explanation for how there could be two mafia factions but only one kill is that the other kill was blocked. The simplest explanation for a block was the known doctor role. He went for bulletproof vest. Just weird. I'm still really confused, and I don't feel like rereading Day 2 yet. The longer I put it off though, the more work it'll be. Ugh.
Luckily I recently discovered how much easier 50ppp is! Noob confession here, I was at 10. I didn't know you could change it. Catching up with or rereading the thread will now be like 90% less painful.
