defense should be incoming

Fine! I will say what the information was:

Hatmoza was framed as Mafia.

In my defense:

Obviously a lot of attention has been drawn to me, I don't want to point my finger at someone else and say "lynch him hes Mafia, not me!". Im not going to play that game.

A lot of attention has been drawn to the fact of my noobishness (or claimed to be noobishness). Now I don't believe that proves anything in reality. It doesn't prove that I am Mafia and it doesn't prove that im not Mafia because just as likely anyone in my situation a noob can be picked for Mafia just as easily as a noob can be picked for town.

Why would anyone who was an experienced player pretend to be in a situation like myself when it draws negative attention? That applies to both town and mafia alike. However I did not pretend to be noobish, I really am. I didn't understand the whole night cycle / day cycle thing, I didn't know that the vote can be extended or that a non majority can carry the day for a lynch. Had I known that, I would not have voted for no lynch. I don't believe I should be lynched on this basis.

My whole strategy has been centred around building trust. I have tried to build trust between the players. How can anyone call this a Mafia strategy? Why would anyone who is in the Mafia try to build trust and accord when the Mafia excel with discord and factionalisation? As a new player (which I really am) why would I work against the Mafia's objectives by following this strategy? It doesn't follow any of the Yomi levels written above. As a new player I felt it was my best bet to establish this trust because I rely on some of the more experienced players that once they are found to be trust-worthy I can work with them. Thats the reason why I haven't been focusing on lynching anyone in particular, just establishing trust. This is the reason why I briefly targetted Hatmoza because I couldn't be sure from the information I had recieved that the information was indeed correct as it contradicted his role claim.

Im relying on some of the more experienced people, people whom I trust now and I will follow them if they believe a certain individual is untrustworthy. I cannot and will not go alone because I am oblvious to much of the subtlety in this game.

This is the reason why I briefly targetted Hatmoza because I couldn't be sure from the information I had recieved that the information was indeed correct as it contradicted his role claim.

You're not a noob. You were pretending to be one. I don't see how you can argue that point.

Scum don't just try to spread distrust among the town, they try to blend in as perfectly as possible, spreading trust as well. Although trust can be, if not more, as dangerous as distrust in this game. 

The mafia's objective is not to spread trust or distrust. It's to kill anyone whose a threat to them. So any actions that are taken to heighten trust or distrust are not the best indicators of scumminess.

You're feigning ignorance about having a night action, which is scummy beyond belief. That's why we're lynching you.

And by suspecting people randomly, you think that establishes trust?

why would this cause a discrepancy?

Did you frame him?

Who were you tracking?

He was the obvious first choice for investigation. But then the results didn't fit with his actions so I had to be sure, I had to wait. His role claim surprised me, it made me immediately suspicious of who he really was.
