Lemme show you something
The red stands for accusations, the green stands for defending.
Can you guess who the mafia is here based on this picture? This is from a single day of posting during a game.

Looks like the ones making the most accusations are mafia. After all if you are guilty and no one knows it the best thing to do is put the focus on everyone and anyone possible that's not you. Also if you are constantly questioning others you arn't answering any questions yourself. Less opportunity to slip. Also thanks for taking the time to at least clear that up.
About the "reading compreshions" I understand now why you found it suspect and it's my own fault bcause I used bad english. I can see how "them" could be a slip. But isn't it a bit early in game for that? I'm under thei impression that PMing anyone about the game that's not WoW at any time is against the rules and would get ya insta killed. I wasn't sure before and still not but assumed that speaking day or night counted as an action. It makes logical sense to me because how could you be in town hall speaking to everyone while at the same time rummaging someone's trash to see if they have any mob connections. Which is why I don't know but I think a lot of the people who are quiet now are probably quiet because they are busy preforming a day action of some sort. Still don't really know which is why I asked, but it was that logic and uncertainty that made me think that maybe mob meetings were a night only action which is why I asked about that. Thankfully tho it made things a little more clear when WoW came in and said mafia can only talk at night. It hasn't been night yet so I can understand why you could see Them as a slip but I don't know if it's too early for that kind of slip or not. I have no idea if mafia knows who each other are yet and I assume they havn't had a chance to talk yet.
I don't understand how you can deduce someone knows something from someone who's obviously never played before asking basic questions. I can understand how you could suspect someone that slips and says they know something they obviously shouldn't. However going after someone that's expressed nothing but ignorance and has been wrong just seems like scapegoating and grasping at straws.
If ya want to know what I know its simple. It's pretty much nothing. I know the rules and the basic design of the game. I know whats on the sign up page but I've misunderstood and made some bad assumptions about that info. Which is something I need to fix by PMing WoW more. I've only PM'd WoW a few times and he was kind enough to again go over the basics of the game. How it's a small group with knowledge vs. a larger group that's in the dark. WoW also mentioned that sometimes there could be a 3rd or 4th faction but neither confirmed or denied that any were present. I also asked about and learned some Fire Emblem lore I didn't know about because I never was able to play the game like what a Pegaus Knight is. That's pretty much it. I would be glad to share the PM's with you after the game ends.
I disagree answering my questions would help you find mafia, unless you are mafia then you'd probably want to keep me as ignorant as possible. The more I know the better I can help find mafia. It's not about pressure or alleviating it. It's about knowing what's going on and not having the town lose because of a misunderstanding. Now you can assume everyone is guilty until proven innocent and keep everyone edgy and defensive with empty accusations. Or we can all work together and assume everyone is innocent until proven guilty. That way people relax and let their guard down and increase the chance they will have a substantial and meaningful slip if they are mafia. However I don't know which would be a better way to go. In your experiance what do you find is usually best?
