I cast ElFire on rising tensions.

...

*still bitter*

Yeah I dont need imagination cuz im know how to read what a card says.

@hylian
calm down bro. I dont think mafia is for you anyway.

Smeags, your final thoughts? It's your kill after all. Unless you don't mind either way. I wanna pull the trigger on Khan.

This whole post.

I'd like to repeat something, since I doubt many people read it, but prof was the only target Day1, Smeags is our vig and thus confirmed town, and there's also padib. That's why I trust these people.

If you'd been paying attention, you would know that I was going after Smeags the first two Days. Then when I got his vigilante item, I stopped, and he was confirmed town from then on.

No need for that, let's just play the game. :)

@Sparks

Shoot: ConeGamer

It's your decision (stop giving me the responsibility dammit! ) and I'm happy to see you're at least pretending to care (Once this is over I'll shake your hand, but for now everyone's afraid everyone else will stab them in the back).

I think Cone will give us leads and information that no one else can for now. If we're not beaten down already, this could be it. Khan could be a safer bet to lynch instead of shoot, depending on his claim. I mean, we do have two townie vigilantes, so the bomb could be used to turn the tide against Trucks and myself (now you).

I'm ready to get this night over with though.

My apologies: I'll reread and get back to you. But be warned that it might take a while yet again. Cards on the table: my schedule has left me rarely able to post on this site at all over the past few years, let alone play mafia, hence my year+ absence. And I still wince at how I did in the last game, where my attention was divided. Sure, we won, but lord knows I did not handle that game well at all... The only reason I joined up is because WoW's games have historically been awesome, and this one does not disappoint.

Also, I prepared a long post earlier in between phone calls, but now it's been far over an hour, things have continued speeding along, and it wouldn't contribute much in the way of originality. Short story: I didn't realize hylian and I are the only one left unclaimed, so a mass claim isn't as bad of an idea as I thought. I'm a Mason, which is why I fully believe Smeags and, through that, sparks' claim to have Smeags' Elfire. (Our lodge is very small, and as a real life male I willfully refuse to do what it'd take to make it grow).

I don't think the town is in too much trouble just yet: we've only lynched once, and that didn't kill any townie. That said, I hope four is the largest scum faction rather than five, as otherwise two miskills today would end the game. I believe the risk is worth it though.

Smeags and Padib are solidly town in my mind, I make no apologies for staying on RCT or for suspecting cone, and either whiteeagle or nickle is probably lying. The mafia roleblocker may reconcile Cone and whiteeagle's stories, but it's just another in the "yes, but" series of explanations cone would have to string together to not look scummy in my eyes.

Moreover, while I'm not accusing WhiteEagle by any stretch, I would like to answer an earlier question regarding why a scum WhiteEagle would lie by pointing out that we don't know how many scum there are: if there are five scum in one faction, only two miskills are needed to win, and one could read WhiteEagle's story as an attempt to get at least one miskill, and then explain away his "error." His new status would actually help here: "I don't know what I'm doing" has been a common, and commonly accepted, refrain in this game. I don't think it's likely enough at this moment to prefer him over RCT, but the thought did occur to me.

Khan's constant flip-flopping is more scummy to me than not acting like a bomb, especially if he is new to mafia and therefore not clued in to how a bomb "should" act. I believe he once tried to raise not using his double-vote as proof of towniness, but as someone else no doubt pointed out, if khan didn't know about the double vote, it doesn't mean much. As an aside, his recent behavior would strike me as more suspicious if I wasn't familiar with khan outside this game. Respectfully khan, you tend to lose your temper too easily. The things you said during Monster Hunter games would make a sailor blush... But he certainly has been willing to jump on bandwagons fairly regularly, even more than the average player here. If I had to lay odds, I'd say scum, but he's lower on my list than others.

Finally, guys: It's a game. We've had our mod twice come in and ask that we tone it down, so let's please do so. It's rarely fun for anyone when things get personal, so if we can't play civilly then let's say so right now, and those of us who prefer not to continue in this environment can say so and request a modkill, or at least a cooling off period.

Not the answer I was looking for, to be honest, but I always felt guilty for taking your kill, so I will do it.

Kill post coming in five minutes...

Hey hon. #^_^#

Ill stick with what smeags does.
we can lynch khan. I think shooting cone makes sense.
its risky, but I think its worth the risk.

@smeags
he's not the bomb it doesn't matter
