That's three on AsianHa. I'd advise everyone else not to put the last vote on her until we give her some time to respond. You could just
FOS
if you want to make your feelings known.

I'd like to FOS AsianHa myself. I do think that her repeated reiteration of her innocence is a little out of place. Also, the references to things assisting the mafia more then the town don't really make sense to me, but maybe it does to someone else?

Yeah, I don't understand how her reading the wiki can help the mafia. I'm wondering if her posts are some horrible combination of humor, language barrier, and newbieness. Like the perfect storm.

In any case, it's only the third page, so we can take our time discussing all this.

Sorry, I forgot to tell you guys this.
In real life I am extremly paranoid. Ever since I heard of the ripple effect I have been extremly fearful that any of my actions that I take will benefit those trying to kill me. That should explain my actions that have happened so far. I didn't mention it because, well, I'm not used to talking over the internet, and anyone who talks to me face-to-face immediatly realizes that I am paranoid, either by the way I talk, or my family history.

Let's put it this way:
My parents made some bad choices about a year before I was born. I can't risk saying anything else, on the basis that someone might recognize who I am and find out where I am. :cry:

Did you know that just because you're paranoid doesn't mean someone isn't chasing you?

Yeah, well, I've learned that I don't have to post immediatly once I have something I might want to say. I was extremely jumpy, so I had to calm myself down so I could stop and think before I posted.

Very interesting... ehhh... when I read that a third vote was put on her I was about to withdraw my vote to prevent a ridiculous execution... or is AsianHa simply saying this to save her scum-skin? From my past experience.... the overly jumpy newbie person who was a bit too eager to post was a member of the mafia.

My vote will stay.

I'm not sure I believe this paranoia stuff. I mean, if she really is a person with a genuine problem with paranoia where she has to move three times in four months and wakes up to gunshots in the middle of the night, why would she sign up to play a game like mafia? Seems like it would be too stressful a game for somebody who fears for their life every second of every day.

So, this is what I think, either:
A) She thinks she's being funny and is trying to sabotage this game.
B) She got caught as scum and is trying to be confusing.

Nothing else really makes sense to me. If she's afraid of people hacking into her computer, why is she even using the internet?

I agree. In either case, she's not helping.

And I'd REALLY like to hear Airotcia's opinion on this AsianHa business... in fact... I'd just like to hear ANYTHING from her........

So we're pretty much restarting day one...

I know we don't have a replacement yet but I'm wondering how much wieght we can put on AsianHa's posts. After all, the new player has the same aligment, but I don't know what to think. I guess we'll wait until we have a new player.
