Vote: IS

It's a gut vote. I'm allowed gut votes, right?

7 left, of which two are likely mafia, and one serial killer.

With a back-up cop, a cop just to look for the serial killer, plus the normal cop, i would think that there would probably be three mafia and a SK. You don't stick in three cops for three bad guys.

[Internet Stranger]

And to think, I even know who the other mafia is and its not *gasp* Green Crayons!

Im also pretty close to figuring out the SK too. I think ill have enough to make a list tomorrow.

For now, my vote stays on Pim, despite our friendly keystone cop here.

[Pim]

And to think, I even know who the other mafia is...

The

other

mafia?

[Internet Stranger]

As in.. who im voting for and the other one.

[Green Crayons]

Unvote: IS
Vote: Pim

I guess let's just see what he's talking about.

[Pim]

As in.. who im voting for and the other one.

Ah. I thought your vote was just a random one.
Ok, so why am I mafia?

Pim we know you like to post, so why not give me a reason why we should not bandwagon on you.

[Pim]

That hurts, Trev, but I can't deny that I have been a little too...enthusiastic in posting after I joined. I'm in a 12 step program for that now.

As long as were talking about it though, if I were mafia, why would I post so much? It hasn't done anything but draw attention and bandwagons, and I had time enough to learn that after the first page. So I'm not acting like mafia.

Second, my suspicions of ExDeath were incorrect, and I feel terrible about lynching him. Nonetheless, my argument against him still stands: he was absolutely confident that Dragon Phoenix was mafia. Dragon Phoenix was not. I was suspicious of his terrible reasoning and his reasoning turned out to be pretty bad—bad enough to arouse suspicion in enough people to vote to lynch him.

Third, this is a bandwagon started by Internet Stranger who has yet to give his reasons for thinking I'm mafia or that Green Crayons is not. IS can't be protecting his role, since admitting that he knows through something other than reading posts is as good as admitting a cop-like role, and there is little point in hiding his reasoning if he's working from public information since he needs to persuade other people in order to lynch.

[Internet Stranger]

Information? I dont need a fancy cop role or to even read posts to catch mafia, im IS.

[Pim]

Well

I'm

going to

vote mneme

just because we haven't heard anything from him in a while.

[Night Stalker]

vote:pim

Pim we know you like to post, so why not give me a reason why we should not bandwagon on you.

Because we're down to 7 people, of which at least three are evil - 2 mafia, and one SK. And that's the best case scenario. If we lynch an innocent today, the two kills at night bring us down to 4 survivors - unless the mafia and the SK manage to knock each other off, we've lost.
This is no time for mindless bandwagons precipitated by a wordless, thought-free post at the begining of the day. It's time for a close look at anyone who's running one.

Sometimes I forget that some people are just fools that dont know the mighty mafia catching powers of IS.

Pretty disheartening. The idiotic pitchfork and torch wielding mob always works en masse.

If im telling you Pim is mafia scum, it usually means:

"Pim is mafia scum."

I dont need a dissertation of what he was like as a kid or some concrete proof. When IS tells you what someone's role is, its most likely correct.

In fact, why dont you go see the legacy I have left behind. You will see im usually correct.

Geesh, damn n00bs.

[Night Stalker]

Even if that was true, there's always the chance that you could be mafia scum in this game. We need more evidence then your say so...

[Internet Stranger]

If I was mafia, I would have been exposed already. Im guaranteed to be checked on the first night by cops.

[Night Stalker]

Unless, of course, the cop is a newbie, and didn't know who to investigate on the first day...

[Internet Stranger]

Im not sure if there was any better way to paint a bigger target upon yourself like you just did stalkerboy, congrats.

Now lets at least lynch Pim before his buddy kills you tonight.

[Green Crayons]

Where is everyone else in this town? Caught the cold and can't come out to discuss?

[Internet Stranger]

Discussion isnt needed, just listen to IS.

[Pim]

You know, it really is hard if people don't post. Mneme's silence is suspicious, but then again Trev, IS, and Green Crayons are randomly(?) bandwagonning when the lynching of an innocent could mean curtains for the town. I'll unvote once Mneme posts, but at least one of those three is scum.

FOS all three, but especially IS.

[Internet Stranger]

I feel like, special.

[mneme]

Fine, fine, I'll post.
(my silence would be "I forgot about mafiascumm for a few days. oops")

The big problem is that IS is (quite clearly, and I suspect the record shows this) the kind of player who plays exactly the same whether it is Mafia or, well, anythings else (though honestly, if we'd played my game to begin with, we might have been able to get something useful out of all these roles who have been dying).

In any case, given how hopeless things currently are, I'm incluned to jump on IS's bandwagon, and hope for luck if he's wrong.

Vote count:

Pim - 4 (Green Crayons, Trevize, Internet Stranger, mneme)
IS - 1 (Night Stalker)
mneme - 1 (Pim)

"I'm IS, paragon of all mafia hunters!" Internet Stranger shouts. "Pim is mafia!"

"No I'm not," Pim says. "Why do you say that? Where's your information?"

"I'm IS!" he screams. "I don't need information!" The town, whether it's because they trust IS' instincts or merely to shut him up, lynches Pim.

"Hey, there was a stethoscope in his pocket," Night Stalker says, searching the body's pockets.

"That's obviously a tool of the mafia!" IS yells.

"And here's a PDA with different doctor's appointments filled in," casinopete says.

"Only a mafia would carry a PDA!" IS replies.

"And there was a mini-diploma in his pocket," mneme says. "It says 'Pim, M.D. He's a doctor. Really.'"

"That's a mafia diploma!" IS shouts.

"Hey," a voice no one recognizes says. "I'm a member of the mafia. He's not. Get over it."

The crowd slowly dissipates from Pim's lifeless body, except for IS. "But...but...but...mafia..." he tries rationalizing to himself.

Pim, mafia to IS but

doctor

to everyone else, is dead. Send choices.

[Beaudoin]

Day breaks. Goody, more dead bodies.

mneme lies dead in the streets. Beside him is a pair of binoculars and a camera. Looks like he was stalking someone.

Green Crayons is nowhere to be found. "Well, he said he was going on vacation..." someone says.

"Hey, here's a plane ticket with his name on it. Dated for today," someone else says. "And here's a mafia revolver next to it." Rejoice, town, a mafia is finally dead!

mneme, stalker

and

Green Crayons, member of the Fortissimo mafia

are dead. The stalker could see who someone targetted that night. The mafia...they kill people.

4 alive,

3 to lynch

. Because of the number of people left, the half-majority rule will no longer be in effect.
