since the mafia know who each other are. they don't need the forum to talk
True, but still extremely unlikely. I mean:
1. There would be plenty of townies who'll find a reason not to post, as I've already pointed out.
2. I think the mob wouldn't want silence to be the thing that does them in.
3. The idea that they won't post in fear of giving themselves away is pretty flawed. Lying online is easy, all they have to do is say they are regular Townies with no special roles, messing up and giving themselves away is highly unlikely.
4. Just because they know who they are and can communicate outside of the thread isn't a strong enough reason not to post here, since posting here is their best bet at appearing innocent.
5. Just not posting and hoping we will kill each other off is a bit of a stretch.
When you add it all together, whether or not people post in this thread is a poor, poor way of determining guilt. We should stick to motives and real clues if we want to win this thing.

Well said. But all these trends y'all keep thinking of me of a question I sometimes ask to make people shut up.

Will your answer to this question be "no"?

There is no way to get around it.

Possible answers:
Yes, it will be no
No, it will not be no

You were talking about how you would be suspicious of everyone so there is no way out the suspicions.

And I rarely make much sense.

The solution to the problem is easy. We decide on the one person who is most likely 100% Townie, and then kill the rest. The sole survivor will most likely be Townie and the Mob will all be dead.

Somehow it can't be that easy…

I'm going to have to. I got a 600 word paper to write in 3 hrs. I need at least 2. Besides. Nothing is going to happen until tomorrow. At this rate we are going to be knee deep in accusations of everyone and have to dig ourselves out. I think now would be a good time to break at the very least since nothing is going to happen right now no matter what we do. It will also give Spang and Leaderofstars time to formulate a defense for themselves if they haven't already.

It isn't easy because if we kill too townies we need a better strategy.

It can't, because the mafia would find out who that innocent person is and kill them.

The mob will know who the one certain person is and then kill them. That stratedgy is useless.
The trick is to work out who is a townie and comunicate directly with them, a small cell structure of people who are 100% trusted.
Question is, how do we decide who to 100% trust?
I hope my erratic and insane behaviour will convince you all that I may do crimes, they are never organised! I am as townie as they come.
In Vast we trust!

I'm pretty sure ozone is innocent, and I can definitely vouch for myself. Then again, the mafia seems to be planning to kill me, so nobody confide any secret information you want me to use.

I'm just the Historian. I write what I see. I'm proud of the next page. Because of my schedule, I'm just putting up my pencil draft and color it later, but I think I got everyone's avatars down pretty good…

Well. I gotta go. I won't be back until tomorrow probably. I'm starting an exercise regiment at 630am.

I have a decent list going and a few suspects. It'd help more if the detective would identify themself to me though… Then they could use their skills publicly through me without identifying themselves to the mafia.

It's a hard game and the mafia are clever. They have to be cleverer than us though because they have to pretend they're simple townies with the same worries as us, while all the time they really know what's going on.

Feels like one of the puzzles with missing pieces doesn't it? Though you could have sworn you put them all back into the box…maybe it is under the couch?

Edit: Kinda sucks that nobody fully trusts anybody. Even our mayor was elected because he was the least suspicious.

Hopefully, one of them slips up soon and tells us something only they know.

Well I can fully trust two people:
My bodyguards.
I know who they are because Black Kitty had to tell me, So I start from that area of trust and work outwards…
Carefully.

At least it gives me two people to fully disclose to.

That's good. I was kind of wondering if the mayor knows who his bodyguards are. If you didn't, that would kind of be unfair. You could have one lynched without knowing it.

Three people! You can always trust your friend Harkovast!
You can trust the fact that most of what I say is nonsense.
Thats a kind of trust…

It better not be or we'll have you lynched for real next time.

I can trust me 100%, and ozone I trust about 54%, cause we we're talking and if he's mafia he's pretty good at appearing to be none mafia. I trust skoolmunkee about 29%. That's about it.
Anyways, I'm thinking of voting to lynch either Hark or los. I'll probably flip a coin.
