[PLAY TIME] BULLET BALLOT MAFIA

author=Kloe
I guess you're right, really. I don't trust you, and you're still my prime suspect, but I think we shouldn't let them make us try to destroy each-other while they get away with it.
What now everyone? Who do we question, who do we ask, what do we need to know? (other than who is murdering everyone)

It's fine; as soon as I saw the green TOWN text by Gourd's name, I knew I was going to be spending the following 48 hours being suspect. Especially from you.

As for what to do now; first maybe we should work out the possible scenarios. See what sounds reasonable, question together around each situation. I don't think spending the day at each other's throats is going to provide us any solid answers. Open-minded, theoretical discussion seems best.

That said:
Kloe - Worked with piano to organize the tirade to sacrifice piano and solidify herself as innocent. Baited people to accuse her, so she could react. Spin yesterday into Team Gourd VS Team Makio in her posts in order to use that as a reason to pin Makio as Mafia the next day.
* The detail that feels odd about this is that middle bit where she 'pretended' to agree that Gourd was the guilty party and that she regretted her vote for me.
* The piano/Kloe situation works better if there is another Mafia on top of those two.
* This also all ties into the fact that Kloe did NOT vote for piano on the first day, despite being so sure piano was Mafia. (A detail that remains very curious to me.) As Mafia, it wouldn't make sense for her to sacrifice piano that early in the game.

Jeroen_Sol - Pretends to suspect piano all along to solidify themself as trustworthy. Helps pin things on Gourd yesterday so town hangs Gourd.
* Works best if they are working WITH Kloe, since then Kloe's sudden tactic to make the Gourd thing sound like it was mainly instigated by Makio, would be a way to pull suspicion away from Jeroen.
* Detail that strikes me odd about this, was Joroen almost flat out admitting that Makio gave them the null vote and that was a reason to trust her. Though this detail becomes supported again if their aim was to take out Gourd and set Makio up to take the fall for it the next day (This ONLY works if they are working with Kloe and knew she would toss the shade Makio's way at the end of the day.)

oddRABBIT - plays a potentially deadly gamble with piano at the end of Day 2 to try to sacrifice themself or piano and solidify the innocence of that survivor. Has been very quiet and not contributed too much in the way of theories.
* Thing that strikes me odd about that is that oddRABBIT always seems to vote against the grain. However that might be a gambit to distance themselves from the lynchings and appear to not be contributing to any one strategy.

Yellow Magic - plays a very confusing game, pretends to forget Isreiri is dead to try to cast themselves in an innocent light. Also suspected Gourd yesterday and questioned Kloe's idea that Makio was guilty which could be a similar play to what was mentioned in Joroen's bit there. Fakes guilt this morning for how they've been playing after the Gourd thing was wrong. YM was one of the few other people to vote for RABBIT the night of piano's lynching. (the other being Crystal, who made that vote with a double vote)
* The forgetting Isreiri was killed gamble is WAY out there. Possible but way out there.
* YM is mysterious and their actions haven't really felt like things that would support Mafia.

I wrote one for myself but that felt like a self defense and that would just turn into finger pointing. So someone else write one for me. And feel free to contribute more thoughts or dispute points.

Also ninja post by Maki, yet again... I wish I could type faster...

I didn't on the first day, only on the second, I said "all along" (if I did) to sound amazing!
Can I hear yours Maki, I'm only curious!
I just have a gut feeling and one or two posts here and there feel very leading and odd...

*all but one, sorry, I messed up there, at least I'm not getting ninja'd

"YM/Joroen (this terrifies me)" Yep, it does here too, Piano, YM and Jeroen (STOP FORGETTING THE E) is frightening!

The sudden change was because I suddenly had a random feeling of "It's Maki, I'm gonna accuse her and hm.... Wait, yes, It is her BLAH BLAH BALH"

I know you didn't say that, it's just some people have and it irritates me, even though it really shouldn't!

I agree with most of your last post, but honestly the theory about you doesn't ring true as something that has actually happened, thank you for sharing, I now trust you a little. Also you never shared your most to least list of who you thought was most suspicious. It's not as important after your post on how each person could be the mafia, but I would still like to see, the more the better!

Yup, I like the theory but yes, it seems like you are "very likely looking into this too much"
We should think of more things as "not that they didn't, but that they couldn't?" it seems like a good way to think! But not a whole lot prevents people from doing what they want (mostly) in Mafia...

I'm sorry but I'm not invested enough in this game to read these paragraphs amongst paragraphs. I'm assuming they're basically going over the actions of everyone in the past?

Where did I say I was suspicious, Kloe?

Food for thought: Both Makio and Jeroen used their powers and voted for the same person. Coincidence, or...?

When I think about it, posting a shedload of information and then ending with "not sure who to vote for or equivalent" is a very Mafia-like tactic. looking at you, Makio/Kloe...

My paragraphs are looking at reasons for EVERYONE so I think it's a pretty fair statement to say I'm unsure after leaving a post like that.

Me and Kloe is an interesting combo. I could see how that would work too. Though, I think it would be more viable if I played into her attack a bit more last night. That might be too similar to the piano/Kloe thing if all that were true though.

Just, no lying. haha

Speaking of lying, was there any good reason why you stated that you suspected piano all along, despite actually not?
