[Crazy Bacon Legs]

Wow... shocking. Three of the mafia guys I called out turn to vote for me. Stunning. (<---This is SARCASM)

flameswin: I already explained. I am not certain which mafia faction you belong to. I am really certain Baxter belongs to the opposite faction from starseed. If I continued with the vote against you this round and you flip the same as starseed, it makes me look like a mafia member from the opposite faction. When I vote to lynch a member from each faction, it adds to my credibility and helps us move forward in lynching more mafia.

But I know you don't want an actual answer; you're posing rhetorical questions in the hopes that you can get townspeople to turn on me. Predictable and understandable, really. I would have been comfortable with lynching either of you guys this round, but in the long game it made more sense to knock off one fom each faction in successive votes.

As for me "responding" to your post: do you have any idea how long that post took to write? I think from the time I started to the time I ended, there were something on the order of 10-15 new posts. I wasn't responding to anything you wrote. It's just unfortunate some people fell for your "I'll vote for myself!" farce.

To the other townspeople: I plead with you again: read Baxter's posts. Look at how he railed against townspeople every round without fail. Read his interactions with people who were found to be townspeople. He's an uber-aggressive mafia member and I have no doubt that was part of their plan from the start. If he plays the doctor like this, he just doesn't know how to play the game, and I don't buy that. He's been quick to accuse townspeople of being mafia without ANY proof and then accused anyone who dared question that decision of being mafia too.

Another thing: Baxter posted speculation about what the doctor was doing in terms of protection. You know what I don't believe for a second? That the person who is the doctor would stick his neck out by posting what he thinks the doctor is doing Think about how little sense that actually makes for a moment. He's changed his tune in desperation because he knew he was about to be killed and revealed as mafia.

But I'm nearing the point where I am pretty much done trying to provide analysis to the group. I point out the only real, underlying logical analysis thus far in the game, the accused people make some lame excuses and lie some more, and everyone backs off immediately.

So I invite you to do what I asked at the beginning: read my large post, and go through Baxter Renegade's voting history and posting history. Then try to tell me he wasn't targeting vulnerable townspeople. Clearly, some people have not done this.

Barring that, go ahead and lynch me. I invite it if that's what it takes for people to wake up. It will be worth it in the end. I figured I was dead this coming night phase anyhow, but the sad reality is we're going to lose three townspeople now this round. I hope that leaves us with enough people to have a snowball's chance at winning this game.

I'll let you be the judge.
