Except that I disagree with your assessment there. I have been one of the more vocal players. I've been advocating going after inactive players for reasons I have mentioned multiple times (multiple games even). If you're actually going for people who meet your criteria there are many other alternatives.

Well let's talk about the Squiggs thing because I still think it's odd. You're reasoning to vote him was he hasn't revealed who he is. I think it's odd as well. 17 posters had revealed who they were when he made his post. He acknowledges that everyone was revealing who they are...and didn't do so himself. Why didn't he reveal himself? It's an answer we haven't heard despite moving on from him. I'm still curious why he didn't just say he was pickachu in his first post.

Everyone should have planned to be active, town or mafia. I am advocating going for inactive players because losing an inactive town is better than losing an active town. This is some thing I have been consistent with. Mafia would also be okay with keeping inactive players around because they don't have to worry about them. So yes, I still think we should stick with that strategy but I'm more hopeful that we wont have inactive players and wont have to worry about it.

Your argument becomes flawed based on Bizaro86's post. He was away and unable to post, it wouldn't matter if he was mafia or town he wasn't going to be able to post until now so the argument that mafia would be active doesn't work in a case like Bizaro's.
