    I guess we can at least say the Death Eaters either don't care or aren't playing very smart. Axing jwlk made no sense in the long game, because he was doing wonders at drawing suspicion to himself.

    It tells us absolutely nothing. If the DEs had killed Rehio last game, would that have cleared Ashaya?

    It tells us nothing, but recent deaths seem to indicate that someone wants suspicion off of Mishie. I don't know if I'm right (I'm probably not) but that's what it indicates to me. This changes my previous predictions.

    That doesn't help us at all though. Them not thinking things through doesn't leave a pattern of who to look at. Vira getting killed meant mishie and jwlk were going to get noticed either way. Now with jwlk dead, mishie's sorta off the hook while we try other leads and ideas...:facepalm

    The most obvious common denominator to me is that they're killing off people with higher than average post counts.

    Although, following that logic, Fiat Pisces should be dead by now.

    Don't jinx the man. Or the rest of us. They might just be killing at random to provoke confusion. Their last three kills were kinda illogical...

    Following that logic, I should have been dead immediately.

    I was just stating the first thought that came to my mind. Never said it was correct - I was just throwing it out there.

    Why hasn't anyone been suspicious of INBN so far? He's barely posted at all - which strikes me as distinctly strange.

    That's actually a really good point. A while ago, I though INBN and mishie were equally suspicious, but mishie somehow rose in suspicion while INBN stayed the same.

    ... You suspected jwlk and her at the time of Vira's death. Now you suspect mishie at the time of jwlk's death, even though that's a clearly shitty way to draw notice off of her and takes away an unknowing ally/puppet.

    ...

    You got something to say, Fiat? Or should I say Death Eater, from the way things are starting to look?

    You're one to talk, Hash. The fact that you automatically decided that neither implies the obvious despite last round's death eaters using that tactic makes you pretty fucking suspicious.

    My theory: Either a) mishie is innocent and jwlk was blindly white-knighting him or b) mishie is the Dark Lord, and the DEs are trying to steer attention away from him. Fenraellis's investigation supports my theory, because I sincerely believe our Auror investigated mishie over the past two nights. The guy was too "immediate" a problem because of Vira's death. And since our Auror claims that he hasn't found a Guilty person yet, I think mishie is cleared or the Dark Lord.

    Hence, I believe that Kensington is a logical suspect for Death Eaterhood. He was accused simultaneously with mishie, for refusing to vote for Taure earlier. Yet he slipped off the radar when Vira started her debate with jwlk over mishie.

    Personally, I don't understand why the DEs killed jwlk. What are they trying to do? Focus the attention on the Vira/mishie debate? Nonetheless, we'd be stupid to forget about Kensington.

    Oh, and on Fiat Piscis. I'll reiterate that he is extremely suspicious, but he's so aggressively pro-town that I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. At least until some more obvious targets (e.g. Kensington, mishie) have been addressed.

    Firstly, I have to agree that Fiat is looking suspicious, although that's mainly because at this stage of the game we all are.
    Secondly, fuck you Jon.

    ... What's the obvious? :confused:

    Edit: Sorry, but it makes a bit of sense. The Death Eaters see Vira arguing with jwlk and mishie, and sees a way to get at least one of them lynched. But most of us are more focused on HoS, so they lynch Vira to get people to look at jwlk and mishie.

    Except no one moves for either one, so they do it again on jwlk, hoping people are going to suspect mishie. Easy Wizard kill, and if mishie gets lynched, so much the better, right? And since Vira’s died, who’s been pushing attention at them? You have. It's why I'm suspicious of you.

    I'm looking suspicious because I'm suspicious of you. Good job, that doesn't seem slightly suspicious at all.

    Hash: The obvious is that when Vira's death, everyone automatically assumed it cleared mishie and jwlk because it's 'too obvious.' In jwlk's death, people are doing to same, because 'why would you kill someone on your side.'

    It seems like a pretty obvious tactic to me, especially considering that Anarchy admitted to doing the same in the last thread.

    We're starting to go around in circles here...

    Oh. Well that could tie into Zeit's Dark Lord theory...

    This bears further thinking. You're tying with mishie for top of the suspicion list right now.

    Fucking Death Eaters... :fire

    To demonstrate what I meant before, here are the appropriate Lord Anarchy quotes that explain the last two deaths.
    EDIT: They're in the reverse of the order they were used in here. In context, Xiph0 was Vira and Last Game's Scritorre was jwlk.

    Ok, to me the top suspects are as follows:

    1. Mishie. Everything seems to have been falling into place too perfectly for it to not be her. jwlk, who was White Knighting her, would have been the last person targeted if mishie was in fact a DE. But now that he is dead, most people would logically assume that she has nothing to do with it. It just seems too perfect for me.

    2. INBN and atomicwalrus. Both scream suspicious to me, the first more then the second due to his lack of posting.

    3. FP and Zeit. I haven't forgotten your little debate from days one and two, though it just seems to have stopped. You both gave good reasons that I can accept at face value, but my gut is mildly suspicious.

    4. Everyone else. This is Mafia after all.

    It's stopped because I didn't feel like going back in forth with a conversation that basically boiled down to "No You!" that was somehow incriminating me and him equally. I stand by most of the statements I made at the time, but without anything more concrete think that we should focus on people I can actually get a vote going for.

    Edit: But, as I sadly agree with Zeit again, I've gotta say that Kensington is still suspicious and no one has addressed it in a while.

    I would like to think that I'm excluded from that, but realistically, I have only actually pronounced one person guilty... that was probably going to get lynched anyway.

    I could call out my "not guilty" reports, but the only way to even prove them right, is to actually kill them(and a Death Eater would know who was innocent too, now that the Dark Wizard is gone), which doesn't help us at all >_>. Realistically, until I find another guilty target, or someone claims as a false Auror which can be dis-proven, then technically, I don't really have much that actually proves that I'm an Auror unless I die.:( Something that I would rather avoid for the sake of all of the good-aligned townspeople.

    I realize that saying such doesn't really help my case, but I'm just being realistic, and putting my cards on the table. I do appreciate my fellow Pro-Town supporters for believing in me though, although I imagine that at least a couple of the moderately vocal people are actually Death Eaters. Here's looking at you #$%@^*$!%$!.

    That said, at least one of my investigation targets is assuredly innocent, allowing the possibility that one of them is the falsely-negative Dark Lord.

    Anyway, we have at most five days to kill off at least one Death Eater. I sincerely hope that we can do better than that.
