**shas'o vera**

hm, i have a bad feeling about this.

**the_ferrett**

Sorry Shas... but now's the time you tell us what's on your gut in terms of names. Unless we have sudden vote changes, you look to be a goner.

**shas'o vera**

well, to be honest, my suspisions lie with vulkan, he is hardily ever on, he only posts when we think he is suspitious, but what do i know? im just prodding in this game, not really wanting to do survive anyway.

**Emperors Faithful**

Actually, I'm with Shas'o on this one. Another vote or two could prod Vulkan to speak up a bit other than the occasional "I agree with..." post.

**shas'o vera**

thank you sir EF but i doubt it will help my case at all, im gone by the end of this day, i know it

Lord-Loss has 1 vote

I think if Shas'O goes on the first turn it'll be a loyal Eldar citizen we've consigned to death. An annoyingly confusing Eldar citizen, but nevertheless.

I feel we definitely need to hear more from Vulkan and from Mekboy too, he's not said much since he pointed the finger at me.

**SagesStone**

Nil ann ach cleasai, agus tá an iomad measa aige air féin.

So you're suggesting that we vote for Vulkan as an attempt to make him talk a bit more by adding pressure to him? Sounds like both a form of torture and a decent method of finding the truth, I'm going with the later (the decent way of finding the truth).

So Vulkan, explain why I shouldn't vote for you? Convince me you're not a Dark Kin. Motivate me to find a fragment of trust.

**shas'o vera**

i would give him a few hours, then put your vote on him, he would certainly listen then.

**SagesStone**

I'm waiting for the first reply before deciding if I should press on further with my vote or not.

**shas'o vera**

well, maybe you should think about others as well, i dont have long, and i actually have a good reason to find Vulkan suspisious

**SagesStone**

What would this reason be? Just voting for you?

˙sǝlƃuɐ ʇuǝɹǝɟɟıp ɯoɹɟ ʇı ʇɐ ƃuıʞool ɯ,ı ʎɐs plnoɔ noʎ oslɐ

**shas'o vera**

i explained the reason earlier, have a look, and i can read that ya know.

**Lord-Loss**

Bishop as an exprienced Mafia Player has backed me up on the "putting pressure thing" do you still find me suspicous?

Dark Kin will kill people who have conflict with another person. In this way they make people cast suspicon everywhere, be careful of this move..

**SagesStone**

I know, I didn't mean to make it unreadible. I guess that's a pretty good reason.

**the_ferrett**

Hpw did you do that Not_u?

**BishopGore**

I'm well aware that I'm in a dangerous position and there will no doubt be layers of bluff and double bluff in any night time kill, but what is said has been said, any change in my position now will just have people scrambling around questioning my every move, so I have chosen my position and stand by it.

I'm suspicious of you on many levels beyond the pressure, there's something not quite right about your attitude on here and I may be wrong, but I'm not backing down without proof

**Lord-Loss**

Could you tell me all these suspicons, so I can attempt to clear my name please.

Top of page 11. I wrote it all out. Nothing you have said since has changed my mind.

**Lord-Loss**

BishopGore wrote:Ok, Lord-Loss, I've been through and pinpointed some reasons that I've voted for you. Reading your posts is a bit of a rollercoaster of up and down, you get so passionate about things it is, as avantgarde (I think) said a few pages back, fairly disconcerting.

The reasons for voting for you are explained partly by your first 'sensible' (as you put it) post:

Lord-Loss wrote:2. Currently we are in the random voting stage, basically I might say to X person"You sir, smell like cats, I hate cats!!! vote: X person" It's a random vote, it helps get discussion started and you can see people's reactions to getting voted. Just though I'd mention this, incase anyone didnt know.

Besides your hounding of Shas'O you've mostly been pushing for other people to come up with people they think are suspicious (despite them having no more evidence than you have). I explained my "hounding" of Shas'O and Rusty backed me up that putting pressure on people is a good way to make them explain themselves

Lord-Loss wrote:Sometimes it nessicary tol put pressure on people, and using lots of caps doesnt usually work. So keeping someone three/four votes away from a lynch can force them to explain themselves.

Can everyone explain who they think is suspicous and why?

This seems suspicious to me as you could be trying to find links of people who don't like other people in order to exploit it.

The whole "who wants to join me in voting for Shas'O?!" followed by people voting then you backing off sharply has already been commented on. You've said you want Day 1 to continue as long as possible, but why? All we're getting by this stage is people getting confused about what was said seven pages of random nonsense ago, why not have our first lynching and THEN spend our two weeks disecting the way the votes fell? Seems to me that you want to get more ammunition to use against all of us as you slaughter your way through us.
Explained this above
Finally you get so over excited about everything. If anyone so much as points at you vaguely you start flinging around the exclamation marks and the anger.

Lord-Loss wrote:Arheiner: Me, EF and Shas isnt likely at all, you have no evidence to back it up!

Scarper: I'm hounding Shas for for some reason for his behavour because I dont want to lynch an innocent. It's hard to lynch an Dark Kin day one, but we might do it!

I have done nothing suspicous, I've been hounding Shas for an explanation about his silly, scummy behavour, thats not suspicous..

I have unvoted Shas to make sure he doesnt get lynched too early into day one, thats not suspicous.

It's not a lot to go on, and I know you can explain it all away, because there's nothing going on right now and all we can go on is what people are saying. That's not what we should be looking at, people can say anything, it's when the votes start being cast and people start dying in their sleep that we can actually hope to catch the Dark Kin.

I have a gut feeling that you're not being honest, it may well be wrong, but I choose to voice it and cast my vote on you.

I think I have it "explained it all away" and I really think you shouldnt vote off gut feelings, saying stuff like "I dont have any evidence to go off but I feel bad vibes from LL" I've done this in past Mafia games, but I would never, ever vote on it.. All votes should be backed up with evidence (Apart from Random Votes during Random voting stage... their random.

)

And as I have said, there is no evidence at this stage, only people's personas. All votes are based on feelings about the way people have acted or voted.

If you're not voting without evidence I assume you won't be voting this round?

**Lord-Loss**

My vote for Shas'o could be backed up with quotes of him suspicous behavour etc. I'm not sure about him now, but I could give evidence of why he might be a Dark Kin.

At this point in day one you should be able to back up a vote with evidence. Aslong as the vote is achually for a good reason and not on a hunch or a feeling.

**BishopGore**

I've read everything that has been written so far, and everything you have claimed to be evidence against Shas'O has been nothing but circumstantial. Based upon the kind of poster he is in every other thread it makes very little sense, since if he had been given a role with any extra amusement built in, he would have acted completely differently to the "I don't care if I survive the first day" attitude he's had.

So honestly I don't believe anyone has any evidence and it's all based on personal feelings that we ascribe twisted logic to afterwards to justify it.

I am sticking with my hunch for this round because there is no voting pattern to watch, only the random twistings on the wind of people who have nothing better to do but verbally spar.

**Lord-Loss**

Shas had done a number of suspicous things. I think almost everyone can agree on that, he has also provided no explanation for this behavour.

**RustyKnight**

Lord-Loss wrote:I think almost everyone can agree on that, he has also provided no explanation for this behavour.

I'm-new,-so-I'm-going-to-continue-acting-suspicious is an explanation.

Honestly, the fact that Shas'o claims to not care if he lives or dies makes him more suspicious in my eyes. He should care. To claim otherwise looks like a last-ditch effort to save himself.

**Arheiner**

We really need to get his back on track.

There's four hours left, but I don't think I'll be awake at that time, so I'll update in the morning. Consider it an extension of sorts
