I'm not sure you'd be stupid enough to make such a blatant mistake, though I'm also not sure if this is how you would want it to appear.

The first thing I did when I saw shorttricky had been NK'd was to search for a reason.... the only thing I could find is that he voted you first before changing to Jedi.
I agree, I think this was a ploy to make Fortyseven look even more guilty.

As they have only made 3 posts in the thread thus far I still don't know anything about GhostWKD. I don't think Brabbinho is in the mafia, but that's purely on the basis that he was in the mob in the last game which doesn't really mean that much if the names are definitely picked at random. I don't have anything on any of the other players really, lots of stuff has been thrown in Fortyseven's direction but I'm not sure why yet, apart from the late vote.
I feel a bit lost now, I was sure shorttricky was one of the mafia after his switch when he was so sure originally.
There are 2 people I'd quite like to hear from now, both of which have been conspicuously absent throughout the votes/discussions - GhostWKD and Gooner. (Edit: just noticed Gooner did participate a bit, but didn't seem to make any effort to vote)

I have some suspicions but I need to go back and re-read some things to really confirm my thinking, I'll post again in the morning I think

Didn't really expect that tbh. Not sure if 47 is mafia or not now but he's clouding everything up and is still my number one suspect. Gooner and ghost have both been pretty quiet (did ghost post yesterday?)
The making 47 look guilty could be a ploy but it seems a little...unnecessary. he's made himself look pretty guilty all by himself

I'll confess, I missed the vote because I was enjoying myself too much in the pub.
How many townies are we down to now? 6? Not looking good is it. I'll have to re-read everything again before chipping in further

Yes. Unfortunately it's so obvious that it could be a double bluff, which is a problem.
Did we have 3 people not vote yesterday?

Apologies I didn't vote yesterday... these days always seem so much longer when you're a spectator vs being involved. Genuinely gutted Jedi has gone as was looking forward to reading his summary, even if I did have my own doubts of wether he was Townie or Mafia.
Need to do some more reading of the thread but from my view there's a few people who seem to be working together quite openly, need to review it to be sure though as I may have just found something where there is nada

I don't want to point the finger at you just yet, but this is the sort of post I made in game 2 when I was part of the mafia. Sort of tries to reinforce yourself as one of the good guys by reminding everybody that you shared their train of thought and are actively seeking out suspicious people.
The reality could be that you're in the mafia and you're just trying to come across as one of the good guys by telling everyone how confused you are and how you were definitely convinced that so and so was part of the mafia before they were bumped off. It wouldn't surprise me if you actually killed shorttricky just to make yourself look distanced from the mafia with posts like this.

The reason I quoted myself at the top of all my quotes was because shorttricky was the person I was suspicious of before voting Jedi. I was all ready to come out with righteous fury this morning and point the finger at him, I'd even gotten myself ready to do so before making my vote. That's why I'm lost!
Edit: Well, not entirely lost, I made myself a spreadsheet after that post last night

Other than fortyseven, I'm not sure who could be mafia and even with fortyseven I'm not totally convinced any more. I have two trains of thought, either those who didn't vote are mafia, or those that jumped on the Jedi band wagon are.
lol - that includes just about everyone then

Yup, thats the problem!
Reading it back and it seems my theory is utterly shot so I've still nothing to contribute in any meaningful way.
Time to assign everyone numbers and roll a dice!

I'm back later this evening so I need to have a serious read through everything and formulate some thoughts. I missed the voting window yesterday but probably would have voted for forty seven

Fortyseven, if you turn out to be mafia this really is a work of genius because I cannot get my head around this. Jedi was so right, you should have been lynched so we could see one way or the other and then work with the reactions of others.
Edit: I also think that whether Fortseven is Mafia or Town, the Mafia want him alive. As town he is such a good diversion. As mafia... well it's obvious! I have a new theory, and two options for a lynching.
Option 1: Fortyseven, for the reasons stated above. However I've re-read the entire thread and a couple of little things he said don't add up either, his playing of the inexperienced card was weak, I thought this was his first game but is in fact his second, same for most of us!
Option 2: A bit out of the blue this but Brabbinho is on my radar. I've been pretty certain all along that Brabbinho was town, even after his vote for me on day 1, his reasoning was sound so it was fair game. However I was all set to vote for Fortyseven in post #161 until Brabbinho came in and took the heat off him a little, everyone then voted for Jedi. Leaving Fortyseven alive and ready to continue his role as either the diversionary townie or the genius mafia.
IF and it's definitely a big IF, Brabbinho is mafia then I have ideas for his accomplices too. But I'm happy to just leave it like this for now.

I wish I was mafia as it would have given me a valid reason for voting for Jedi. But I made a massive **** up voting for Jedi on the basis of his "tutor" stance.
I think Fortyseven is mafia along with 2 others. One I'm pretty certain about and another is a hunch. Though trusting my hunch got Jedi killed

I am playing from a unique perspective here. There are 2 people I am pretty sure about but I'm sure that some people will not believe me.
I know where my vote should be going today but I am tempted to sit back and let things happen. As I said went I did not vote last day, anything I do could be taken the wrong way.

Ok, so some thoughts at the moment:
Fortyseven - Mafia? Townie? Genius?
GhostWKD - A complete mystery, who knows??
Pudney - Not sure, his posts are coming across as very buddy-buddy and I don't agree with his line of reasoning for his accusations so far.
Brabbinho - His Jedi nomination was downright suspicious. I didn't follow his line of reasoning and it felt like he was trying to inflame the call for blood.
K1LLSW1TCH - I wasn't at all suspicious until he followed Brabbinho almost immediately with the Jedi nomination.
Egon - One of the most vocal members so far but something tells me he's a townie
Gooner Leroy - Not as quiet as Ghost but still very quiet, just not much to go on really
Psymonkee - Pretended to be dead, very suspicious behaviour indeed.
I feel like I should nominate because I haven't yet, I feel I was overeager in nominating in previous games and now I've overcompensated and gone the other way. This is an early nomination and it may change but at this point I feel he may be mafia and that his actions are distracting us from trying to identify his compatriots. He could be the up front smoke cover for either Ghost/Gooner or maybe even both to just sit back quietly.
VOTE: Fortyseven
