As I mentioned before I am suspicious of both norinel and MGIA... I was already suspicious of burninglife before and norinel didn't make this suspicion go away.. on the contrary!

Well, so far Talitha, Rick and Prince Kael have all FOSed Norinel. (Talitha did earlier, before she FOSed me)

Well, I'm not going to jump up and down and try and stop you. I'm still on Mr G, but Norinel seems most likely to me as his partner.

Well last game we lost since I wote too early so why to brake a tradition?

Vote: Norinel


Since we have three people thinking he is guilty and Rick already wants to vote... Let us hope I'm not making a mistake :roll:

Is that a concession of guilt? Because we can get on with it, if you like.

Not a concession of guilt as much as it is hopelessness.

Gnome? I didn't suspect Gnome! I thought PK/Talitha was the most likely pairing, so I'm horribly wrong or both townies are voting for me... Congrats, scum, whoever you are.

The sun sets upon
Norinel
's body swinging lazily from the Hangin' Tree... and lo, he wasn't scum after all, just a plain old
Townie
. It doesn't take long for the Mafia to dispose of the the rest of the Town, and soon Noob-erry is home to many Italian restaurants...


Norinel
is lynched, and the Mafia win! Congratulations, scum!

Role distribution

Talitha
&
MGIA
were
Mafia
.
PK
,
Norinel
, and
Jaguar
were
Townies
.
Rick
was the
Cop
.
Zero
was the
Doctor

And this just after the Cassandra award got posed... Although I thought PK was scummier than Gnome, I at least broke up the pairs right.

Well scum, I have to congratulate you. Well played especially Talitha. As for Mr Gnome , mumble, mumble, grumble, mumble.

No I must say that
both
of you had the chance to finish Burning on day 1 but chose not to. So you are
both
very patient and it definitely worked in your favour.

Norinel, well you had it all sussed:
I find you [Rick] and Talitha the scummiest of the other four players, but since that pair's also the only two who haven't asked the cop to come out or claimed townie, the cop is probably one of them as well. Since I'm not mafia and there'd be one mafia left, it has to be either PK or Gnome.
The problem was that I also took this as a ‘divide and conquer’ tactic. You were right about me being scummy. All I can say in my defence that I was about to unvote Jaguar in the ‘post that I had to change’.
I was just in the middle of posting a message and up popped a notification – and lo and behold, Jaguar’s got a fourth vote. Which means I will have to change the post I am currently writing (this one). I presume I am allowed to post as we are in twilight.
What I didn’t say at the time was that
I was about to unvote Jaguar
; I didn’t say it because I thought that the townies wouldn’t believe me and the scum would use it against me. Anyway sorry Jaguar. I did enjoy our discussion and I was about to unvote you (although I must admit you were still high on my list).

At the time I was aghast of MGIA's scummy lynching vote, but I just couldn't believe that scum would do that. Just goes to show.

Oh and I investigated Zero. :roll:

So very bad plays all round from me and very good and very patient plays by both of the scum.

The odds were stacked against the town after a townie was lynched and we managed to kill the doc. I don't think anyone played badly - I fully expected to win this game when I saw it was me with Mr G as we're both relatively experienced players.

And it sucks when you're the cop and you investigate the guy who died... been there, done that ... it's just bad luck.

No worries, Rick :) I know you wanted to unvote me :P

And I was waiting for a scum to do just what MGIA did, as it would not be expected. I was just hoping it wouldn't happen in this game :) I always wondered why scum wouldn't take the lynching vote on a townie as it's commonly accepted that scum just wouldn't do that...

Well played, Talitha and MGIA :) Goes to show that my vote on MGIA was better than the one on Rick I had earlier on day 1 :)
I need a new tagline...

Whew. I have to admit, I didn't think I was going to survive today. I was sure I was going to get it for lynching Jaguar.

Well, I don't know about Talitha, but the reason I never tried to finish off Burning was, I figured it would be best to let him live and try to use the overall scumminess he portrayed day one as a reason to get him lynched day two to secure the victory. Of course, probably helped a little, but the fact that he was replaced could have easily thrown that strategy out the window. (another thing that made me nervous)
