Now I admit this is something I've thought of just after I finished my previous post, but the merging thing forced me to keep it stashed away in Notepad:

I believe what I'm proposing here is in fact very reasonable and beneficial to the town, and I find it rather fishy Robb refuses to accept that.

The key here is my preferring to lynch Ghost rather than Robb. The rationale behind that is simple: Ghost claims she can 100% vouchsafe for Robb, Robb can't do the same for her. If they have been telling the truth the whole time, this means that if we lynch Ghost and she flips town, Robb is almost certainly town as well. Narrowing our list of suspects down by two people while still keeping one town vote in the game. That is one of the better outcomes you can expect in this game.

Now if Robb were town, his trying to prevent a mislynch would be perfectly correct play. Mislynches are bad for town, no denying that. However, a lynch of his mason partner he can't be 100% sure about which also happens to clear him as town at the same time, that is a trade he should be willing to take. And I'm finding it odd he doesn't.

Now to GoJays, whose reaction I find on the whole very reasonable:

Ask yourself: why would they do that? At this point, confirmed permanent doublevoter roosh is more attractive. Even the chance of hitting a power role with a semi-random nightkill is more attractive. A mason without a partner is for all intents and purposes just another vanilla townie. Not to mention the fact that we're looking at 5v3 after any mislynch. Unless the mafia nightkill one of their own, but that's not paticularly likely.

No, it wouldn't make sense for anyone to roleclaim mason in the manner that GhostQlyph did, as not only did it out her, it outed the other mason as well, completely removing any advantage that being a mason gives, which is why it is very suspicious.
Well, the mafia already know who the town is, if one is lynched and they're a mason, that completely removes any sort of special ability of the other. (assuming only two masons) So they only have more to gain if they feel the other is actually the most helpful person to the town. If we mislynch it is 5v3 no matter what we do. Which is why we need to lynch the most suspicious person, Ghost and Robb are rather suspicious.
I'm not experienced either, but i've been suspicious of ghost for a while, and her roleclaim is even more suspicious, so hopefully she or robb, depending on which we lynch is mafia.

that....is a very good point, what you are saying here makes sense. I KNOW I am Town, but I can't be 100% sure about Ghost - the fact that her PM appears to have me declared as town, yet mine doesn't for her, is quite odd.

Ghosts claim did come at an odd time, and in Mason chat she did say she would claim if i went first, as she said it was more likely to take heat off me than if she claimed first, then I jumped on - then she went ahead and claimed anyway, leaving me to 'jump on' as she put it. I found that to be quite odd behaviour as well.

I have been telling the truth the whole time, but has Ghost....hmmmm

Oh well, you don't get anywhere sitting on the fence - massive risk this, and sorry Ghost, but I think Baz may just be right here.....

Unvote Jesskitten
Vote GhostQlyph

That's supposed mason is voting for his supposed partner, that's kind of interesting....

Seeing how she's been my primary suspect for a while now....

With 10 alive, I do believe it takes 6 to lynch.

Any mistakes, let me know. I haven't exactly had a good track record lately.

Vote GhostQlyph X2Looking at the evidence so far i am gonna vote againist you ghost
So if you are town and are not lying about not being mafia
You donot have much time to prove your town, Get on proving

You can't prove a negative. Guess I'll sit back and let the lynch happen. I can't argue in my defense any more than I have, but as Damnation said: in for an unpleasant surprise.

It was fun, guys.

No final shot? Think that it's a final conclusion? Really? Not even last-gasp analysis? Coming in like a forest-fire, and leaving like a month-old candle...

Your lack of even attempted defense, and invoking Damnation (who you pushed to lynch) in a hope for sympathy, leads me to find you scum.

vote GhostQlyph

Well, that was rather anticlimactic.

Seriously, though, a townie wins when the town wins, even if they are dead. It is expected that a townie will defend him or herself until the last breath, to try and avert a mislynch at all costs. I'm afraid that after this statement, someone will have to hammer you and end this.

Final votecount

With 10 alive it takes 6 to lynch.
It is now twilight, feel free to keep posting until the night scene is posted.

So we go into the night. I'll just post an explanation here before the forum software washes the numbers away: my previous post and Typhoon's hammer post came within about a minute of each other, hence the discrepancies. Otherwise, I do not have much to say. See you tomorrow (or not).

By the way, am I the only one utterly puzzled by Ghost's farewell? I thought it was odd, so I went back to check and found out Damnation said nothing of that kind. He did claim mafia, after all, so it would make no sense.

Well, doesn't matter now. The solution will be interesting.

Nope, not the only one, but going complacently to one's death seems like a common theme in this game.

Heh, I came just in between your posts so I read Typhoon's but completly missed yours. When I read it I wondered if either you or me has miscounted again until I noticed the time.

Quite disappointed with Ghost too, I haven't voted to give her time to say something more in her defense and that's what we get? People in this game really can't handle near-lynch situations.

I expected at least something in the Mason chat thread and got nothing - some sort of indignation / rant / analysis would have been nice- but nothing.

As an answer to Baz' confusion. Too late to do me any favors, but I wasn't making things up.

Also, Robb, I woke up today at L-1. I didn't really have any time to offer explanations or rants or etc. I do feel betrayed, but you know what? It's a game.

I don't really have anything else to say.
