First off, I noticed Boo was one of the only people who didn't say fingersplints is bad. At least not that I can recall. If she is bad, why not kill anyone of those calling her bad? If you look at MP's game, a lot of people called her bad. This, coupled with her latest posts makes me think I was wrong about her, and she's not bad.
I also think Boo had a point with the MP second forced vote. He said someone thought it would be amusing to make him vote for himself again. The two people who seem most likely to do that, in my opinion, are llama and MM. It's the kind of sense of humour I expect from them. That would mean one of them could be the independent role. One that we'd have to get rid of I assume. If anyone has a take on that, I'd love to hear it.
So now, to the mafia. In my opinion, it's not Russ, TB, Boomslang, FS or MM. Each for their own reasons.
I'm left with these players whom I'll discuss in alphabetical order:
DF- Hasn't raised any red flags so far, but has voted for two civvies (since I know I'm one). He's going for Elo this day. A part of me thinks that if he's bad, he should wait a little to see if his voice will be needed later. But maybe the mafia just decided that they'll vote early and if one of them is going down, they're on their own to make sure no connections are identified. This is true for all other players. But at the moment, he's not really someone who seems that fishy to me.
Eloh- She's the obvious choice for a vote to me. She's busy defending herself instead of looking for baddies. Her choices for voting are horrible, and she does voice suspicion, it's for the easiest target in the game. The only thing that's making me question myself is that maybe she's doing too bad to actually be bad. But she's an option at the moment.
Lorab- Seems honest. Only worry is her defence of Lipstick which could be an honest one, or could be of a baddie trying to look genuine and buddy up to who she believes is a civ. Now she's backing down. Maybe she really thinks Lipstick could be bad, but I can also see her doing it because she needs more options for lynches. A lot of WIFOM here, but bottom line is, I think I trust her more than not at the moment.
Lipstick- Tricky one. My gut is telling me that her answer that she's trying to seem more trustworthy because that's the way to keep her from getting lynched, was a funny way of warding her genuine approach. There are moments of hesitation, but I'm still not ready to vote for her.
Made- like SD, I find that third person talk quite annoying, but that doesn't make him bad :P Made Can you explain why you voted for Boo and why you felt he was the baddest of them all? He's kind of a riddle to me. Not sure how to read him.
MP- Hmm. I don't know whether to trust my initial instincts that this is just civ MP doing what I expect him to do, or if he's trying to throw some reverse psychology at us with his self vote on the first day, and how he was surprised not more people thought he was suspicious. I'm also surprised by the TB vote. I know she deserves it as a player, but does he really think that she's just a lazy mafia? I've seen civ MP use this sort of logic to justify a vote I thought was wrong, but I expect more from him. So not sure about him.
Ninja- She can be a baddie. I see no real reason why she can't, though I see no reason why she could. I get the feeling Ninja is too blendy this game.
llama-I can easily see him as bad, but I would really like to wait until he comes back to make a more informed decision. His vote for TB was pretty bad if you ask me, but if he was in a real hurry, I could see him going with that, since we didn't discuss the Eagle option yet at that point. And llama is one that uses the straight forward options. I didn't like the Scotty hunch either, but him being busy gives him the BOTD in my book. I am far from looking at him as a civ, just want to wait until his return.
MM is one of those I said I don't think is mafia, but I think maybe I shouldn't rule him out
