An Answer
Yes, the conversation between myself and Josh actually happened. Most of the logic behind why I did it is included in the conversation. If you don't feel like reading it, I was using my role to search for a Mafia member. If Josh was mafia, then there was a decent chance that they would target me because of my role and he would be lynched. If he wasn't then a townie knew what I was, no harm done. I figured that Josh would be as good a target as any because he tends to be slightly angrier when he's mafia than when he's town.
Thus, you should all know that I am the Vote Reporter. To clear up any confusing on the role: Each night I choose someone. During the next day, if their vote would behave differently than it appears to in the main thread, the difference will be reported. The first night, I choose Josh so when he voted, I saw that he had no vote and that it actually affected someone that it wasn't targeted at (more or less).
A Question
I know all of the roles now except for two. Would it be better to post those to the main thread or something else? It would be handy for them to be public because then the 'uninformed majority' becomes informed, but problematic because the Mafia would then be able to choose more powerful targets. Opinions?
A Bit of Hope
There are 6 townies and 2 scum left, if I read correctly, so we're still in good shape. It's late here, so I can't really make any clear suspicions, but I'll look through everything tomorrow and see what I can see.
A Problem
Does anyone know how we would kill the Mirror Voter if he is scum? For a while I was trying to think through a plan involving Leafsnail's Vengeful Voter, but I couldn't quite make it work. Ideas? (Other than to hope that that is not the case?)
