Yeah, this is they point. Some of your arguments only work, Shade, if Jeod is town. While I don't think Jeod has played "optimally", I don't think he'd be a burden to town if he's town at this point.

Why would he use a kill so soon? Sunflower had one last game as scum and didn't use it until the final "math" part of the game.

Shade's a new player, and (baring this game if he is) has never been scum. He has been third party however. It's hard for any of us to get a read on him, but he typically is pretty wild. He also might have a bit of a grudge against Jeod from Star Wars, possibly.

Irish has confirmed that No Lynch is a valid target for 2nd place.

I'm the patron of justice, what do you expect

I suppose we could always theoretically put up "no lynch" as second most voted option, and it would give us a lot more info than a standard no lynch vote, but if there's overall overwhelming support for voting Shade I might consider saving this ability for a more contentious moment.

This really is just how Shade talks. It's not the best, but I don't think it's a dead scum give away like the rest of you. Basically, I have an ability that lets lynch vote skip a player IF and only IF they are not scum. If they are scum, they get lynched like normal. If they are town, the vote goes on to the second the most voted thing. I can use this ability ONCE, unless I'm wrong and the person I target actually does get voted as scum. In which case I get a redo later.

What if I told you guys I had a way to make lynch a bit safer, but it requires us to have TWO people we might want to lynch.

I don't Jeod is too OP, but then again, I don't think he's being entirely truthful about what he can do as well. Also I think Shade might just be trying to do what everyone did to him last game. The salt might still be fresh.

I'll admit, I have meta arguments going the other way, but my point is, I'm not on the vote Jeod train.

Though in my waffle I'm now back towards Jeod being more towny, or at least not scum. Stirring the pot is a prefered strategy D1, and whole I considered it from the start, I wanted to hear him say it himself. Besides, if he was really going to do anything hostile, why would he TELL us about it beforehand and then sit back and do nothing as people flipped out, eh?

I see what you did there.

"That's just how he is".

There's no early hammer this game though, correct? And an ability that caused early hammer would be.... weird...

Honestly, if Jeod is lynchproof, voting for him would at least confirm or deny if he's BSing to an extent, and a no lynch on D1 isn't the end of the world (as we've established last game). That said, it's too early to throw my hat into either ring. I'm on the fence.

If, theoretically, you did get lynched, and turned out to be non-town, I'd call you the new Shade

I wanted a big picture and when I tried to copy it the link broke because google is being stupid with image search now

I was going to make a joke, but sadly I can't find a good picture of a "bluff" as in the landform.

I've only been playing Mafia for about a year (since the Death Note game). I introduced Shade to the concept when I hosted my Cuban Missile Crisis game back in November or so.

My records indicate my first mega-PM chain with Shade began April 28, 2016, which is actually more recent than I would have expected.

If you are so concerned then might I suggest learning the vital strategy of "zipping it"

Well you're clearly itching to tell us or else you wouldn't have posted

Why don't you share with the class then, hmmm?

I'm not overly concerned either way

What a silly name.
