20s is normally killed night 1 because he's an elite player. He wasn't... There is nothing in the rules that the Mafia can't silence a Mafia member. "Silencer - a mafia member that chooses to silence one player at night. That player will only be able to make one post the next day only containing who he/she is voting for." If I was a mafia member this game I would definitely silence a Mafia night one to get the silenced Mafia to be considered certified civilian by the town. Except it's already been agreed that silencing does not equal certified civ in anyone's mind.

Even if the mafia couldn't silence themselves, they could just silence no one and a mafia could pretend to be silenced. It's entirely possible 20s is mafia and trying to deceive us.

Going off my previous idea that one of the following:
Canes Odin Fecta GBG Heebs
is Mafia because that vote for Rv made no sense...
Diving deeper into that
Fecta was also the first to vote for SPL. 20's jumped on with his silence vote to sway everyone to SPL.
SPL was on Fecta so imho there is a good chance that Fecta is Mafia.
Heebs is also on this list and GBG was also voted Rv and he brought up the silencer to everyone's attention.
Right now my top 4 targets for Mafia would be...
1) Fecta 2) 20s 3) Heebs 4) GBG

Except it's already been agreed that silencing does not equal certified civ in anyone's mind. Not everyone will think this. And even if they don't certify him as Civilian he's going to drop to the bottom of the target list. We as town people could be down 4 civilians at the end of this day. We need to hit on a Mafia and soon. So we just can't fall in line like sheep.

But he can't explain his reasons to why he voted for SPL. If we don't vote SPL and go in a different direction it would allow 20s to dive deep into why he feels this way tomorrow and we can vote SPL next round.

I still think heebs is worthy of suspicion, because I can't parse out whether it was regular animus or mafia animus that drove his voting last round

Maybe SPL is the barman and killing him today allows 20s another investigation tonight. Unless there is a better reason to vote for someone else, I'm riding with 20s here.

If I am being 100 percent honest, if it were Buster or another former GM with a less baggage in TMBSL I'd probably have given it more thought. But ultimately I think culling deadwood is the best move round 1. A novice player is deadwood.

I don't think we hit the timer until soup shows up and says we hit the timer. so we have until he shows up to figure this out. I'm fine killing off spl now and im fine waiting until 20s explains himself before killing SPL next week.

this narrative that 20s is also the cop and or should also be protected by the bodyguard is foolish.
There is zero reason to protect 20s.
The bodyguard should choose to protect someone else imho.

You also have to keep in mind that if 20s is the cop, it would be foolish for him to come forward this early with a barman, he will be hit with the barman each night and we will not get any investigations.

If you ID a mafia night 1 with a BG and only 3 mafia, it is a no brainer to ID the mafia day 2. The bar man complicates that a little bit. But it's possible you are the bar man and it's back to being a no brainer.

Bodyguard is probably competent and should protect who he wants to protect

what proof do we have that 20s is the cop?
There is nothing.
20s posted right after the question of who got silenced was posed.
He's big bold post was imho just him telling us he was the silenced member of the game. Nothing more.
The Mafia would've had the best luck in the world if they not only silenced a top player but also the cop.
I'm choosing to belive they didn't hit it that rich.

You get more information by not protecting vs protecting him.

Coming out early would only neutralize the Cop and make him useless for the town. IMHO the COP should only reveal himself in a critical point of the game down the road where the town is trully lost. Day 2 is not the time.

OdinIf you feel the mafia could be heebs or SPL why not move your vote to Heebs. Between the two players SPL is more useful to the town.
