Mafia: The Last Resort [EPILOGUE: THE END]

Unvote: Sruixan

Vote: Tea

Tea, you're looking pretty scummy to me due to a recent post of yours (https://eagle-time.org/viewtopic.php?p=1686#p1686). First, you didn't find Sruixan's initial post suspicious, which is perfectly fine. However, you go on to say that you don't understand why he got picked on a bit for that - then less than two sentences later state the reason, which is that it seemed like a nervous defense. This is a tricky wording thing - why would you go to the trouble of noting that you don't understand why I (and it was pretty much just me, although you act like it was a lot of people) jumped on Sruixan, when you already knew the reason? Furthermore, that issue is already said and done; why bring it back up?

And let's not forget that you already have a lot of votes on you - in fact, you'd hit the SL vote point when you made the post in question. Why argue for the person who would be your best bet at not being lynched? You're the only one who knows who you really are on Day 1. If you're town on Day 1, your top priority is survival - as far as you know, anyone else could be scum, except you. You're the only person you know is town; therefore, lynching anyone who isn't you has a greater chance of hitting scum. It is almost never in the best interests of a townie to defend someone else instead of him/herself on Day 1. Mildly-suicidal behavior like that is more akin to scum. So why'd you do it?

There are two simple explanations I can think of here.

1. You knew he was either a better player or had a more useful town role. The former might be possible, but you don't seem too familiar with him to have such a meta reason. The latter is impossible (for town), since this is just Day 1 - no investigations have been done yet. Unless of course you're lovers, but then you both go down if either one of you dies, which would make sacrificing one to save the other pointless.

3. You're scum who's decided that it's too late for you, and you're trying to bail a friend of yours out of a bad situation. Judging by the other games I've played with you, trying to do something like that in a way like this seems to fit with your style of play, but I could easily be wrong there.

Bottom line: Based on the evidence I have at hand, and through a large amount of extrapolation which I cannot prove at the moment but highly suspect, I think that Tea is scumbuddying with Sruixan. I'm switching my vote to Tea because he's caused stronger suspicions for me; if he flips town I'll have to re-evaluate my opinion of Sruixan.
