I haven't played this game in over a year and I'm still getting used to the new rules. One has to stay active regardless or be targeted. The restoration of PM's is helpful, but can also hurt your position. Rounds have been lost by folks watching who is in the PM window on the user activity screen (under the old provider setup, I haven't checked to see if you can still track who's in the PM screen under the new ownership.) PM's were banned for a while and can be removed at the mod's discretion.
One thing that has nearly always occurred for both townies and mafia is a declaration of being a townie, regardless of role; so old timers like myself take it with a grain of salt. @tj_PE is known for asking everyone if they're mafia and @RBHeadge PE has been known to hold their voting until the third or fourth day as things get figured out; however is usually pretty good at determining who is who (which is why he was our chosen representative at the national mafia tournament a while back). Mafia have hung out their own to dry in order to gain trust with townies, so that is another consideration to keep in mind.
Now, this round has gone haywire with the loss of the both the cop and mayor the first night. Townies can unite and still drive the mafia scum out, but it is going to be tough. It's hard to get a read on the remaining players for this round. Our doc is awol or has their hands tied by the rules, I really don't know. Let's hope the doc gets it right today/tonight with a save.
I don't want to rely on the random name generator again to make a lynching vote today, but it may come to that...

Yeah, that was an interesting round....After my 3rd game, I was trying to find a way to not get permanently banned
Just remember that you haven't pulled a @NJmike PE or @matt267 PE warning points competition / award in the spam thread...

Where is my mind?
This version of EB allows users to hide their online status and their current activity. But there is still a page to view activity. We've been playing around with the rules a bit each round since there are so many variants out there and has been some rules that have caused a trend one way or another. Some things like the mayor have been a trial and error thing. I think it's all @DuranDuran PE's fault that he does so much research. I'm just joking, I like changing up the rules. Keeps it more interesting.

In hindsight, I should have just kept the rules/roles the same as last round since we really didn't get to fully test them. We got 2-3 additional players right before the start, and I kind of panicked and tried to give the townies more firepower. Oops.

You gave us firepower all right. We "glow" in envy....

Mid-morning, Day 3:
The Terran forces retreated back to CC5, but not before the siege tanks destroyed the spawning pool. This would delay the Zerg a while from producing more units, so it would take time for both sides to re-group.
The Zerg hydralisk crawled it's way back to the hatchery. It was bleeding from both ends, but did it's duty to report to Daggoth.
"My Lord, we held the Terran attack, but the spawning pool has been destroyed. By the grace of the Swarm, the Overmind was able to absorb the DNA of the yeerk before the pool was destroyed. I recommend we postpone evolution of the lair and study this creature the Terrans left us."
"Excellent. Let's see if it can be of some use....."
"Hmmm....not much more than a pet. It can't even defend itself. A few evolutionary changes perhaps. Some defense weapons here, burrowing ability there....and how about a dark swarm (defensive smoke screen) to protect us from those effing wraiths?"
"Much better. Let's call it....'THE DEFILER!'"

I 3D printed some cool stuff last year for indoor decorations and managed to give half of them away over the year so now I have to print more.

@DuranDuran PE put me down as voting for @Dothracki PE. They've managed to be on the team that killed off both townies. I don't have anything else to go on at the moment.

Afternoon Day 3:
@tj_PE activated her "desperate and pissed off" simulation mode before putting the com-link to New Gettysburg back online. She became red in the face and started sweating, pacing back and forth while General Duke appeared on screen.
"General, where are the REAL reinforcements? Where's the funding for our supplies? A few tanks and wraiths won't cut it. The Zerg grow stronger every day, and we're getting low on morale!"
"I'm doing everything I can. The 3.5T stimulus was approved, but apparently the Federalists aren't worried about this new Zerg threat. 1T in roads, bridges and other infrastructure to assist with the property boom, 0.5T pledge to the Golden Library and "other" earmarked projects, 0.5T for a new stadium to host the New Dominion Winter Olympics, 0.5T to sponsor the Braxis Glaciers plasma rail bobsledding team, and 1T for endangered species protection toward a new rhynadon sanctuary. I might be able to scrounge up a few million for some scorpions, but I can't afford a battlecruiser at the moment."
"WHEN THE ZERG BLAZE A TRAIL STRAIGHT TO THE CAPITOL, YOU'LL WISH YOU HAD DONE MORE!"
@tj_PE turned the Duke off, then switched to a satellite image of the Zerg colony. Horrified, she noticed the hatchery had evolved into a lair.

Hm... I'm playing catchup in this round. I've been very distracted so far. But one thing stands out to me.
@RBHeadge PE is the big brain and as such is usually targeted early by the mafia. When that doesn't happen it's usually because 1) it's a bunch of rookie mafia or 2) RB is mafia.
I don't see many rookies this round so
@DuranDuran PE I vote for @RBHeadge PE

It's day three. I typically don't get targeted early in the game because it's so chalk that the doctor tends to protect me when nothing else it known. How many games have I been saved within the first two nights? A bunch.
I missed this subtle point by @Dothracki PE yesterday. At first I just assumed @FlangeheadPEAZ accidently cast the critical vote for the cop a second time. but now I'm not so sure. Note @FlangeheadPEAZ vote on the first day again. Not only was it the critical vote for the cop which is incriminating all unto itself, but the timing was a bit late in the day. Like maybe she's the mafia spy, investigated @chart94 learned he was the cop and noticed that there was already one vote against him. The timing was right to take out the cop immediately and signal to the rest of the mafia her alignment. Is it a coincidence that he was targeted that night by the mafia? A game-theory only interpretation would imply that she is the mafia spy and is already in contact with the rest of the mafia.
Is there something missing in my logic?

There is not an ounce of bullshit here.
** Edit that it was TXJ who wat the cop and Flanges vote, not Chart... but this is an interesting game theory. A good stroke of luck for the MAF if it's true. Given the way this game has gone, the townies need all the help/game theories we can get at this point.
@DuranDuran PE I second RBH's vote for @FlangeheadPEAZ since they also gave no reason for their vote for Salty...
