Jason, it's not the vote alone. I would have liked to have heard all explanations for Nole votes. Yours, however, just didn't sit right. You didn't read ahead of time, you were rushed for time, but you stuck around and wrote two follow up posts. And nowhere in that time do you even check to see what the current vote count is? How can you think "Gosh, I better get my vote in before it's too late" without thinking "Gosh... What's the vote count right now?"
A deadline is a deadline, so it's possible you're telling the truth, but I don't buy it.
I still don't like the dialogue between Jason and W_M. If Jason gets lynched and we survive to see tomorrow, W_M will be at the top of my suspect list.

I didn't vote because I wanted input from others before doing so.

I find noodle more suspicious than I find jason. However, if I vote for noodle, the mafia will have their choice between noodle and jason - if either is a townie they will die. I do not want to give the mafia the choice of who dies tonight, and I'm going to bed now, and it requires two votes on noodle for a lynch.
In the interest of not giving the mafia the choice between one people, I'll join the majority:
Vote: Jason
I hope you're right.

Looks like I'm cactus - and so is the town. A semi educated guess at the identity of our 4 resident scumbags: CG, Xanth, soyl, fire.
vote: colorlessgreen
I honestly don't think he saw my role claim, which is unfortunate. I don't buy his reason of not wanting to give the scum the choice - even if he's right, they'll just kill whichever one of me and noodle isn't lynched, so there's no difference.
Not that I think anything will make a difference now. gg mafia, and my apologies to the town for missing the PM last night, which may or may not have made a difference.

Jason: I have been back and forth with you. I wanted you to survive Day #1 and stated that on Day #1. I also stated I did not care after that. I then began to suspect you . After that I became one of your top suspects and you think I am mafia. The thing is I give off mafia vibes every game I play. I just do. Even after reading my own posts I think I sound mafia. Oddly enough I believe you. I think you are the cop my ally and you are not on my suspect list for the moment so I will not jump on this bandwagon. Water Moon: I am becoming more suspicious of Water Moon and I was neutral on her before. Seems to me WM have provided the manual on "How to play mafia" this game but recently been less helpful than before. She seems to be after me and I know I am Town. So WM you are on my radar but I will not vote for you yet. Goltar: I still think town Xanath: Neutral Soylent: Neutral Bob: No comment CG: I want to say something here but will hold my tongue - for now Noodle: Useless whatever the case. Despite having 2 votes on him there hasn't been a word. And although my vote is currently on him and I suspect him I'm still bothered by voting for a non poster cause it is a crap shoot. I don't want Jason lynched. I think at least 1 or 2 currently on his case are mafia and think he's being band wagoned. Since we must get this right I don't view him as our safest lynch. To the town - re-think your vote. Is Jason really our best bet?

I am going try to swing what may be a pivotal point in the game.
Let us suppose that Jason is telling the truth. Past experience states that those who role claim statistically are telling the truth most of the time. At least in the games that I have played.
Why then are WM and CG hell bent on securing his lynch? Little discussion and debate?
It was CG who masterfully used Noleclub's and Merlin's posts against them. It was a great play on CG's part regardless of whether they were mafia or town.
He accomplished his goal. Both were killed. But unfortunately both were town.
The fact that Jason is down for the count and CG so eagerly pressed the knife to his juggler bugs me.
The player with the 2nd most votes is Noodle. And their seems little support to lynch him.
If you are town.....who tops your suspect list? Is it really Jason? If you were Jason and mafia would you role claim to be the cop now? I wouldn't.
In my opinion there is a better option
UNVOTE: NOODLE
VOTE: COLOURLESS GREEN

PS: If we get this right it buys us a one more chance to screw up. Noodle is not casting votes so even if he is town and we lynch him we have only removed our weakest link. He should top the town's list for next lynch assuming we all survive that long.

According to my count:
Jason: 4 Votes ( Xanath, Colourless Green, Water Moon, Goltar) Colourless Green: 2 Votes (Jason & Firehorse) Noodle: 1 Vote (Soylentred)
Bob & Noodle have not cast any votes this game. If Xanath, CG, WM & Goltar are all mafia we are screwed.
We would require the other 5 to get together and vote one person and maybe that was the plan all along.......

Night 3 is over
Colourless_Green has been killed.
-------------------------
I think this is where I step in to draw a veil over proceedings. The mafia have 4 players left against 3 townies and both the doc and the cop are dead. I can't see any realistic way back for the town from here - even if they (somehow) manage to lynch a mafioso every day despite a mafia majority they will still lose to an NK every night without the doc.
The mafia were Goltar, Xanth, Soylentred and Bob. Bob was the Seamstress and only used his ability on night 3, targetting Noodle. Jason was the cop. He investigated Merlin night 1, nobody night 2, then got lynched. Colourless_Green was the Doc. He protected Noodle, then Goltar, then Soylentred.
This game was designed to be hard for the town, based on the fact that the town has been dominating our games for some time now. In my view, the game was certainly winnable, but the town's luck was not great, and the mafia played well. Jason's post #132 was close to the mark, as it turned out, but it was all a bit late.
Well played to the mafia.

Congrats to the mafia. You didn't give much chance to the town this time.
I was quite mad at you when you killed me after finally being a plain townie =)
What's next?

Noodle did not help our cause as he did not vote. We were sort of screwed.
Congrats just the same. Very good round and enjoyable. Like to see a repeat.
