Which role/faction do you consider a priority for finding and/or lynching right now?
Julii, since the consensus appears to be that they have more strength. MA would be nice, since he either has already been recruiting or is able to now.
Do you have any suspicions?
Nothing too specific, but I think Ampelas is Julii scum. Well that is kinda specific but nothing great other than that.
Apart from Mockra contributing to the speed lynch of Thyrllan today, none of you have been on any of the successful trains. Why is that?
Day 1, I wanted Thyr lynched so my vote was there. Days 2 and 3 both ended with a lynch before I woke up. I slept right through Day 3 which isn't good, but in my defense I'm not feeling great so sleep helps sickness.
Do you have any useful information about role-distribution or game mechanics that the rest of us may be unaware of that you would like to shed light on?
Not that I know of. I will leave some cryptic remark, not because I know anything but just to add tension. Not is all as it seems... because there appear to be silent voters and strange numbers.
Give me one good reason why I shouldn't vote for you when the night finishes, Julii scum!*
Because I'm not Julii scum... Ampelas is.

Which role/faction do you consider a priority for finding and/or lynching right now?
I think the priority now should be finding the leaders/recruiters to stop the growth of the enemy factions anymore than theyve already been allowed to. Im not particularly fussed which faction we go for as long as it isnt mine
Do you have any suspicions?
As I think ive said before I think Rashan could be someone important because of him managing to survive the first day. But other than that I havent got that many leads. Im not sure about HP because he did indicate he had information saying Silanah was julii but then when we lynched him he wasnt so that definitely seems a bit dodgy
Apart from Mockra contributing to the speed lynch of Thyrllan today, none of you have been on any of the successful trains. Why is that?
Well on the first day I was around when the reveal happened but at that time there didnt really seem like anyone else to go for and thyrllan was a bit iffy because we were unsure if this would give MA recruiting powers or not, and I was of the opinion that leaving him alive for a bit was a better way of harming the Julii than killing him at that point. So as I didnt have a target I left without a vote and didnt manage to get back before the Rashan fiasco.
Second day: I was leaning towards Silanah because of all the inconsistencies but wasnt quite sure enough when I had to leave and decided to leave it and see what happened.
Yesterday I just wasnt awake when you guys speed lynched him
Do you have any useful information about role-distribution or game mechanics that the rest of us may be unaware of that you would like to shed light on?
Nope

Because I am teh awesome and you'd miss me when im gone

Julii, since they don't have a lot of losses and are guaranteed to still have a recruiter
Do you have any suspicions?
I'm thinking Gamelon, possibly Ruse, there was something about him I've noticed earlier, but will hacve to go back to see what it was

successfully led the first 2 lynches,

only what I've said before: factions were grossly unequal from the start

Right, it appears I'm all alone, so I've decided to take the opportunity to throw out a few questions. I'm slightly nervous about those guys sitting around with low post counts - there's a group of 4 players with less than 25 posts that I have absolutely no read on whatsoever. That's Mockra, Liosan, Serc and Gamelon. I think we need to bring you guys into the game a bit more - otherwise you guys will be able to just glide right through the game and the rest of us won't stand a chance.
So, answers on a postcard please:
Which role/faction do you consider a priority for finding and/or lynching right now?
Do you have any suspicions?

*The last question was slightly tongue-in-cheek, in case you hadn't noticed, but answers would be appreciated
.
And if any of you who aren't part of the low posting clique would like to chime in with your own answers, please feel free. The more the merrier!
ETA: Well, it seems I wasn't all alone, crosspost with Rashan.

Role/Faction: Julii at the moment. I personally think MA has been able to recruit from the start. They have lost one now so 2 days of recruiting already. If they couldn't recruit they can now anyway. So about to make up their numbers again. Why not the other two factions? Julii are exposed with Thyrllan out and we have infomation to work with in finding Julii members. Also there's a chance their recruiter is dead. Julii we know recruitment is happening/about to happen.
Suspicions: I think Serc is Julii and probably Fener, both seemed instrumental in stopping Thryllan's lynch. And Serc has that little slip, and his vote on Kesso from Day 1.
Voting: Well Day 2 I also voted Thyrllan and didn't move to Silanah as I was in bed. I can't help that.
Role Mechanics: Nothing really springs to mind.
Not voting me?: I could be on your team. To be honest I'm finding it hard to pick people on my team. I wasn't 100%, but I was confident if the switch to Silanah happened, he'd be Julii. Very surprised to find he wasn't. Its making me rethink all my guesses so far now. Serc and Fener are problably the only 2 I'd be confident on if I had to guess people randomly.

Well, since we're talking suspicions, here's a couple of mine 
Korlat is Julii. Thought this since day 1, and it's been painfully obvious from reading his posts. Also, his answer to his own Q1 proves it.
So, Korlat is looking for a Brutii or a Republican, but not a Julii.
I also think that Gay Lord is Marc Anthony. This is gut, so I realise this argument is not going to sway anyone... but I've been paying attention to his posts, and he has played this game very nonchalant since the reveal of Thyr. By that, I mean he's been on a bit, left a few comments, not really pushed for anything at all or really come up with anything himself. Reason - he's known since the moment Thyr was revealed that all he had to do was wait, and his rival would be dead. He didn't have to do a thing to aid it.
Anyway, tis beer o'clock

OK, I'll step up and answer them:
1) While continuing trying to find MA does make sense - given the win conditions handicap I have a feeling MA must have some pretty awesome powers at his disposal, I am starting to become a bit concerned that we're developing some Julii tunnel vision. I'd like to see more emphasis on trying to find Brutus, and the Republican leader, assuming one exists. (Now that I think about it, everyone is going to say something along these lines, aren't they?

I'm here. Crazy fast speed lynch guys. There is a reason we don't do that. We just gave the Julii the power to recruit btw. Awesome.

Not sure. I probably would have pushed for Serc. Someone sent me info last night that confirmed that the Julii number hasn't changed since Day 1. I would have tried to steer away from a Thyr lynch. Realizing that it would have made me look guilty and I would have had you on my ass the whole time
but I can deal with that. Just sucks, and now the game just got a little harder for us.

What the hell is going on?
Either we have the most incompetent night killers around, or there are multitudes of defensive powers at work.
Also, I've come to the realisation that today will be a good day for MA, and I'd like to offer my support for him and the Julii when I get lynched.
But still, 3 people dead in 35 pages, 2 of those mod kills? Whoever has killing powers is clearly doing something wrong. I'll go check in SH at the end of today.
Also I have no real objections to being speed-lynched, as it would make my weekend schedule a bit easier.

Does anyone have a problem with giving Gamelon a free pass until sunday? Not sure if this borders on Meta and if it does please disregard. But if I had a good role and had RL in the way I would definately seek an extension so as not to hurt my team. Just a thought. I have no idea what faction he is on. Could be mine. There is really nothing to go on as there are so few posts.
