Oh good heavens I hate going first I never know what to say.
'Tell me, Tool, what dominates your thoughts?'
The Imass shrugged before replying. 'I think of Mafia, Adjunct.'
'Do all Imass think about Mafia?'
'No. Few think at all.'
'Why is that?'
The Imass leaned his head to one side and regarded her. 'Because, Adjunct, they are sheeple.'

So, I have this idea of how we could resolve this pretty quick, but I'm hesitant.


The cliché goes: are you thinking what I am thinking?

@Gem: Everyone could theoretically reveal their find result on whom for the night...and only one will be lying (the killer). Then some maths could help figure out who's most likely scum. D:

Now wait a minute no-one told me there would be sums...have to go and brush my teeth, be back in about five mins...please don't lynch me whilst I am gone...that seems to be how it goes for me. :p

Close, but that's not the whole plan that I was thinking about. But on second thought, I'm not sure it would work, since it would require a sacrifice.

Hmm, or maybe it would work. Hmm.

Edit: nah, it would get too complicated, and we'd take a huge risk playing into the killer's hands...

Edit: I really wish we could compare pm's, just to be sure, but we can't so... :p

Okay, the way I see it, there's only 1 of us that gets the correct find, so really it's a 75% chance the result is completely useless.

Dunno. My main thought process is to hope I survive until day 2 for a chance to figure out exactly what my role is. D:

That is:
2 guilty finds means I must be paranoid or insane
2 inno finds means I must be naive or normal
1 of each means I must be normal or paranoid--and one of the 2 is the killer.

IMO, the ideal strat is:
1.) All reveal the target/result of their find (although taking every one with a grain of salt since there's a 20% chance one is the killer)
2.) All vote night (hehe don't lynch me for this please :p)
3.) All have a find in for the next day, target announced on thread before the night-hammer
4.) Next morning, 4 people are alive. Everyone posts their second result.
5.) Another night vote if it isn't obvious from find results that one must be scum. Repeat with finds.
6.) 3 players are left; lynch the killer.

Of course, if the killer lies well this plan will fail miserably.

Yeah, I was thinking something along the same lines, except for the night vote, which actually makes sense. But taking into consideration that one of us would die come night, an actual lynch CF would maybe help one of us. Not right away but in the long run. The danger of lynching someone right away is that we could inadvertently get rid of the real finder. LOL.

Edit: not to mention the fact that the closer we get to figure out the real finder, the closer the killer gets too.
I actually think we all should trust our finds - that way we statistically should be able to get the killer. :p

@ Sixty - Re your first point...I'd say there is 100% chance one is the killer! :p

And much as it goes against the grain, I think in this game a vote for night might (note the heavy emphasis - don't lynch me!) be a wise move. Otherwise the chances are we loose two innos, incl as Gem says, the real finder.
