On the topic of Ice, I'm not sure which "side" of the story to believe. I do think its rather odd that he would come out in the open so early an call for the doctors protection, but if he is innocent at least it would put the mafia in an awkward situation as for who they should hit. But at the same time it all hinges on the doctor not second guessing their choice, if they even choose to protect him.
If Ice is innocent, protected, and the hit target we should know. I would hope that Annie would put something in the posts hinting to the botched hit.
The problem is that if Ice is not hit, for whatever reason, we have no idea what he is. He could be mafia or the mafia may have just gone with a safer target. Thats what I have done on almost every team, go for someone who is a middle of the pack player and not likely to be protected and might even be hiding a role. It's all about numbers and it pays to get one innocent out rather than chance it on a "better" target like Ice.
So there really is absolutely no need to get rid of Ice so quickly. Heck, one game we kept him around for a while to help us (I think I was the one who mentioned it last game, Kash). The fact of the matter is, while he's a dangerous player, we are back to a game where the TOWN decides who goes, not an individual. If the mafia are afraid of one person rather than the collective group, I think they'll have more problems themselves. Ice simply cannot take out the entire mafia team this round.
Ice, you're a smart player, and I can be certain that you've thought everything through. I just dont see why you would say what you have so early unless you were really trying to pull something. At this point I would rather stick with Agass, obviously because I still find him suspicious and that would put me in the lead (I think), but I would also like to think about it more before jumping ship. I have to say, out of all of the conspiracy theories Kash has propsed, I find this the most believable.
