Mafia 103...the play

I think that pap and JB are both scum, although I doubt they're the don. I also highly doubt that there are 4 mafia left, as I believe we started with 11 people, and LG wasn't sure if I was in or not in the begginning. To potentially have 4 scum out of 10 townies wouldn't be good.

Either some people don't know what to make of it or they're trying to devise a way to protect pap. Either way It seems no one is willing to commit yet. Is it really that hard to see who's guilty yet? Pap's only said that he doesn't understand why JB is gunning for him and therefore thinks JB is scum but it's a very simple question I needed to ask myself (which I've pointed out twice), why would the mafia make such a bold move? They have the town in the palm of their hands and then one of them tosses accusations like that? No way. That only means that JB is innocent to me and has picked up on pap's game. If he's mistaken I still wouldn't turn my eyes to him because he's an experienced player and, if he was mafia, would be laying low and just trying to egg on the innocents against each other (like Rich did), not making bold claims and putting the spotlight on himself
Neph, I know you are newer to this game but it is not so easy to jump. Scum often times come out of the woodwork to try and end a game like this. The only problem is we can't make the wrong choice here. I for one am going back now to read JB and Pap's posts and place my vote. One or the other is scum from what I can see.

Yeah I see what you're saying but regardless of the choice made it'll make the identity of the other fairly clear. One of them is mafia whether it is pap or JB whoever gets lynched will pretty much confirm the identity of the other. I'm almost positive of that fact and knowing that and taking into account my earlier points pap is much more likely in my eyes.

Please splain this to me! I can't see it.

I'm interested in an understandable response to this too. Regardless of the identities of JB or pap, Rich has had me wondering about him for a while. If he doesn't stray from the way he has acted so far he's next on my list of who I'm voting for. He's too ambiguous and not proactive enough to come remotely close to looking like he's hunting scum.
 
They could both be scum playing an elaborate game. Are they? probably not, could they be? yes. I did not say they where I just said that it is possible.

Why? If it is that improbable.

I agree. Both are very experienced players. That said, I've played more than my fair share of games with both of them, and neither is looking exactly golden right now.
 
I just don't see what sacrificing a teammate in such a bold manner will accomplish. If pap indeed gets lynched the only real strategic value to that would be maybe building some trust among the innocents but what experienced player would think anyone would trust them more jst because their hunch was correct? Other than that I don't see why this could be some sort of elaborate scheme. Maybe you can enlighten me to that though. I'm always interested in learning a bit more to be able to play better. Just trying to attack this logically right now
