What I was trying to get at was that FL seemed only too happy to jump on 2nd, a classic Mafia move. And then again this round she's only too happy to vote for me 2nd, letting someone else lead so she won't be so accountable.
IMO, it doesn't make sense for the mafia to jump on 2nd. Not saying it can't be done, but a more likely strategy would be to hang back and watch which way the wind is blowing and move that way....let the townies lynch themselves and act like you were led along. Only reason they might hop on a little earlier is if one of their own looks like they may be lynched.
And I think the mayor is only going on the fact that Coler said to watch me like a hawk since I didn't go along with the plan wholeheartedly.
Anyone expressing ANY hesitation in that plan is highly suspicious, and I'll tell you why. Before the game was busted open by Coler/JohnLarson, the mafia was moving along nicely with four innocents gone. For Coler, JohnLarson, and BKW to be lying about who they were at that point made ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE. The townies still had the numbers, and a race to the finish between the townies and mafia HEAVILY favored the town. As a mafia strategy, that would have been one of the dumbest things they could do.
And FL has never really backed up any of her other votes to date, even joking about jumping on the bandwagon. Very suspicious to me. Lynching ppl should not be humorous.
You're right. Lynching an innocent should never be funny. Keep in mind, though, that the mafia does their best to run the townies around in circles. So, when one of the mafia has been identified, watching them squirm before lynching is a BLAST!
