Oh, and if I was a misdirecting Mafia trying to accuse innocents, I probably wouldn't have kicked off today by telling everyone to drop everything and find the Mafia, would I? I mean, there's bluff, there's double-bluff and then there's barking bloody insanity.
So you think that I'm barking bloody insane then? Because at the start of today I basically said that we now need to drop everything and find the Mafia before they get an even stronger position over us.

Yes, you're right. We're basically exactly the same. The only difference is that you've been in on every townie lynching and I've been in on one (that I wouldn't have been if MaliA's post screaming "I AM THE MIME!" hadn't come while I was away from the computer).
Oh, and that I've got solid reasons for accusing everyone I've accused.

Gets me off the hook for what? How was I on the hook before today? Are you suggesting that my accusing people of being mafia is to get me off the hook for... er... accusing people of being mafia? How does that make the remotest bit of sense.
It makes sense to me, perhaps I'm not vocalising it properly. The way I see it, the odds of us lynching a Mafioso are now better than they've ever been, and as they're highly unlikely to want to lose people, they'd probably try and stir attention away to other people.
That's assuming they're not willing to sacrifice one of their own, which would probably be obvious from voting patterns which are - as has been said - all anyone really has to go on.
And what better person to stir attention away from the Mafia than someone who has been pretty quiet up until now?

First things first - we DON'T know the Mafia aren't willing to sacrifice one of their own. They've not been in a position where they've even had to consider it yet. Every day an innocent townie took a lead in the voting fairly early and then got slowly/quickly bandwagonned to death.
Second - the chances of lynching a Mafioso are only "better than ever" if you ignore the fact that they control nearly a third of the total votes. If so much as two people vote for the same wrong guy, they can all pile in and that's it, game pretty much over. The fact that neither you nor Lace has been Mafia-rushed by now makes it pretty certain that you're both guilty.
The Mafia were only ever going to be under threat of losing someone if one or more non-Mafioso started to make accurate guesses as to who the Mafia are and somehow managed to get the rest of the town along for the ride. An agent provocateur would be a ludicrously risky strategy given that they just needed to keep doing what they were doing in order to guarantee a win, and that the town can't co-ordinate their votes so someone would need to independantly convince 5 out of the 6 neutrals available in order to get a Mafia lynched.
The Mafia didn't need to point the finger today, man. They just didn't.
You.
Craster.
LaceSensor.
You're three of the four mafia left, and KevR is my best guess for the fourth. If I get killed tonight, please, please, PLEASE, for the love of God everyone, understant that THAT'S what I'm being killed for.
