OOC still:
Alright. Whew. That was quite the undertaking.
So, the no-lynch wagon had to start somewhere.
K1ngHoward was the one that voted down that direction first, and since then he was been quiet. The only interesting thing to note past that was that Prizyms, mariosatr, ansoro, and digitalmez had quick, short posts, with the first of the four joining the vote early on and the other two getting onboard later.
Coolio and Defiant had quite the battle going on: coolio originally no-lynch voted, but Defiant called him for some strategy, and after voting for each other they both unvoted. Not much can be learned from that scenario except Defiant is really liking his character. Could it be a cover? Possibly. But a damn good one seeing as no one is voting him while he's in plain sight.
Niatsu was the one who voted for endersteve, and so far nobody is backing him.
Still have around 13 people voting for the no-lynch, and there is definitely mafia among that number.
Let's see what happens if I call a person or two out.
unvote
vote K1ngHoward

Translation: Wait WHAT? I never voted for Endersteve. What are you drinking? Did you get some of that Calypso Rum from the shifty bartender? Sheesh! You best be careful next time!

>>>>I voted no lynch for the sole reason that the game doesn't begin till the first kill occurs. I have played many games and the night has always hit right when the roles are passed out and more evidence can truly surface than just speculation that everyone seems to think is enough info to lynch a random person for doing absolutely nothing to them at all.
>>>>Some people have pulled up good points though that we do have a slightly higher chance of knocking someone out in the mafia that could help us, but we have the same chance that we will kill someone who could help us find out who the mafia is or fight against them (i.e. sheriff, doctor, towns people for votes). I believe we can't just assume that someone is a mafia member from baseless suspicion that does nothing, but divide everyone into their own separate camps creating nothing, but a hunger games aspect with nothing to win, but everything to lose.
>>>>Another good point that can be taken into account is that the amount of people who would be killed is unknown to us. I assumed (from previous irl games) that it is only 1 person a night, but being a different style of "Mafia" we could also assume that it is more than that. The game could be extended to longer periods with more fighting and bickering if the kill count was set to only 1 a night which would give the towns people a higher chance of succeeding if we don't end up killing ourselves off with our own bullets.
>>>>The Mafia wants us to divide and conquer ourselves so they can sit back and watch the fireworks. Everyone loves to play into the Mafia's hands on that, with many jumping onto the boat that we have a chance to kill a mafia member so let us aim blindly into the crowd and "maybe" hit them.

Sorry for being totally away from this for the last day (or two). I had internet issues at my University. So anyway, I still don't think a no-lynch will be beneficial. It could always be helpful to see what people vote for and why.
I stand by my decision of a no-lynch. The risk is greater to get rid of someone who may have a potentially useful ability than it is to out of sheer luck lynch a mafia. I find the risk vs. reward to not be worth it. I feel however that on the contrary to what endersteeve said, it seems more reasonable for the mafia members to push a lynching happening. This way they eliminate more people much faster. So i feel a No-Lynch is necessary, however i am a bit suspicious of people who are pushing a lynch to happen.

VRISKA: I of course encourage you all to follow in suit and not meddle! Meddling meddlers will NOT 8e tolerated!
VRISKA: After all, those who do not speak are not 8enificial to keep in the game anywho.

Hm, one more thing I will say about the mystery man:
Omar and him fall into the same boat for me, you can take this several different ways but only one is key, and which only another knows what I'm talking about.
*changes answers to Jivvi's questions to How Suspicious: Very*

And here comes the separation of people as we stand facing each other not trusting the friends around us as we point our guns every which way to see someone flinch, to give us a reason to blow their head off. We are guilty if we don't vote, we are guilty if we do vote, we are guilty if we lynch, we are guilty if we don't lynch. Somewhere in that crowd the mafia is laughing their heads off as the people's guns turn on each other as he sits there with his popcorn enjoying the battle in the arena we have placed ourselves in. No evidence to go off of, no evidence to prove anything other than the words that we write can we "try" to prove our innocence, but every word is read as "guilty guilty guilty" even when we type our reasons to vote a certain way.
This boat is hell on earth.

VRISKA: I'd like you to explain how waiting helps us?
VRISKA: I'm doing everyone a favor, Omar isn't even speaking!
VRISKA: If we wait, we have no guarantee some fancy inspector or whatever will even step forward.
VRISKA: K1ng, what do you suggest?
VRISKA: 8ecause in my opinion, the KILLERS would vote for no one. This way, they can just kill every night. They'd never have to worry about defending themselves.
VRISKA: With the chance of them 8eing chosen to be killed, they must talk and discuss in order to avoid 8eing chosen.
VRISKA: And going on with the idea of the Mafia avoiding speaking so that they aren't chosen, Omar has not spoken a word and therefore he is very likely to 8e in cahoots with the pirates!

I tend to look more harshly on people who don't give actual reasons for their votes.
K1ngHoward gave a rationale for no lynching which I respect, as well as ShinyShark, myusername22(unvoted), infernofox, Vatumok, and balloon98.
Prizyms, mariosatr, kraby1, ansoro2112, Marskid, HypeBurst, cooliorules(unvoted quickly), digitalmez, grimmjowforever, and nitasu987(unvoted) did not offer an explanation when they voted no-lynch. The easiest argument against this is that they really do share the opinions of the people who did offer their views, but I like being able to see their actual reasons for their votes, rather than using the words of someone else.
Personally, I am having trouble keeping track of everything going on with 30 people in the game. Many different lines have been drawn, and everything is going to get very, very complicated. I'm still not no-lynching though.

I might change my mind. Defiant_Blob's text is way to different to not be noted. The nature of the way his text appears is plain annoying and evil. He may not be in the mafia, but he is definitely evil in some way.

VRISKA: My nature of the way my text appears?
VRISKA: Ohhhhhhhh infernofox, how culturally insensitive! ;;;; )
VRISKA: I am speaking to you through a modified version of Trollian, and my way of speaking is my quirk, or my way of being unique and standing out! Not that I need too much help standing out.
VRISKA: If you want a 8etter explanation, click my signature!

Nobody knows which roles are and aren't in the game. You know that as well as I, and asking that question just seems suspicious for you. It's like you're trying to divert attention off of yourself by asking impossible questions.
The Ladd changes his mind again. The Ladd realizes that he must do something annoying too. The Ladd will now talk in third person. The Ladd feels the need for a new nickname. The ladd thinks THE BOuLDER is a good choice
THE BOuLDER is satisfied with his new name.

VRISKA: I was actually making a point.
VRISKA: You claim we can simply w8 for the Power Roles to do all the work for us.
VRISKA: When the truth is we don't even know if we have any Power Roles that CAN help us.
VRISKA: Assuming we do is far more suspicious than assuming that we must actually do work.
VRISKA: I actually want to do something myself and not rely on the competency of those who we aren't even sure exist!!!!!!!!

VRISKA: My deepest apologies if reading colored text is toooooooo difficult to read for such a sarcastic Ladd.
VRISKA: As well as understanding that 8 means either "b" or "eight".
VRISKA: It appears I have overestimated my companions once again.
