One thing stands out to me in the first day's voting:

Zarovich's third vote on shafnutz and Malkamaniac's fourth vote on the same bandwagon.

Third and fourth votes on early bandwagons are perfect for baddies, I think. They know the person is not bad and can claim the vote was just a bandwagon one and give no reasons which might get them in trouble. They know they'll not draw attention to themselves by leading the charge and they won't be accused of late-jumping or piling on.

I think therefore that one of Zarovich or Malkamaniac is probably bad. Probably not both, since that would appear to be piling on. Which one to go for? Since Malkamaniac has posted only once (to vote fourth in the bandwagon), I'll go with

Quite. I think it's an OK theory. You have something better?

I guess that'd be two things.

Maybe, maybe not, but I didn't expect anyone on this board to infer that I would mean, where are they at this very second?

NAN and jays have not posted at all. canaan, only once.

It always seems to be the same group of us that are actively playing. Those guys give good input when they're into the game. I want to hear from them.

lol... I almost included him, but figured he's probably trying to play opposite of what kept getting him killed early.

And, no. :lol:

i didnt work today (power outage sent us home at 9-ish...hopefully there is work tomorrow) and have been playing dragon age (and now watching the game). I know jays has been sans computer for the better part of a week.

I don't know what information i can possible give at this moment--it seems like the village is doing pretty good so far. :lol: its way too early to be giving any big time theories, imo--we've only have had 6 pages of game thread and the baddies are complete ruh-tards to this point.

like i said, hopefully i get to go to work tomorrow so i can focus on the important things in life--like this game.

if you all want to axe me, by all means, but I am no baddy.

So it goes. Granted, it's a Day 2 theory, but I don't think I'm not reaching too far here.

Read the middle of page three when the shafnutz bandwagon got going. The jumps from Zarovich and Malkamaniac onto said bandwagon look for all the world like jumps from baddies (or at least one baddie). You can choose to mock me. You can choose to disagree. Or you can choose to think about wider strategy.

I was a baddie last game. We destroyed you goodies. I know the strategy. I could be wrong, but I guess we'll see.

How would they know the person is not bad? There's two bad groups.

This is what I enjoy. The only thing you've done here could go for the same as everyone couldn't it on day one?

Oh so and so voted 1 and 2. They must be bad.

Person 7 and 8 did it back to back they must be bad lol.

So first day went from bandwagon, to random.org, to not allowed to do anything to strategy? You've got to be joking.

Double-negative typo. Should of course read:

Yes, I experienced a double-negative twitch when I first read it. :lol:

That's actually true, isn't it? I forgot about the two groups.

So it means that they know the person is not a baddie in their group.

It also means that Zaro and Malka could both be baddies, but from different groups...

I agree. I would say any vote between 3 and 9 could be considered a "trying to fit in" vote. Vote 1... starting a bandwagon. Vote 2, jumping on quickly. Last votes, jumping on the finish off. Right now I think it's very hard to say anything about vote patterns.

I didn't say anything like this. I said third and fourth votes on a bandwagon are great cover for baddies. I know you won't agree, but it's a good theory.

The theory redwill is posting is direct from the mafiawiki site. I'm not saying it is or isnt accurate this game, but that's where its from.

What I'm more amazed at this point is it's technically day two and you basically can't do anything in these games any more. The last time I was voted off, was because I spoke up and voted first. Now, my name comes into question because I voted in the middle? I think from now on, I'm just gonna fly by like the people who don't say crap until day 6-7. It seems to work for them.

/rant. Gnight.
