@Ilyon, I was simply addressing the concerns of those not wanting to lynch the drunk. It would be a shame to lynch me on day one because it would gain the town zero ground.
I have always found the counter argument, "don't take a chance to kill the mafia today, they are going to get ahead by getting guaranteed kills that night", a bit short sighted. Yes, that is the case on day 2, but you eliminate the possibility of lynching a town member and you also get a chance to get a read on people in the day one discussion, allowing for a smarter, more informed first lynch vote.
Anyway, I'll wait a bit how things develop. Meanwhile -
UNVOTE: Xenia
Let's be fair, we have nothing to go on, except hunches, wild innuendo, and outright paranoia.
So anyone who isn't sticking to their convictions, at this stage, is striking me as suspicious because it looks like they're just throwing up a bunch of noise to seem outraged, and like they're doing something, when actually all that's happening is time is being wasting.
I stand by my suspicion of @Sibatti. And the rest of the people on that list. And a few others now, to boot.
Cute-Kelli by @Sessizlik.
Going by post counts, we have four people who have only made a single post thus far - these being @jami @Pazradym @Sarita @Teani . I'd go back to my default Teani vote, because that's what I do, but any of them seems like a solid choice.

Sibatti (1): Kelliara
Jami (1): Valingar
Axius (1): Lehar
Valingar (1): Jami
Lehar (1): Axius
Xenia(1): Karhast
Karhast(2): Xenia, Buford
and a few people leaning towards no lynch without actually voting it.
VOTE: NO LYNCH

Valingar (1): Jami
Karhast (2): Xenia, Buford
Xenia (1): Karhast
No lynch (1): Teani

No posts from Sarita/Jami yet, so may swap to those when I show up again.

You people aren't even wrong - the drunk is someone we can get to, whose words we'll probably learn to eventually ignore, and whom the Syssin might stab at night anyhow.
I just hoped on a cheesy success by them outing themselves so I could go on to ignore what that player might have to say.
That aside.. No Lynch is a terrible idea. The off chance of an investigative person doing their thing or the knight protecting someone are nothing compared to the far more probable case of the Syssin stabbing someone. Last game was a lucky stroke combination of Xenia being kinda obviously a power role and being allowed to defend herself, but we lack that luxury this time. I really urge we kill someone off instead.
Vote: Teani
No lynch is a bad idea
Vote: Karhast
Of everything stated thus far, Karhast sounds the most suspicious of them all.
What I may or may not want to do would be based in part on the answer to that since @Karhast was pushing for it. I might vote for him or maybe a no lynch. I still stand by what I said before regarding @Buford and @Xenia probably being trustworthy for now, and to add on to that, if Xenia is a Syssin, I think it would be very foolish to have a list of Syssin published as tenants in the inn out in the open.
Personally I must say that I'm not a big fan of that role, it stalls things as people seem more hesitant to cast votes now.
Now: I suggest you all get a move on. If folk stall for much longer, I'll choose to end the first day regardless of whether a consensus is reached!
"The smell of dusty fur, sweet smoke, waiting and patience, a thing that time cannot kill. The moth that candles won't burn."
The Knight, as we have been told, has a starburst and will be protected the first time. I say we hope for the best and go to bed, barricade our doors and sleep with a knife near our throats so we can cut any nooses or defend ourselves if the Syssin come for us at night.
Partly to move the game along partly because it's ALWAYS a bad idea to vote no Lynch. The odds may not be in our favor to hit scum today, but even if we do hit town today it's better. We have more vote trains to examine, we have more room for discussion, more information to gather. The Syssin would be absolutely bonkers to fight against a no Lynch because the faster they push it into night the less information we have going into day 2 and that also basically gives them immunity to being lynched today.
