If things went well, we'd know who not to pay any attention to. Niiiiice and easy.
If things went poorly, as they have.. Hey, nothing happens. Not a problem for us. We're fine and nobody lost a thing and everything's fine.
Hell, your behavior reminds me of last game's enough that I'm suspicious of you being picked as the mafia again - not accusing anyone, going on half-hearted platitudes, not contributing very much.
Vote: Teani
Let's get this game moving on
Unvote: Xenia
Vote: Teani
Just to make sure it checks out.
I'm going to go lean against a wall and look at what people are doing and listen some more. I'm not going to take part in this madness. Sure, I can't say I liked Brayth a lot, but that just means I stayed away from there and had my drinks and meals elsewhere. Doesn't mean I killed him.
If the town fool would have been exposed and voted on by your scheme we would start day 2 with:
- The fool (a likely citizen vote for at least a few rounds, more citizen votes = good) dead
- One extra random (likely citizen, probability wise) person dead
- And likely a citizen dead after the Syssin snipe somebody off tonight.
3 likely citizen deaths to start day 2 with? No thank you. The Syssin don't need that kind of advantage, and that's sure not "nice and easy" round or by any means a way that "nobody lost a thing". For somebody so aggressively shutting down the no vote option, you sure didn't mind a scenario where we potentially lose 3 people instead of 2.
My vote for Karhast remains.
As far as @Karhast goes, considered voting for him. Still not entirely sure I shouldn't. But I kind of believe what he's saying about his weird gambit. It was a bad idea from his part to try it this early and threw some confusion into things, but it seemed a bit obvious to be a Syssin ploy.
VOTE: @Teani
I won't post the entire recap of votes at this moment, because it's long, but here's the current status:
Sibatti (1): Kelliara
Valingar (1): Jami
Karhast (3): Xenia, Buford, Axius
Teani (4): Ilyon, Karhast, Emir, Valingar
Kelliara (1): Sibatti
8 votes are needed to lynch
"The smell of dusty fur, sweet smoke, waiting and patience, a thing that time cannot kill. The moth that candles won't burn."
Karhast's reaction also makes me not suspicious. He was probably just being a stick in the mud, guy could probably use a drink to loosen up.
@Karhast, consider your tabbed wiped and feel free to start a new one. Tomorrow I shall be producing tonight's be tabs.
I'm tired of quiet people slipping by unnoticed, they do nothing to help.
Vote: Jami
Not voted (3): Lehar, Sarita, Pazradym
Of those three, Lehar cast an earlier vote for Axius, then rescinded it. The other two have yet to vote.
"The smell of dusty fur, sweet smoke, waiting and patience, a thing that time cannot kill. The moth that candles won't burn."
Vote: Karharst
"The smell of dusty fur, sweet smoke, waiting and patience, a thing that time cannot kill. The moth that candles won't burn."
VOTE: @Teani
But I'm not moving my vote from @Sibatti.
Cute-Kelli by @Sessizlik.
Vote: Karhast
Omei gives the corpse of a headless cadaver to you.
Omei offers you a quick wink.
Right now I am glancing slightly at those who have hopped on my train, as I believe it is possible they are Syssin riding on Emelle's request to push things along. I'll stick to my no lynch though.

No lynch (1): Teani
The townfolk of Esterport spent what seemed like days squabbling and pointing fingers at each other, trying to find fault with very little information to go on. Small groups formed around Karhast and Teani, threatening to string them up, but no one was insistent enough to go through with it.
Finally, exhausted, the citizens abandoned their conversation. Some gathered together for drinks at the H&H2, while others, wholly spent, returned to their homes.
Night fell.
Day 1 has resulted in no lynch.
The Syssin General is alive.
There are 3 Syssin alive.

The Knight is alive.

The Drunk is alive.
There are 6 Citizens remaining.
Night roles, please PM me your actions!

A crowd began to gather in the middle of Tallow Road to take stock. It took three head counts before it finally dawned on the group that one of their number was not present.
Kelliara.
Initially no one was too fazed, as it wasn't unlike Kelliara to drink into the early hours and sleep late. "Just a hangover," most reasoned, "no reason to be alarmed." But a few skeptical citizens decided to visit her home and check on her, just in case.
They found the door unlatched, cracked ever so slightly. "Maybe she forgot to lock up," someone weakly suggested, but by now no one was optimistic. Finally, steeling themselves for what almost certainly awaited them, the small group pushed the door open. Kelliara's lifeless body was slumped in her bed, riddled with arrows like some sort of gruesome pincushion.
A piece of parchment lies on the blood-soaked sheets. It reads:
"Are you having fun yet? Because we are.
Your move.
--The General"
@Kelliara has been tragically slain. She was a Citizen.
It is Day 2.
The Syssin General is alive.
There are 3 Syssin alive.
Iosyne's Follower is alive.
The Knight is alive.
The Psychic is alive.
The Drunk is alive.
There are 5 Citizens remaining.
7 votes are needed to lynch.
"The smell of dusty fur, sweet smoke, waiting and patience, a thing that time cannot kill. The moth that candles won't burn."
Kelliara claimed she was keeping an eye on a few people, who seemed to be switching around their votes, namely Lehar, Axius, Sibatti and Emir. I know plenty of more people did this yesterday, but I'll start the speculations off today. Seeing as Lehar and Emir both voted for me, I'm choosing between those two and going with:
VOTE: LEHAR
@Teani you're just making me want to vote for you all over again. Best lead? Sibatti. Who do you vote for? Lehar.
My curiosity is on the note from the 'psychic' - why would they put up a note like that? Seems like something that would only invite suspicion and lead to people focusing on Xenia.
VOTE:LEHAR
Kelliara being lynched: Sibatti was the only one specifically focusing on her. It's not unreasonable to think that the mafia probably did that just so that people would level suspicion at her right away, but it's a classic move that is typically pretty easy to see through.
The psychic note: I... don't even know what to think there. Anonymous notes are the only way for the psychic to announce a target without immediately role claiming, but I question its authenticity. Xenia's a powerhouse with this sort of thing, I don't think she'd throw that out there in an attempt at self-preservation. She has shown herself to be a crucial player, so it's not exactly a surprise that a psychic would check her out first, but I'm still leery.
Going back to Kelliara being lynched, and the rationale there, Emir seems quite quick to jump on Sibatti after last night. That would lead me to believe he's Syssin and trying to finish off the plan he helped set into action of making Sibatti look guilty, or he's falling for one of the oldest mafia tricks in the book.
I'd personally rather take my chance on a 50/50 vote with one person that seems suspicious (with some logic) than hopping on the "they haven't said much" train quite yet.
VOTE: Emir
"Don't be fooled by the Syssin's sloppy attempt at confusing you -- Xenia was not investigated last night, Jami was. She is a civilian.
Regards,
pSychic."
