FuruyAkai, a Civilian, was lynched.
shinichi'sapprentice, an Informant, was killed by the Spy.
What about N1? Though honestly, getting rid of Informants could be a smart move in some circumstances. They lead back to the Spy and unless they have some influence on the lynch, may not do much else. Also, if the Detective goes down then the lists will be revealed to uncover the Informants and so discount them from the numbers to narrow down the Spy a bit. Eliminating them stops this. Though obviously the Spy would have to be confident they weren't going to be captured quickly because otherwise they would just be wasting time they could be aiming for the Detective in.Raiden wrote:Now that's a twist I like!

The hypothesis that the Spy did not kill last phase because s/he did not identify their informants might be true based on this newly gained informantion then.

Maybe the Spy thought it would be worth it since there was a larger pool of players at that point...when the number grew smaller, they decided to wait and send an Order to make the Informant(s) ID themselves again? It is just a guess from my side to explain it. Do not take my word as gospel (yet)!Stopwatch wrote:What about N1?Though honestly, getting rid of Informants could be a smart move in some circumstances.

However, while I can see the potential in that I doubt most players here would try something like that. So, unidentified Informant seems a bit more possible in this case, even if not the only potential solution.
Bandwagons cannot really be stopped when there are no solid lead to go by in these types of games. It's a part of human nature to want to be part of something larger... V: It happened in previous phases too. Bash announced Day 1 he would vote Togop and others followed along with the result he got offed early.Stopwatch wrote:What may be more key is how quickly people jumped onto FuruyAkai after the first vote on him was announced. There is no guarantee the Spy is in those people, but I'm going to be pretty annoyed if that was all Town in that bandwagon :x.
I'm leaning towards the spy not knowing who SA was for that same reason, but I've never played this before so my hunches might not be very useful =x If they did know who SA was, then we should be able to find some similarity between one of SA's posts and someone else's (I've looked but I'm tired from driving back from Seattle and didn't find anything =V), or as someone said earlier, the order was to not say anything at allJecka wrote:As for SA dying...I don't really see how this is a good thing for the spy unless s/he had a good reason like SA never replying to anything, or fear?? I dunno :x
