Exactly - by definition a game of Mafia is over when the Mafia and the townspeople are at 1:1, because they can deadlock any vote. Which is why a game traditionally starts at 1:2.

Well, technically it can end at 4-4 too - the idea is, once you've got one mafioso for each citizen, the mafia can shut down any vote - if all four of them all vote for one innocent, the only vote that can win is one that kills that innocent, making it impossible for the townspeople to win. Which is why, to those people who say the Mafia only needs 1, yes, but the more Mafia die, the more of us they have to kill.
EDIT: Going to take a nap, most likely. Back to see how well you guys have gotten along without me in a few hours.

This is moving alot faster than I expected. I think it''s better to kill someone rather than wait. Act, then react always seems to work. Also, it's nice to know a Mafia can hide so well... /lynch Nigromante

As one of the quiet ones I refuse to condemn Nigromante. I fight against those who pick on the little guys. I fight for those who have no voice!

After looking at the posts so far... I all ready know who is part of the Mafia.
I won't reveal it though... I'll keep it to myself... and do what I can to vote them out.

Yikes, all this subversive mudslinging is dangerous. I wish this were Resident Evil, where the person who spends too much talking gets killed first. That's you, Thuellai. Don't think I dunno what's up. /Lynch Thuellai

I wouldn't mind voting for someone else, I just don't want to lynch someone without them even have a defense.

You know, I think I know who might be Mafia... and even so, I think I know who might make this game easier.

Just to keep it simple, you see.
Reasoning: It's one th ing to be throwing around the suspicions and all, Im game for that because that adds air to the game.
But changing your vote to 'keep it even' ? Uh uh, th ats just screwing with the game now... He's got till Thursday to get on and argue about if hes Mafia or not and even then we're mostly just shooting in the dark.
I th ink voting of Cer might be a better bet to get a Mafia member as well as expedite further voting. Besides, he'll still be in the dead person thread to throw around supicion to maintain the feel of this setting.
