A day ago, a single innocent man was discovered, dead, in the streets of New York City. The fears of the people are as strong as ever; after bringing justice into their own hands and lynching one of their own, the people of NYC thought they could sleep easily in the night, but their sense of security was ill-established.
A shot in the dark strikes a citizen, we'll refer to him as Thuellai in order to keep his identity secret, piercing him through the heart and quickly ending his life.
In addition, a man we'll refer to as Cernunnos met an equally deadly fate. In his sleep, a toxin was injected through his veins, polluting his bloodstream. The deal was finally sealed when a gloved hand strangled him, killing him on the spot. The only thing left to leave any clue to his killer was a card with the word "GUILTY" written on it.
=======
Alright! The sun sets on Wednesday at midnight. I need 6 votes to lynch.
Good luck.

Well, this is just great. Three people have been killed. At least we know the serial killers exist. Cern is dead, saving us the trouble. Now the question is, who killed who? My guess is Cern was killed by the Killers, and Thuellai was killed by Mafia. Now, Cern's death could tell us something. Last time, some people kept their votes for him after everyone else jumped ship, and some jumped way to quickly. My vote will soon be on it's way.

/lynch mcfly
This is totally just a starting vote, and may change. But he was the first to jump ship from Cern, there by causing a chain reaction. That is no big deal, considering Cern is dead now anyway, but it makes me wonder. Why the sudden change? He gives a halfway plausible reason. But, that is not enough to convince me.
I think Cern was killed by the killers, because if he was telling the truth, they wanted to keep him from saying more. Now, your wondering, if that's the case why would a killer change their vote? Simple, one had decided to kill Cern, and then changed their vote to throw off suspicion. My vote goes to mcfly based on this.

So none of them were Mafia?

I shall explain my reasoning for this at the time I didn't believe cern was telling the truth and wanted to see who would jump ship if i changed my vote, as we still even with out my vote would have had enough to kill cern. After that occured I noticed a large number of people quickly jumping ship. Which would point to them being mafia and in on it with Cern..

Maybe, but maybe not. The mafia wouldn't kill one of their own, which rules out Thuellia. And it's possible Cern was mafia. So, who knows.

After careful consideration my vote for this round goes to wk.
/Lynch Wild Knight
My reasoning is simple. Goats would not have been mafia and neither would thul as they were both killed the Mafia would not band together to kill a non mafia. But WK was quick to jump away from cern as soon as I did. As was Hero2490. Now when i changed my vote I knew we would still have 7 votes for him A Majority and what would be needed to get him lynched regardless so people changing their vote under the guise of "Getting a majority" were using it as a pretense at first to shift attention away to kill a non mafia.

The mafia MIGHT kill one of their own, IF it seemed like he was going down anyway.
I believe that the "Guilty" note on Cernunnos was done to throw us off the trail. Whether it was the mafia or the serial killers that did it seems irrelevant to me, as we have only one lead.
\lynch Presto
Think about it. Cernunnos was killed by the mafia, or by serial killers. Either way, the only one with a motivation... was Presto. There is no question he should be our target.

Maybe one or two, but most (including me) jumped ship in order to lynch Someone! Most were not mafia, but a few were. Now, how to figure out who it was...

WildKnight, anyone who argued to lynch him had motive to kill him. That guilty note points in only two directions. Either the killers thought he was mafia and killed him because of that suspicion. Or, they were upset he revealed himself and were afraid he might reveal more information and killed him to stop that. Obviously Cern was either a killer, or just knew they were in this game. For my money, I think anyone who changed votes for him early falls under heavy suspicion. Mcfly fits the bill.

Uh... yes. Most everyone fits the bill by that logic.
HOWEVER... we now HAVE to assume that there are serial killers. Since Chuck posted about them, he was probably one of them. Its possible he made up the identity of his two fellows and wasn't really aware of who all the other serial killers were... but its a very stupid risk for us NOT to kill off the final one of the trio.
Anything else is a total shot in the dark, no matter how much logic you think there is to your "system" for choosing targets.

Why do you think I'm going after mcfly? I think Cern lied about the other two in order to get back at those who targeted him. I'm willing to be that mcfly is a killer, or at least mafia. In either case, we win. Or are at least one step closer to it. While Presto is not a bad idea, he can wait.

Dude... you're picking McFly based on WHAT? That he voted for or didn't vote for Chuck?
Why on earth would we wait to kill Presto, who we have good reason to suspect, and instead kill mcfly based on some profile that any number of other players qualify for?
Is there a reason you're protecting Presto?

None what so ever. In fact, I'm hoping he dies the next night, as that would save us the trouble of eliminating him. But, my question about mcfly is that he was the FIRST to change his vote, and had no real reason for doing it. His only reason sounds good, but that's all.

That makes almost no sense.
I'm going to stick to pushing for Presto... the chance that he is a killer is just too great, meanwhile mcfly is at best a shot in the dark.
