Pokemalfia Day 4

[Kaden]

Wanted to respond to some stuff during the last day phase and didn't get the chance. Fortunately, some of it has already come up, so this will still be very relevant.

2. Kaden is on my list now. Kayne's actions make me suspicious as is, and Kaden (and myself) began to follow her lead when she suggested (a good suggestion) to eliminate inactives. Following that, he then began giving short posts about the need to vote against Doe, more or less just using vague arguments of why the second most active and probing person in the game should be removed, and Kayne immediately agrees and votes with him, helping derail a vote that's in place while knowing we need a strict majority. He isn't probing and asking nearly as many questions as I feel he usually does and is coming off more as just riding out a victory. This suspicion is going to be called a weak claim, but I disagree with that.

There's been this theme of "trying to vote off one of the most active means he's mafia" and I really don't understand that. Activity has absolutely jack-shit to do with someone's alignment. Look at the last game. A ton of inactive townspeople and the people who were active were able to completely railroad everyone. One Day 3, the situation wasn't far off. A handful of inactive and only a few really active people who will be able to largely dictate the flow of the game.

I withdrew my vote against 17 because I didn't think we'd be able to lynch someone who can reduce their votes and wanted to try and go for someone who we might actually be able to kill and who, to me, seemed to be playing suspiciously. If Kayne's information is correct, that was a really bad call and only made me look more suspicious. I can't really do anything about that now.

I'd rather give Kaden a chance to defend himself before claiming he's mafia. I've read his stuff, and I think his suspicions about me aren't completely illogical, even if I am trying to rally the town.

I appreciate that. Like I said, last game was a crushing defeat because the super active people were mafia. I'm probably just being overly sensitive about it, but Ashe spent a lot of time in Mumble after the game was over bitching (and rightfully so) about how ridiculous that was.
