I'm voting Vad. He's still afk.
Lynch Vad
Also, if the intention is the try to evolve me, then I would prefer if only one person voted me. 3 votes evolves me, 4 makes a majority. Its too easy for someone to try to play those numbers by withdrawing or adding a vote at the last minute. I would prefer not to evolve at all.
I'm still very on the fence about 17 being mafia or not. Evolving to Blastoise or Wartortle, to me, means an offensive use power. I'm thinking that if he IS mafia, my power was intended to help counter Withdraw for balance. Here's the problem with that - by reducing votes by 2 and also being able to vote differently himself, he counters 3 votes single handedly. Even with my adding votes, he nulls both of them and then he and the other mafia member (if there were 3) cockblock by voting differently. That would leave 3 others of us to vote for him, which doesn't make a 4 vote majority. The math doesn't work for us. The only way for him to die is a kill ability, and today is the only day its possible to evolve me - any other day after this will mean its a majority vote. Its too large of a risk to do it in general.
If we try to evolve me AND reach a majority vote (in otherwords, me and one person vote myself, the rest vote one other) then we are certain the mafia can screw with the numbers by voting differently or together depending on who it is. So evolving me seems to also be not worth it.
I would prefer if we majority lynch Vad. If we do hit a mafia, then we by ourselves the ability to have more vote options next day phase (if our doctor gets lucky and blocks a kill). Doe hasn't been able to block a kill during the night yet, so that gives doubt on him, but we also have GM confirmation that he can repeatedly protect someone from day lynches. So he can't be mafia. As he pointed out, it would be game breaking.
Kayne is an option, but having access to abilities like Doe's would make the mafia break the game as well. However, I suspect that she can't target the same person more than once per game, which would make it possible.
Kaden is a risky option. Sure, he did a powerful move. It could either be the most ambitious late game mafia strategy in the world, or it could be that he's a definite townie. I think the townie option is most likely.
Who else is in this game that I haven't named? Doe, Kaden, Kayne, Vad, myself, 17... That leaves us at six, right?
Honestly, based on powers, I think Kayne and Vad are our mafia.
