Мафия 108. Haunted asylum

Okay, let's assume I'm one of those roles you're talking about. I'll carefully explain my thoughts so I don't accidentally reveal myself, so please don't be mad... For me, Locken is not Mafia in 2 out of 3 cases. (I'll immediately state that, regardless, I would still try to play as part of a team with Locken, as a Town member, simply because I like his play style, and that's a fact.) I observe the day and see that, without properly discussing the Night phase, other players start to criticize him. And yet, the probability that Locken is not Mafia is 75%... I try to defend him, while simultaneously hoping that if my bet on him pays off, we'll have a good Town team. Furthermore, I understand that if Locken is not in the Mafia, they already know that if he's Town, he's either Role A or Role B. In theory, they might want to kill both of these roles. Charlie is certainly scary for the Town, but he's also scary for the Mafia, because he can disrupt their plans. I understand that if I openly declare that I believe him and that I'm willing to play with him, they might think that I also have a strong role and that the Mafia won't be able to easily target Locken tonight. In short, it's very likely that I made a mistake by trying to play with him on the first day, and I admit that. Now I have to deal with the consequences, because on the first day, I couldn't have foreseen that I would be questioned and that, in the end, the Town would only have one working theory, where we both claim to be the same set of Town roles. Earlier in the day, I was even wondering whether I should confront Morny or not, considering that I know my role... Then I thought, no, that I'd better play it out to the end, that the payoff for taking a risky bet that we're both Town is much higher than the potential negative consequences of a conflict with him. This is flawed logic, maybe, and I probably confused myself and overthought things at some point. No wonder I was panicking after the newspaper. But these are all Town moves; if I were Mafia, I would play much more cautiously, considering that there is no information from the clues yet and that I could simply lie low...

You know what's best? If we believe him and don't execute him, he'll lead us around by the nose throughout the game until his role is revealed. And if we execute him... well, we've already decided to execute him, so he's just going to lash out, saying that it can't get any worse, and that maybe he'll confuse the Town. Yes, Tox? If you talk a lot, no one will realize that you haven't actually said anything. If we execute a Town member, well, that's sad, but at least we'll have accurate information that we can use to build a psychological profile of all the players today. But we can't afford to keep alive someone who has such a strong influence on the easily swayed minds of the Mafia. When the flesh is dead and rotten, the doctor will cut it off without mercy, saving the person. If we want to save ourselves, let's cut off the harmful thing that leads us astray. Blood must be spilled. I've said everything.

I'm only confusing and misleading today because of the GM's restrictions. I assure you that my effectiveness for the Town will be three times higher tomorrow. Unless the journalist comes to me again, then it will be funny, haha.

> me: "Tox, what's up?" > Tox: "Oh, I can't find it."

So, will you remind us of your interpretation or not?
