We use him to our advantage by eliminating the chance TH kills a townie(more likely than not) and Brodeur is neutralized as a threat because as soon as he tries to use his power on someone else in order to help the mafia he is killed by TH and we don't have to worry about him.

fwiw, Gonzo is pretty obviously good if you believe I am good.

I mean maybe Brodeur is just bad at the game. If I were in his situation I would have owed up to the logic being sound behind the lynch or at least work my hardest to find someone more suspicious than me. Calling everyone against him an idiot is just not good gameplay. Classic evil Vidae.

I repeat, I have never witnessed a situation where trying to force a guy to use his powers in a specific way has worked out.

I don't think this is something we should bank on.

Then we let TH have the game by the balls and I'm not so sure I want to trust him. He hasn't done anything to prove himself.

So Shane's one other modded game was Sesame Street, which had a roleblocker and a hooker which was essentially a jailkeeper.

If he followed a similar structure with roles, you'd have to think both would be in this. So we know he targeted Rob, but has anyone really disputed that Brody would not be the jailkeeper rather than a roleblocker?

Those who haven't voted, do so or give us other options.

Why should I tell you?

[Rob S]

Brody is the kill; it's that simple. Even if he is good (which there is absolutely a chance of), it is absolutely the right decision. If no lynch is off the table (which it should be day 2) then Brody gives us the best chance of killing a mafia member. Nobody has come with any concrete evidence to protect Brody and there is concrete evidence that he blocked a member of the town.

Yeah, his story is sketchy as hell. On 99/100 Day 2s, finding a killer in the way we found him would mean an instant lynch. But whatever, let's believe him because we can have Brody just jailkeep him forever.

Or something.

this sounds like a typical mafia response. everybody that defends him should not automatically be looked at as mafia. it's day two, it's not like the mafia would come full force trying to defend him on day two. some of your other posts have been weird as well, especially when compared to how you usually play.

He could be either. The point is, there is no better option out there for a kill. It's bad gameplay letting Brody survive, good or evil. You have to use logic here.....the town outnumbers the mafia in the game....it's a 50/50 chance Brody is mafia....you take that chance if you're the town every time. It's simple math really. You also don't give the mafia a chance to win a power up at this stage of the game, that's also a pretty simple concept to figure out.

I'd rather have a vote for one of the Baines when I go down for people trying to play Rob's logic game.

[Rob S]

Brody, you know it's the right play....if you are good (which is totally possible), it sucks, but it's the right play. It's just like when I was the princess in the King game and came up bad when framed.

[Brodeur]

Whatever. This is what happens when I draw the biggest douche possible as a character.

[TitanHope]

I'm not lying about my vigilantism!

Speaking of which, "vigilante" is such a serious word. I'm thinking about a lighter name for me.

How about...God? Yes. Yes, that's nice.

This is odd to me. I never buy this theory whatsoever. The mafia isn't that stupid anymore.

I don't know why people are so convinced Brody is evil. His explanation is perfectly plausible; I don't see how he was "caught".

[OSUGiants17]

I'm heading to bed, see you all in the morning when I will post my vote

[CashmoneyDrew]

I'm out boys. Will try my best to keep up on mobile, but I work from 9 am to 7 pm tomorrow. Gonna keep my vote where it's at for now.

I do think there is a good chance I am a a safe claim for the mafia. Biggest douche sounds like me. Just sayin'

Off to my robotics class.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Only 12 people have voted. Disappointing. I won't be up at 730 so good luck to all the non evil people.

Never said they should, simply said I'm taking note. If we're going based on track record here I really hope nobody follows you on this.

Brody, if not you, who do you suggest we kill? Killing me just lets us lose a good guy while learning nothing.

it just seems like an attempt to try to overly affirm to everybody that you are good, and that's how i've viewed a lot of your posts. odd game from you so far.

Well to be fair, I am.
