Why? He's making perfect,obvious sense from a town point of view. We don't want the mafia knowing our power roles. He pointed that out to Malevolent. You misinterpret his meaning, call him out for it, he tries to explain how you're wrong, and now he's scum for it?
In fact, now that I'm here... who isn't on your suspect list? 'Cause, quite frankly, everyone should be at this stage in the game. Be suspicious of everyone.
And this bothers me too...
Why not? The only people you shouldn't have some kind of read on is anyone who has not yet posted. You should have some kind of opinion on every single person who's posted so far, even if it's a "I don't know how I feel about this person yet.". Many of your reads are likely to be wrong, sure, but it's a start. That's how the game is played.
To say that you have no reads so far suggests to me that you're trying to get away with flying low and letting other people make the cases. Having played mafia your past two games, you should know quite well that scum like to let townies lynch other townies if they can.
