"Pass me more chips," beckoned Obama.
"Alright," Teddy Roosevelt answered, sliding him another $1,000 worth of chips.
"I remember when we where celebrating your inauguration G.W.!" Lincoln laughed.
"Not like there turned out to be much to celebrate," Reagan joked. There was a chorus of laughs throughout the room.
"We need more snacks!" John Adams exclaimed.
"Why don't you get us some beer Adams," Andrew Jackson retorted.
"That's Sa-"
"I'll get them," Clinton answered. He headed toward the kitchen and open the door... and the bloody bodies of Gerald Ford and Lyndon Johnson fell on him. "GET THEM OFF ME!" Clinton wailed. Out of the shadows Washington appeared, removing the bodies from Clinton and pulling a note off one of them. Calmly, Washington muttered...
"A mob has formed."

If you need to recap on the rules, go back to the signup thread. (http://forums.eyesonff.com/general-chat/123630-mafia-xiii-signups-presidential-edition.html)
You have 24 hours to vote for someone to be lynched at the end of the end of the day. With 16 people 9 makes up a majority. The day will not start until of the PM's have been sent out and a good amount have been confirmed. (I know PM's haven't been sent out right yet, but please don't get impatient they're on the way!) Note: If you choose to change the password to your account please let me know.
Also, all the town-sided PM's have been sent out with the roles in Green, upon death your role's color will match it's role nature (Protective, Investigative, etc.) the green in the PM was just for organizational reasons =P

The day will probably start when we have about 13 confirmations. Probably. It depends on how many unresponsive, or inactives we appear to be having. No worries about that though, we do have replacements just in case. Right now we've gotten 5 in the first half hour so we should be starting up soon enough.

I'd just like to give the game a bit more time so everyone, account PM's where sent out at 11-12, I don't want people in other timezones, or whatever to just be finding out Account PMs where sent with only 5 hours of the day left or something like that. In another 3, maybe 4 or 5 hours the game will start.
Also, anyone who does not confirm Day 1 is up for replacement.

Anyhowz, I'll bet Jefferson posted his role PM. I don't really have anything to say about that, but I don't think a mafian would post his role pm(by that I mean a fake one), because it isn't very likely that he would have it correct. And also, you can't really tell if someone is inactive or not yet.

Read the thread. It isn't that long yet.
Ike is giving me a bad vibe. Seems like he's trying too hard. But you can't really go after someone the first day because they are trying. That's just dumb.
In regard to inactives, not enough time has past to determine someone is inactive. An inactive is someone who just floats by without making posts for days, or making short posts as excuses for why they aren't around every now and then. None of that applies here in day 1. I do agree that everyone should post and people who don't make the game suck but I think starting down that path at this time just gives the mafia a reason to go after innocents.
I'll stick with Honest Abe for now.

Perhaps instead of panic voting, it would be wiser to look at other members and provide your opinion on them? Asking for contribution but not providing much is scummy, but there must be more reasons to lynch than that.
Not to say I'm not suspicious of Roosevelt though. I will keep my eye on you.

I disagree with most of that. If I was in the lead votewise I'd do the same thing. Saving your skin is a perfectly acceptable move by a town player. It was a little too early to do that but it doesn't seem odd to me.
Quoting people throwing out random votes and asking why is what I meant by trying too hard. Trying to hard to look like you are trying. The earliest votes are random, plain and simple. But I hesitate to vote for someone who is actually stimulating discussion, which Ike is doing.
I was going to make a post similar to FDR's latest one. Clinton has just been joking around and not doing much of anything worthwhile. The other active players are at least trying to form opinions. Clinton may be trying to get his posts in without getting on anyone's radar. Let's try this and see where it goes.

Voting to save your skin in this early stage of the day is not a very town-like move. If he had any reason at all to say that, however, then he may be voting to save his skin but at least he is trying to convince us. Eisenhower seems to be working alone, since he chose not to try to convince any of us. This is a bit of a stretch, but what if he is telling his mafia buddies what to do in the forum and not telling us what to do in this thread. Maybe he is only trying to convince his fellow mafians.

Well this is a fine mess we're in. Now if Clinton is town the mafia doesn't have to make peep for the rest of the day (which I guess isn't that much longer).
Bandwagoning is never good because once the town starts gunning after someone the mafia can just sit back and let it happen. Unless we are very sure of a person's guilt we don't want to do this.
Teddy, that was a foolish thing to say. Also, it's quite clear that part of the reason you voted Clinton was to save your own butt. While this is a reasonable action for a town or a maifa, you didn't even mention it. Mafia are more likely to try to save their hide without trying to seem like they are!
I could be on to something, or I could be on to nothing. But ending the day with a simple Clinton gang up would be too easy for them.

I don't think Jefferson is a mafia member. If you hadn't caught his post, you could obviously tell what it was by the mods reply. They then announced that his role was changed. His role was a pro town, I doubt they'd give him a new role that was pro mafia. It gives the mafia an unfair advantages, which wouldn't have been good since it's the beginning of the game and nothing has unfolded quite yet.
That being said, I don't think he's Innocent. I just think he's not a suspect at the moment. But this seems like common sense to me.

I overestimated the danger I was in, and now I regret it, that is all I am saying.

The frantic manner of Dwight D. Eisenhower's posts are suspicious to me, but my original thoughts were that his role had some kind of posting or voting requirement. I don't think mafia would have that kind of trait, but then again this game has weird roles.
I will leave my vote as is, and pray that whoever gets lynched is mafia.

There are unique roles in play this time. There's no reason that they couldn't have used that sort of requirement. However, I do admit it's very unlikely.

Fine, I guess I have no choice. Clinton deserves another day, as he hasn’t said anything incriminating compared to the others. I hope this isn’t seen as scummy, but I think either one of them could be mafia; it is day one after all.
I have my sights firmly set on you, Clinton. I strongly suggest you contribute more to the game at hand tomorrow, especially as you’ve been given another chance.
We can only hope now that Eisenhower is mafia.

Sweat poured down Dwight’s face as the town marched upon him holding stones. “No! No! I swear I didn’t do anything” he pleaded! “Save it for the judge!” a voice exclaimed from the crowd. Dwight continued to back up, crying “I’m nothing but an innocent bystander! I swear!” But the town would not listen. The continued toward him, Dwight took another step back and tripped over a stack of cards falling onto Teddy Roosevelt’s elephant gun, causing it to fire. Dwight was dead instantly.

Jimmy Carter was out and about. Each morning he awoke at 6:10 for his morning jog. Just as he bent down to tie his shoes and walk out the door bullets sprayed through the walls, the windows. the floor and the ceiling. Miraculously they all missed. "I'm alive!" Carter exclaimed, and opened the door in excitement to tell the others. As he opened the door her heard a *clink*, and his house imploded in on itself creating a black hole.
Jimmy Carter was an innocent bystander. Played by f f freak! Thanks for playing!

Okay, time to get down.
Yesterday was very productive, and overall, I believe it to be the best day one yet. I am aware we killed a townie, but in doing so we also drew lots of information out of other suspects, and managed to set ourselves up for day two better.
Jimmy Carter being killed at night is odd. We are lucky he was just an innocent bystander, but we are unfortunate to lose another townie.
Bill Clinton, I'm calling you out. I want you to post your suspicions, explain why you wouldn't be guilty, and make up for yesterday. A townie was killed for you, and I'm certain that you will be lynched without hesitation if you fail to contribute.

03-24-2009, 07:55 PM
Theodore Roosevelt;2649356'] ...at this point in time we need to start somewhere and focusing on one person may bring out their true colors. This kind of bugs me though, because it was said on day 1. Unless they're either a crap player or they're new, no one is going to crack on day 1 and "show their true colors." That's just how day 1 goes, it's a day for throwing votes around and prompting some discussion just to see what happens. Focusing in on one person is unnecessary unless you either a) know something we don't, or b) the person in question has said something absolutely positively scummy and believable.
Teddy saying what he said kind of sounds like a mafia ploy to me, trying to make an excuse for what he's doing. If it would have been said on, say, day 3 with only a couple of players left I could see why this technique would be used. However, circumstances make me want to question him for this.
However, it's too soon for me to tell. So, with that, I will read back more thoroughly and let y'all know what I think when I'm through!

That is very true. But you never know peole can mes up and if you can read between the lines, you can pick some information out.

Come on guys. The posting on day 1 = mafia argument again? I'm not saying that there wasn't reason there, Laddy is suspicious no matter what role he has, but let's come up with some better reasoning.
I'm still suspicious of Teddy. Here's why. I wish I had time to post this yesterday because I think we could have spared poor Ike.
Theodore Roosevelt;2649307']##Vote: Bill Clinton.
I'm going to go with Bill also. I think Reagen is on to something.
Theodore Roosevelt;2649310']I think it's good to bandwagon at this point. If Bill is mafia he's going to try and do something. this way we can sort of flush him out I suppose.
Ronald Reagan;2649340']
Teddy, that was a foolish thing to say. Also, it's quite clear that part of the reason you voted Clinton was to save your own butt. While this is a reasonable action for a town or a maifa, you didn't even mention it. Mafia are more likely to try to save their hide without trying to seem like they are!
Theodore Roosevelt;2649343']We can't spend the entire day dicking around. There's going to be a bandwagon and someone has to start it.
Someone has to go.
Reagan you're coming on a bit strong as well with your long posts... maybe you're the mafia trying to save your own hide.
Notice how he originally says I was on to something but then turns on me once I vote for him. And how can I be trying to save my own hide when I hadn't been voted for or suspected at all yet? And we also see the posting = mafia argument, which is plain stupid. Next:
Theodore Roosevelt;2649375']I feel like he and reagen are following each other in votes to protect themselves or someone working with them
I could be completely wrong and they may be masons or something. But it seems scummy to me.
I was going to keep my vote on bill for self preservation but I felt that one of those two is scum and we need to get rid of them.
Two things. One, Ike and I were obviously not working together since a VT doesn't know anything else about other roles. Second, he's all of a sudden using the self-preservation argument only after I mentioned it.
I voted for Clinton yesterday because his acting like a fool made me think he was trying to post without contributing. I don't suspect him now. Why? He had ample opportunity to change his vote to Ike to keep himself in the game, but he didn't. Also his posts after getting the heat put on seem sincere and don't appear panicky. Scum or not, he needs to post more.
Why was carter killed? Could have been random, or could be trying to kill off voters for Teddy setting up the Clinton lynch for today. Clinton is too obvious and we need to broaden our horizons.
I also suspect George W. He made a lone vote for Taft and didn't do much otherwise. Mafia tend to spread out their votes on day 1. We have at least 3 scum in a 16 person game, possibly 4. Only JFK didn't vote so its pretty likely that the mafia spread their votes between Clinton and Ike and possibly one other.
That's enough for now.
[M] Walter - Smart Dad
03-24-2009, 08:17 PM
Since I think I've said enough on Teddy, I'm going to go through the posts from day one with the knowledge that there were to townies among them, and see what I notice about other people. Might be a while before I get back to this, but I'll have some time later to play.
[M] Athena
03-24-2009, 08:21 PM

03-24-2009, 08:38 PM
Bill Clinton;2649353'][quote='[M] FDR;2649349']It's not too late yet, Bill. Personally, I wouldn't mind killing Eisenhower, mainly because I think he is more scummy than anybody else right now.
Just to make a point more obvious, I said this hours before the final lynch. I don't want people to think it was completely out of the blue.
Also, I do apologise for being defensive. It was the first vote against me, and that's enough to make anybody feel a little taken aback. I endorse voting earlier and looking for a final vote later, it makes more discussion and allows us to avoid non-voters.
John Adams, however, voted for Roosevelt and said he would come back later and re-evaluate, which he never did. All I want is for him to come back and say something about it, because it's scummy to not touch upon things such as that. It was close to affecting the final day result as well, which is not a good thing. I could forgive him because of timezones, but he is aware of the time in his area, and should of given us some warning if he would be unable to get back on.
I will leave him for now though, as long as we get an explanation of some sort as to why he couldn't come.
Reagan seems to know what he's doing, and I think he will be a pivotal member to the town, if he is so aligned. However, the paranoid side of me says this could be a ploy, and Reagan is distancing himself from Roosevelt. I'm more inclined towards thinking it is genuine suspicion, but when playing a game such as this everything must be taken into account. I only bring Reagan up because he seems like a powerful player, which is good, as long as he's town.
Taft and Nixon seem like good ideas for an early vote though. Nixon's only contribution is an unexplained vote in the early stages, and Taft seems dodgy to me. He bandwagoned after Roosevelt did, and then promptly left. I feel these two may have been overlooked, and maybe we should focus, at this early stage on people like them.
I will vote Nixon, just because I want more activity from him, and he needs to sexplain his vote. I know inactives get replaced, but a mafia member could be inactive on purpose, and Nixon's sneaky vote could of been planted by the mafia. I will likely switch, but this is my best bet right now.

03-24-2009, 08:41 PM
my main focus at the moment would be Clinton. I know I'm really riding him hard (lol) about his style of posting day 1 but I believe it to be some sort of ruse, and that just plain unsettles me. I can't say much for certain because hey, it's just the beginning of day 2 yet and there are only a couple of us really active in the thread right now. But I just can't help the vibe I get off of him.
[M] Eizen
03-24-2009, 08:43 PM
Alright, Reagan, I'll bite. If you've been gunning for me so hard, let's take a look at you, shall we?
Ronald Reagan;2648956']I'm looking at FDR right now for deleting a possibly suspicious post. But the first person to vote usually isn't mafia since it makes them stand out right away. Ike's post case in point. So I dunno.
#Vote: Abe Lincoln
Ike made a silly roleclaim and Abe followed it up maybe trying to fit in. Reaching here but at least it's better than making some comment about which president you are.
You also voted very quickly what seemed like to be no reason at all. Maybe trying not to bandwagon as to seem less suspicious.
Ronald Reagan;2648970']Overthinking is better than not thinking!
You said this and yet accused me of overthinking or posting too many times. Overthinking is never a good thing. That's what Mafia do. The best is to take what you can at face value and look into them a bit deeper when necessary, not just jumping on everything that "doesn't look right"
Ronald Reagan;2649267']
FDR;2649256']Eisenhower is bugging me. His vote on Roosevelt is just to save his skin, and that seems odd seeing as he seems bent on contribution. Perhaps instead of panic voting, it would be wiser to look at other members and provide your opinion on them? Asking for contribution but not providing much is scummy, but there must be more reasons to lynch than that.
I disagree with most of that. If I was in the lead votewise I'd do the same thing. Saving your skin is a perfectly acceptable move by a town player. It was a little too early to do that but it doesn't seem odd to me.
Quoting people throwing out random votes and asking why is what I meant by trying too hard. Trying to hard to look like you are trying. The earliest votes are random, plain and simple. But I hesitate to vote for someone who is actually stimulating discussion, which Ike is doing.
I was going to make a post similar to FDR's latest one. Clinton has just been joking around and not doing much of anything worthwhile. The other active players are at least trying to form opinions. Clinton may be trying to get his posts in without getting on anyone's radar. Let's try this and see where it goes.
#Unvote: Lincoln
#Vote: Clinton
Joking around is hardly grounds for putting someone up. Your constant vote changing makes me wary.
Ronald Reagan;2649340']Well this is a fine mess we're in. Now if Clinton is town the mafia doesn't have to make peep for the rest of the day (which I guess isn't that much longer).
Bandwagoning is never good because once the town starts gunning after someone the mafia can just sit back and let it happen. Unless we are very sure of a person's guilt we don't want to do this.
Teddy, that was a foolish thing to say. Also, it's quite clear that part of the reason you voted Clinton was to save your own butt. While this is a reasonable action for a town or a maifa, you didn't even mention it. Mafia are more likely to try to save their hide without trying to seem like they are!
I could be on to something, or I could be on to nothing. But ending the day with a simple Clinton gang up would be too easy for them.
#Unvote: Clinton
#Vote: Teddy R.
Bandwagoning, though the term is not the best, is the most we CAN do. Otherwise we're into sudden death mode. Yes, the mafia can just sit back once there is a bandwagon but changing your votes 26 times throughout the course of this game isn't going to get you many points either.
I'd have to say that Reagan is either mafia or cult. I don't trust this guy, and not only because he's gunning for me so bad, but because of his long rambling posts and vote changing. I'm not sure I can trust someone that's paranoid.
[M] Trevor - Gay Dad
03-24-2009, 08:43 PM
Eh, no point in prodding them. The mod'll take care of those below the limit, and those just above the limit will probably be lynched starting day four. That's how it usually goes anyway. As far as Carter's assassination goes, I think the mafia just figured it'd be the death that causes the least amount of trouble for them.

I bandwagoned because I didn't feel like anything that had happened on Day 1 would have given me a better reason to vote someone else. Are you trying to say what I did was just as scummy as being voted because someone believed I was in possession of Weapons of Mass Destruction? :p
But really, I agree with you on that I'd like to hear what Nixon was thinking when he voted for Bill Clinton. Seriously, if you're town, didn't it ever cross your mind that doing something like that would seem really scummy?
[M] Walter - Smart Dad
03-24-2009, 09:38 PM
I haven't checked the earlier posts yet. I will if I get bored enough later. It's more fun to react to things as they happen.
Let me respond to Teddy real quick. Ted, you are either really bad at this game or I have figured you out.
1. My vote for Lincoln was mostly random, and I changed it later. I feel the best way to get people talking in the beginning is to get a vote out there. At that early stage Lincoln was as good a bet as any for me. You can't read too much into what happens early on day 1, unless of course you are a mafia trying to spread lies.
2. I don't think I ever accused you of overthinking or posting too many times. Please point out where I did.
3. I changed my vote twice on day 1. That's not 26 times, and that was DAY ONE. The day with the least amount of information to go on. Of course people are going to change their votes then!
Here's the kicker:
Theodore Roosevelt;2649777']Joking around is hardly grounds for putting someone up. Your constant vote changing makes me wary.
You agreed with me right after I posted that, and, in fact, voted the same way! How can you accuse me of something you yourself did? At least I came up with my reasoning myself instead of playing follow the leader.
Gonna vote Teddy now because there is way too much inconsistency here. I'll unvote later if I see the need to, but this guy needs a vote on him.
<b>#Vote: Teddy R.</b>
Also let's keep an eye on Bush Sr. Calling out Jefferson for being so certain about Clinton smells like a mafia trying to flush out a cop. And my favorite Teddy bear also followed suit. I highly doubt both TJ and Clinton are scummates and if they were I don't think he would make that comment. That would be the only reason I see to call attention to it.
Not sure how I feel about FDR. He's playing a good game, but posting enough that he'd slip up sooner or later. No reason to get into it with him at the moment.

I bandwagoned because I didn't feel like anything that had happened on Day 1 would have given me a better reason to vote someone else. Are you trying to say what I did was just as scummy as being voted because someone believed I was in possession of Weapons of Mass Destruction? :p
But really, I agree with you on that I'd like to hear what Nixon was thinking when he voted for Bill Clinton. Seriously, if you're town, didn't it ever cross your mind that doing something like that would seem really scummy?
Okay, well I'm happy that you responded!
Reagan, are you sure you aren't being a tad harsh? Roosevelt is inconsistent and flippy floppy, but I don't get bad vibes from him. I suppose we're entitled to opinions though, and I can't say he's acting like a great town right now.

I actually found it worse that you guys jumped on him right away for that. Why would a mafia ever say something like that?

Because sometimes people are spontaneous and don't think properly. If Jefferson is going to claim something like that, we will want an explanation, otherwise we could just be led into a trap.

Because he could be a new player or a terrible player, so he doesn't know what the hell he's doing. Or it's an experienced player trying to trick us :shifty:
Either way, it just doesn't sit right, especially because he really had no back up, simply "I'm certain he's innocent." Poor. Very poor.

I am likely to change, but I'm off for a while and I'd like to apply some pressure. Keep interrogating people! There are too many directions which aren't leading anywhere.

I agree with Sr. after my horrid play yesterday I'd like to take a little wait and see approach. There are a few of us that are pretty active and many that aren't I'd like to hear more from them before I make any votes or any more assumptions.

Hmmm... What Jefferson said seems pretty familiar to me... Oh right!
Abraham Lincoln;2649362']Wtf? People, why are we voting off the idiot? Look back, and you can see that almost every person in the previous games that wasn't smart were townies. Plus, he said that he would contribute more and be less of an idiot.
Yeah I said that first, but you can't be sure that Bill is innocent. If he doesn't improve, and if I don't find someone better, as I said, he will be getting my vote. I would rather vote off someone who I am not fully sure of then vote off a possibly useful townie.
These inactives I just have to wait on, hopefully they will be replaced. I can only really look at the active people, and on day three there will be a rush of people who don't want to be replaced, so we can hopefully learn something there. As Roosevelt just said, we have to wait and see.
And now Thomas...
FDR;2649745']I explained myself quite well, I was offering Bill another chance because unlike Eisenhower, he hadn't done anything mafia-like.
How the heck is this defensive in any way? It seems to me like you are trying to give him some extra attention for some reason...
[M] Apollo
03-24-2009, 11:17 PM
Expanding on the idea of my last post(I just made the connection)...
I think you are trying to give him a little bit of attention so he might possibly be discreditted a little bit because you feel threatened by him. By saying he is a defensive player, people may not believe his offence quite like they would before. FDR does seem like a very smart player, so thats why I think you are doing this. Now, with your role changing, I find it just as likely that you would have stayed a townie as you would have become a mafia, because George might not want someone to be so confirmed.
Also, with FDR's deleted post, I originally thought that he made a post here that he possibly meant to do at the mafia forum, but he seems too smart to do that right now.

I regret the deleted post. I assure you it was me whining though. I was annoyed the day wasn't starting, but the hosts don't need any hassle.
And yes, thank you very much for pointing the "defensive" thing out to me. It makes me more suspicious of Jefferson.

There where a few posts made before day one which did not count toward peoples total. (You only made one of these so minus 1 from your total thread post count and you have your total post count).

Allright, I'll try to get more into this. I've been quite busy with friends lately, I've been having a blast actually, I simply can't say no if a friend asks to hang out. I've asked for a partner though, so maybe this will increase my activity.
Allright, here's my thoughts..
I'm very interested in knowing Bill Clinton's alignment. Interested enough to kill him? I'm a bit tempted, but I'm not sure if I want to go in that direction. I think it would pretty much clear Reagan if he flipped town, and it would incriminate some of the later voters for Clinton if he flipped scum. At one point it seemed Clinton was the clear loser with a massive bandwagon on him. If he's mafia, maybe it would be wise of one or two of his fellows to also cast a vote on him. Reagan did a risky move and pretty much saved his ass by ending the bandwagon and calling out those who had piled on top. That would be a risky move from a mafia on day 1. They could risk losing two mafia.
edit: If Clinton is mafia, then maybe Taft or Nixon is too. I'm definitely getting some vibes from Taft.
I think Reagan is on to something with his arguments towards Roosevelt. I was thinking some of them myself while reading through this thread actually. He was suspecting both Reagan and Clinton, but as I see it, it's very unlikely that both Clinton and Reagan are mafia. Looks more like he's searching for someone to throw suspicion on. Could just be that he slipped up or missed some information before posting though.
Abraham Lincoln I'm getting a vibe from. I don't have anything concrete, but it's just a feeling of him being a little too helpful without actually being helpful. Sure, he brings some logic and actual helpfulness to the plate, but some of it seems like he's trying too hard, asking casual questions he already knows the answer to.
I'd like to vote for Roosevelt for now, see what that leads to. I... promise to check back in again before the day is over!
##Vote: T. Roosevelt
And roosevelt, about yesterday, I didn't mean that I would expand on why I suspected you, I already said everything in my post then. What I meant by saying I would be back was that, if anyone more suspicious than you popped up, maybe I'd vote for them. Same now actually, I'm waiting and thinking, I'm not holding anything back.

Okay. Guys. "xD." I put the "xD" at the end of the sentence where I said he was being defensive so you wouldn't think I was being serious when I was joking again. Please stop being dumb.
George Bush Sr.;2649826']How about Jefferson, who has yet to answer the Roosevelts and I about our question regarding Clinton? You don't find that dodgy, Reagan?
I told you all I was in school. The bell rang not too long after I posted that. It's 5:11PM right now, and I'm nice and cozy on my laptop at home, ready to post.
FDR;2649831']Because sometimes people are spontaneous and don't think properly. If Jefferson is going to claim something like that, we will want an explanation, otherwise we could just be led into a trap.
I gave you my explanation.
Thomas Jefferson;2649779']Also: Do not lynch Bill. I mean, I'm no cop or anything, but I'm pretty certain he's not mafia. It just feels like all those other times we vote off Townies for dumb reasons :|
What, did you want a huge block of quoted posts and some solid "logic"? Well you're not getting any. I hardly find the things said against him enough to vote for him. It feels like they were said just for the sake of saying something.
I still say we don't lynch him.
[M] Eizen
03-25-2009, 12:22 AM
that is very true Bill.
And John I understand what you meant by that now, sorry for that.
I still think Reagen is trying to flip things and get any (not that there seems to be much) heat off him. I'm glad to see some more people being active but I'd still really like to hear from Nixon and Taft asap. Both have a scummy smell to them, have hardly been active and give little insight into their votes. I'm no mafia finding wizard but at least I'm trying xD

After reading a few posts, I don't really see why Clinton is being attacked so harshly over some Day 1 nonsense. My gut feeling tells me Clinton and Jefferson are town. But I guess my gut isn't that convincing to any of you.
John Adams;2649881']edit: If Clinton is mafia, then maybe Taft or Nixon is too. I'm definitely getting some vibes from Taft.
I don't see how Clinton turning up Mafia would make me more likely to be Mafia too. I am more than willing to solve any "vibe" issues you may have. :monster:

Well if voting for Clinton is dumb, then how about I vote for you and see what you flip? Then we can see why you're so sure about Clinton.
