lynching at random in a semi-open setup could be risky... if they end up having a power role and being forced to claim, thats kinda a disaster, plus it might give the mafia a clue about which variation was picked. But that said it seems hard to justify keeping a complete no show around?

anyway it's only been a few hours... but it's interesting to hear strong opinions already. I will say this, people with power roles don't always want to draw all that attention to themselves for no reason. Mr Basketball seems to think less active players are more justified to lynch which seems like a pretty bad idea.

Oh sorry I think Sakuragi meant safe mafia kill, not safe lynch. In which case i think we pretty much agree. I don't think a decent mafia would do us the favor of removing our dead weight for us, assuming the lurker isn't mafia himself.

Given that we need days to be long and the fact that we can have cavendish as replacement lets give guilmon time and also my main suspects are the people who made such hasty wagon early in day1

Most of us are Vanilla Townies. Besides the Cop we don't have any powers to use at Night as far I know, so if we want information we can't just sit around hoping to survive through the Night as we peek under each other's blankets. We have to lynch.
I was about to express similar feelings. Choosing to forego a lynch will not at all bear new information on the day after. Odds are the mafia kill will be hard to make anything of, this early on. And there might not even be a cop among us. So put me in the pro lynch camp.

Now if that first lynch ends up being Guilmon I can't say just yet.

I really don´t understand such a strong statement.

We know there is no third party.
We know there are 8 vanilla.
We know the mafia has 3 members and the town has 3 power roles.
The only thing we don´t know is what those roles are.

We don´t obtain any kind of advantage in killing a vanilla, since he doesn´t possess any kind of information that the other townies don´t have.
Chances are, we won´t kill a mafia.
If we end up lynching a power role, we give the mafia a huge clue regarding the rest of the town roles.

So what kind of information are you trying to attain with the lynch?

Remember Guilmon didn't post in Day Zero (my favorite day!) either. So it's been 33 hours that he hasn't posted, not 6. There's been no trace of him. At this point I still don't even know what series Guilmon is from.

There's no reason to not lynch him. We have a semi-open setup. The mafia knows we don't have any bombs and there are no Greens save the mods, so there would be no sense in them killing him as a "safe kill." Killing anyone else would be better for them.

And if he is absent mafia instead of absent town, well the better for us. There's this idea to keep him around for "safety in numbers," but if he is truly inactive then he just hinders us from lynching.

If Guilmon does have a power it's still gonna be useless if hes not posting at all.

And sure, that flip would alert the mafia of the power roles, but that is also information that could be useful to others. If, for example, theres a faith healer flip then the other faith healer knows there is no chance of a 100% certain block from aiming at the same individual.

That flip is more useful than the power role just sitting there uselessly.

Good question. Lelouch and Mimi ahve some godd points in favour of lynching Guilmon but a replacement would have a strong impact right now. Still, I can understand if the mods want to wait a little while longer.

Patience.
