Noooooo, undercovercops are undercover to infiltrate criminal organizations. Noone can secretly join the mafia. Anything that game breaking had better be mentioned in the rules.

Mes thinking like a mafiate though, doesn't really help though. Mafiates only need to make somone else LOOK guilty. As a matter of fact, they have to do so, in spite of them knowing that person is innocent.

Townies have to find someone guilty out of a crowd of innocents.

I'm trying to say that the play style really doesn't translate well.

And having put some thought into it, I'm now more suspicous of CmP. I know he said he was basically making a joke, but it would have been better to vote for her when she wasn't in the game, or died the first night or something. THEN it would obviously be a joke.

Now he has a reasonable excuse for his actions, but really, I'm not too sure how I feel about him trying to use that as a reason for voting. (Voting is serious business, as he well knows.)

And now Skeletons post that actually sounds like something a serial killer would say (infiltrating another group, only to turn on them), combined with his current avatar and title of "face of a killer", is influencing me in a very superficial sort of way.

Anyway, isn't it supposed to be night soon?
