The night air was very cold, in Salem. But the moon was out, full and bright, and countless were those who would count it a good omen, or portent of disaster. But all this talk, despite the paranoia that hung in the air like New England mist, had died hours ago. Now, a mere handfull of shadows danced quietly along the streets, burned onto store-sides and cobblestones by the moon's bony light.

In one corner of town, there was the creak of a door. The crisp air flooded in with wisps of frozen breath. A female turned from her reagents, but a moment too late. There was a motion, swift but exact... precise. And with industrious precision, the body of Mesden, White Magus fell silently limp, and was left quietly in the corner to await a blind discovery.

Across the small town of Salem, there was another sound, nearly as quiet as the first. A form, shrouded in darkness, creeping over the grass. He slid through a window, towards his sleeping target, when, suddenly: a noise. A magistrate in royal clothes there stood, his mind attent to the objects of his investigation, but it was enough. In a flash, the man was gone. The air was soon, again, still and quiet, as the pale sunlight embraced the horizon.

A form crept through the Salem streets this night, quiet and precise, like a machine. Stealing through alleyways to avoid what prying eyes might be lurking in the shadows. He found his target, and peered in through the window: everything was going according to plan. The lock on the door was easy to overcome, and he slid inside, nearly unseen. He leapt upon a startled Inbred Chocobo, Vanilla Townie and slit his throat exactingly before slipping back into the night.

Another, that night, slipped through the night air, hiding cautiously among the shadows. Slowly, he made his way the three blocks to his targets house, jimmied open a window, and slipped inside. His mark seemed to be gone, and the man looked around. Suddenly, there he was, Doppler12, Vanilla Townie, lunging at the man. He reacted quickly, in fear, and lashed out with the closest object on hand. Pottery smashed over Doppler’s head, and he fell. It wasn’t pretty, but it was good enough. The man fled back into the darkness.

It wasn’t long before the sun began to awaken, and the sky fill with color.

The Witch Hunt Mafia has begun.
The funny thing about all this is...

Nobody has been killed by magic, even though this is supposed to be a witch hunt. There was Jeneralissimo who died mysteriously, but we can assume that it's more of that age's lack of understanding about illnesses than anything else.

If this is based on the Salem Witch Trials, then there really are no witches (aside from Mesden, except she was a "Good Witch"); just a bunch of idiots who made very, very stupid decisions as they get caught up in the moment. And this time, we're the idiots.

Vote: No Lynch

Let's see if this works, WHILE we can afford to take a chance. We still have a fair amount of townies left, after all.

Besides, we don't have any evidence from either of the days, because so many of us were posting erratically that we can't single any of you out at the moment.

So I guess if we ignore the very fact that there is still a possibility of there being scum roles and KP even making a post referring to night roles I suppose you might have a solid theory. Again, nobody is able to answer why is there such a rush to do it now instead of relying on it as a last-ditch effort. We've only had 2 lynches so far. The odds aren't necessarily in our favor of nailing a scum role in a game that has more people than usual and I fail to see why some of you are so quick to jump on the "OMG we need to end this game quick everyone vote no lynch now or we're doomed" bandwagon.

Stop voting no lynch, completely stupid idea.

Vote: Newb
FoS: BHS (this would be a vote if I had two)

Moogle and Rygar are probably town since mafiates LOVE nolynch and any excuse for them to do it is great. Newb, feel free to say, "just kidding I wanted to see how people would react to that" anytime now.

Edit: Also, Moogle is totally right.

I want to have your babies! We will start a traveling partridge-family-esque family band. We will be called the Googley-Moogleys, and I will implant mind control messages into the songs so that we can take over the world.

Our bus will also fly.

Unvote: POS Industries

Vote: Newb. I still suspect POS and BHS myself but I also suspect Newb, Sheb, and grthwllms to a lesser extent right now. All of them seem to be doing the scummy question-dodging tactic.

Edit: KP, only if you promise to let me drive. This bus runs on love.

Which question did I dodge?

Also, we've already seen a BG dead.

Perhaps this is who KP was warning?

Really, waiting to use the no-lynch is pure silliness.

Everybody is going to just be all like "no, no, we can wait another day" EVERY SINGLE DAY until KP suddenly decrees that everyone still alive is a winner, having stolen the property of the dead people, and that the game is over.

Please not the second half of my post in which I outline how it'd screw us over so much more if KP didn't bother to assign the good roles. Seeing as they have been assigned it makes no sense then to assign no Evil roles.

You're expecting KP to make sense when the entire purpose of this exercise is to frell with our heads?

...

Did you read my post at all?

I mean, even just a little bit?

1. I pointed out the Night Roles because there's absolutely no evidence of magic being used at all even though this is supposed to be a witch hunt.

2. We do it now because we can afford to do it because if someone dies now, it won't hurt us as much as it will later on.

3. It's more of a bandwagon for those of you saying "Hey, there's a guy voting no lynch, let's get him!" as we actually are bringing up reasons to why No Lynch might actually work. All you guys are doing right now is saying "No, that's a stupid idea, it's impossible." Literally, in Cephrir's case. The only exception is Sithdarth, but his theories aren't exactly something we can test out, unlike this one.
