Yes, because if they have a credible entry of your identity, it's invalidated if they know it's you.
Also they'll know who you aren't by who is not on your post so it must be one of the ones with credible entry. (if it's an identity that is likely to exist in the game)

Up to you if that is a cost you would like to pay.

I AM LEEKATH. I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO NOT MAKE LISTS.

Hm. Interesting.

Thank you Alphabeta for having sense, though you might express yourself better. Though I do not understand your apparent inability to lie.

I'm kind of paranoid about getting caught lying.

I'll think about it. If people start getting suspicious of me I'll probably make one.

Make it unclear whether or not you are on the list??

It occurs to me that I may have been giving advice to the mafia by explaining my reasoning.
I don't think it's wise to assume that the enemy is less capable than you are, but I guess it's possible so I will stop for now.

It's been 24 hours.
I think most people who are going to form suspicions have done so.

How about getting things started early?

Again, nothing I say is based on anything but stuff you guys know.
No opinions of mine should be treated as anything other than the opinions of a person.
When things are different I will make it clear.

That said I still feel pretty confident about this one and they said nothing to address my concerns.

Okay here's what I've decided with regard to list posts: If michaelblume makes one, I'll make one too to allay suspicion, but I will otherwise not make one because they apparently can have bad consequences. I will totally listen to anyone who has an argument about why I should make a list post despite the bad consequences, and if it's convincing I'll make one.

I'm not convinced by the arguments for futurevision's guilt, but I don't have any better ideas. If anyone else starts a more likely-looking bandwagon I'll probably jump on it.

@modrony i appreciate your efforts to deflect explain your positions and deflect any undeserved social power and this has made me trust you more.

also, futurevision was at the top of my list anyway, so i'm perfectly happy to help get the ball rolling. vote futurevision

(also, man, it's funny how people post in spurts; i have tried to submit this twice so far and each time a new post has interrupted me.)

Vote Futurevision because of residual suspicion from yesterday.

Now that modrony's said something it makes sense. I think maybe we're falling way to group think like we did last game just differently. Last game we just sort of went with whatever the last person who posted said. This time I think that we're falling into a groupthink about having to all do the things the same way and that makes it harder to speak out if think differently.
