Tulip, is what you said about brainpower, etc, in the main thread true? If it is, is there anything we can do to help?

It's true, but I can't think of any way for you to help; the solutions I have in mind mostly involve trying to fix my sleep schedule, since it's gotten thrown off in the last couple weeks by the increasingly-early daylight. I suspect that the problem is actually just tiredness caused by that.

We could send you reminders that it's your bedtime when it's your bedtime?

I'd recommend playing with your gut instincts. Not to the point of recklessness, and it's good to be analytical, but trying to come up with some an algorithm for mafia is the kind of thing that'll end up making you more confused than you were to begin with.

"making a better suspicion algorithm" is, as I'm using the phrase, synonymous with "making my gut instincts less awful". I guess that wasn't as transparent as I'd expected? I have a general habit of referring to the workings of my brain with computer terms, basically.

Anyway, I managed to grab myself an extra 40 minutes or so of sleep last night. We'll see how much that improves my thinking today. I feel a bit clearer than I did yesterday, but given that I only just woke up, that doesn't tell me much about whether I'll stay clearer throughout the day.

you could try asking yourself for eachand every post "how does this help the town?" and if the answer is "it doesn't" then be suspicious. in practice it is pretty tiring to do this about each and every post.

there, now i've made all of us happy, and the bit of scum theatre made the three of us (modrony included) look a little more towny.

Thoughts on this?

I think modrony was lying in modrony's roleclaim as LEEKATH
I am a TRACKER. I can 'hear' where a single person goes each night.
I do not think it's wise to share my current info as it will help mafia efforts.
-- if modrony was just able to hear where someone went, modrony wouldn't know modrony had found a light, so I think at the very least modrony is able to hear what a person does in addition to who they visit.

So, it is possible that modrony thinks the light was protecting a mafia member. If modrony tracked pistachi0n then modrony is right about that, but then pistachi0n should drop to the bottom of modrony's suspicion list and you should be at the top of it which is not the case, so i don't think modrony tracked pistachi0n.

perhaps modrony is just asking for help from a light now that modrony has outted modrony's self (though I still think we should try to off modrony tonight).

perhaps modrony was suspicious of the people without listposts and tried to follow one the other night and discovered they are a light. if that's so, then it's not anthusiasm (still on the suspicion's list), not michael (modrony is voting michael at this time), not futurevision apparently since they made one already, so that leaves alphabeta, but we know alpha isn't a light. But maybe the light thing is a redherring, maybe modrony doesn't want alpha to write a listpost because he knows alpha is keo and thinks alpha would make it too obvious that alpha is keo?

Either modrony is trying to distract people from something else or she doesn't know what she's doing. I don't understand what she's trying to accomplish.

Edit: saw shoal's post. I think she probably is trying to cryptically ask a light to protect her. Town probably has one too, no way is the only light a mafia member.

Or maybe she is actually the town light? And realizes she probably won't last the night and is letting us know.
