[Diana Dors]

RIP Frank.

It seems like we have nothing to go on so far. Hopefully something will pop up through the day.

12 players started so I reckon there's 2 or 3 gangsters. 9 players left meaning we have 4 lynches to hit a bad guy.

[Judy Garland]

I don't think that having a strategy is going to help us in this game. It's a coin toss.

This is a pretty odd thing to say. Do you also have a neutral role?

I'm being positive. We know that every one has a power role in this game, which makes it pretty unique, and arguably, the seer/investigator is less important than it usually would be.

The harder thing to overcome is that we have at least two or three people other than the Krays with neutral/evil win conditions. Really, yesterday was a net neutral EV for the town, because we lost two of the neutrals (Jester/Executioner).

The neutral possibilities left include the following. I have rated /10 what I believe their likelihood of being in the game. I realise this level of effort may get me killed, but so be it.

Pirate - choose a player to plunder each night - 1/10 - no mention of items, so what could be plundered?
Plaguebearer - infect a player with plague each night - 2/10 - feels like too a small player base to have an infection mechanic
Pestilence - rampage a player's house each night - 4/10 - there was talk of us returning to our houses, but not sure what rampaging would mean
Vampire - convert others to vampires at night - 2/10 - again, hard to see an infection/recruitment mechanic in play
Witch - control someone at night - 8/10 - this is the exact kind of mechanic that would link well with Last Wills etc.
Arsonist - douse someone in gasoline/ignite them - 5/10 - would kind of align with the theming of the game, I guess?
Serial Killer - kill someone each night - 6/10 - again, would work with the theming, but we haven't haven't seen them kill yet - I guess they might be limited to every other night though?
Werewolf - transform into a wolf during the full moon - 8/10 - too classic to leave out and would be a better suited serial killer role to this game size

Good research Shirley.

Most of this seems plausible, as you say the low numbers mean that infection type mechanics are likely out of the question. I'm not sure that the Witch role really fits either, with so few players and such a short likely run time it would be a bit harsh if the few good power roles got hijacked!

[Shirley Bassey]

Feels like almost certainly it is two: the Kray brothers, right? There's probably two Krays and one serial killer type role - so roughly 1/3 chance of a Pro Village hit.

[Diana Dors]

If the was a serial killer type role wouldn't there have been 2 deaths last night instead if 1? ( I'm not counting the god killed player.)

[Peter Sellers]

I've got the afternoon off as I'm going away tonight. I won't be around for the vote and won't be around much after 1 pm anyway. Pretty useless I know.

Good point about the 2 kills last night but maybe it's 1 due to the small group this time?

[Shirley Bassey]

If the was a serial killer type role wouldn't there have been 2 deaths last night instead if 1? ( I'm not counting the god killed player.)

This is why I reckon a werewolf type role is more likely - they'll be allowed a kill once every two-three days instead of every night.

[Cliff Richard]

Any thoughts on todays lynch vote? I am struggling for reasons to nominate anyone at this point. We need to avoid low vote tallies though as this will help the twins as they could feasibly have the deciding vote. I will pop back on later and see if there are any convincing arguments put forward.

[Dusty Springfield]

It does feel like today might be another of the shot-in-the-dark lynches, unless any of the people who usually show up in the afternoon have made any discoveries during their night activities Have all the remaining survivors checked in yet today?

EDIT: Looks like it's just Sammy Davis Jr who's yet to post today. Will wait to see if they've got any good intel, but if not I'll probably end up just voting at random again

[Peter Sellers]

A very brief visit from George Raft this morning. Remember the 3 post rule guys.
Anyway, im off. I may be able to pick something up later but can't be sure.
Might see you all tomorrow if I'm still kicking.

[Danny La Rue]

Nobody with anything to report overnight then. I do think, with the smaller numbers, that we're going have to be pretty liberal with intel as and when it becomes known unlike in some previous games where it's all kept behind the scenes.

[Judy Garland]

The lack of protection options with the absence of a mayor role in this game may be making players less likely to share any info I guess?

[Dusty Springfield]

There's a bodyguard mentioned in the OP's list of roles, so there might be *some* protection abilities out there. Hopefully!

[Danny La Rue]

Town Support
Bodyguard
Doctor
Escort
Mayor
Medium
Retributionist
Transporter

https://town-of-salem.fandom.com/wiki/Roles

Bodyguard and Doctor are actually classed as Town Protective but Qikz has them classed as Support roles - I'd wager at least one is in the game.

[Diana Dors]

We need to decide on voting for someone, we have just over 3 hours left and we've not decided on (a) candidate(s.)

Is there anyone at all that stands out at the moment, honestly I can't see anything to suggest anyone, so should we all suggest a person, or 2 people and go from there, or does anyone have a decent plan rather than a crapshoot?

[Danny La Rue]

I'm inclined to vote for Sammy simply due to them not showing up yet today.

I don't want the 'last to post' to be a precedent but there nothing else separating us.

[Dusty Springfield]

tbf if Sammy doesn't check in at all then he'll get killed anyway. The next least-prolific poster is Cliff, who's at least on the way to posting enough to stay alive today...

[Shirley Bassey]

I would lean towards lynching Peter for his anti-strategy post. It is very 'chaos' aligned as far as something to lobby for.

[Judy Garland]

Right lets get some votes going.

I'm sticking in a shot in the dark just based on the fact that we often see a dodgy one amongst the active players:
