I was thinking about Nanook last night and came to the same conclusion about the secret power. It's an investigation of some sort, or worse a way to tell who we actually investigate. Paranoia and all, this is another reason I would want to pick someone unlikely to be targeted in any other way...if he "investigates" the same person, then it's not paranoia anymore is it?

My Big 3 of heavy hitters I'd pick from:
Zsofia, Dio, peeker, Hal in that order, I'd be down with any of them.
Middle group: Pollux, Fluiddruid, Cookies -as I view these guys to stay alive for a while, so I wouldn't mind checking them out, but they're not as "heavy' as the top three to me.

The problem with choosing one of us is what happens if another comes under pressure and has to claim? Then we have two outed Witches, which (at this stage of the game) we don't want. Let's play it low again Today; give him more rope to hang himself with. If one of us has to come out and claim under pressure, then at least only one of us stands exposed. I agree with this, and that' why I had suggested myself, only because I'd try EVERY possible method to get him that didn't involve revealing you guys. But you're right. Hockey is the more outted one. That said, we shouldn't take him on Tomm. I agree with that. If nothing else, he's at least protecting our asses from the OTHER groups that he's not with.

Though I think he picked storyteller because the power REALLY confirms itself. He had pretty much proven himself as town. But just in case, yeah, a "lighter" suspicion target is better. Zsofia, Pollux, Hal, Dio go up in my list then. Peeker is obvious.

It seems that we all have Dio on our list. I'm down with that.
As for the protect...thoughts? I'm pretty sure Nookie knows I know he's scum. If there is anything he or his group can do about silencing the threat, I think they will try. I wish we had a little bit more to trust CIAS with. I think he's for real. I probably would have picked Brewha as the wolf kill as well. I submit either myself or CIAS for protection tonight. I think the two of you are relatively safe. (As safe as one can assume oneself in a Mafia game at least).

I'm good with investigating Dio Tonight.
I was thinking earlier that I'd like to investigate a heavy hitter, but someone that isn't making many waves at the moment and is in the midrange of postcounts (on the theory that someone on the extremes is more likely draw the attention of the Nightkillers.)
Dio is fifth in postcount tally, but two out of three ain't bad (as the song goes).
Let's formalise that.
Investigate Diomedes

True dat. Plus, he and Pollux are the two few people I actually talk to in real life (not about this sort of stuff though. Mafia life is different from Game life), but I always like to know what my buds are doing.
I'm Okay with Investigating Dio

Looks like you're investigating Diomedes.
You have about 5 hours to pick your protection target.

I'm gonna throw out protecting Hockey Monkey[/color] again. Unless you guys have a different opinion, I just don't want the deadline to pass without having someone as a protect target named.

The basic choice is between one-of-us and not-one-of-us.
We should only follow the latter route if we think that one of the others is worth protecting. That is, the loss of a Witch and consequent reduction in our power is less than the damage done by the loss of the other power. The obvious candidate is CiaS; assuming his claim is true, he might well be a target.
An issue with choosing one of us is that we always tend to overestimate how much danger we are in. We know where we've slipped and used secret information, so we have a tendency to think we're more vulnerable than we are.
For Tonight I favour one of us. I just don't know who right now. I'm willing to let someone else take the protection; the thing is we only have three hours.
*Tosses a coin.*
Protect Roosh[/color].
I'm willing to consider changing it; if you want someone else, make your case pdq.

For the sake of avoiding disagreement, I'm happy to protect either, so
protect Hockey Monkey instead.
If we want to change, a case is needed promptly.

So looks like protecting HM unless I see a sudden change of plans. Thanks! Believe it or not, you guys are more organized than the other Night talkers.

In fact, they should "show the signs of a violent altercation."
Those were the days...

I'm fine with Hockey being Protected. If I end up dead, one of you guys is just going to have to be be a Seance person, and I'll talk through you guys instead.

We can still talk here after one of us has died. Dead Witches can have input into the remaining active players decisions.

You protect Hockey Monkey. Diomedes is Undead.
You almost protected the right Witch! Sorry, RoOsh, but at least you consult with the other Witches here at Night.
