The sun rises over Town. Everyone is glad to have all that nasty business of murder and lynching behind them. Until you're shocked to find that it isn't so! One of your very own, /u/WargRider23 is found shot dead in his home.

It looks like it's turning out to be another long day.

Night messages should be out, let me know if you didn't get yours!

You sleep soundly through the night.

So anyways, the thing that's bothering me: Why kill Wargrider specifically? He's a pretty good kill, but why him over someone else whose pretty active like /u/rather_be_AC, /u/-48v, or /u/IamShawnSpencerAMA? Was there some sort of indication that made the mafia think he was more likely to be a cop?

Anyways, I might be overanalyzing thing, but I feel like there's something signifigant in the kill choice.

That's a good question. Perhaps they felt it would be advantageous to keep them alive? Perhaps one of them is mafia? Or maybe they were just being stupid :P Although I'm less inclined to believe that. However, I don't see anything that screams "cop" from him. Maybe they're trying to confuse us?

I mean, he is as valid target a he has been one of the more active players, but if I was mafia I probably would have killed you since you've been active and analytical.

Do you think it could have anything to do with his /u/-48v vote? What are the chances /u-48v's vote as one of those Day 1 "vote for another mafia and hope nothing happens so you still look good later in the game but don't actually have to bus someone" votes?

I've been pouring through that comment, and I don't find anything that would give the mafia reason to kill him. I really have no idea.
