Pooky Mafia! Day 6! Noone's dead

[Poker]

[Mackay]

Hmmm.

I killed on nights two and four, but assumed everybody targeted Shteven due to the "multiple" nature of the wounds. Looking back I notice that my other kill was listed as "multiple bullet wounds" also.

Perhaps you're onto something, Poker. =)

Also, darq's been absenteeish, and I know how maf groups love to make their inactive ones the killers, in order to put themselves less at risk. I like it.

vote Darquiel. She may well have been blocked.

[Jedo the Jedi]

I'm not sure if the multiple is something to look at or not. I went back and looked at the deaths and while there may be something to go on, I'm not sure how much stock we can put in it. Still, it's better than nothing.

vote Iammars because I would rather get rid of the participating scum than the non-participating. It makes things easier for us in the long run.

[Talitha]

[Amb]

Unvote Talitha
Vote Darquiel

[Poker]

All right, then, let's go with Darquiel.

Unvote: Iammars

Vote: Darquiel

Hmmmm - the claimed roleblocker survives. Mackay the claimed vig survives. Probably no doctors left due to 2 being dead. So who did you block Talitha? This time you may have blocked scum. And Mackay - did you kill the GF?

I dont know that I believe Talitha fully at the moment, but if she blocked scum here it may well help.

[Jedo the Jedi]

It seems I'm going to need a reread now. I'll see when I can devote enough time to that. In the mean time, answers to those questions will suffice.

[Mackay]

I did not make a kill last night. I think it's pretty obvious the knife killer is an SK.

I'm with amb - Tally, who'd you block?

[Talitha]

I had to check my sent PMs cause I forgot.... dun dun dun dun dun DUN... it was JEDO.

[Mackay]

Sweet!

vote: Jedo ohhhhhhh that feels good.

[Kaoru dono]

inclined to agree with Mackay, but just wondering if it's possible that the mafia spent the night trying to look for the second spy.
Eh, it'll be hard for poor Jedo to defend himself against this, but I think it might be worth hearing out.

Good point.

I love voting Jedo, though. Let me keep it there for now, pwetty pweease?

[Amb]

Im not paying close enough attention it seems

[Jedo the Jedi]

Too bad I don't even have a night action.

I can do nothing else to defend myself, so if you are going to lynch me, then do so quickly. I will not contend any other accusations because it would merely be a waste of time. However, I will still do a reread and post my thoughts soon.

[Talitha]

I want Kaoru to answer about this 2nd spy and then I'm probably voting Jedo.

Julius Rosenberg: Mafia Traitor.

Julius Rosenberg was born in New York on 12th May, 1918. He attended the Hebrew High School and the City College of New York, where he graduated in 1939 with a degree in electrical engineering. Later that year he married Ethel Greenglass, a clerical worker and an active trade unionist.

During the Second World War Rosenberg was employed as a civilian inspector for the Army Signal Corps, but was dismissed in 1945 as a result of allegations that he was a member of the Communist Party. Rosenberg now opened a small machine shop in Manhattan with his brother-in-law, David Greenglass. However, the business did badly and Greenglass left the partnership.

In 1950 Klaus Fuchs, head of the physics department of the British nuclear research centre at Harwell, was arrested and charged with espionage. Fuchs confessed that he had been passing information to the Soviet Union since working on the Manhattan Project during the Second World War.

The FBI were desperate to discover the names of the spies who had worked with Klaus Fuchs while he had been in America. Elizabeth Bentley, a former member of the American Communist Party, had in 1945 given FBI agents eighty names of people she believed were involved in espionage. At the time it had been impossible to acquire enough information to bring the suspects to court. These people were interviewed again and one of them, Harry Gold, confessed that he had acted as Fuchs's courier. He also named David Greenglass as being a member of the spy ring.

Greenglass was now interviewed and after confessing, claimed that Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were also members of the spy ring. In July 1950 Julius and his wife were arrested by the FBI and accused of spying for the Soviet Union. The couple were charged with conspiracy to commit espionage.

Virtually the only evidence against them was supplied by David Greenglass. He claimed that Julius had given atom bomb secrets that he in turn passed to Harry Gold, a convicted Soviet spy. The defense attorney, Emmanuel Bloch, argued that Greenglass was lying in order to gain revenge because he blamed Rosenberg for their failed business venture.

The jury believed the evidence of Greenglass and both Julius and his wife, Ethel Rosenberg, were found guilty and sentenced to death. A large number of people were shocked by the severity of the sentence as they had not been found guilty of treason. In fact, they had been tried under the terms of the Espionage Act that had been passed in 1917 to deal with the American anti-war movement.

Afterwards it became clear that the government did not believe the Rosenbergs would be executed. J. Edgar Hoover, head of the FBI, had warned that history would not be kind to a government responsible for orphaning the couple's two young sons on such poor evidence. Rumours began to circulate that the government would be willing to spare the couple's life if they confessed and gave evidence about other Communist Party spies.

The case created a great deal of controversy in Europe where it was argued that the Rosenbergs were victims of anti-semitism and McCarthyism. Nobel prize-winner, Jean-Paul Sartre, called the case "a legal lynching which smears with blood a whole nation".

Julius Rosenberg and Ethel Rosenberg remained on death row for twenty-six months. They both refused to confess and provide evidence against others and they were eventually executed on 19th June, 1953. As one political commentator pointed out, they died because they refused to confess and name others.

You are a Mafia Traitor along with Ethel Rosenberg[player](She is also a traitor), there is a Communist Group led by Joseph Stalin in this game that is trying to contact you, they know of your existence and can attempt to contact you in lieu of a nightkill, if contact is successfully established, you and Ethel will join the Mafia. Until then you do not have any nightkill capability and do NOT win with the town.

[Jedo the Jedi]

Here. In my own defense, I am Grace Patricia Kelly: townie. If you still want to lynch me now, then so be it.

[Mackay]

Uh, you know you have a whole one vote, right Jedo?

(FWIW, seems believable enough. The scary vote can sit there till I find someone better though.)

[Talitha]

Bump and vote: Jedo

He behaved quite oddly when inHim was getting lynched and claimed someone else's role. So there's more than one piece of evidence against him. And his claim cannot be confirmed.

[Talitha]

To clarify, it was inHim who claimed someone else's role. Not jedo.

Talitha, I know my claim cannot be confirmed, but by claiming, it is out of my hands if you lynch me. I have now done all I can to stop the town from potentially lynching an innocent townie. You, however, are becoming more and more suspicious.
