Okay, so I didn't get to interrogate Mahaloth like I wanted, but that's my fault.
I respect the fact that he sat and stayed there for like an hour after I asked him to. Also there's just something strange about his tone there... you have to recognize I had just spent half the posts in this night phase tearing at three players in particular, and one of them was Mahaloth.
His reaction felt... like he hadn't read my posts or he didn't care that I was accusing him. But it feels weird for either alignment. I know Mahaloth doesn't typically get rustled or upset or reacts too strongly regardless.

Mahaloth:
The bolded stuff is really important to me.
In post 46, I asked....
1. Why am I a villager? First I'm not scummy for no reason, and tonight, I'm a villager for no reason. Elaborate on how you went from having no opinion on me to having one, to having a strong one. Which posts specifically.
It's important to me, not busywork, because I need to put myself in your shoes and see if it fits a progression I can identify.
Be as specific as you can with your reasons why.

What is it about lulz and his tone which feels off to you? Additional thought, it's not hard to fake, but I get a lot from his tone which is passionate, struggling, defiant, and there's a sincere desire there to make a lynch happen which he feels will result in the death of a mafioso.
Now, you can fake that. But look at the other side of the coin. You have several players here who I can name, and you can name, that have no passion, they aren't struggling, and they're the opposite of defiant. They're.... compliant. They're pushing the status quo, but not that hard. They aren't saying why people are villagers and why people are wolves beyond just the bare minimum perfunctory surface level.
That is what I feel wolves do. I feel that especially when I have seen the player in question have some passion about what they do as a villager, rattle some cages, take some controversial stands, and when it comes to me, actually stand up to me, argue with me, and call me scum up and down if they think there's the slightest thing off about me. And they'll go into great detail why I'm scum if they think so.
Because then it's a real thought that inhabits their head. It may or may not be correct but they BELIEVE in it.
Look only at Day One, Night One, Day Two. Tell me which people have said there's something wrong with me, and tell me which of them you actually believe feel that way.
Look at the folks who have commented about me but have zero position on me.
Which position feels real to you? Which opinions feel like they are absolutely real, coming from the mind of a person who wants to win the game for village?
I'm not even concerned about the accuracy of it. Anyone who has accused me or not thought I was a sterling villager has been completely wrong. But did they have any vehemence behind their opinion, any effort, any sincere belief that you could see?

What is wrong with Scathach, in your opinion? You've played with her before many times. What makes her a valid lynch this time?
4.
Where do you stand on Drink and why? What did they do, on which days, in which posts that makes you feel that way?
5.
Where do you stand on Meeko and why? What did they do, on which days, in which posts that makes you feel that way?
6.
Where do you stand on Dizzy and why? What did they do, on which days, in which posts that makes you feel that way?
You're a great big blank space to me this game.
Even if I die, I'm asking you to respond well to these questions. It will help the other players read you.
I wish I could have asked you that in real time, but this will have to do.
