Tass hasn't voted yet, and things are close....
He'll vote for HongHu, and she'll go for him (I hope), so that leaves her fate in the hands of ljcvetko and FlameFlash. That is, if both CT and HH get their votes in in time.

We've got about five hours left til the voting closes. Come on, HongHu is still leading, we need those votes against Tassadar!

No, they're at 4 all, because Jamski hasn't updated the list with Hercules' vote from just above.
(It's 9 posts above this one, and has a big quote in it )

Hey Tass, don't worry. It's not as though we're trying to rig the voting or anything.

If Tass logs-on too, her vote isn't going too matter much.

Tass's and HongHu's votes will cancel each other out. And with four and four, this'll be a very close one.

A good call from HongHu to not vote until later, by the way. Her vote will definitely count, everyone's will.

30 minutes left.

The fact that Tassadar hasn't posted even once after we started to suspect him is rather disconcerting. I sure hope it's some sort of a tactic, trying to pull a small theben maybe.

I think he forgot he is in this, or thinks we were gonna kill him in the first round anyway.

But if I were the Mafia, I certainly wouldn't just "forget" something like that. If he's the Mafia, either he has a force majeure class obstacle or he's simply trying to, as I said, pull a small scale theben. When you are the one doing the killing, you don't disappear in the middle of the game. Ça ne se faut pas!

Edit: Hell, he's only posted twice in the entire thread. I really don't like this.

Maybe he thinks no one will vote for him if he stays quiet.

IIRC, YOU were the killer last game, and I was offline b/c I couldn't get back online!

And in this case, if Comrade Mormon doesn't show, it'll be his own death.

I was just using the word "theben" to refer to a period of inactivity that may or may not vindicate someone... whether the person doing it is actually innocent or not, that's not the point. No Mafia to record has done it so I decided to call it a theben.

There's still a fighting chance. One gets desperate when the end is nigh, and can come up with the craziest of plans to get off the hook. Like asking a mod to edit posts.

Ok, time's up for Comrade Tassadar who is thrown into the docks by the mobsters.

But later on that night Ljcvetko was found with a triangular hole in his head, and a yellow circle of paper in his hand with this printed on it :

"Change ends : half time in the olemmup sports"

There are no names of actors or players or professions with two m's in them, so those are out. Instead of a biblical motif it appears we should concentrate on the soccer theme. Yellow pieces of paper, sports, half-times.

Problem is, there's already a definition "to be Thebened", or "to Theben" which is to "have your name misspelled" or "to misspell". You could leave it as a mafia-only definition, I suppose...

I don't know if any of the players are into a certain soccer team. Perhaps one of the actors played a role?

It's a Mafia term and I'm using it as a noun, whereas your examples are verbs. I don't see a conflict here.

Yes. Just two words isn't something to work with, however.
