Aww- So I see I have more fans. That's good because my dorm room is getting hot. We have no air conditioning in most of our dorms.

Anyway, it can be easily concluded that Josiah is the Mafia. Why? Well, he's the maker of these forums, he can do whatever he wants! (Appeal to Poverty) Also, he did have that whole Ink or not Ink thing going on. (Non-Sequitor)
But perhaps it is not him, but instead it is Sira. What? Yeah. If you've ever watched a murder mystery, you know that the butler did it. Actually, that never happened. But in suspecting the least suspected person, you would change the suspect ratio, therefore there would be a new least suspected person. Thus your logic holds no sway. (Reducio ad Absurdum or Strawman)
But to forget Innocence is to make a mistake. Where? Why, she's right there, lurking, waiting, watching. We can't trust her, or she'll stab us in the back again. It's happened before, it'll happen again. Well not this day! (Appeal to Probability or Gambler's)
What about Silver! When? I think it was yesterday. Well, there's no proof to the contrary! It must be him! (Negative Proof)
And there's Simsmagic! How? We think with a knife. It would be very difficult, with our technology, to determine that the knife did not belong to Sims. Therefore... (Burden of Proof)
No, no, no, it's actually Cheese. Who? You know, Mozerella. He's just mad that he's being beat out by Cheese-Its as the cheesiest. (Appeal to Motive (Yeah, it's a stretch))
And then there's Quick! Huh? I know he's new here, but you've met him before. His argument was using a Red Herring, and then after he did jump to a conclusion. Therefore, his hasty judgment would tell us he's trying to lie up a web to conceal his tracks. (Argument from Fallacy)
But what about Poik. Whatchamacallit? Okay, go away. He's quite the suspect, blaming everyone using Fallacies. He obviously is trying to distract people using long posts and strange logics away from something.

And with those said, I think it was... Sims! How could you blame innocent, can't you see she's guilty?
And with that said, I vote Kaida.
Hmm... This signature just got really short...

But... I have no idea... don't make me do it... um, ok, I'll flip a coin. Heads is Poik, Tails is Cheesey, and if it lands on its side I'll vote for Innocence. Sound fair? Good.

And... it's tails!
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Thank you Silver. I have an addition. Just so that you know, Silver is innocent. When I go, use that knowledge to fight the Mafia.

The results were in. My eyes flicked from suspect to suspect.

Josiah - Sims
Sira - Cheez
Kaida - Kaida
Silver - Cheez
Gar - knife'd
Poik - Sims
Simsmagic - Poik
Cheez - Poik
Quick! - Poik

Poik was deemed to be the mafia. Whether or not this method was trusty, I was unsure, but, hey, they'd used it here before, and it seems to work..... eventually.

Regardless, Poik was shoved into a room of his own with no view of the outside world and was forced to listen to The Song that Never Ends played on hi-def speakers. Needless to say, Poik spontaniously combusted after an hour or so. Well, everyone's safe now, right?

Then why can't I shake the feeling that the killer is still out there.....

((That would be because the killer is still out there, silly Saber! PM's, por favor.))

Re: Mafia

I was taking another evening stroll. My doctor told me the fresh, night air is good for your health. And, yeah, it did seem to be nice out. With a spring in my step, I strolled down the street. All of a sudden, though, my happy air vanished as a wave of discomfort settled over me. I quickly stopped and turned around to see--KAIDA! She was standing there, looking nervous. "I think someone's out to get me!" she whispered to me nervously. I assured her that everything was fine, though I myself was nervous.

"I think it'll be safer if we stick together." Kaida nodded her consent.

The joy of the evening lost, Kaida and I patrolled the neighborhood warily. CRASH!! "What was that?" I inquired. Curiosity overcame me, though, and I dashed to the right to find--SIRA! Her potted plant had smashed on the ground on her way home from the store. The loud noise seemed to have not only alerted me, however, for moments later Josiah and Sims bolted around the corner. I assured them that everything was all right, but for saftey's sake we all decided to travel together. Everyone here seemed quite uneasy.

Since I was far too busy keeping an eye out for anything suspicious, I failed to notice the ground. My foot caught on something large, and I tumbled to the ground in a messy heap. Quickly I looked to see the culprit for my triping. IT WAS CHEEZ, LYING MOTIONLESS ON THE GROUND--oh, wait, now he's yawning. Looks like he's fine, just fell asleep outside his favorite store since he acidentally left his backpack there.

I got back to my feet and brushed myself off, only to collide with Silver on my first step forward. I apologized, only to be hit from the side by a dashing Quick! (he really is quite fast, you know). Grumbling, I once again got to my feet, only to hear a horrific shriek! I turned around to see that SIRA HAD GONE UP IN FLAAAMES! As fast as they had appeared, the flames vanished, leaving a horrifically burnt Sira on the ground, next to a Mafia-brand "Insta-Combustion" Well, it certainly looked like walks at night weren't as good for people's health as I was led to beleive.

"Looks like we didn't find the murderer last time," I said, sighing deeply. "But, one of you will pay!"

Though I'll probably get accused since I'm posting first, I got to say that Kaida seems rather suspicious. She probably figured that meeting up with Saber and coming up with a vague excuse for them to hang out together would give her a good aliby.
