Well, that's interesting. I've never actually played a 3-handed mafia before this one, and if I were to go by gut as to who would be more likely between the two of you to be scum, I'd pick him right now. Mainly because his "I'm your ally if you're not the mole" statement just sounds like used-car salesman to me. But all I got is gut on that one. What's the difference between us that makes him ping you more than I do?

Wow I'm not sure how to handle this one of you two is the mole, that means one of you have a interest in me being killed protecting yourself. I think that person is.....

This is the difficulty of 3 hand mafia; you don't have any established patterns to work off; no real slips, just people chatting until someone votes then it all comes crashing to some sort of conclusion.
That said, the only information I have is my own alignment and how both of you are acting. Hoopy, you've been close in ideas to me. Ryjae, you do sound more like you're trying to wheedle your way around rather than discussing. That settles my vote.
vote Ryjae

Well shit you're either the mole trying to get me dead for you to win or you really think I'm the mole which means Hoopy is going to win. OMGUS vote perhaps but it's you or Hoopy so I have to vote for you.
vote Koldanar

I do like the snuggle you threw out to Hoopy to boot, to ensure he votes for me as well, so after more thinking about it I'm more convinced toward my vote of you being correct you are the mole!

So it comes down to me, eh? Well, you know what? I'm not the mole. So I'll put it to both of you this way. I won't vote yet.
If I were the mole, I would, because I would win. However, since I'm not, I won't. This should make me confirmed town, you guys need to convince me why I should vote for the other.

Oh, and whoever is my fellow townie, thanks for not voting for me, because you would have handed the game to scum.

Hrm, well lets see. What do you find suspicious (or not) about me? Or about Ryjae? I'm not sure making us convince you is the best method; to you we are both inherently untrustworthy.

Well, you and I are probably closer on the same page as thinking goes, but at the same time, you might just be trying to be snuggly and act town. Ryjae seems a bit slicker, but not enough so that I feel confident in voting for him. Since it's pretty much established that I'm town, I'm going to need my fellow townie to help implicate the scum. Everyone has perfect knowledge now except for me.

Everyone has perfect knowledge now except for me. The only thing I knew voting for Koldanar was his vote for me based on well I guess you call it "slick" that's just me, sorry about that. But when I seen that vote and really looked at what he had to say, it screams scum to me. Look at it, he straight up says how hard it is etc but then says he will vote for me and huggles for you. When I reread it even now it sure seems like he was hoping for a quick Hoopy vote on me, why would he want that? I'd like to win but that's the best argument I can make so hopefully you make the correct choice.

The video conference screen crackles to life. Looking over you see your boss's face. He's looking a little tense.
"Guys... the news of the leak has started to spread. It's imperative that you find a solution quickly before certain top brass get wind of this and propose Hoof and Mouth measures."
The screen goes dark. You look at each other. Hoof and Mouth? What the heck?
"Oh yeah," remembers Ryjae. "If one animal on a farm catches Hoof and Mouth they control it by shooting all the farm's livestock."
You have 24 hours from the timestamp of this post to reach a decision.

Well, what the heck:
vote Koldanar[/color]
After looking back at everything, I'm thinking he's more apt to be the mole.
So let's see if I chose wisely.

Current vote count : Koldanar : 2 Ryjae : 1 Game will end at 6:06pm BST today. You may change votes up to that time, but not afterwards. Bangladesh Standard Time? Now I got to look up what the the Hell offset that is. Can't you use GMT? At least I know what my offset is from that one. +6 eh? Well I guess that means the game is over since CDT is -5. And I'm posting this at 9 AM CDT.

Oh, I get it, apparently it also means British Summer Time. (i.e. GMT + 1) That makes considerably more sense. I figured it out after I looked at the time stamp on your 24 hour's remaining post.

Koldanar expresses overt suspicion first, accusing Ryjae of being the Mole. Ryjae mounts a counter-accusation, and soon the argument devolves into a one-or-the-other choice for poor Hoopy.
Hoopy eventually charges Koldanar with being the Mole. It's not long before security guards burst into the room, seize Koldanar and drag him out. Word comes down not long afterwards that he had confessed and been fired. Hoopy and Ryjae return to their posts; fortunately the task was more than half done, and they are able to tidy up the loose ends.
Koldanar was allowed to resign, but retained no clear memory of his post-arrest interrogation or his confession afterwards.
The End.
... at least until the computer allocated to Hoopy Frood is found with top-secret information hidden in files on the machine's hard disk, a serious breach of security rules, and Hoopy is summarily dismissed. The following weekend, your boss fell under a bus. The resultant vacancy was filled by Ryjae.
Ryjae, the Mole, has won.

It was a hot and dusty day on the streets of Dry Gulch City. The cattle were safely corralled, and three old trailhands had settled into the Old Seven-Shot Saloon to play a game of poker they renewed every year.
The whiskey was pouring freely, and everyone was in high spirits, until Saskatoon Slim laid down his hand, three kings over a pair of aces. Rickshaw Pete screwed his eyes at his hand for a moment before setting down a pair of aces and another pair of queens. Slow Texas Willy clapped his hands in glee, setting down four aces and the deuce of clubs and reaching for the pot, when Slim and Pete's revolvers leapt into their hands, pointing back and forth between one another and Willy. The piano music dutifully stopped, and a bar wench dropped a bottle of rotgut.
"I've seen games with five aces before. A man died. A game with eight aces? Might have to kill the both of you." Rickshaw Pete drawled.
"Sounds like the words of a guy that came in too short, Petey." Slim retorted. "Looks like I won, you lost, and Willy over here's playing with the funny cards. That money's mine, and neither of you are takin' it from me."
Slow Willy had taken the time the other cowboys spent talking to pull his old 12-gauge from out of his boot-holster*. "Seems to me both of you are cheating, and you still couldn't beat me. That money's mine."
At this point, the bartender hollared across the bar "Look at this!"
Lying on the bartop was a single pack of cards, which had been rifled through. It didn't take much guessing to figure out where the extra cards had come from. And a single source for the aces meant a single man had done it... and had been doling them out, one at a time, all night. Someone was so crooked, he could swallow nails and spit out corkscrews. And that man would have to die.
Vote in blue, unvote in red. First cowpoke to two votes gets aerated.
NAF1138 is Saskatoon Slim, so thin he could take a bath in a shotgun barrel.
Czech is Rickshaw Pete, ugly enough that he could back a buzzard off a gut-wagon.
Ryjae is Slow Texas Willy, so lazy that molasses wouldn't run down his legs.
PMs being sent now.
* (it was a short shotgun, and Willy wore long boots)

"Way I figure, you the idiot with the best hand from all these aces here," Pete says, staring down his pistol at Willy. "You are too slow to get away with it, 'cause ain't no way Slim could stack a deck worse'n you and still not win."
Pete purses his lips and gives Slim a nod. "I'm willin' to concede defeat on this here hand, Slim, 'cause aces to aces, I lost. But something tells me only a retard like Willy would try stackin' a deck so badly. You shoulda been content with losing, boy."

"Come on, Willy. We all know y'ain't the sharpest tool in the shed. Not tryin' to disrespect or nuthin'. Just statin' the facts. And the facts says you were cheatin' on Willy and me.
"You know what we do to cheaters. You remember Cockeyed Cal last year, don'tcha?"

So, Pete wants to vote for Willy, but places an illegal vote to do so?
Sounds like a cheat to me.
