I'd hope not. If this is being seen as a mafia power grab, clearly the opinion on my overall playstyle is much lower than I thought.
No. It's more about townies tearing each other apart while the mafia doesn't have to get involved. Stay back and let the townies make incorrect bandwagons. I've been in a lot of votes where I was sure the mafia must be adding to them to make sure I was taken out and when the game was over, I was surprised to find out it there was one or no mafia members actually voting for me. It was just townie confusion.
Let's play fast and loose for a moment. I know I'm a townie. I like Silenced's reasoning on his vote. I'll say he's a townie. If I'm right that it is just townies voting for Silenced then MASB, oohhboy and Stratos are ok. I'm throwing nickmitch a bone here despite his accusations against me that he's also on the townie side. That's 6 players.
That leaves the following 6 players on the possible opposite side:
Steefosaurus
ShyGuy
lolmonade
ThePerm
NWR_Insanolord
Lucario
Now, one of those players I may or may not know who they are. (Tricky Khushy. Not giving up all his secrets just yet.) So, if half of those players are mafia then we've got a 50/50 shot at getting out a mafia member. Thus, the course of action is clear:
Vote lolmonade
