It was a few rounds in before we figured out that the ones saying the most were probably innocent.
Perhaps the crazies know that, and have thus switched their strategy to fool everyone. They certainly know it now that I said it. But I still think it makes more sense to try to go along and be noticed as little as possible.
More than anything else, however, I am intrigued by the mechanics of this game. Not knowing the state of sanity of those we vote off puts the Sanes at a disadvantage. Thus, in order to even it out for the Sanes, the Crazies would also have to have some kind of disadvantage.
My question is, what is the Crazies' disadvantage?
Seems like the most likely possibility, considering Sir Dylflon's reluctance to clarify it, is that the Crazies don't know who the other Crazies are, as the Others did in the last game.
I also believe Sir Dylflon said something along those lines when he first wrote about this new game at the end of the last game.

The crazies disadvantage may also be numbers. Maybe there are a lot fewer of them this round.
Also, speaking as an Other from the previous game, I can confirm your assessment of our strategy. Honestly, the more active people stick in your mind, so you think to vote for them. It behooves the bad guys to remain as unnoticed as possible so that people look them over. That was my goal. The innocents on the other hand are trying to anyway possible to rationalize their movements to the others so as to not draw ire.
