In the case of the latter it must almost certainly be in the hands of the Mafia because there is absolutely zero reason for a Townie to make a move like that. Mayor/Pardoner isn't a hugely strong power in the hands of a Townie, IMO there are three main motivations for a move like that: 1) To deny Arctocod from the Bodyguard protection 2) To get Mafia elected into the roles where it is far more powerful 3) That Arctocod is Mafia and this gives him "confirmed Town" status I highly doubt number 3 is a realistic option since there were absolutely no suspicions against Arctocod and a move like that would be a complete waste when he was already well on his way to becoming Pardoner. I strongly believe number 1 is the real option because after Radfield/Arctocod I was the next one with any buzz for election. | ||

After Radfield and syllo/Palmar I believe that I am the strongest Townie player. Anyone who is elected into the position now will be under heavy scrutiny due to the circumstances that just transpired. That's fine, I have nothing to hide and I believe rendering me unkillable will be the most beneficial action for Town. Spaackle don't you dare leave now, what do you think of risk.nuke? | ||

Regardless of whether you think I am Town or not realize that as Town I am one of the more beneficial members. Anyone who is elected into office right now will be under an intense microscope and that's fine, if I'm Mafia then I'm under heavy scrutiny from the get-go which isn't a desirable position for a Mafia member. | ||

If it falls into Town's hands through RNG luck then you most likely have it on a player where it's worthless and that wasn't ever going to get shot anyways, if it falls into Mafia's hands through RNG luck then you're pretty fucked. Electing someone in these circumstances makes sure that they are HEAVILY watched which puts massive pressure on whoever is in office. If it's a Townie that's fine, they'll show their true colours soon enough and if it's a Mafia then that pressure is going to be insanely disadvantageous. | ||

If he is Town then you are giving minimal benefits whereas if he is Mafia then you are fucking the Town. High risk low reward. You have not said a word against me before but now all of a sudden you think I am Mafia because Radfield said so? If I am Town then you ensure I cannot get shot, if I am Mafia then I am putting myself under serious pressure by being in office. Yeah I haven't been that active over the past few days because I've been playing DotA 2 nonstop with Mig. Mig hasn't been online at all this past day so here I am. | ||

While it is very likely that scum are responsible for Arctocod pulling out of the race, it is very unlikely that they did this so that they could get the spot. People like ProfessorBadass are in no way more scummy just because this happened and ProfessorBadass is around. I still think whoever is elected into office still needs to be heavily watched. Pardoner is insanely strong in Mafia hands when it gets near the end of the game, we absolutely cannot allow a Mafia Pardoner to live even close to lylo. Give me the position and watch me heavily, as I've said like a broken record if I am Town then this is hugely beneficial and if I am scum then I am already starting at a disadvantage. The Pardoner powers aren't going to be used until endgame (Townies have no reason to, Mafia can't until it ensures a victory) so you'll have plenty of time to read me before then. risk your candidacy looks hella bad because you didn't even attempt to run in the first iteration of the election. Why weren't you worried then? Were you that sure of Radfield and Arctocod being Town? You said yourself before that you were against Arctocod for office, why didn't you run then to "keep it out of scum's hands?" | ||

Although he is putting himself under high pressure its high risk high reward. Pardoner can defend himself with words but no way for town to stop a pardoner with pardoning (although we can lynch the pardoner collectively there is no way to stop the action from being done). It is safe to assume Arc is probably silenced for the duration of night Your point of restricting voting to only the hydras I agree with totally Nisani wagon gaining momentum? I've gathered votes because people know my strength as Town. Why didn't you find it fishy that Radfield and Arctocod gained every single vote in the game with little to no discussion? Because people knew their strength as Town. I've told you why I was inactive at the start of the game. Do you honestly believe that if I intended to get the office for scum powers I would've half-assed it so hard at the start? That would be the best time to make a run for office as the elected officials aren't going to be under heavy pressure. I wanted Arctocod as Pardoner because if he is Town then he gains the huge benefits and if he is scum then I am confident in my ability to read Palmar. | ||

Debating on voting for ProfessorBadass but there is this post... and for now for lynch, for fun? ##Vote Nisani201 That was a joke throwaway post which everyone else in the game realized. There was a game where I did that on day one as my first post as well and under the bit of pressure it caused Palmar completely revealed himself as scum and got lynched day one. | ||
