From what I know, refraining from participating in an election brings the same result as not participating in a lynch (modkill), so are you saying your role allows you to avoid the consequences of not voting? And if THAT'S the case, what is that saying about your alignment in this game? For all I know, you could be some sort of third party with a separate win condition. Please note that I'm not necessarily suspecting you of anything just yet; I'm simply curious as to what your post implies. I wanted to play a character, but it looks like i'd be modkilled. I thought about playing it to the death but i guess that's stupid. I'll vote. | ||

He's still told us more about his place in the game than any other candidate. We know more about fishball than Pandain and Annul. Because FB has made claims, we can hold him accountable to those claims if it falls through after he is elected. Right now we have nothing to hold the other candidates to for being accountable, other than just playing pro-town. | ||

Additionally, Artanis alluded to the possible existence of elements that can tamper with role check results - e.g. a framer or insane DT - meaning that a rolecheck on the mayor night 1 is possibly useless, as any rolecheck-tampering would almost certainly be directed the mayors' way. Finally, remember confirming a players role ability != confirming a players alignment. | ||

Does not include the details of the role pm, but critically does include alignment. If possible, I hope he can confirm this in thread. Ohshit. Very good, thanks for asking. I hadn't even considered that it would return alignment as well. DTs are a lot more powerful in this than I anticipated | ||

I'm voting for bumatlarge in order to tighten up the race, since its hard to deduce anything from landslide elections. Bum never had a bandwagon either, which is some consolation. At this point if Dr. H is elected, it's not a bad thing. If he's mafia, he's revealed so much about himself that it will be easy to catch a lie. If he's not mafia, then we don't have to worry about the possibility of a mafia mayor since rolechecks are awesome in this round. | ||

I'm not sure what's going on here... it's either a horrid mod screw-up (in which case I think we should be informed) or there's more than one role of that variety, perhaps one that has to vote town. No, that doesn't make sense because a town variety doesn't know who his fellow townies are. | ||

How it works, I have no idea. In Brownbear's death, it says he just dropped dead. Yes there could be some hints in the post, but this is the death that Node predicted. I am not forgetting the possibility that Node is Mafia and knows who will die each day, but it seems that Brownbear just died, not that he was killed by anyone. It's probably not exclusively from the mods because then theres no way to get rid of it. I imagine something like a mafia member whose ability is that a random townie dies each night, and Node foresees this. | ||

We have to consider things case by case, not handle them all the same. Lynch all Liars is a metagame policy that extends beyond just this round of mafia. I still have trouble coming to terms with it because last game I was in LAL got a couple townies lynched. Because they lied and fucked up the town, and mafia pushed LAL on them. Even so, as a long term policy LAL can and will discourage these lying plays on both sides, town and mafia and so it should be used. As for Aeres, I'm guessing if lynched he's going to flip town. There's less of a motive for claiming BG as a mafia, since the purpose of claiming BG is to draw a hit and the mafia won't hit itself. The other thing is mafia completely ignored 666's bodyguard softclaim, for whatever reason. | ||

Basically, I'm a "goto" target each night, and if I want to live, I need to self-protect myself a lot. Thus making my role almost useless. I don't see why you think anyone else (other than the mayor/bodyguards, maybe) would make a better target than a 100% confirmed by mods doctor. IMO, by role-claiming, I just leveled the playing field a bit. His point is that even though the mafia knowing you're a doctor is a negative, it's still strictly superior to being a straight vanilla townie in pretty much every possible scenario. Therefore, L says, there must be some kind of catch. On the other hand Artanis/LSB could have just screwed up and not realized that one choice was better than the other, but that's not something I'd readily assume. | ||

Did not mention anything about a sticky situation That doesn't make sense. So the only you thing you sent was "Be careful, he's red." ?? it doesn't make any sense out of context without the first sentence | ||
