Mafia TBT Mafia X: The Honnō-ji Incident [Game Over/Town Win]

[Cory]

Oath pretty much summed up what I was going to point out but I will add a little more to why I'm not very confident in out candidate choices. While it's nice to have a strong player on our side, it's also very dangerous if the strong player isn't town aligned.

Non-town aligned strong players running for mayor means a guaranteed protection at night until bodyguard is dead which could spell disaster for everyone else. It would be stupid for bodyguard to come out and say who they are so Mayor position is something mafia/third party would be striving for.

I'm not saying any of the candidates are mafia/third party but we should consider not a weak or strong person but a medium skilled player so that way in the event that they are not town aligned, they would be easier to point out than a strong player who is good at playing all sides nor would they be a weak player who may divulge all information/not think things through. Cory as a person is nice but as a mafia player, I cannot see or defend to be a strong player. Unfortunately, he is not exactly seasoned at this game and has had passed experiences with giving out information before official deaths, therefore not someone I would trust as mayor whether town or not. I also don't like the thought of people who "have it out" for others before the game even starts.

Should we instead nominate a few medium skilled players whether they want mayor position or not or choose from those who have put their name on the slip? This is a pretty hefty position to be put in so we need to choose carefully if we go that way.

I kind of do admit it was kind of a joke. I didn't think anyone would take it seriously... and I was kind of right. I think Trundle is the best and most qualified candidate at this point.

Ok. So here is my attempt at a post:

Superpenguin:
He doesn't really have a chance anymore. Good try though.

Trundle:
Pros: Good player, can t[ell when people are scum or Town, etc
Cons: If he were mafia and elected as Mayor, we are basically screwed.

Cory:
Pros: Bad scum player, isn't a huge threat to mafia. Willing to do whatever Town wants.
Cons: Bad Town player, and as Trundle said, he was very excited. Last game, he was also very excited. And what role was he? He was scum.

Purpl:
Pros: Ok player, not bad but not necessarily good. Roleclaimed Townie, and is willing to do whatever town wants. Also a nice person in general.
Cons: tends to slip up, but this game will only expose info that blues tell him he can expose. Also is kind of sad bc he didn't get the frickin alignment he wanted goddangit tina

Honestly, I think everyone just needs to vote for who they feel deserves to be mayor. I don't think bandwagoning is a good idea. However. I feel as though Trundle should not be made mayor, as if he is scum, we are all dead.

Purpl, I'm curious, is there anybody else you'd think would do good, that hasn't said anything?

The same goes for the other candidates by the way

But Trundle has admitted himself that he's easily found out if he's scum? I don't think we would be that screwed.

But in all seriousness, my name is still on the ballot if need be.

*well

I actually honestly think that maybe Karen or you should run. You guys have been pointing out pros and cons of each mayor, pushing forth evidence as to why mayors should or should not be elected. I would vote for either of you if I weren't running.

I do understand where you're coming from, but I'm sure you know it's pretty easy to tell when I'm scum or not, which is why I think it's actually a great idea for me to be elected. I've already made contact with a few blue roles who I'm going to working with regardless of me becoming mayor. The protection I get, I think, would benefit the town greatly.

I absolutely will not run. I am aware that there is a small contingent of players who do not want me playing and I feel like if I was mayor, I would fall too easily into the "GIVE ME YOUR ROLE" mindset which I have been slipping away from in recent games.

I was considering Karen myself, but I'm a little torn between her and Trundle.

 

[PurplPanda]

Also, another point on myself: I recognize my own flaws, and try to learn from them. With the extra night protection, I would be able to grow into a stronger player, and be able to lead town much better.

Again: Roles>Thoughts

This just makes it seem that Trundle has no desire of working with you unless he knwos your role.

Nobody's going to vote for you so I don't think it matters no offense.

 

[KermitTea]

I?d be willing to run for Mayor. Simply because I?m the only one that I know is clear, I don?t have any personal biases against anyone and I can assure you I won?t go around pestering people for roleclaims unless absolutely necessary, and if I do happen to get one I won?t share it (yes?I learned that lesson the hard way from HP mafia). I?d be willing to listen to any opinions and help the newbies out.
The only con to me running for mayor is that I feel like it?d be more worth it to protect a stronger player since I?m not a huge target, but the risk with a strong player as mayor is that if they?re scum then it?s a huge waste.

Why is that such a big deal? People trust him.

I am working with them and have been discussing mayoral candidates before I have even asked them what they're going to be doing with their role tonight. One has even asked me what they should use their ability on and I told them we need to get further into the day and have more evidence before we determine that.
I'm not really sure what your problem is, trying to make me look like that bad guy. It really shows your weakness because, instead of defending yourself, you have to resort to attacking others to try to exert yourself over the town. Shut the frig up unless you have anything actually useful to say.

I think you missed the part that he said regardless of the him becoming mayor he will be WORKING WITH them in order to help town. Who doesn't care about roles if helping coordinate them leads to a win?

 

[Superpenguin]

To me, roleclaims on Day One are just silly no matter how much trust you think you have in someone.

You know what. I don't care if you vote for me at this point anymore, because really I just don't like Trundle as mayor so I'd rather have anyone but him and I will be voting for the next-top-leading candidate whoever that may end up being (probably Karen). But can we please discuss this bland campaign post which brings no fresh ideas to the table?

I am often targetted during the nights.

This much is true and is basically why anyone is running or even should run.

I can direct blue roles through my posts and I can also be a medium of information for the town. For example, if you are a Detective or a Priest that would like to PM me so that I can reveal information without giving your role away in the thread, I would be more than willing to help. I will try my best to construct nightly plans and present a case each day.

Not anything new to the table. Anyone can do this mayor or not. And first you have to get these roles to work with you (which I guess some have already come and claimed to you).

I plan to continue my "obviously a town member" posts.

And this just set me off on the idea that Trundle is scum. The fact that he overly stresses himself as town.

Wrong, wrong, and wrong.
I always overly stress that I'm town. As I'm sure you're aware, I usually insta-claim townie in IRC when I get my role, which I did this time and also in the Mumble. Also, I had the first post in the game. There is no way I couldn't have been bringing anything new to the table. I made the table, figuratively. Pls think better

 

[KermitTea]

Trundle's always like that SP.

Anyways, we still have to hear from some other people in different time zones who may want to be mayor (eg Lauren maybe?) so I'll just give it time.

Wow Trundle. I honestly expected more from you. I was considering voting you as mayor but reading your posts....Not anymore.
Let me point out your wrongs here.
"I usually insta-claim townie"
What does that prove? So does Purpl. To be honest, you claming townie means nothing as you could very easily be lying if you claim it almost every game.
First post in the game, you didnt have to bring anything new, just give us a good reason to vote for you, which you admit you didnt do. That also means nothing.
I'm taking SP's side. Your posts are getting a little repetitive and meaningless, trying to scare others away from daring to argue and only valuing your partners for roles rather than thoughts is not something I want for a mayor.
