Well your profile quote is somewhat suspicious... but not much more than anything else

All the suspects end up that way, fitting in one aspect and not in another.
Hobbes is the only one who can potentially fit the whole picture, even if it seems a bit far-fetched.

I think we shouldn't get too ahead of ourselves with these clues.
I agree!
These clues seem really hard. They'll probably be easier as the game continues
DoctorH you seem pretty active. Are you by chance going to run for office? You seem to be making the most sense so far.
Right now I think we should be discussing who is going to run for office and what plans they have. This Sherrif role seems kinda funky I don't really understand it. Would be great if someone could make some sense of that blasted contraption.
Also can clue checks find out the godfather? I'm really afraid of the godfather. How can we find them out without a rolecheck.

Have we found anything at all that fits with the murder scene/knife?

I guess I might as well run for mayor/sheriff.
If I'm elected mayor, I will most likely lynch ghote, unless someone turns out to be more suspicious.
As far as the position of sheriff is concerned, the power of incarceration is pretty important. The problem is the possibility of incarcerating a blue like a medic/detective/vig
I wouldn't incarcerate indiscriminately to avoid something like that as much as possible.

fuck wrong mafia thread! My apologies, won't happen again.
|
I'm kinda thrown off by the "No Clue Area". What does that mean? And what are is it referencing? Is it the actual space or is it referencing the space above it (which has *** following).
|
anything below that area has no clues so analyzing it would be fruitless
|
So everything above it can contain a clue? Hmmm....
|
We need to pay very close attention to whoever becomes Mayor (and to a lesser extent, Sheriff), as they can't be rolechecked. And the Mayor has triple vote power, which will become more and more powerful as the game goes on. Whoever becomes Mayor MUST explain all of their votes.

I wonder if the month/day a person registered comes into play?

#2:thin knife, ran forward and stabbed, "lifeblood seeping from his wound" dragged body into the closet, cleaned up pool of blood
have clues appeared outside of passages describing the mafia member kills in past games?

Yes. Everything below the *** does not contain clues. Anything above it contains potential clues.

Thin knife shouts "stiletto" to me, but that doesn't seem to associate with anyone.
To be honest I think mayor/sheriff should be people who are active, but also with the emptiest/most unambiguous profiles, so that if any clues are given linking that person to the mafia, hopefully they would be more obvious. It is most imperative that if either/both the major and/or sheriff are mafia, that they be lynched ASAP.
I can't think of any ideas for the clues you guys haven't mentioned. I don't want to burn out day 1 so I'm not going to think any more about it until we have more clues.

@Zona - Well, the only real clue that can be construed from outside of the killing scene is the fact that it says Two newcomers strode inside.
Perhaps indicating that the two mafia members are part of the new players to the game, so that could narrow down our search considerably in that area.

Oh cool I get it now 
Jugan is the name of a dragon btw lol.

That's a good point... However, aren't most of the players (if not all) of them newcomers?

Woah, this started fast.
I'll read the thread in the morning.

My Fellow Liquidians,
We face the threat of extermination. Within our ranks, there lurks members whose sole driving focus is to kill us all (and hopefully leave a few clues behind). Individually, all we are armed with is our wits. That will not be enough, for our enemy strikes unseen while we must cast our votes openly.
The answer is trust. We must learn to trust one another even as we fight an unseen enemy in our ranks, and that is impossible without someone to lead the way.
That is why, today, I am running to be your Sheriff. I will strive to discover and work with Blues in the best manner possible, so that we can all make it out of here alive. I've played in good mafia games, bad mafia games, and served time in the psychotic morass known as Caller's Red Army, so I know how to be a man and do the right thing.
Vote for survival. Vote t_co for your Mafia XVI Sheriff.
|
Uh, the mafia really want to find our "blues" to kill them - our special townies shouldn't give themselves away to a mayor/sheriff that might be mafia.
And to be honest, until the endgame, trying to out our special townies is very anti-town.
|
Also, since we can't edit - I don't think the incarceration power really is that strong. Just 2 uses when there's 34 players in the game?
The rules say the mafia can kill themselves, but I'm not sure if they can withhold some/all of their allotted kills. (If they can, the game becomes a lot harder for the town, in my view.) Anyways, if they can't withhold their kill, the incarceration power is best used on suspected mafia, when there's an odd number of them. That way, if the number of kills is reduced, then either the incarcerated person WAS a mafia, or we had a lucky (or smart?) medic. (If we had a lucky vigilante, that would be obvious in the message.)
The strength of the sheriff/mayor come from their immunities. Actually the way I look at it is that a mafia sheriff or mayor is a much bigger boost to the mafia than a town sheriff/mayor to the town, as a mafia sheriff/mayor is immune to detective role check, can easily explain why they haven't been nightkilled despite whatever they do in the thread. The mayor triple vote is a strong power that becomes even stronger in the endgame, though.

The best mafia game I played in was the one where Ace, as mayor, had organized most of the blues into a cohesive network that rivalled the mafia. Most of the games are very solitary and only end due to mafia incompetency.
This is not about "outing" blues; it's about making them aware of each other and having a sheriff they can trust. Ultimately if they can't trust the sheriff at hand until the endgame, as you state, then the mafia has scored a victory and this is what is truly anti-town.
