An interesting strategy. You call me out on my magnificent speech and then proceed to say almost nothing yourself. Then you direct attention away from yourself and give the illusion of trying to help town by saying random things about the game. I don't think Cube was being serious when he posted that, but I however, was.
I am very adept at organization and strategic play. Although I may have not been in as many mafia games and tend to stay quiet, I can still manage a team and have done so in games I was mafia in. The same skills can apply to town if we are able to sort out who's who and create a legitimate town circle. Furthermore, I am very adept at sorting out what's what's legitimate and what's bullshit. Unless there are some specific roles which may overcome my keen eye, I can guarantee you that there will be NO leaks in the town circle if I am voted mayor.
As for the issue of whether I am mafia or not... you can be damn well sure that the first person to announce their candidacy for mayor as I did had better be really fucking good at defending themselves from clues if they're mafia. Other than that fact, I cannot guarantee anything. But that is what most elections are: a leap of faith.

Along with buma, keep in mind that this is not a typical mafia game. Read your PM role carefully to make sure there isn't something different about youre role and a typical mafia game role.

Pandain seemed pretty collected in the Haunted game, but many of his predictions were off. I'm not too sure about allowing him another chance to be wrong again, especially in a smaller game such as this.

im confused... so bodyguard(s) is a role? T_T
(a mafia should read this post and assume that im not a bodyguard and they wont kill me :3)
|
also: can a bodyguard be a mayor? and what if it happen?

I'm having trouble deciding between the candidates as well. I'm pretty afraid that the reds will campaign into a mayor position, but on the other hand electing a critical blue (such as DT or similar) would be a huge boon. Like BB, I'll vote for myself until I'm convinced a candidate is non-scummy.
I am convinced, though, that we need to elect an experienced player.

It's like a secondary role, such as the person voted mayor will still have there same role regardless. Bodyguards are a secret, but I think the mayor can see who they are. I'm also throwing a guess that because there is no public pardoner, someone has a secret role pertaining to lynch avoiding or something. 39 people is alot of roles to dish out, so Im eager to see what we are dealing with in the future.

Such as????? I nailed Heaven on earth, and I definitely wouldn't have allowed a town circle to form such that there were only like 4 vamps left(one count dracula.) Inflitration should have been especially cautious, yet was never brought up in that game.
I'm alright with electing someone else, but I feel I can really help.
As for your roles.... keep that to yourself. Obviously they are quite interesting(or maybe I'm special {yay for vaugness} ) but as of now try to keep it to yourself. If you feel you can nab a mafia with it, or establish a CONFIRMED town circle, then reveal. But be cautious.

in a game with bodyguards, bodyguards are selected after the election, not before
so mayor cannot be a bg

btw how do we have a town circle in a game with no pms lol

So after the mayor is selected, he immediately chooses the one to be lynched, then the first night begins?
What I mean is, has the first day begun, or are we still in the preliminary decision process?

The Mafia only has 2 conventional KP. I can say no more.

I'm curious how you would go about forming a town circle. Considering the PM rules. And there are no clues in this game, unless you mean something else like slip-ups. It seems for someone claiming they have such a keen-eye, you don't read the OP very well. I don't think this makes you scummy, you just don't stand out as an experienced player if we put aside how smart you will be as mayor.

I think this clarifies that mafia will have some wiggity whack roles to compensate some things. Which isn't a surprise. Be careful about what you think is certain in this game.

my guess is that the mafia has a role that can infect someone with murrayitis. if this is the case that role is our #1 target as town and is the role that mafia would probably want to have as mayor, since mayor is generally immune to rolechecks and special roles can not usually be godfather
|
Since we're all blue (well, the town is), won't it be difficult for the mafia to know who to focus down, esp since they don't even know what roles there are? I'm just questioning since even if you role claim, it doesn't really do anything bad for the town.
I'd actually argue the other way. If we all role claim, we are able to check what other people do during the night action and see if it fits into their role. Also, the mafia won't know what roles there are, so their going to have to make their roles up. The biggest flaw in this is that then, the mafia will know what roles there are and who they are, but if we are able to weed the mafia out fast enough, its an easy town victory.

if we all role claim
1. mafia can discern which roles are the stronest and focus those people down
also, like you said, since everyone is blue the mafia isn't bluesniping in this game. so their priority should be experienced players. so our medics if we have any should be protecting our most experienced players
also pay attention in the late game. any experienced player who is not dead is highly suspicious. in brownbears mafia game no one wondered why bloodcobbler and me survived to the end when it was obvious the mafia were just hitting experienced players. we can't let that happen
|
On murrayitis: One of my biggest concerns is that murrayitis is "highly contagious" (according to Artanis post). This suggests that if you are infected, any night action you do that involves going somewhere else will probably infect that other person.
