The issue I see with this practice clue is that we don't know what pool of profiles it was pulled from, thought the game we'll only have 30 or so profiles to take a look at, for this clue though we lack a limited subset of peoples profiles to analyze. The only limit right now is that it cant be the 31 players in this game, LSB or Node, that only leaves the rest of team liquid to look at. On the other hand I think clues are awesome.
Also people should start their mayoral campaign's, if I thought I stood any chance I would try for it, but I honestly lack the experience necessary to even consider it. Someone proposed before the game started that the Mayor have to pick his bodyguards from the opposing candidates to discourage scum running for the position, what do you people think of that?
gl hf town, lets win this time
I see either bodyguards be chosen from other candidates because
I am suggesting that bodyguards be selected among failed candidates. If mafia aren't sure if they can win the position, they won't want to risk being bodyguard.
Also, if mafia really want to have the mayor role, they must be certain that they could win. Therefore some of their fellow members must stand up and support their candidates. This is another risk mafia needs to take if we are using this plan.
OR among the lurkers because it will punish mafia who want to stay low.

Voting for Kav. If he turns out to be mafia, blame LSB.
I never played a game where mod suggested something to town only to MIND FUCK them.

Nothing was no mod mind fuck, at least to town, in insane.

Kav's "For now" policies:
Unless something serious comes up, I will follow town majority voting on what to do. I agree that the mayorship should be transparent. (For instance, if the majority thinks I should check Mafia total first night, then I'll do that. If they think I should check town, then I'll do that. I will reveal all information that the mafia would already know, (Like mafia counts), but I reserve judgment on giving out information on greens, and will likely not say anything about blue counts.
My opinion on the bodyguards:
If I were mayor, I would try to pick mafia as my body guards. This would protect me more than anything else, as my death (Before theirs) would be an obvious tell that they are scum. I will NOT pick players who are showing a high level of activity. If the are mafia, then they will likely slip up. If they are town, I'd hate to paint a target on them. This is subject to change, if someone can convince me.
I don't like "I would try to pick mafia as my body guards."
How would you pick these mafia. If you are mafia, then you would pick non mafia as bodyguard. Unless they are killed before substantial clues point at them, we don't know if you truly picked the correct people.
Personally I want you to address the most important question:
Would you choose lurkers OR other candidates as bodyguards?
|
More reasons why I think it's Qatol:
-Mod say this practice. It must be practice that involves looking at people's profiles and checking for clues.
-It is traditional in TL mafia to choose veteran players for the opening post. I checked all veteran players and only Qatol had anything in his profile that somehow relates to the given clues.
-I restrict my search within the mafia forum. So other potential people (kennigit, chill, day9, idra, combat-ex aka BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD, etc) were not checked.

Actually, I just thought of this:
What if we chose the bodyguards based on volunteers?
This could protect our blues from dying, as they only have to not volunteer. I'm also sure we won't get 24 people volunteering, as most people have some self-interest or sense of self-preservation. This would be most useful if we wanted two greens to be bodyguards. Anyone who volunteers will be put under instant scrutiny, so this would discourage mafia. Also, mafia would not put more than one member into the volunteer pool, or else there would be a high chance of picking two mafia bodyguards, which isn't really good for mafia, no matter mayoral alignment. The only problem is if we get a mafia mayor, he would have two townies protecting him. This set-up would rely heavily on DTs, as they would need to check and somehow release the information about the bodyguards right away, so that we knew they were town. This would force mafia to have to waste hits on the greens, or else make it look too much like the mayor is mafia. The problem arise though, when the mafia just leave the bodyguards, who are town, to try to get us to lynch our own mayor.
What do you guys think?
What exact is the point of this?
You want town mayor with 2 green protecting him. So should all green sign up for this or should some blues also volunteer. What is the number of volunteer you want to get?
Lets assume that mayor is town because mafia mayor will wreck this plan:
-If all green sign up as volunteer, then mafia will be like "LOL, lets shoot the other non volunteer."
-If some blue are mixed with the volunteer, then mafia can also choose to shoot non-volunteer because they are more likely to be blue. This will also risk blue being bodyguard.

Bodyguards would be revealed since its the mayor (who is a public figure) and unless the bodyguards are wearing masks, we'd be able to tell. This is all from a "take it from real life" perspective.
How can mayor not let other people know who accept or decline? No PM in this game.

What?
Mayor choose publicly choose two bodyguards.
Chosen two publicly accept or decline being bodyguards.
Mayor tells us if those two accept or decline bodyguards.

I do think that veteran acting as bodyguard is a very good tactic.
I'll go farther and say that we should have people volunteering to be bodyguards and mayor choose among them.
-If the number of volunteers is 4 or less, volunteers shouldn't claim and mayor will choose among them. Because this will play a small mind game that disorganized mafia's thought process.
-If the number of volunteers is 5 or more, veteran volunteers should claim and mayor prioritize these self-claim veteran as bodyguards. Because mayor is valuable to town, we need more protection for the mayor.
I played games where town mayor with special ability of additional vote get killed early. In this game, mayor's power is expanded which pose far more threat to mafia than other games do.

If anyone want to read past clues as reference... (XXVI)
On June 14 2010 11:54 flamewheel wrote:Clueset Connections:Bolded parts denote appropriate clues.Night 0 Killings:+ Show Spoiler +BloodyC0bbler had been busy late into the night, as per usual for a man of his stature. Gazing down at his desk, he was busy staring holes into recent police reports of increased crime activity. The town eliminated all crime years ago, so any reports of crimes of this scale, and in this frequency disturbed the mayor deeply. Taking a brief break, BloodyC0bbler took a walk from the town hall, wandering throughout the town. Crime he thought, so unlikely in his town. Making his way down to the city center, he gazed at the buildings as he passed, the shopping mall that had just been built, the school he went to when he was a kid, just farther down the way a series of small stores and restaurants. Making his way back the way he came, he stopped by the fountain in front of the office. It was there he noticed he was being followed. Turning, he saw a figure rush forward. The following morning, the town would discover the mayor BloodyC0bbler dead and floating in the town fountain. onihunter did this killing, and we used the fact that he was a swimmer and a student, ergo the fountain and school. Incognito the Pardoner, through his tremendous intuition, had sensed that something was to go down last night. Whilst in his office finishing his work, he deflected no less than five assassination attempts, ranging from sniffing poison in his coffee cup to leaping out of the way from a thrown knife while walking down the hallway. Dedicated and passionate to his job, Incognito would not let any threat deter him from furthering the prosperity of the town. By 11:00, he had finished everything, and after securing all the windows and other entrances into the building, he prepared to leave for the night. However, on his way out, he passed by the receptionist’s desk, and then something bad happened. Somebody had forgotten to turn off the printer, and it was on the point of overheating. Incognito recognized the danger and started backing away quickly, but in one freak moment, the printer exploded and showered Incognito with burning hot ink, hitting him in the face. As Incognito ran outward toward the street to escape, he was struck by a speeding car. MTF was right: the whole killing is based off of improbability. The fact that Incognito dodges five assassination attempts, only to be blinded by an overheating printer and run over by a speeding car speaks of improbability, and we used crate's Feynman quote for this. Had either of the DTs cluechecked the bolded parts, I would have returned with a positive answer. As jiabung's body swayed in the air, the town began to disperse. They had not killed a Mafia member on the first night, so the people dispersed quickly, knowing that death would be coming for them. Townspeople disappeared back to their homes, to wait out the night armed with shotguns behind hastily constructed barricades. However, after everybody else had left ElyAs stayed behind. He walked up to jiabung's body still hung, and began to inspect jiabung, perhaps looking for clues. However, after a few minutes he became aware of another presence, and nervously backed down from the steps, and started on his way home. A masked figure followed him, and stealthily kept to the shadows, not letting ElyAs out of his sight. ElyAs moved quickly, breaking into a quick run, hoping to make it back home before he was overtaken. However, he was not to make it. As ElyAs passed by the town courthouse, he noticed that he had already been beaten--the masked figure was sitting on the steps. ElyAs gasped, but in an instant his life had been snuffed out, and the killer walked away with a bloodied knife. This contained two clues: the persona of the spy and the sense of justice in the last line of the haiku in Hugoboss21's profile. Barth was spending the night safely indoors. He was at his desk in his library, looking at the pictures of the recently deceased town leaders through his magnifying glass. After carefully analyzing the pictures, he realized he was no step closer to solving this crime. He got up and moved to his bedroom, and began to get ready for bed. After climbing into the bed, he turned off his light and turned to see his drapes flutter in the wind. He moved to them and saw his window open, shaking his head and not remembering opening the window, he moved to close it. As he reached out to grab the handle, he felt a weight push against him, and he went tumbling out the window. A sickening crack was heard, and the lifeless eyes of barth gazed up at the sky. BC wrote this one--all I know was that it had something to do with the dudes in bumatlarge's profile. Snag him sometime to ask! It was pyr0ma5ta's night off from his job, and so he was headed back home. He walked slowly and deliberately, scanning the crowd for any signs of mafia. He knew that the mafia might target him for this, but it was his job. After the last townsperson had left the town square, pyr0ma5ta picked up the pace. However, he failed to notice that somebody was pursuing him as he made his way back home. pyr0ma5ta lived on the outskirts of town, and he had almost made it back home before he sensed somebody behind him. However, pyr0ma5ta was undeterred, and slowly turned around, reaching for the handgun that he kept hidden in his back pocket. Before he could withdraw the gun though, something flew through the air, blinding pyr0ma5ta as it hit him in the face. As he clawed at the suffocating object, it released an electrical shock that brought pyr0ma5ta to his knees. As he lay there, stunned, he heard footsteps approaching him. The last thing pyr0ma5ta would hear was the sound of his killer's heavy breathing. What can I say? Darth Vader. Heavy breathing and force lightning. I loved the image of people kneeling at Vader's feet  AcrossFiveJulys was on the prowl this night, he knew full well that in this city, it had become a survival of the fit. He was hoping that the mafia would slip up, and creeping up and down streets through the shadows, and checking every alley revealed nothing. Sighing, he moved into the local bar that he knew would still be open at this hour. Snagging a pint from the bar, and then sitting down in a booth, he sighed in frustration. After he finished his beer, he ordered another, then another. By the end of the night AcrossFiveJulys had no idea who stabbed him, but he was left dead all the same. First part deals with Lions. Second part with the number 3. The night was long for the pardoner yellowink and his companion laxercannon.
Together the men had the pictures of all the previous crimes laid out, and were scrutinizing them intensely. After hours of fruitless work, the two decided to adjourn for the night and pick up where they left off after.
They departed the town hall, and turned and walked separate ways.
Yellowink began to walk past the gallows when he heard a sound from behind him. Turning, he saw LaXercannon get attacked from behind. As yellowink began to move forward to help, he felt a sudden explosion of pain in his legs. Collapsing, he watched as a man stood over him, then dragged him up to the gallows. As the rope was placed around his neck, he watched as laxercannon bled out over the ground. The town then found Yellowink hanging from the gallows comes morning. Remember, Hugoboss21 commits his crimes in conventional places of justice--the courthouse, and now the gallows used to execute the accused. Once again, bumatlarge for LaXerCannon. I have no clue

"mi dio" = my god
mi = my
dio = god

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both willing, and able?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither willing, nor able?
Then why call him God.

The reason is mod don't write super random stuff like "my god" in Italian for no reason.
It is most likely to be a clue pointing at a killer.
