Do mayor/bodyguards get a PM circle?

Hmm... On the other hand this would give mafia incentive to be hunting for assassins as well...

question for the vets: in games with assassins are assassin targets typically reds or greens? ie, do most assassins act like classic red, with lurking and trying to avoid attention, or do they act like classic greens with analysis and debate?


In this game they don't care. They just want to kill black. This deal is a win win for both parties technically. He's not red,we get 2 KP and a role check.

The loss is that we don't have a leader/analyst in a 100% protected position.


Also once his two assassin buddies die off, he gets removed from the game-- and we lose our nice 3-vote mayor (or pardoner).

Eventually losing a pardoner in exchange for 2 hits and a rolecheck doesn't seem like a bad thing, if we could shoot him into a number 2 victory. There's a lot of mafia hits rolling around at night this game, it'd be nice to have some for town.

I offer you a counter deal, you put your kp/DT check at the service of the town and we will have medics protect you. Is as good as being the mayor, but it dosn't cost the town those roles.

Still kudos for your balls of steel in making that claim


The problem with this is that we DON'T know if there are medics or not. Hosts can pull a lawl give em all vets only thing again.

MEDIC:
You never really finished med school, but you do have a defibrillator and a first-aid kit! You may choose to visit one person every night. If you visit them and they are hit, you can use your defibrillator to revive them and your first-aid kit to patch them up. You can only block one hit, so stacked hits will still kill them. You may not protect yourself, as nobody has ever mastered the difficult art of defibrillating themselves once dead (hell, even James Bond had to get someone to do it for him).

This is a semi-open setup. Roles and their abilities will be disclosed, however role counts will not. Roles below may or may not be a part of this setup.

And if there are medics, I'd rather have them free to protect dynamically against predicted hits. I think having a black pardoner under green thumb is a powerful position no matter how you look at it. Unless anyone can find out why we shouldn't,

my thoughts regarding assassins

our goal in this game is to find and kill mafia. if we are to give a lot of attention to assassins, it should be to help them.

we should help assassins simply so that they do not accidentally kill townies. so if you suspect someone may be an assassin, by all means announce it and give your analysis. if that guides the assassins toward killing eachother instead of us, that's great. you could also analayse someone you believe to be mafia as assassin if you are confident you can goad an assassin into hitting them, that would work as well.

why not vote for protactinium? i seriously doubt he's bluffing, at least he can basically be trusted to be what he says he is. this keeps the role out of the hands of the mafia. if protact wins then the mayor goes away, which I'm fine with. that means the role can't be misused by a stupid townie or abused by a mafia. i'd rather just have no mayor and no pardoner anyway.

so i'm voting for him.

more than likely:
2 medics
2 dts
1 vig
2 vets
2 nosy neighbors

Oh man, Protact, you just made my day. That was brilliant, but not quite thought through enough.

The biggest problem, first and foremost, is that other assassins will be gunning for our body guards if you were Mayor/Pardoner. You may have two KP you are willing to lend us, but is it worth it if all the other assassins are going to be attacking townies because of it?

Another problem is that putting you in the position of Pardoner OR mayor would give you information about the bodyguards, something that would be quite valuable to the mafia. Since your win condition is not the same as our, I don't think that it would be wise for us to trust you with that information.

I loved the idea when I first read it, because I was thinking about how the assassins don't have a conflict of interest with the town, so it'd be great to get them working for us, but the problem becomes that we have to pick one of you to work with. That will set all the others against the town, and that counteracts the usefulness in a pretty big way.

Exactly this. Sorry, I'll be posting more tomorrow, the boyfriend and I are watching a movie.

I will be voting for GMarshal, for the record.

If the assassin is mafia, why does he need protection exactly? Is it just from vigs?

Its a risk I'm more than happy to run to keep or mayor or pardoner from insta dissaperaing possibly on day 2 if the mafia is incompetent.

And to all the people who are arguing that losing the pardoner is worth it I disagree, because frankly I dont trust having someone with a non town win-con in office, especially considering that the threat of the pardon basically stops last minute bandwagons from scum and makes last minute vote switches much scarier for the scumteam.

Personally I dont want to give up the pardoner not even for a dt check and a couple of kills.

Instead I offer again, I'll put you at the top of all the medic prot lists in exchange for your kills

The assassin's third party, they play a different game than Town vs Mafia that intersects perpendicularly in that some of their kills (or our kills) will affect one or the other. They don't have to support the mafia.

Just want to point out that Eiii is assuming that there are three assassins. Assassins, if he's assuming the correct number....Well. That'd be interesting, wouldn't it.

Okay. I misread then. Thank you, I appreciate it!
Does anyone have an estimate of how many assassins there are?
Protact is ballsy and I am reasonably certain we have at least one medic in the game. Chances are he'll be protected.

I think that Gmarshal should be mayor and protact should be pardoner if he is willing to help us.

I will put my vote up later when we determine how we want to vote.
Just to let you know that if you read really slow that you are in fact reading this beautifully written quote you will have totally wasted like 10 seconds of your life.
