The more I think about it especially with this post, I believe there is a decent chance mafia is running multiple people. There is a big power struggle for mayor. I'm not really convinced any one the candidates are mafia, but maybe two of the major ones are mafia and are arguing with each other to further confuse us.
Marshal and Dr. H both being mafia? I don't know how plausible that is but it could really throw us for a loop and is something we should keep in mind. I know I don't have sound examples for this but all the major candidates seem to be good players and it could easily throw newer players like myself off. I just wanted to let everyone know I'm trying to think about this and this is what's on my mind. There are no town PM circles, and the mayor and pardoner learn the identities of the bodyguards, so if mafia gains one position, they can wipe out the other fairly quickly. Add on the voting capability of the mayor and the one-time lynchblock (which would have to be lategame only for mafia as we'd probably lynch the pardoner pretty quick afterwards) and it's pretty clear that the mafia would want to run at least one campaign for mayor. If I had to say which candidate I think is the most scummy, I'd call Kav. Maybe. It's more of a 'least-obviously-town' choice rather than a pro-mafia choice. GMarshal I think it's silly to lynch the pardoner - If we want rid of the role completely, try and vote a green in and get him to pardon one of the early lynches (perhaps the first one where we aren't sure of our lynch victim, probably the day 1 lynch). This gets rid of the pardon whilst still protecting a probable green. If mafia obtain one of the positions, and don't block the lynch, then we can lynch on the next turn in the knowledge that we're definitely lynching scum that time. Please do not consider lynching the pardoner purely to get rid of the pardon. There is no reason to.

Detective - Investigate the person you most suspect of being scum. Medics - Protect the a person you believe to be town who you think might get hit (active scumhunters/people who hinted they might be blue) Trackers - Track inactive players. If they do something, read their posts and try to determine if they are quiet blues or scum. Watchers - Watch someone you believe to be town who you think might get hit.
I think this is great advice. Blues should listen to this. Especially if you aren't hugely experienced at Mafia - I'm certainly not. What I would like to ask the more experienced TL Mafia members - In previous IRC games I've played, we had an IRC channel (I assume to all intents and purposes a pm circle is the same) that the mayor could invite people to and as a result the pooling of blue info was possible with only a small chance (mayor inviting a mafia) of the mafia finding out who the blues were. This is going to sound mafia as all hell, but what are the usual ways of blues sharing info without letting mafia know who the blues are? Is it solid analysis from town? Does one detective post his info like mad hoping a medic is around? If you don't want to share these tips, could you recommend a mafia game on TL that also did not have a town pm circle of any kind so I could read up on how this information can be shared?
As for lynching the pardoner, I said it depends on who gets elected, but I was only toying with the idea anyway, I think I may have overreacted to the threat that the pardoner presents, although it is a pretty large one.
As for information sharing I said in a previous post it depends on who the actual blue is, one method is for the dt to breadcrumb his results by claiming that he he feels "really good" about players who are town and "really bad" about players who are scum in an analysis, then when the DT dies the town can go back and look at who he had good and bad feelings about.
Claiming with role-blockers around is a poor idea, it should only be done if the blue has a red he cannot get lynched otherwise.

You backed off it quickly but I don't know how you could ever possibly think that removing half of the town's 'safe from night kill' roles would ever be a good idea. 2. Posting a list of what the blues should be doing? Extremely stupid, tells the mafia who they should avoid. Lists like that are only useful when we're dealing with a crowd half this size. If you were mafia that list would help you by getting all of the blues to focus their powers in one area, which you can easily avoid. Anyone you leave off the list is guarrenteed to be killable! 3. Calling vig hits on pandain? He's probably a blue that was stupid enough to announce himself in front of everybody, hes done nothing but lurk since then. Anybody in this thread with half a brain is aware of his role now, why could you possibly want to kill him? If you were mafia calling a vig hit on pandain would be the smartest thing you could do, since he would be saving you a hit at night.
I'm not saying you're town, but the conspiracy theorist part of my brain is going nuts with thoughts about how you and protract are mafia, and protract is getting bussed to get you into the mayors position.
TLDR; GMs ideas are horrible and I can't support his campaign. I withdraw my candidacy, my vote right now is more important than providing a valuable alternative.
I can't believe I'm typing this. ##vote DrH
Also everybody, about Serejai: I play SC2 with him sometimes and I am/was part of the TL minecraft server, and Serejai is the biggest troll I've ever seen. He was fucking with you. I don't know what hes doing this game but hes hard to read. As he posts more I'll be happy to translate into english for you. :D
Did you miss the part about the blue list being to provide a focus for discussion? If mafia sees the list and decide not to hit player because they are on the medic list then all the better for us, if we had 2 medics then I just made the mafia avoid 4 players, my updated list come nightfall will make it so that there are about 6 players in the medic protect list, if the mafia avoid them then all the better for us, also consider the fact that a medic seeing that list has no obligation to follow it,a s a matter of fact mafia not only has to ignore the "protected" targets but also has to worry about medics who might not be following my lead. Blue direction lists are all things considered a good thing.
As for pandian refer to my policy, LaL, now that he has made a claim and retracted it nothing pandian says can be trusted, what if two days from now he comes out and says, "lol, jk I am a DT and I checked Qatol and he is scum" would you believe a word of it? I know I wouldn't, hell it would probably cause enough chaos to force us to lynch him.
As I said with the pardoner, it was me being a little bit too rash, but the pardoner is *still* extremely anti town and I'm unhappy that its going to be in anyone's hands at all.

I have to go to class, i'll respond ot other points when i get back.
And then we waste a lynch the only town kp, I think its a stupid idea to pardon the first lynch, there's no reason to assume it *won't* hit scum, especially if its aimed by a town player who is gunning for an area with a high concentration of mafia (read: the lurkers) (and yes it *is* an assumption that some mafia will be lurking, but a fair one, no?)
Again every lynch gives us information, we shouldn't lynch exclusively for it, but we should not stop from lynching out of fear.

While kav has a million posts with zero content that are obviously trying to look protown and you can't even pull a percentage out of your ass for him?
Its the "Zero content and no clear intentions" that worries me about him, all the other people with 2-3 posts at least *tired* to look pro-town. These dont, and I see it as a player trying to disguise his alignment by not saying anything. 60% was frankly pulled out of my ass, I still see him as anti-town but I won't argue it since its not like I can write a PbP on him to prove anything.

I'm thinking our troll here might be a good lynch, other than him ON and Monster seem to have drawn enough attention as lurkers to make me suspect them, especially the Monster ninja vote.
It won't be someone who is going to be modkilled though, I'll leave them to die by the banhammer

Probably AO though, on my gut, as some player around here are so fond of saying I'd lynch OriginalName over Airblade. Day one reads are hard, so lynching the person who is less active is a good idea. My take, anyways.
There are still three hours left, so theres plenty of time for one of them to come in here with a groundbreaking and epic post that reverses my stance on one of them.
I'm leaning Airblade, but I'm still thinking it over, again 3 hours is plenty of time.
