Hey guys, make me mayor cause I'm bad. The fact of wether or not I'm scum will become extremely apparent within a few days going by the quality of my activity. On the other hand exceptional players like Marv or rayn can successfully abuse their power as king without getting caught and become fiercely run on threats. I am of the opinion that the most important attribute of the king be that he is town, wether or not he is good is an added bonus, and I'm certain all the skillful scum players will go to great lengths today to seem "townier" than they would normally. Besides, I shall be a fair king, on day 1 I will listen to everything everyone has to say and then lynch the most likely scum target. Going on I promise to be extra active given the importance of my double vote. So yeah, vote the king you can keep in check.

I don't really think ... [shortened for size constraints]


If your typical thought about me is "blazinghand is unlikely to post enough and will probably lurk" then that's fine, totally reasonable to think.


You seem plenty active now, but I'm afraid of the possible consequences if you became Mayor. Frankly, I think I'd do a better job. I've never played in a Mayor/PM game though so I'm leaning towards someone more experienced.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. I'm a classic low content player / lurker.


You're quite a salesman....

At this rate maybe I should actually run for Mayor...


I've you vote for me I promise not to lurk ( :

So should we wait until we clear out all the lurkers (alignment non-indicative behavior) and people you don't like to actually try to draw out scum, would you pass on a scum lynch to remove a player you have a "hard" time reading, as though the rest of the town should frame their opinions around your perspective? And what is the policy exactly, does this fall under LAL or anything like that - or is this just your personal preference. Your personal preference is meaningless to me and should mean absolutely nothing to anybody.

We can deal with suspicious lurkers by threatening hammer. If I'm mayor, I will lynch my top scumread at the end of Day 1, no matter who it is. I do not care if it is Marv or BC, the most suspicious person at the end of Day 1 will be lynched. I will threaten hammer on anyone who is under significant suspicion in the thread and fails to respond to it. I will threaten immediate hammer until they adequately respond to all accusations, I will threaten hammer to lurkers who try to avoid the discussion. By properly utilizing votes and the pressure of a hammer, we can force people to play at the pace the town wants them to play at. That's all. I won't try to be a hero and hammer someone without announcing or first putting on adequate pressure and giving people a chance to defend themselves but I would not be afraid to use it if I suspect the mafia are making a serious effort to derail a lynch on bad logic.

Have you considered that your aggressive approach will stimy conversation day 1 ? I mean it might be ok for getting one guy to talk, but several other townies may quiver in the shadows at the thought of a scum mayor Dh jumping on something they say. Also on the one hand you say you'll threaten hammer on anyone, on the other you say you'll lynch the scummiest read... Assuming the second is your aim, do you expect people to still take your hammer puffing seriusly?

Sadly I don't think you'd be a good choice even if you were confirmed town and wouldn't probably be going full AFK at some point :/

Why not, I would allow town convo to flow, stimulating it trough questions not threats and then I'd kill the scummiest player, and would you really wanna invite a scum mayor just to get someone whose " good " at the job? Also can't tell if your joking here or if you actually have this low opinion of me that'd you'd rather hand the throne to scum if given the choice ) ; real cold xata. Or maybe you just scum.

And it's not about threats - the threat is meant to foster an atmosphere where questions are answered, you can't deflect and avoid when I can kill you instantly. It's that simple. I don't think that mafia want to be in that kind of scenario at all, a scum mayor would reveal himself immediately playing like this too because he would be forced to apply this policy to all players and if he starts picking and choosing which passive/unresponsive players get threatened that's a pretty bad look. A scum mayor doesn't want to play this aggressively because there's no way of him avoiding threatening a hammer on his own team mates. Which FORCES his teammates to get in further drawn out discussions/arguments regarding their own alignment. Not a good situation for mafia to be in imo.

Jesus christ you dont fuck around with your answers 0_0

Yeah I could see myself voting for you.

Wait what? Why?


I'm assuming its so that the king doesn't make them body guards/targets.

Regardless let's not talk about what the blues should and shouldn't don't do in thread. Ala if you really want to know what rayns talking about just pm him...

Well here's a shocker ladies and gents: I've rolled town.

##Vote: WoS/Gigglytummy

So....you're voting me for mayor?

Correct

I haven't announced my intent to campaign. Is there a reason I have your vote and you apparently trust me over DrH and all of the other people who are actually trying for mayor?

Yes

because you rolled town.

being confirmed town, why wouldnt i vote for you?

Even were I confirmed town, how do you know I will use the mayoral powers effectively?


I would know that your not actively using them ineffectively.

I'm fine with Marv as mayor, also I'm fine with xata dying regardless of my alignment because once he's out of the game I can stop lurking!

Gumshoe, do you think as town you would say this in voice?

What does voice have to do with forum? My Forum meta allows for this sort of douchbaggery, thats all thats relevant.
