With over 130 people... votes alone are going to take up 7 pages! This one's going to so easily surpass the last games post count.

They should just give you powers to change titles . Of course you would only use it for your own game. .

You guys will be surprised how many of the less active members will come back for their roles. See they are normal townies, read my PM vote for me, and sorry for getting hopes up. I did not intend for that. And yes this takes much more work than just 1 topic in this thread. But that is to enhance point 1 in which I have way too much time to this.

If I was able to outwit everyone, or have a better answer than them I would make a potentially very dangerous candidate. Consider, everything I say is perfect, I can change the minds of a convinced crowd into another opinion, but even when I'm wrong I can convince them that they are wrong. A person with such good persuasion would probably become mayor.

That is what you recommend I do, but if I were that good, and (I'm not) if I was a mafia, then the town would be in huge trouble. I will never tell you what to do, but simply to provide what evidence I get (hopefully I can convince the town to send me roles and do what hotzhot did last game which helped the townies alot), and/or how I interpret it. Right now my main tactic is to get my name out there and hope that people who don't care too much about mayor will give it to the person who wants it most.

P.S. I wish chuiu would post when he's going to start handing out roles, I'm so anxious.

How can you define better answer though? Player2 still has his reasons for player 9 and player1 has not convinced anybody. He has merely said: "Hey you may be right and I will consider it, but I will stick to my original opinion." However, I agree with the way you have it set it. That is, people sharing opinions and ideas with respect given all around. (stop the hate?)

I also concede the fact that having a better answer would be a good thing. I was just pointing out that having a better answer all the time and able to change other people's opinion may not be the best mayoral candidate. Imagine somebody able to change other people's opinions very easily. He would be a very strong mayor IF he had perfect information, whereas a mafia with that ability has all the information he needs. This skill would help a mafia mayor more than a townie mayor.

With chuiu's post I go to sleep. Thanks for all the hard work chuiu, I found out how much effort it takes to send pms to hundreds of people. Not to mention the posts take a lot of effort.

As to the others thanks for the stimulating conversations along with helping me build up resistance to written abuse.

I'm back from sleeping/school. And I shall start my campaigning. This will be a lengthy post. First off reasons for voting me:

1. Again I do have far too much time over 10 hours a day to spend on this. (I likely will not spend all 10, but depending on how much I'm needed IE if in the first night we kill 12 mafia.)

2. Tracil a mafia vet has pointed out that double lynchings are good for the town. And they are, here is my belief of them: In a game this big the hardest thing is finding out who is mafia. Information is needed for lynching mafia correctly. More lynches will almost always give information for the town to try to decipher. More information leads to mafia lynches the next day.

3. As CDR pointed out my lynching/voting for last game was immaculate. He points out that he is hesitant because I did not vote the first few days (where town got it wrong), but that is incorrect I ABSTAINED from voting because I did not find sufficient evidence for those getting lynched. My good voting skills is a good base to judge me because I will likely lead the town to victory.

4 This is more of plea than a real reason, but I have built up a lot of enemies with my pms, and unless I get bodyguard protection I'm fearful that the mafia will target me, or vigilantes who are mad at me.

‭I shall now go on to point out what other leading candidates have had to say.

I'm running for mayor.
There's not much to say in regards to why I'm a better candidate than everyone else , but here's why I'm not a worse candidate than any you're thinking of voting.
The only guaranteed way to know I'm not mafia or anyone else is to have a detective check me up.

But at the moment that's not feasible, so all claims of not being mafia are moot until the election is done it seems.

I don't know any of you guys because I'm new. But that shouldn't be a disadvantage because people you know could just as easily be mafia.

My thoughts on how to throttle the mafia, for even if I'm not elected mayor:
- A detective should investigate me should I get the job. Once cleared that the mayor is not mafia, the detective should PM the mayor the role the mayor originally got as evidence he is detective, of course it doesn't make for strong proof, but should the mayor have an exotic role, then its pretty strong evidence that the detective is a detective if he got the role correct.

From there a team can be developed, people with roles should PM the mayor, and he sends detectives to investigate them to be sure. Only mafia would fake roles, so investigating them serves as hard proof of their legit role, or will reveal a mafia faking a role.
Sure this wastes the detective's valuable limit of 2, but its served a good purpose than a blind investigate once the mayor is investigated. Jacks should be recruited first.

Once this network is built, then the detective privately relays their findings to the mayor who announces findings while safe from mafia hit so medics are not needed and assuring the anonymity of the detective.

This is just a brief idea of some of the plans I have as mayor. I'm happy to answer any questions or queries. Feedback on my plan is also appreciated.

Candidate Ghar. Lets kill mafia.



Your plan involves building up trust where people send information to the mayor just like hotzhot did last game. That is good, that is also my plan as I stated earlier before roles were given.

Only your way of determining yourself as a townie is not as efficient as hotzhots' was. Either a detective has to waste his scan confirming you are indeed townie, or he has to publically declare himself as detective and say you are not a townie. Thereby getting the detective murdered and you lynched costing the town. This is no problem if you are townie (well a wasted DT skill) But there being no real way to determine townie on the first night so your point on detectives finding mayor is moot.

Here we go! Voting araav for mayor

1. I am the oldest here (from profiles)
2. will double lynch after several rounds only.
3. If I happen to be pardoner, and not mayor (get the second highest votes), will pardon the first day lynches, unless the case is really VERY logical
4. I hate how stupid Steve was last game
5. this


1. I do not see how being the oldest makes you any better at being mayor. Sure there is wisdom with age, but most people on TL have gone past adolescence and are rather intelligent. They do not need an older person telling them what to do.
2. I do not see how double lynching later into the game helps the town. If the town has reasons to suspect two people and asks for the double lynch will you not do it?
3. Again, if the town wanted him dead who are you to deny the down of their votes. Its like saying: "Hey I don't respect your opinion, this man lives"
4. Again, I do not see how this is relevant to being mayor.
5. That is a nice list, and perhaps I would have done it had I been awake when sonuvbob asked for it. However it leaves out pictures which was what chuiu based some of his clues off of (zdd grim reaper) Also, that list is already available on the first page.

My thoughts...

randombum: He showed his skills in the previous game (one of the vigilantes who did an amazing job), his voting pattern was good (according to a quote earlier in the thread, I haven't checked maybe I should) and I actually liked the mass PM, not because of the content but because of the effort involved in actually doing that. It shows he's dedicated, and that's something we need for the mayor.


there is no effort involved in mass PM's. to prove a point i PM'd everyone on the page where his pm was posted with my parody of randombum's PM in like 10 seconds flat.

if anyone is curious, my pm looked like this
+ Show Spoiler +
Hello.

Now i know what you're thinking. What's a flawed man such as myself doing PMing mankid's monument to pure unkempt overflowing testosterone, dashing good looks and large phalli, yourself (pictured below).

[image loading]


I want you to give me a chance as the mayor of Liquida.

A. I've been around TL.net longer than randombum, making me a more valuable member of the community than he is.
B. I will always double lynch if town asks (i'm told this is a good thing)
C. My post count is really big.
D. I took the time writing this PM because randombum made one, and I personally think I'm cooler. Oh yeah, and spam in thread or something like that.

Thanks, SoMuchBetter
i can go ahead an PM everyone in the entire game, twice if you want me to. it seriously doesn't take more than a minute to do so.



I don't know how you do it, but I had to do it rather slowly, clicking names-pm-type in subject-copy Paste. The process itself is rather easy, but multiply it by about 150 and a 5 second thing can take 12 minutes. I didn't even do it that fast because it took over 40 minutes maybe I'm just slow? Regardless it showed effort from me. Far more than it took for you to say: "hey look I so great I can do twice what he did in 1/20th the time! More importantly, you care less for being mayor than making fun of me. That is neither detrimental to the town, nor is it very polite.

I just woke up!

I'm running for mayor as well.

I have previous mafia experience, and have a good idea of how mafia like to conduct things.

Furthermore, I'll take everyone's opinion into consideration, as well as analyze everything myself.

The most important reason, and this is kind of risky saying it, but I am a detective. If I'm elected mayor, I'll be guaranteed to be safe from mafia attacks so I can publish my detective results daily, giving us a large boost. If you want, I can ask some easy questions confirming people's roles so they can back me up. The possibility of a Detective Mayor is something in the town's favor.

Also, if you don't vote for me now, mafia will target me first night and the town will be down a detective without me even asking anything :[


Empyrean is hurting the town more than he is helping by declaring he is a DT. Think about it. Either he actually is and the mafia now know who to stop (sabotage) or kill if he is not elected. HOWEVER, he also could be a lying mafia. The only way to prove that is if OTHER detectives come out wait! WE are the detectives thereby killing EMP but costing us all our DT's. You risked one of the town's greatest roles for a selfish reason. (getting elected when you cannot prove you are DT)

Lastly, ACE you have a lot of posts so I will not try to spoiler all of them merely debate your points. Your bodyguard plan is good actually. Very good. The only flaw would be inactive bodyguards, OR mafia killing a few bodyguards b4 they can confirm they recieved the PM. Thats no likely so it should work. Actually, there's nothing really wrong I find with you. I would be more than happy to be mayor/pardoner with you.
