If someone is elected on Day 1 to be Wheatly, could he get elected in subsuquent days, if there were more elections on next days?

If Drazerk was SA, he didn't know VE was SA as well, so he didn't know he could make this ploy. Maybe he would have hit a townie, and his whole plan would go down the drain.
I assume there is also a 'standard' scum family out there, due to VE flipping black instead of red. Having just 4 sleeper agents in a 31 person game seems pretty ridiculous to me... but we'll see.

there's no way we can rule out that this is the other way round and he is a freaking unlucky cell and is now pissed that their shared shadowbender flavour is revealed.
I can picture a combination like "has been killed by shadow and fire", "shadow + x" or whatever, you get the idea.
I am not saying, it is that way, but the coindidence is quite great in the matching flavour.
You run the risk of bumping off one of your teammates for the gain of what? killing a townie and bringing the rest of the town down on you. Its always a possibility, but its not a shot I would take. Regardless, speculating about Drazerks alignment over this one action is not going to result in much. Lets let his actions in the coming day or two tell the tale.

How are we going to decide who gets elected?

How do you know there's just 4 and not 9 cell agents? Random assumption? Whatever these alignment speculations don't get us anywhere...
I am just pointing out the flavour so it is noticed. Again, kill can be compulsive or he looks for an item. We don't know shit. But you're right, it's way too early to claim an alignment here. Still, this deserves an entry in every spreadsheet.

The person who is most towniest should be elected I think.

Considering VE was a Sleeper Cell Agent, for all effects and purposes that kill was a town kill. As in, when he was killed it was not possible to know that he was non-town at that point in time.
I don't get why drazerk claimed in fact.
Also who is running for election?

The point is that Drazerk being Sleeper Agent, and planning shooting VE as a "ploy" doesn't make sense.
He could still be from another scum faction, but in that case I don't think he would know VE was a sleeper agent (unless scum have a Day-DT as well, and got lucky).
Okay, there have been only 6-7 people actively posting in this thread, and only 9-10 posted at all. The remaining 21-22 players need to post.

Uh, thanks for pointing that out.
@Mav: Normally some people will make a campaign post pointing out there style and so on which leads to an election.

Kill wasn't compulsive It is usable at any time with some major limitations It's name is Shadows and Flames I need items and that is all I am telling you about my role
I did it for three main reasons -
A) take out someone who I thought would be too dangerous if they was scum / third party ( there was a few on this list but it came down to past experiences )
B) Prevents stupid fluff posts at the start of the game and causes discussion which in turn allows us to scum hunt efficiently
C) I really wanted to use the ability before they got to do anything

I think you have missed my point. Regardless, its not worth dwelling on.

I also want to point out the possibility of wheatley betraying us later on.
For anyone who hasn't played portal 2: He gets the successor of Glados and basically gets insane and stuff.
He will be a cute robot now, but I gotta feeling he won't stay that way.

I presumed the same which means who ever has it will be taking a huge risk in having the item but at the same time we don't want scum to have it meaning we need to give it to someone who won't be that important but who we believe to be town.

Agreed. But whatever initial power he comes with is better in our hands than in that of a non-town.
We can just keep an eye on whoever we elect and if they start doing stupid shit, we get rid of them.. or possibly transfer their consciousness into a potato.

That is possible, but I still think it's in our best interests to keep the "special ability" out of the hands of the scum. If it turns out to be anti-town, we can presumably just choose not to use it, and having the information will also help.
I am willing to stand for election. As all I get is access to the "special ability," and not a day 1 lynch, my campaign pledge will be to be completely transparent about the "special ability", if elected. I would be willing to fully disclose its details to the town, and then we could decide from there whether and how to use it.
If, as Jayjay suggests, I am later forced to become a maniacal killer, then we'll just have to deal with that eventuality when it comes :D.

C) I really wanted to use the ability before they got to do anything Are you claiming Neutral Balrog Survivor? :p I'm not sure how much discussion it really has created, more so than confusion. At least you hit scum, though, and his role had valuable info in it. If you had hit town, you would have thrown all of day 1 down the toilet. I'm not sure if I buy that reason, and I'm going to keep my eye on you.
On an unrelated note, this game makes my brain hurt. What did Celtic Guardian do in the show again? I forget, I just remember Yugi used him all the time.

Adding to the discussion Should the person that gets elected should claim the power or not? I think that he should claim the powers if its anti-town but im open to other opinions :D.

Ok, read up to this point
Firstly, whatever the intentions were, that was still helpful to us with the info we got. At least we have something to work towards now that we know how many are in the sleeper cell. Right now I'm leaning on Drazerk being trigger-happy.
As for Wheatley, there are a few things I wanted to comment on:
- I agree with jayjay about the possibility of a betrayal later on. But at the same time, the post seems to indicate that while he has no control over Day 1 lynch, he might well do later on. - He has no bodyguards, so whoever gets the position will probably need some level of protection if they don't have it as their role. But I don't think he'll be a target till Day 2

They should claim the power instantly.
Only issue is who ever gets it has a lot of time to prepare a fake ability so really it serves no purpose but to bend them to our knees and force them to do what we tell them to do as a collective town
