The Voting system should be Extended Majority Lynch, meaning that the only majority that matters is the one at the deadline.

So I was going to write a bunch of stuff about the criteria for electing mayors, but most of it is invalidated by the lack of nightkill protection, so just pick your favourite townie, I guess. Most important thing today is not to get sidetracked from scumhunting.
@VE: Do you promise not to get into any dumb fights with Toad if elected?

VE is running? He is one of those players who often look a bit scummy even when town, could be tricky to get a read this early. Okay, one candidate, anyone else?

I only argue with Toad when I'm scum bro, I can safely and solomnly swear it.

I'm running for Mayor.
Why?
Because I'm never suspicious as scum, and always suspicious as town. I would never in a million years run for mayor if I was scum. You might say "Oh, he's trying to WIFOM; this is him actually being scum, running for this shiz". I would say that's slightly logical, but let's be reasonable; I could easily destroy all of you without needing to be mayor, if I was scum. Am I running off of a high from Liar Game Mafia, where I crushed a plethora of legendary scumhunters? You bet it.
Another point to notice; the mayor and pardoner do not get bodyguards. Usually, the purpose of the mayoral election is not so much to control the lynch, but to protect your strongest scum hunters. Since there are no bodyguards, putting someone like [insert vet here] into that spot is just asking for them to be shot up, if they aren't scum that is. What I will do as mayor is be open and forthright, not do a lone wolf lynch. If it turns out that I look way too fcking townie, then I'll get shot by scum, and that's NBD; I'll have done enough by being denying scum the initial lynch, and taking a bullet for better townies.
Last thing; I never ignore the newbies. You'll see a bunch of people run for mayor who will be like "I'm bad as scum, good as town, so I'll lynch right and this will all be good kk", but only I will actually consider cases put forth by newbies and actually judge if they have merit. While I might not be the best at hard scumhunting, compared to other players in this game, I pride myself at being able to separate "bad townies" from "newbie scum". Some examples of that are FourFace in TL Mafia LI and gumshoe in Surprisingly Normal VII. Tons of people were calling for vig shots, lynches, etc. and I just said STFU, they are townies. Let's focus.
In summary, since the mayoral election does not confer protection, it is more optimal to elect someone who is open, aggressive, and tranaparent, but not necessarily the strongest town player. Therefore, I think I should be mayor. I'll do a standard scumhunt (build a case) to determine the initial lynch.

I'll be voting ET presuming I cannot vote for myself. He and I are about on even keel as far as perceived clout go, and I'd say we're about on even keel as far as finding scum goes too.

You were the first person I expected to run for mayor.. what do you mean it's the last thing they'd expect? "Your results are questionable"? How does this inspire any faith? And you are always active as scum or town, and you're right; it's questionable whether or not your thread clogging inspires discussion or stifles it.
I'll support you as my running mate/vote if you promise to
1. not roleclaim in a scummy as fck manner 2. not RQ. No WBG, so it should be K. 3. not baseless-ly accuse people when I know you're great at building cases.
Can you vote for yourself in Mayoral Election?

What I mean is they won't expect me to WIN bro...obviously they expect me to run

And I'm not trying to inspire faith - it's as you said, we're not voting for protection here, we're voting for the best possible person to nab scum D1...and that's me.

A note: I will be slightly less active in this game then I have been in other town games I've played. This doesn't mean lurking at the standard I set in JubJub or Liar, but I won't be nearly as active as I was in MTG Mafia. I feel that it did not work the greatest in that game (game not finished, will not discuss further). Sure, this is probably a notch against me to be mayor, but I thought I would just put it out there.
If you prefer an active mayor, vote for VE. I hear he's easy to read.

Ok, that worries me a bit. I like your normal town style a lot, and so far I've had correct reads on you in all the games I've read. How exactly do you intend to change your style?

More people run, then maybe I'll have more options to consider. Why not yourself grush? Planning on one liner-ing your way to LYLO? Voting for myself.

I'm just not going to spam/tunnel as much as I usually do. You were there in Surprisingly Normal VII when we lost; I did not enjoy that.

Having free lynch day1 pretty good, but the scum would probably prefer Vice for protection in case a scum is going to get lynched.

You're smart to consider the scenarios, which bodes well for this game.
Consider that the pardoner will have some amount of town-cred, to be elected in the first place. To save their scummy lynch mate, they would have to out themselves. Not a very good play, unless the person they are saving is a stronger PR role than themself. I actually kind of wonder how Pardoner is a good role at all, to be perfectly honest.
The more dangerous role is the +1 vote that the mayor has. If a scum gets voted as mayor, they could potentially live til LYLO, which would be instant GG. It is extremely vital that a townie gets voted to mayor, and slightly less so important who is pardoner.
