So you signed up for a *heavily* themed game where it was 100% obvious electing party leaders was a core component, yet you don't care about this and wish it was vanilla?
Why are you here?

Faking townreads as mafias is incredibly easy. Faking mafiareads as mafia is something that takes effort. If we're only going to talk about who we're going to send d1 we're giving mafia an incredibly easy time skating by. I know it feels counterintuitive as clearly the shortterm "goal" is to send a good guy d1 but I think we should try and balance those issues out. After all, the goal in the longrun is to figure people out and we won't be able to do that by playing nice all day long. His posts look really hard to fake for scum and because of his reputation as being imba, I am voting Toadesstern ##Vote: Toadsstern
You clearly don't know toad at all. You don't even know toad's reputation.
1. Toad is notoriously hard to read. He posts giant walls of text that ramble on as either alignment and gets into hissyfits with whoever he feels like (most notoriously bugs and VE) as either alignment. 2. If he is imba, he is imba as scum, not so much as town. Personal opinion here, but I haven't seen toad make the difference as town. Unlike some other players in this game.
Now on to the beef of your post: why exactly do you feel his posts are hard to fake as scum? What specific quality makes you lean town on him? So far I am seeing you park your vote in a similar manner to Keirathi, for a similar reason.

The theme is fine but I think it's a mistake to play into it too much. Do people honestly think we lose if we don't pick town as our leaders? I don't. Kush's Plan Everyone Should Follow First night it doesn't matter who we pick since we don't know the nature of the event. Nights after, we pick the scummiest or towniest depending on what the first event is like. In between we do normal scumhunting and ignore the theme.

I am sheeping marv. I believe that whether marv is town or scum, the way he plays scum from what I've read is he tries to lie as little as possible. I think consolidating at the moment is important so people can stop focusing on townreads and focus on scumreads, and I don't have time to read 3-4 games of every player that is being nominated if I still want to contribute today.

Ok. Let it be known Acro is voting for sandroba basically because I'm voting for syllo.
A somewhat petulant way to play the game (even if you brush it aside jokingly)

Now I have to get his filter again, thanks Acro.. Yes I dont know Toad, he was basically given a slot in the game so I assume that he is some what proficient in the game of mafia.
1. I dont think that a scum would start his OPENING post with a scumread. 2. I think that its hard to fake as scum because, it is likely that his scum team will have some newbies and what he said in his few paragraphs are how to see scum which I see as only being beneficial as town. 3. I am leaning town on him AT THE MOMENT because again, posts like this help to inform town not to let things like this happen.

I don't think we are taking a leap here thinking the more town the better.

I am voting for Sandroba, because I have no clear read on either of them yet. If anything, I think they are both town. I liked Syllo's response and I like Sandroba's opinion of it.
I feel Sandro is playing very similar to SSM mafia where he "sponsored" GMarshal in a very similar way. In that game he was town.
Given that I have a very similar read on both, I prefer Sandro to finally win an election, simply to see what he actually does when he wins.
In short: no real reason for Sandro over Syllo. Prefer either over any of the other current candidates.

I'm going to spoil to you what he does, regardless of alignment. He picks 3 players, day post happens and then it's day 2 and we likely have a new decision to make. What else?

Not reading the thread already? I was under the impression (and still expect it to be a very real possibility), that a successful mission will give the party members benefits (items, mason chat, a level up, whatever) that will help us root out mafia and/or directly aid us in fighting Lavos. The best players in the game are naturally the best equipped to use such perks. That is, if they're town. Sandro brought up a good counterargument, and making scum choose between shooting likely party members and shooting experienced town players is a good policy. On that note, @Sandro: you have not explained why this policy is pretty much the complete opposite of your proposal in Holy Roman, where you (a veteran and likely target for scum kp) wanted yourself as emperor (and thus a likely target for scum kp) precisely because you are an experienced player. On a similar note, if we follow that logic through, Sandro should not be party leader.
At the time, I was leaning Djoref, because I was feeling town on him, and sending a somewhat experienced town seemed better than veteran Sandro with 3 noobies. However, he says he cannot commit the time, leaving us with Sandro and Syllo.
Iamperfection and Dino are unfortunately not serious candidates for me. Perfection is way too focused on people seeing him as town and not nearly focused enough on playing the game. Dino is fluffy.
Talking about fluffy, where is BioSC?

No you haven't answered the question. I know where you stand on the mission leader. You've said you endorse both sandroba and syllogism and voted sandroba. But for the rest of the party? Do you still think veterans should be selected by sandroba to go on the mission? Or should I take your vote on sandroba (who've hinted he intend to send less known players) that you no longer support that idea. And if so my question was why.
