Day 1 Why do pictures never work for me
It is the year 2033. Many things have happened since North Korea’s attempted firing of a nuclear missile into the United States. Once that happened, things would never be the same. The UN invaded North Korea. The bombing was so fierce that North Korea literally ceased to exist, leaving only the South Korean island as a memory of the bloodshed of the final end to the Korean War.
After that, there was much disagreement in the media as to who ordered such a fierce bombing on North Korea. “Surely the people were not as bad as their leaders were?” some pondered. Fingers were pointed, blame was laid. The United States said they were bullied by Russia into doing it, Russia refused to take the blame, the UK blamed Canada, Canada blamed France, France blamed Spain, Spain blamed Poland. The storm of finger-pointing led tensions to grow even more throughout the years. The 2nd “powder keg” had been formed, and all it needed was another spark. Just as the spark to start World War I had been a gunshot, the spark to start World War III would be just the same.
On January 17th, 2033, the leader of the UN was giving a speech to some advocate groups when a shot rang out and he fell down, dead from a bullet wound straight between the eyes. Yet again, a storm of blame rained down on the world. But this time, it would lead to war. Russia, Canada, and Poland would join together to form an Alliance called The Consortium. America, France, the United Kingdom, and Spain came together to form the 2nd Alliance in hopes of repeating the victories of the First Alliance in WWII. Several other countries joined each side. World War III has begun.
Day 1 has begun!
As you hopefully figured out by now, this is not going to be completely normal mafia. Since the leader of the UN died, we need to elect a new one! No one ever left the UN because they still wanted to be considered a world power. The mayor will be given the power of an extra vote, as well as 2 other powers and one game condition they must follow, all to be explained after the election. Make sure you vote wisely!
Please vote in the voting thread using “##Mayor Vote: Player” to vote for a Mayor. Tiebreakers will be dealt with in the same way as normal voting is done (first one to reach the winning amount of votes will win the tiebreaker). You may change your mayor vote as many times as you wish.
Any normal votes must also be placed in the voting thread using “##Vote: Player”. You may abstain from voting for a mayor but you must vote for a lynch candidate.
Day 1 deadline is Tuesday, Jun 11 2:00am GMT (GMT+00:00). You have until then to choose both a lynch and a mayor.

Hmmmm :\.... This is different.
+ Show Spoiler [LOLCAT] + Axle: So Skip here we are again. Speaking of that ground hog day thing, didnt I die in the last town we were in? Skip: Woof. Woooooof woof. Axle: Oh its timey whimey thing and I should not worry about that.. ok.
Axle: So Skip here we are again. How does this one smell?
Skip: Woof. …...................... Wof wof. Axle: Hmm not too big, and not too many arcane power smells, sounds good. But Uh oh, we cant stay here. Skip: Woof?
Axle: Its normal town and were not normal we're different.
Skip: Woof!
Axle: What do you mean, Normal is different. Normal is same not different. And what do you mean you can prove it mathematically?
Skip: Woofity woof woof <plonk>
Axle: Ok so I looked up normal in the math text, you just happened to have and I looked up normal. Now what? Skip: Woooooooooooooooof Axle: Ok so on a Euclidean surface you can move around any where you like and its just the same as anywhere else. So whats different? Obviously off the surface is different to on the surface, and the further off you get the more different to the surface you are. Skip: [big]Woof![big] Axle: yeah Ok... I suppose a normal vector does get off the surface as fast as it is possible to do, so it (a normal) is in a sense as different to the surface as it is possible to be.
Axle: <thinks>
Axle: Ok so Normal may be Different, but what if we are a different kind of different one that is not normal. Oh, you have another text that covers that and I should read it for myself... Ok.
Axle: and you marked a page for me: “The curse of dimensionality.”
Axle: {reads to self} Ok so lets see if I got this right. In high dimensional space Rn, if all the relatively small population(us?the town is small n) are normally distributed on each quality (anger, agression, good play, …) then most people are an outlier in their own projection.
Axle:
Axle:
Axle: Wat?
Axle: No on second thoughts skip, I don't care any more and far as I am concerned it is all just the same difference, lets just go in and see who is around.
Oh apparently that(different) is normal
Ok. and Vanilla Town [brown]chocolate brownie[/brown]

@host OP says: The mayor will be given the power of an extra vote, as well as 2 other powers and one game condition they must follow, all to be explained after the election.
All will be explained... but to who? The mayor, or the thread, or is it another surprise.
@town countdown to sad face:

Not until I know your alignment and probably/possibly/maybe what the powers restrictions are or even know who will know what about them when. In the absence of all knowledge, I already chose the optimal course.
Even then there may be other candidates I'd prefer based on capability generating a better risk benefit tradeoff. If I had enough information I might even prefer a candidate other than me.
We are getting late enough in the day now that experience tells me, that other tzs likely wont be checking in. hence we lose a fraction of the day
do you have suggestion of what we can do profitably? AFAIK 1v1 mafia doesn't work that well.
aka speak words now.

not as much as a dota fan, and I really did not like the WCS system. I mean there is no need to call it world if it only has koreans anyway. But I am getting off-topic.
wanna make me mayor?

Why would you make a good mayor?

Cause I am a power hungry asshole that wants to have more than just one vote? I would say that this makes me prime candidate

Pretty sure you can tell from my track record that I really only roll non-VT when I force myself into a themed game
Also, we won't know what these powers/restrictions are until the election is over so there's no real point trying to work it out. In which case everyone ends up voting themselves as the 'optimal' route?
We have quite a few people in for discussion now, but what is there to discuss at the moment..
