If he extended to exactly a day past when he originally intended to do roles, it should be in about two hours.

From: randombum Subject: Mafia Date: 3/18/08 11:37 Hey, you barely know me, but you might have seen me around TL.net particularly the mafia game. This is just a PM to ask you to vote for me for mayor, because that would rock. I'm sure you have your own ideas, but if you are undecided and don't know whom to vote for, please consider me, randombum. Here are some reasons as to why I would be a good choice. 1: I spend far too much time at home, so I will always have time to check tl.net and do the double lynch if the town asks. 2: I will always double lynch if town asks (a good thing) 3: I will be taking an active role trying to figure out clues and this way I will be able to willingly post them without fear of mafia taking me out. 4: I took the time to write this pm to you hoping to convince you so you do not have to look though pages of spam in the actual thread.
Thanks, randombum
hmmmmm

HE GOT MY HOPES UP I THOUGHT I GOT THE ROLE PM !!!!!!!!!!! oh well, kudos to him for a unique campaign at the least
|
I'll vote for anyone who lynches randombum.
|
I got the same. I just figured he was sending them out to everyone. Seems like a lot more work than just making one post in this thread. :x
|
I thought that was the role PM as well.
Got my hopes up :/
|

aww i got all excited WAY TO GO RANDOMBUM =(
|
LOL
|
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.

My response to randombum:
Even with this message, I have no real reason to vote for you. As far as I can tell, this is just a gimmick to get more votes. None of your points are actually very useful.
Your first point: 1: I spend far too much time at home, so I will always have time to check tl.net and do the double lynch if the town asks. Okay, so you spend a lot of time one the computer, and you'll double lynch if we ask it. That's nice. First, you mention that you spend a lot of time at home, and we can only assume you mean the computer. Fair enough, but Mafia is not a game that requires a lot of timing, unless perhaps you are mafia organizing to fix an election. I know you aren't mafia though, because I haven't received my role PM yet, so I assume you haven't either. Also, you mention that you'll use double lynch if the town asks you to. Do you think you're the only one? You were in the last game, you saw how quickly we turned on FakeSteve. Even then, he had used double lynches whenever we asked him, and he still got lynched. I seriously doubt there'll be any mayor that won't use a doubly lynch if the town demands it. Governments should be afraid of their people.
Your next point: 2: I will always double lynch if town asks (a good thing) Okay, I've already covered that. You're hardly unique there, any mayor we elect will double lynch if the town asks.
3: I will be taking an active role trying to figure out clues and this way I will be able to willingly post them without fear of mafia taking me out. That's quite nice of you, but it's hardly unique to mayors. Many townies can, and do, analyze clues and post, regardless of the consequences. Furthermore, if as mayor you do your own analysis, you are likely to be biased in favor of your own conclusions. If you instead weigh all conclusions equally, you can use your extra votes more fairly.
4: I took the time to write this pm to you hoping to convince you so you do not have to look though pages of spam in the actual thread. I call BS. I have no reason to believe that this is an individual PM, hand-crafted for me alone. Your PM is perfect for mailing to a lot of people; it has no specific details, and the 'wisdom' contained is simple enough for anybody to understand. If you really want to show that you care, you have to acknowledge the individual recipient of the PM. For example, I was a paramedic in the last game, and yet you did not mention this to me at all. If you had, it would have been a more tangible human connection than the rest of this PM. By not saying this, I can judge one of two things; this is a stock PM, sent out to every single person on the TL mafia list, or that you did not pay any attention last game.
TLers are not, in general, stupid. Most of us, I would hope, can see through this kind of thing very easily. By sending this PM, you demean us (without meaning to, I'll admit that), and don't show any respect for the individual. A good politician can make his constituency think he cares about each of them individually. You have a long way to go yet. Still, props for trying, it's nice that you've made the effort. I might vote for you. Or, I might not, you'll know in a few days.

I think you spent more time writing that response than I did writing out my PM. Thanks for the effort and the consideration.

Also to randombum: You do get points for trying, I appreciate the effort. The PM needs work though. You could try such tried-and-true lines from the politicians like "I am not a crook", or "I did not have sexual relations with that woman"

This isn't politics (mayor part is). THIS IS
MAFIA!!!! + Show Spoiler +You expected sparta didn't you?
