@Norm: If we lynch our mayor, do we have reelections?

The townies are given the option to either re-elect OR continue lynching process. It is determined by whoever the first townsperson to PM me the choice says...
Does that mean the mafias could just keep on PM you as soon as they can so that we keep getting a new mayor? (Or they considered townsperson?)

No, only a selection from an actual TOWNSPERSON will be counted, and it has to be after the day post is made declaring the mayor dead.

I was worried about the exact same thing yesterday.

http://www.staredit.net/?p=shoutbox&view=1095

When the Mayor dies, I will try to PM as quickly as possible to say we should lynch instead of reelect a new Mayor. I don't see the benefit in having a Mayor honestly, they can't check alignment, only guilt of murder (so you find a Mafia and he says he's the Boondock Saint, great). It also makes them extra durable with more lives, so if you elect a Townie you get no real benefit, but if you elect a Mafia then you've made it that much harder to win.

All that, plus you have to sacrifice a lynching to do it? Fuck no. There's no way to win if Townies aren't lynching Mafia, Boondock Saint can only do so much. I'm with Apos on this, I don't want a reelection once the Mayor's dead, not when we have to sacrifice our lynching.

Now if we could each individually choose to vote to lynch someone or vote to reelect the Mayor, that'd be a different story. I think that'd be cool, so one person gets lynched and one person becomes Mayor (possibly both at the same time lol). Which one you use your vote for would be your own choice though.

Also, I think Aristocrat is probably not Mafia.

http://www.staredit.net/?p=shoutbox&view=1097

At least, I'd think he's less likely than most after the host nonchalantly suggested he's Mafia.

I believe Norm has also made a similar reference to Raccoon in the shoutbox, though I was unable to find it.

Quote from Roy
Although I would maybe consider the misuse of the word "ironic" as a possible clue. From the context, there doesn't seem to be any direct irony.

[no clues]
It's actually the correct usage of the word.

When Norm first fought Miss Marberg 30 years ago, he was getting his ass kicked like you wouldn't believe. He realized that if the battle were to drag on for much longer, he'd end up dead. He developed a plan to set off an explosive trap that Miss Marberg had set in hopes that Norm would set it off himself while trying to leave the school. See, what actually happened is that Norm figured out that the door was rigged with explosives, so he didn't try to open it. Fortunately for him, the fight was taking place relatively close to that door. In order to survive, Norm acted like he was aiming paper footballs at Miss Marberg when in reality, he was aiming at the door behind her. He made a run for it and his projectiles caused the explosive trap to go off - catching his opponent in the blast and allowing him to survive the encounter.

Now, 30 years later, Norm is the one who ultimately wins the fight by punching Miss Marberg in the face so hard that her circuits go out. However, Miss Marberg has prepared another trap (self-destruct mechanism) that this time succeeds in taking Norm's life. Pretty ironic if you ask me...

Okay, fair enough. Like I said, that irony was not present in the previous context presented, but now I understand.

I order you to forgive yourself!

Everyone!!! Be careful!!! Don't make decisions too fast!!!

First of all, the mayor is good for the town. If we get a townie, it means that he is harder to kill for the mafias, that makes it easier for our doctor to make good choices. If he is a mafia, (That would be a bad thing) then he could possibly be able to find who the Boondock saint is.

I believe that it's still a good thing because it allows us to at least know who killed someone. We will have to make sure that the mayor gives his reports every single days. If someone says that the report was falsified, it means that we got a mafia. In order to say that a report was wrong, you can just give a proof. We will be able to figure out who the lier is after an other day. Of course, the mafia mayor could just keep on saying the truth, and if he does, wouldn't that help the town?

Someone wants to add something to this? Am I missing something?

Yeah, missing one thing... The Mayor may only use one night action per night. Whether it be Hide, Investigate, or something he carried over from his old role. So he could always just not get around to investigating if he has other shit to do.

That would make the mayor pointless unless he is a townie since most of the roles are more important than the mayor. Don't you think that's a little weird, a little psycho?

So they will just kill the other Townies until the Mafia outnumber the Townies and win.

If you're not lynching Mafia, you're losing. You can try to PM him to vote for a new Mayor, but I'll try to PM him first to make it so we do a lynching instead. It's whoever happens to be online when the new day starts I guess.

Hopefully we don't lose the current Mayor for a while because there's a good chance we won't get a second one. It's just not worth sacrificing a lynching to elect one, especially since the Mafia can easily bandwagon one of their own to get elected.

Night Two

A young boy was staying up late tonight playing Wii. Bad mistake. An older man was walking outside the boy's house, and the bright lights coming from the boy's window caught his attention. The older man casually broke in through the boy's window, but the boy was too involved with mashing the 'A' button as fast as he could to notice. The older man stood in the corner of the room - thoughts racing through his head. He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a knife.

Still unaware of his guest, the boy decided that it was time get some sleep. He turned off the Wii and spun around. The dark figure that he then saw in the corner of his room caused him to scream.

"Don't scream, kid" said the man.

The kid recognized the voice, but it was way too dark to see the man's face. "Who... who are you?"

The man grasped the knife tightly in his hand and stepped hesitantly toward the boy. "I'm just a man with a... Mission."

The kid stepped backward. "Yeah right, man. You're just a pussy for coming in here with a knife. Go pick on someone your own size!"

Tired of the kid's antics, the man took a quick stride forward, plunging the knife into the boy's heart. Aristocrat fell to the floor. His face was pale. In his last moments, he watched the old man walk back toward the window. The man lifted his leg out of the window, but looked back at his victim before he was all the way outside.

"Dumb kid, it doesn't matter who you're killing. It still takes... Courage."

***

Meanwhile, another man sat on the roof of the police station. He was looking through the scope of a rifle at his victim.

The man smiled to himself saying, "Well, there's nothing quite like killing for a cause. Good night, scum." And with that, he pulled the trigger. The lifeless body of TiKels was found only a few hours later with a bullet through his head.

***

A few blocks away, another man was just coming home from his afternoon shift at the laboratory. He parked his car in the driveway, and walked to the mailbox. The mailbox was empty except for one unmarked envelope. Curious as to what it was, the man opened it up and took out what seemed to be a letter. He tried to read it, but a combination of small writing and the darkness of night prevented him from making out any of it. "Meh, I'll just read it inside." He said to himself as he closed the mailbox.

That letter was found only a few feet away from his mailbox in a small puddle of blood the next morning. It read like this:

Dear lil-Inferno,

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to take your life.

Sincerely yours,
Anonymous


***

Having just woken up for a midnight snack, it was needless to say that the elderly man was a bit surprised to find himself behind held captive in his own kitchen. His visitor stood behind him with a blade held to his victim's neck.

"What's your opinion about situations like these?" asked the mysterious visitor.

The old man tried to wrestle his way out of the intruder's hold, but it was no use. "Let go of me, you wimpersnapper!"

The mystery man frowned. "I just want to know your opinion, is all..."

The old man continued to struggle, but eventually gave up. "Ugh," he gasped, "you youngins think you can do whatever the hell you want these days. Well, if you must know, murder is a sin!"

"A sin, eh? I had a feeling you would say something stupid like that." Disappointed by his victim's answer, the visitor slit his jugular and let him drop to the floor. He wiped the blood off his blade with a kitchen towel and made his way out of Artanis186's house like it was no big deal.



Day 2 begins now! All players gather in Town Hall to decide who is the mafia among them. A vote is held in order to determine who shall be lynched.

The chances of mayor getting a boondock saint instead of mafia are most likely to be 1/5, thats a good chance to take if we lynch that person. Mayor is the only one who can investigate, unless one of us steps up w/ the clues we won't get mafia. Sorry wing but your whole bandwagon + tikels defending you so much when you didnt even say a word = scummy IMO, but for all I know mafia are just too stupid to start a bandwagon on themselves and get elected mayor. Investigate me the first night if you think I'm mafia and we shall see the results ^^

Forget it, let Wing Zero live because as Azrael.Wrath stated, it will be pointless to re-elect one.
We can't lynch him unless we are sure he is scummy, not just: "Sorry wing but your whole bandwagon + tikels defending you so much when you didnt even say a word = scummy IMO"

For now, Wing Zero should not be considered a townie unless we get evident proof of the opposite.

Don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, don't lynch the mayor, got it?

Never shall innocent blood be shed, yet the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river.

Did Wing Zero say he had no role other than mayor? If so, it means he will have a report.

I vote *to lynch* Apos.




Aug 31 2010, 7:50 pm Aristocrat Post #258



Lol, dead on the first day because no one saved me :shifty:.

With that said I now have no motive to point out the hints Norm put in.

EDIT> We should just lynch Apos so he stops spamming the thread with posts that look like hints.
