Do you want me to link you my scum games?
Okay yeah, in my most recent scum game I can already see I said that I get townier the longer I live a fair bit. It's true though. You know I'm scum when I don't - as I didn't that game.

Hey.
I said
STOP.


And I mean stop.
Stop every single conversation you are in.

In your next post you must acknowledge and accept the rules I have laid out.
As soon as everyone has checked in and acknowledged the rules I have imposed on this game we will continue.
Yes, scumhunting and conversation are very important. But establishing this much more townsided voting system is
absolutely necessary
if we want to have an acceptable chance to win.

Note that I'm not really scumreading FD but I'm not comfortable calling anyone scum yet so for now this will do. I don't know how to read purr but I think nosf is an easy read so that's fine.

I made a format for official campaign posts:

Code: Select all

My alignment is []
My party is called []
I/We should be president because []
My/Our policies are []
Players I am likely to execute are []


Obviously you can spice it up a bit because that's fairly boring and uncreative but I think it's a good guideline for what should be contained in a post.

I don't see much advantage in trying as hard as we can to make this a normal game of mafia with inconvenient lynching mechanics. I also don't see how electing obvtown and letting them kill without mafia evidence is worse than letting mafia vote and influence our lynch. Obviously we still do discussion as normal, just with the absence of voting for a lynch.

I don't really like any of the parties so far enough to join them but I might end up joining one at some point. Most likely is probably Ruby's but obviously anything could change.
No matter what happens, I'll be right there with you.

I'm theoretically in favor of this, except for a couple things.
1. When deciding a candidate, we should vote in order of scummiest to least scummy. That way, scum are less likely to manipulate the vote.
2. It's just more fun for the game to be chaos. I joined the game for the campaigning and intrigue. If I wanted a regular mafia game, I would've joined a regular game.

This whole voting system is manipulative, and slanted in the favour of mafia. The strength of the town is coordination.

These are the(town imposed) rules we should play with:
1.We publicly decide on a candidate to be voted upon all by majority vote.
(remember we don't need to vote for someone who actually is in campaign mode)
2.No one diverts from the candidate appointed by majority vote. Doing so is a claim that your vote(in your district) came from scum.
3.No one votes twice. Voting twice is a claim that these excess votes came from scum.
4.After the candidate is selected, we all discuss who shall be lynched. We will again decide by majority - unless the candidate is confirmed town.
5.If the president mislynches someone who was not selected they are scum.
6.Scum due to 1-5 and 7-8 must be lynched first. Only exceptions are guilty results.
7.An unconfirmed President who declines to lynch scum is scum.
8.False roleclaims and fake results come only from scum.
I like this idea in concept but I have my doubts that it is practical. From my experience, calling town to band together like this doesn't work (this experience being my last large theme which was rocky horror picture show).

The main problem with this plan is that not many people like having restrictions placed upon them. They enjoy their freedom, they like being able to do what they want to do. This is an issue for this plan as so much as a single townie deviating from it ruins the whole thing. It's all well and good deciding by majority who to be president before the actual voting, but if anyone strongly believes the person we just voted as majority is scum then they're not going to want to follow through with it.

I think many people are overlooking one thing that this plan fixes though:
all mafia essentially have a double vote.
The mafia can punish the town for vote fraud but, as far as we know, we can't do anything to punish them. I'm sure we probably have a PR that does this job though but any scum with a hint of confidence are going to be heavily influencing every election.

I would also like to highlight how being voted as president doesn't mean you get to pick the lynch. In my opinion, the president's job is just to deliver the hammer verdict. Before this, discussion must be had to decide on who the town majoritively wants lynched. Once this is decided, the president should announce intent to lynch to give the target time to claim.

My alignment is [obvtown af]
My party is called [LYNCH SCUM DAY ONE]
I/We should be president because [i get scum lynched day one. it's what i do. to help me with that this game, i want people who i can read easily and whose reads i trust in my party. that's a lot of people in this game. if you have a read you want to talk to me about, i want you in my party's chat.]
My/Our policies are [lynching scum]
Players I am likely to execute are [scum]

Ruby is it possible you could explain any more as to why you want to be president (if there is any more to be said) and what you would do with the power?

Personally, I would never limit the people who have a say in the lynch to just those in my party. I don't see anything to suggest that those who join me would be more likely to be town than those who didn't. By keeping the lynch discussion open to everybody it takes into account more reads which means more association tells and, in my opinion, a likely more on target lynch.

I think we should elect obvtown and let them have authority over the lynch, taking non-binding advice from the other players.
