Are endgamed players dead

[Blackberry]

I think the answer is it's mod discretion:

A mod can determine they're killed off by the Mafia going out in the open.

A mod can determine they are 'alive' but losers. I see nothing wrong with this, because a players alive or dead status has no impact at the conclusion of the game. I personally prefer the assumption they're alive, especially when the mod then goes on to create a sequel and reuses the 'alive' 'town players' to go on to play another mafia-game in a series! But that's just my personal preference, I don't think there's a wrong answer.
