3-2, if you overturn a lynch, that's a no-lynch

that makes it 2-2 after night
Not quite how my role works. Sure if you lynch one of the people on my list it'll be a no lynch, but otherwise it's still a lynch? I just have to be public about the list?

so it's more like a gladiator? before the lynch, you say "oh, I want to make sure they can only vote X, Y, or Z?"
Essentially, yeah. Though I don't think I've seen a gladiator before

WELL IM GEORGE PATAKI SO It's flavorful governor anyways?

Should I activate it now? I'm tempted to make it so that it's just Twin and Jiffy as the options.

The reason why I didn't activate it before is because it's stronger in lylo situations

a governor is

"If there's a lynch, the governor can overturn the lynch after the fact and force a no-lynch"

a gladiator is:
"A role which can force the town to choose between two options (usually the gladiator and another player, but sometimes two other players instead)"

It sounds like you're claiming gladiator but calling it governor

I mean, it would pretty much confirm you as town right?


that ability seems WAAAAAAAAAAAAY overpowered to give to scum in LYLO unless they had to nominate one of their own for lynch

SSK's claimed role makes no sense for scum. OP as fuck.

Vote: Majiffy

Gary Johnson has completed seventy-five triathalons. He has also climbed Mount Everest with a broken leg.

Day One - Vote Count 3.4RachMarie - (0/3) -
Majiffy - (3/3) - MafiaSSK, Twin Wings, Kuribo

MafiaSSK - (0/3) -
Twin Wings - (1/3) - RachMarie
Kuribo - (0/3) -
Not Voting: Majiffy


The Debate Stage"Thank you so much for joining us here at Yahoo! News! My name is Katie Couric, and we are finishing RachMarie's answer to women's rights.

"It's not the government's place to decide this. It's not up to old white men in suits to decide what goes on in any of our women's vaginas. Women's health care is a fundamental right! And I will not let any of you get in the way for them to get the help that they deserve when they need it!"

The crowd erupts in applause. "Thank you so much, Candidate RachMarie. Now Majiffy, your thoughts?"

Majiffy leans into the microphone. "I agree."

People begin muttering among themselves. Katie Couric cocks her head. "You... agree? Just who the hell do you think you are dictating our women and their health?"

"I'm not. I'm saying I want no part in it."

"Oh, you're saying you have no stake in the health of women's rights? Do you have a woman in your life who you love?"

"Of course I do, I'm just saying whatever RachMarie said, I agree!"

"So you agree with women being controlled. You make me sick! Get off my stage!"

With all the commotion and scandal, Majiffy was forced to end his campaign.

Spoiler: Majiffy was...

Welcome, Majiffy, to the 2016 Presidential Election Mafia! You are Harvard Law Professor and former candidate for the US Democratic Nomination!
You are a
Triggered Townie!

You are known for many things - mostly as a law professor at Harvard, but also as an advocate for many types of legal initiatives - like net neutrality, free culture... and even remix culture! Remix culture is a type of culture that allows derivatives of an already existing property! Your role is triggered because once someone dies, you will take an altered form of their role (that I will PM to you.)
You win when all opponents to the United States are out of the race.
[/area]

With such a political climate, all opponents faithful to the United States have removed themselves from the race.

Welcome, RachMarie, to 2016 Presidential Election Mafia! You are former First Lady, US Senator from New York and former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton!
You are a
Vanilla Townie

You've been in power nearly your entire life. You used to be a US Senator. You used to be the First Lady of the United States. You used to be the Secretary of State. You're no stranger to the White House. You deeply love your country, even though the Republicans try to tell everyone otherwise. You want change. You want women to have equal pay. You want college to be free. You want to continue what President Obama has started. People want you in prison. Don't let them. You are powerful. You are woman.

Welcome, MafiaSSK, to the 2016 Presidential Election Mafia! You are George Pataki, former New York Governor!
You are a
Town One-Shot Governor!

George Pataki is a resilient man! He was the governor during the 9/11 attacks and executed a great recovery. You've also supported bills that advocated for gay rights, health care accessibility and women's health. Pataki has been governor for well over a decade and it's fitting that he should be made a governor this game. During day phases, you should PM the mod (me) a list of people you'd like to protect. Up until the lynch, I will NOT lynch someone who is on that lynch. I will also NOT lynch you (unless you request otherwise, but I don't know why you'd do that.) This is a ONE SHOT, so you only get one break!


The NEW President of the United States is either... (Whichever of the two scum responds first.)

Welcome, Twin Wings, to the 2016 Presidential Election Mafia! You are Caesar St. Augustine Du Bonaparte, Emperor of the United States of Turtle Island.
You are a
Mafia One-Shot Strongman!

Your partner is Kuribo. Your private topic is (url.)
You are Caesar, the self-appointed Emperor of the United States of Turtle Island. You want to become the President of the USA and rename it to Turtle Island. You have your own Youtube challenge and are VERY angry at your government for stealing your car. And you may even want to kill someone for it. You are, however, resourceful and even more so, adamant. If you want to get someone in prison, you probably have a buddy who owes you a favor and you can convince them to put the spin!
You win when there is only the candidates loyal to the United States alive are equal in number to those loyal to Turtle Island.

Welcome, Kuribo, to the 2016 Presidential Election Mafia! I'm pretty sure you don't look like the guy here, but you are Pizza Hey He Stole That Guy's, and you are fighting for the creation of Turtle Island!
You are a

Your partner is Twin Wings. Your private topic is (url)
There's not really anything to learn about you, but you do have a name. And that name suggests that you steal pizzas. And in this great country of America, what greater crime is there than someone who steals pizzas. Each night, you can target someone and steal their pizza. Not the pizza of the stomach, but the pizza of the HEART. And without pizza, they will be unable to muster up the courage to perform their night action.
You win when there is only the candidates loyal to the United States alive are equal in number to those loyal to Turtle Island.
