[BA-10] Election Mafia - Town Wins

Featured Replies

I'm going to go ahead and role claim because I think it guarantees town the victory if I do so at this point.

 

I am the Popular Candidate.

 

To remind you of my role:

Popular Candidate

  • You are the popular candidate and a US citizen
  • Abilities:
  • If the Electorate determines that you lost your election (aka you are lynched), the people will demand a recount and you will win your election.  The Electorate will be arrested (killed) for corruption.  Once you publicly win your election, you cannot become the Electorate.
  • If targeted by the deep state at night with their disinformation campaign (for the kill), you will not lose the election, but instead will uncover them and they will be arrested (killed)
  • This is a one shot ability as you are only running for office once this year
  • You win when all threats to democracy are eliminated

 

So I am essentially 1-shot Deathproof.

 

Here is why I'm role claiming now and what the plan should be moving forward:

 

Why role claim now?:

There should only be one mafia left which means that it is currently 5 town vs 1 mafia (and therefore not a LYLO situation at this time in case I am counter claimed).

 

What will happen moving forward from here?:

The last scum now has to decide whether to counter claim my role claim today or remain quiet and then the town will know that I am in fact the Popular Candidate. If I am counter claimed by the last member of the deep state then the town has a 50/50 choice to make about which one of us is telling the truth.

 

If you believe me (which you should because I am the PC) then we will lynch the last scum today and win. If you believe the person who counter claims me then you can try to lynch me today but since I am the Elector and I know that I am the Popular Candidate I will obviously not lynch myself and will instead lynch whoever counter claims me since I will know for sure that they our last scum and then town wins today.

 

Since I am role claiming now I will NOT BE ELIGIBLE to be the Elector moving forward. This means that our Electoral College will have to pick a new Elector for the rest of the game.

  • If you are TOWN and chosen as the Elector in future days, you now know that I am the Popular Candidate so as long as you don't lynch me town will win.
  • If you are SCUM and chosen as the Elector in future days, feel free to try to lynch me since it means that you will die instead and the town will win.

 

Endgame:

If we get all the way down to a point where it is just me and the last scum left, the town will win no matter what as long as no townie Elector chooses to try to kill me during a given day. Since I will not be able to be the elector anymore because I role claimed that means that the scum will be the elector on the last day if it's just me and him left. Their only two options at that point are:

 

1) Choose to lynch me. The SCUM will die instead and the TOWN wins due to my 1-shot deathproof status and the fact that it rebounds on them.

2) Don't do anything. This will result in the SCUM being modkilled for not submitting a kill and the TOWN wins.

 

 

BOTTOM LINE:

I am the Popular Candidate. As long as no future town Elector chooses to lynch me during the day, the TOWN is guaranteed a win.

 

 

 

Since Wolfpacks is currently leading the vote, hopefully he is our final scum and we can just end this today.

Wolfpacks is winning currently with 2 votes and deadline is in 5 mins.

 

Wolfpacks has lost their election.

 

 

Also, if the current electoral college wants to verify that I’m the PC, he could try to name me as elector again for tomorrow and it should get rejected by Brewers somehow I’d imagine since I can’t be elector after role claiming. His second choice should become elector instead in that case.

BREAKING NEWS:  WOLFPACKS, THE FORMER BRITISH EX PAT RUNNING FOR SENATE, HAS BEEN DEFEATED IN HIS ELECTION.  DEMOCRATS ARE BLAMING RUSSIAN INVOLVEMENT IN HIS LOSS

 

Wolfpacks, a US Citizen lost his election D5

 

It is now Night 5.  All actions must be submitted by 9am CN time 12/5/2020

[OOC] Brewers has asked me to update the game for him.[/OOC]

 

Lord MK, the Electoral College, was taken out at night.

 

A UPS driver’s image was picked up on Lord MK’s Ring Doorbell. The police report suggests that the driver looked eerily similar to Hillary Clinton.

 

It is now day 6. Lyner is the new elector.

that's taking the word deadline a bit too literal, lol

Get well soon Brewers

 

 

 Also if the EC role claims now we can end this game

So who is it? Kevin or Finster v3.0?

 

I was not told I am the Electoral College.

 

The Warrior - Killed a couple scum and claimed as Popular Candidate.  I believe him.

Lyner - The elector.  No point in voting for him because he casts the vote.

Finster Baby - Since I'm not the Electoral College, then he must be, which makes him town.

 

Conclusion - Lyner is a faithless elector.

Late-braking news!

I was told I really am the Electoral College.

 

Vote: Finster Baby

Vote: Finster Baby

Woah, Definitely missed this..

 

Can you elaborate please?

Late-braking (sic) news!

Initially, I did not receive word that I was the Electoral College.

Based on that, I previously thought Finster Baby was the Electoral College and that Lyner was scum, even though his play seemed townie to me.

 

Then Brewers wrote and said he forgot to notify me that I was the Electoral College.

Based on that, I now think that Finster Baby is the remaining scum.

I don't think Finster is going to show up. It makes sense that Brewers would force a replacement near the end of the game for the last remaining scum and as I noted earlier Finster probably doesn't care which side wins because he'll get a win no matter what now if he's the final scum.

 

Vote: Finster
