I need to remove the mayor from power and stop a specific criminal. The difference in wording between mine and NQT's leads me to believe that there's more than one criminal at play.

ATH, do you have any idea how you'd go about removing the mayor without killing him given that lynching is apparently our only available tool? And since you don't have anything in your wincon about preventing the mayor being replaced, are you an election candidate?

fillipk, if the oil empire is just part of your flavour, why were you so interested in finding other people with access to oil? In other words, do you like to play with fire?

Well I imagine if there's a investigator they can find the mayor and theyed have a special ability where the mayor is instantly unmayored upon the start of the day.
And yes I can be a candidate if I choose to be but I am currently not one and since I have no reason to be afraid I am the head physician and as such I'm basically a doctor who can choose to be a mayor candidate but it says nothing about what that means really so I'll just stay doctor.

We aren't replacing the mayor, I'm not working with anyone who is trying to replace the mayor because that's gamethrowing for me. We all want the mayor gone, though.

It was an attempt to try and figure out the game and my hunch was that there were two groups of townies with slightly different win conditions.  Since my role flavor said I was upset at the mayor cause taxes I figured that people with my win condition could share some of my role flavor and I guessed the oil part.  Though with what I know now it might be the taxes part.

Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.

EBWOP: ATH: It kind of sounds like you are a survivor who can become mafia if one member (the mayor) of the mafia dies. Also, why would you choose not to be a mayor candidate?

Reading through the setup, it feels like my wincon doesn't agree completely with the flavour. Flavour suggests we have to replace the mayor, and yet I'm supposed to help prevent that from happening while removing the current mayor. It does actually feel like there are two different townie groups with separate wincons. Can anyone confirm that they want to remove the mayor and elect a new one in his place?

Well quite simply it says if I choose to become mayor I lose my night abilty and I quite like my night abilty and it's rather useful for the town as well.

I really don't buy that. Something is off with being able to choose to become mayor with an apparent detriment to you. Are you sure this decision is entirely within your control?

Day has been extended 1 hour, until 9:00 PM about 11 hours from now.

Because I will be busy until then.

The townspeople were always too busy fighting off the mafia to vote, so the mayor voted him/herself into office, and nobody knew who it was. Nevertheless, the townspeople prepared to find, kill, and replace the mayor who had been the source of all their troubles. Only time will tell if the Town will root out the mayor, and whether the mayor was in fact the source of the mafia incursions.

Okay, this is from the flavour section of the OP. The three highlighted sections are of note.

1. Those of the town that have signified an interest in replacing the mayor are likely to be mayoral candidates themselves, based on the green section.

2. The purple section does mention the town at large needing to replace the mayor, though we've had four of us (myself, TDS, Reverie and BlackHeartKabal) say they need to have no new mayor elected, and three of us (NQT, AHT and fillipk, though fillipk is speculation on my part) say a new mayor needs elected. DA needs to get rid of the mayor and a specific criminal, though this admission came after the whole "town have different wincons!? :o" thing, so I'll take that with a pinch of salt.

3. The mayor may not be the source of the mafia incursions, plural and non-specific, from the orange section. We may not be facing the mafia in this game at all, but that's super speculative on my part and it's D1, so don't quote me on it :P



So, onto da (other) players: (excuse the scatterbrained nature following this, my cat kept me awake for a lot of last night in trying to deal with the "I want food at cuddles at 4am every morning!" behaviour, and consequently I am knackered. There are not set in stone, just what I think at the time of posting.)

I'm inclined to think BHK has the same wincon as me, and probably TDS too. NQT seems to want to elect a new mayor, and based on the section of the OP I quote up top, I'm inclined to think they could become the mayor and they are the stronger player of the two, so I would prefer it if they were eliminated over ATH.

Unfortunately, ATH has actually confirmed they can be a candidate while NQT has not... so ATH it is.

Fillipk I'm a little less sure about. Mentions of an oil empire suggest to me he's a member of the "elect a new mayor" group of townies, but that's speculative at this point.

Moonlit is very bothersome, and if this were a normal game of mafia, he'd have my vote just now. He has been reactive, only responding to people if they ask him a question, and firing a question or two of little consequence back at that person.

Most egregious thing was here, in which he dips into the back-and-forth between myself and NQT with a little bit of a "yeah! What do you gotta say to that, m8y!?" which strikes me as an attempt to stir the pot...

DA and Reverie get no benefit of the doubt though. I feel their wincon claims came a little too long after we established that there is probably more than one wincon for town players.



DA's wincon also seems to be sufficiently different to warrant further investigation though.

I need to remove the mayor from power and stop a specific criminal. The difference in wording between mine and NQT's leads me to believe that there's more than one criminal at play.

What do you have to tell us about the criminal you're s'posed to get rid of?

Since you have a similar wincon to NQT, do you also have to replace the mayor?

Reverie

Can anyone confirm that they want to remove the mayor and elect a new one in his place?

Why are you trying to curry favour for your mayoral candidacy so openly? No Quicktopic?

Moonlit

seems to think the mayor is a survivor, and apparently doesn't need to kill them. Perhaps you would like to explain how you came to these two conclusions, particularly considering every other player has said the mayor needs to die?
