A note for you all: Events and nations in this game may or may not resemble what happened IRL.

I don't think you can vote for yourself, Arix. Even if you can, that is really suspicious

How's it suspicious? Wouldn't you normally vote for yourself? You're the only one you know is safe to vote for a position of power.

It's not like the leader thing where there are required characteristics you may or may not have (probably), so it's always in your interest to vote for yourself, right?
Doman2008-09-10 02:59:51
That doesn't seem quite...right, everyone's just gonna Vote themselves. I'm gonna

UNNOMINATE SHIRI

cuz he is getting a lot of votes, and I want to get a feel for everyone, first

You -can- nominate yourself.

Also, who the hell carries around a pocket calculator?

It's in the desk next to me! It just happens to be pocket-sized.
Doman2008-09-10 03:00:48
meh, shiri ninja'd me, but it is a bad habit, cuz then everyone will just vote for themselves, and it's suspicious, because mafia is gonna vote for themselves and any other mafia
Diamondais2008-09-10 03:00:52
Going to Nominate Shadow and Requiem, no real reaason. We have no information to go on and they seem nice enough people!

I have a whole 3, but ok, there's nothing particularly recommending me and without knowing what the security council stuff does and whether I'd be good for it I'm not gonna risk a roleclaim.

And yes everyone's going to vote for themselves, at least at first. Maybe if it comes down to a 3-way race and you have no shot you'll unvote yourself in favour of your two most preferred candidates (if the last one screams scum to you).

Should we sort this out before sorting out a lynch? The security council members might find out more info about what that does, right?

As opposed to what, voting for two other mafia? Or one other mafia and one random without a chance at winning?

VOTE SILVANUS
Doman2008-09-10 03:05:03
And that's a fair point, Shiri, since you're saying that...

NOMINATE DOMAN

I always wanted to be able to tell other countries what to do, Imma be an intelligent george bush!
Rika2008-09-10 03:05:25
Oh, to make things fair:

If you did not get a win condition, you are Neutral, and are town. Normal town win rules apply.
Arix2008-09-10 03:15:34
I voted for myself because I felt like it, and Shiri was an RNG vote.

Also, VOTE: DOMAN for wanting to be George Bush. Anyone who wants to be that guy is clearly scum.
Casilu2008-09-10 03:20:18
Nominate Casilu and Othero

Now, back into the shadows of global politics until I see something worth change.
Casilu2008-09-10 03:27:27
Oh, and there is one benefit of security council membership most people seemed to forgot other than the veto power. Legally, they are the only countries allowed to have and use nuclear weapons. Though, seeing as most people didn't know that, I doubt that is what we're voting for.
Arix2008-09-10 03:31:32
I just thought it sounded cool
Doman2008-09-10 03:32:55
hmm, that Nuclear weapons bit seems scary...Rika DID mention there could be nukes

Mhm, they also have a few other nifty things they can do which may or may not be good!
Arix2008-09-10 03:34:01
Keep in mind this is set in 1945, and only a few countries have the resources to build them
Unknown2008-09-10 03:36:08
Before I go off to class, I'll NOMINATE SILFERRAS AND SHIRI. The first because, like the others, I'm the only person I'm certain is town, and the Shiri because RNG said so. And RNG didn't lie when I used it to random-vote for rika in the last game.. huh.gif
