Mafia Game #11 - Go to the Polls! Primary Elections

[LastPoet]

Heh, not lynching him really, just voting for him

[Aliza]

Vote Paleophyte

[Aroura]

From the Certitude Monitor

Our top Fact Checker has thoroughly researched the story that was reported in the Nanosecond News, and discovered that the story is True!
Senator Gulegon's proposal to extend the life of the sun is supported by the majority of scientists.

[Aroura]

Current polling indicates 4 out of 5 voters support Candidate Paleophyte.

Voting ends in 1.45 hours!

[Aroura]

Numbers tick by on the iNet, newscasters cover the voting live as the polls close.

Finally, all the numbers are tallied.

Senator Paleophyte wins! He will now run against the CriBby Candidate for the position of God-Emperor of Earth.

Congratulation, Paleophyte was the (mostly) Honest Politician! 

Voters Win!


p.s. I didn't set up a peanut gallery thread since no one expressed interest. You can chat here, or request such a thread is opened if needed.

This entire game was quite experimental, and I appreciate all participation, and welcome any criticism that might help improve a future game with similar mechanics.

Vote Paleo

All elections need to be held in this format.

Fine. 

Vote Paleo

[Joods]

This is what I get for posting whilst still reading. Yay Town!!!

[Aliza]

YAYYYYY!!!!!!

[Joods]

Thank you for hosting @Aroura . As confused as I was, I'm glad I stuck it out. I'm still confused tho. Doesn't take much. I'm not really that smart.

[Aliza]

Thank you so much for hosting, @Aroura!! I enjoyed this setup a lot.

[Aliza]

oh, who was the media bot?

[Aroura]

@Aliza LastPoet was the media bot.
I will ask if they are OK making their thread public.

@@Joods Thank you for sticking it out through this rough time in your life.

[Paleophyte]

Town win! Yay!

I was worried when Aroura told me that I'd have to play the Honest *snerk* Politician. Yeah, right! Like that's a real thing!

[TheGulegon]

I will ask if they are OK making their thread public.

By all means; post mine & LP's thread.

@LastPoet
You can take solace in the knowledge it wasn't poor play on your part, or master deductions from town, but my own shenanigans that lost you the game. Your placement of your stories was perfect, given they were the ones investigated.


My refusal to drop down out of character influenced the manner in which I stated my actual belief that death sticks were cigarettes, and money laundering was illegal.  Having known I posted a negative truth, I figured mine would be the one not pointing toward my having broken the law.  
It wasn't a scum slip, in that had I been the green politician, it still may have garnered too much attention.


Ah well.
Hopefully, Senator Paleo has just been elected to the same position as Captain Jack Sparrow, when the tribals wanted to cannibalize their God-King!


@Aroura
My only criticism is, next time, you should label them damn death sticks as heroine tubes, or crack cylinders!  joking
Otherwise, great game!   I had fun!!

[TheGulegon]

Oh!

[Edit]

And good game, town!

[Aliza]

Did I only investigate LP's stories?

[TheGulegon]

Did I only investigate LP's stories?

Actually, now that you mention it, I think you investigated my story, on the first set. You'll have to ask on the 3rd set, but I 5hunk you got mine, then, too. 

I just can't remember which LP put out, when.

[Aroura]

Aliza investigated Guley d2, LPs bot story d3, and Guleys story again d4.

[LastPoet]

GG everyone. Damn Guley, it didn't work.

Oh well thanks for hosting 'Roura.

[Mathilda]

Oooh we won!

Glad I didn't change my mind about Paleo after all.
