[Game Thread] HBO Rome Mafia Game

I was just about to say that I know the cover of a porn movie when I see one, but alas, this is but a dirty story.

Did you know that Sierra Cartwright wrote her first book at the age of nine and hasn't stopped since?
She must have cramp in her fingers by now.

I did not know that. I was just 100% certain that googling "three way tie" would get me something funny. 😳

A friendly reminder, I am anti-Gorny. We must stop his rebellious ways!

Here is another shotgun blast and/or smorgasbord of quotes:

Skjolde and Gorny, Don't mind my saying it, but you two make unlikely friends. 🏛️
Let's stop all this blathering and get down to business, shall we? Gorny needs to be punished! 🏛️
I ask you as a friend to support the proposal and to enjoin your many friends to do the same. Together we can bring stability back to Rome! 🏛️

Who do you think/know that Gorny is, since you are against him?
 
Hmmm it seems we can have a Caesar vs Pompey right here...

It wouldn't surprises me from Gorny to not hide as a leader (because what for?! PLAY SERIOUSLY, PLAY BALLSY!!!), but I wouldn't say the same from Zhao...IMO he's just fishing, while not having a *labelled* major role, taking advantage of this situation.

Our men must win or die 🏛️
 
You would think we would end in this situation sooner or later.
In terms of balancing and breaking such a potential stalemate, there must be some neutral players, that could see the reason in voting either way.

Why the vote on Zhao?

Why should I vote for you? Happy to hear an argument, but the you and Gorny back and forth love fest is headed towards violence that I want to avoid (even if that may be impossible)
 
There is no violence in my role description. I think the Gorny back and forth should more be seen as us trying to see how we stand in relation to one another.
I will be blunt and say that I think that Gorny has some of the same interests as me, but I am not entirely sure who he is.

I wish to restore restore peace and prosperity back to the common people.

We all know that Gorny is the sheriff of Rottingham and going down.

I call on all true and gods fearing Romans to support Zhao in his defiance of Pompey’s tyranny!

If you read out interactions it is a bunch of back and forth questions since none of us are ready to expose ourselves before the other.
Which I think goes for anyone in this game and mafia games in general.
 
Thing is, we need information. Skjolde and Gorny won their respective elections, did some night actions and nothing was revealed except story elements. This story elements, while interesting to read, offer no concrete evidence to move forward in the game itself. Remember we're not playing Roman History 101, but mafia.

When Gorny's smoldering carcass is lying beneath my feet and we get to see his alignment, I'll also reveal my role so we have a lot more to work with. Mafia teams traditionally use lack of information to misdirect and sabotage townies.

Also I feel this game is too slow paced and it would be good to spice it up a bit.
 
So Leo, I stepped in to defend your honour and I didn't even get a 'hey-there-big-boy' response. I was expecting some epic, sizable post. I'm pretty sad.

Am I batting for the wrong team?

So what happens when you get elected? Surely you know that already.

I agree. It is a very interesting setup, but the pace could be adjusted for potential future games like this (where there is no vote to lynch)
