Quick Fix Game 14: Corruption in the Senate

[DeathClutch19 he/him]

But at this point, no one has any reason to believe anyone but themselves would make a good Governor. Except Maill, apparently...

 

Mailliw, do you have access to information the rest of us don't? An Eliminator doc, perhaps?

Or Mailliw realizes that the Governor is a big asset and just picked someone..

Avoi...Mahael Uret. Does that answer your question?

[Wonko the Sane he/him]

It... doesn't, no. I googled it -- something about Skindancers?

 

EDIT: I'll admit that I don't think Maill would be foolish enough to associate with a fellow skindancer in literally the second post of the game.

 

With two or more kills a turn, though, this game is going to go fast. We need to start learning things, and the lynch is a way to do that. I vote for a C1 lynch.

 

EDIT 2: I just reread the rules. I somehow missed that there's no Eliminator kill. Opinion rescinded.

 

That really changes the game. I need to think about this.

Bingo.

[Wonko the Sane he/him]

You're not helping. Maybe spell it out for me? Because you were allies in the last game, or something?

[Mailliw73 he/him]

You asked if I was in an Eliminator doc. That was the title of mine in LG18.

[Wonko the Sane he/him]

AH, okay, joke received. 

[TheMightyLopen he/him]

Senator Palpatine. Only nine more votes people(or ten?)! You'd be shocked at how good of a EmperorGovernor I'd be. 

[STINK he/him]

Hello people, it is I, Rod Clintham, the one and only Governor you will ever need. I can provide many things, including a stronger police force that would help catch the killer of the previous Governer, and to increase the value of boxings.

 

Rod Clintham

[Amanuensis he/him]

 

 

Rule clarification:

Can I target myself with an item? (Medkit) 

No. 

 

So, I'll go ahead and let ya'll know the reason Joe made this clarification is because I began with a Medkit and said I was likely going to protect myself. Since I can't, I would be happy if another Medkit owner claimed to me so we could protect one another.

^ Classic Amamma Mia! 

 

But seriously? Where is your vote for the OG (Original Governor) that is Rod Clintham?

As if I would vote for anyone else but myself, Biorney Sanderson. I don't trust any of you yet, and can not even fathom why somebody else would feel comfortable voting in favor of another. Anyway, Dyson Trump. If wealth is the reason you got a seat on the Senate you're just bound to be corrupt.

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

Do we only get one governor until they die? Or can we elect a new one every turn?

One until they die or get arrested.

I'm having trouble imagining any situation in which the use of drugs helps the Village. Does anyone else have any ideas in that regard?

Depends. The rules say drugs keep players from speaking in thread or PM, but does this keep them from doing anything in the Docs? If not, they're practically worthless for a villager

Yes. It prevents all communication.

Yes. It prevents all communication.

 

It can also prevent a player from voting, since they can't post in the thread. Only situation it seems ideal is if we find out someone is Corrupt ahead of time, drug them and then arrest them that next turn so that they cannot say anything to their docmates. That being said, can an arrested Corrupt Senator still communicate in the evil doc? I don't remember seeing that in the rules.

An arrested senator cannot talk in the doc, but his fellows can still start PM's with him via the holding cell PM rules.

[Firemuffin42]

I think we can agree that any governor other than Michael Flop would be a flop. Vote Michael Flop if you want to be at the top because you can't stop the flop.

[phattemer]

Rodent Optimus is the only candidate who will supply each Scadrian with a giraffe. Vote for Rodent!

Also, question about boxings. So the rules say all the boxings owned by the Constables are distributed among the voters in a successful lynch. Do we know how many boxings the Constables have, and do they ever get more?

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

There are at least 30 bags of boxings in the game. You do not know how many are currently in the hands of Constable Heatherlocke.

And because this has been asked several times, not everyone started with boxings and a item. Some have one or the other. The maximum starting amount of boxings is unknown.

[Straw he/him]

Dyson Trump must be stopped.

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

Do we have to add Meta to our PM's?

You can if you want to, but you don't have to. He has expressed a desire to see what's going on, so I will be adding him to all pm's eventually, but I enjoy waiting till there's a dozen or so and adding him to them all at once just to mess with him.

Wealth is not the reason i'm on the Senate, i just happen to be wealthy. I see the Socialist Biorney Sanderson discriminates against the wealthy.

Dyson Trump must be stopped.

StrawMan, I'm trying to stop the Corrupted. The ones who should be stopped is Palpatine and Sanderson.

Ritt Momney is the best choice for governor. I've already been governor once before and I even have my good friend Pedro voting for me. To prove to you all that I will use my governing power to the best of my ability I will start off the game by voting for a potentially corrupt senator, Vupreme Sermin!
