Vote: Hero of Music
Also suspicious of Justeazy now.
I don't know any contradiction in my posts and am very skeptical something wasn't just grossly misunderstood or being used against. Do you honestly think
I would slip up anything significant this early in the game? Honestly ask yourself that. Of course that's exactly what I'd be saying if I did slip up, just as I would be if I didn't. Justeazy is clearly playing closed-hand. He claims to have seen something and when he's asked to elaborate, he's vague. He won't explain his vote right out, which never makes me comfortable with a player. He could just be that kind of player, but it also seems like inexperienced Mafia framing. Was Castlevania Mafia the first Mafia game Justeazy played? I can't remember if he played earlier.
As for me, as always here's my reason for voting: There is no reason for Hero of Music to do any kind of roleclaim at this stage. There was no pressure, no reason. He's either acting with chaotic, nonsense behavior to confuse things, or he's trying to set himself up as safe early on... for no real reason. There's no pro-town reason to roleclaim right now. None whatsoever.
I've actually never heard of a Role or Name Cop. In my experience off-site, most cops just get the alignment of the character, not their name or Role, so yeah. Thief works similarly, but you only get an item relating to the character: therefore, you'd be on your own trying to figure out whether or not one would be Mafia, Town, or Third Party. Granted, if you know the theme/have access to a good Wiki, it would be a cakewalk finding out who is who. As far as how there being a Name Cop supports my belief on there being a Survivor, I'm not drawing any matches. Care to elaborate, Axle?
Name Cops and Role Cops have cropped up in the last two games on this site, Batman Mafia and Castlevania Mafia, respectively. Name Cops investigate the NAME of the player's role, like Gary, Brock, Giovanni. Role Cops get their ROLE, not their alignment (although sometime's that's included), like Cop, Doctor, Strongman, Mafia Roleblocker, etc.
Might not be common, but they crop up. Forgot about about alignment cops though. Haven't played games with them lately. And I've never really been in a game with a Thief, but that's also possible.
Um. Please read again. I said the lack of a JESTER supports the presence of a Survivor. Because there's only so many established kinds of third-party roles (most of them are just variations on Serial Killer, like the Poisoner or Arsonist), and the ones I'm familiar with are pretty much only Jesters, Survivors, Cults, and Usurpers. Survivor seems most likely out of all of them, what with Ky's hatred of Jesters.
Except there really isn't a character who would really fit a Usurper. You gotta remember (and this goes for everyone) that, when you suggest what a role might be, first off, if there isn't a character likely to be said role, the role is most likely not in the game (for instance, say we're playing a game themed around the Mario platformer games; there aren't any characters who ever betrayed the main villain/plotted to betray the main villain in any of them, therefore there wouldn't be a Usurper. However, there is a very good chance of there being a Beloved Princess due to the fact that Princess Peach exists).
I'm totally unfamiliar with Pokemon, aside from
some first gen stuff, so there's no way I could make a call on the likelihood. Either way, creative liberties can be taken with the role and name combinations.
