TwilightBard: Basically, the Lovers would win as long as they survive and either of their side wins.

Say, Lover A is Town, and Lover B is Mafia. If the Mafia wins, and the Lovers are still around, A wins. If B survives to the last day, is the last Mafia left, then he wins with A and it's a town victory. But if one dies, both are supposed to die. See why I'm very suspicious about this?

jefequeso: because Joe told me that that was how lover roles usually worked. I'm not sure exactly why X didn't abide by that, but...:P well, here I am!

SirPrimalform: When and how did Joe tell you this? Do lovers normally get to talk at night?

jefequeso: We had a forum set up by X. Like a private discussion board. I don't want to link to the site 'cause I'm not sure how close I am getting to overstepping the boundaries of the rules.

Rodzaju: So more Masons than Lovers?
Hmmmm.........

@Cruward - The problem is, you called it a trap that you'd catch someone who tried to give a recap that wasn't accurate. Now, I see that we'd catch it, but how would you? How could you have been able to catch a recap that's slanted towards a wrong choice by making it seem like the best choice without reading posts?

And you haven't been as active as most people, but I've noticed you posting just enough to satisfy the time limit given. It may not be perfectly 36 hours, but it seems to be fairly close.

jefequeso: We were both town, and our win condition was that we win if all mafia are eliminated (I'm not using the exact wording to avoid any issues with the rules). It didn't mention anything about us both dying if one of us died.

NotFrenchYet: What worries me is what a few people have picked up on - that he's more worried about getting lynched than being nightkilled. That's a very scummy outlook.

bazilisek: And what about the business about your role having changed slightly (#488)? How does that tie into it?

Damnation: I picked up on that fairly quickly, which was also one of the reasons I kept pushing him to explain why he thinks his survival is more important than town winning.

Damnation: Care to back this up with proof? I'm only asking cause I'm curious - and for two reasons. 1 - the mafiascum wiki page on lovers mention nothing about such a win condition, and 2 - that sort of win condition is directly opposing the Polygamist game setup.
Further, I'm slightly confused by your explanation. You mention if A is town and B is mafia, then both have to be alive in order to win, but that's against standard rules, unless it's a mafia win? I mean, town can only win if the mafia is gone? And how would that tie in with the mafia winning then? It seems more like you're suggesting that lovers are usually a third party or mafia role with a survivor win condition.

TwilightBard: Snip for ease of reading...

Rodzaju: The link that you posted says that "if either of the dies, the other commits suicide THE FOLLOWING NIGHT"

So perhaps this is straight up & Jefe will kill himself tonight?

Though the mafia wiki that I normally read doesn't mention this possibility....

Robbeasy: Can you explain please Baz why you think theres at least three?
