    If you guys are about to elect someone then the Lutherans are boned, because this means we've eliminated or know about all of them. There's no reason to eliminate by country evenly, because even with a country completely out, you can't elect someone until the Lutherans are dead unless you just want to gamble in which case we should have done it day 1.

    Also, everyone revealing their nationality publicly just made 16 enemies (- however many were Lutherans).

    I knew what I was doing when I said my nationality. I'm determined not to die like a dog in this game and do something useful.

    No, it just means we do know someone who isn't a heretic. Perhaps there's another seer? A backup? Guard a seer target, purple vote them and boom game over. The reason that won't happen is that no single alliance will have enough support to force the vote and, having revealed allegiances, the mafia will ensure no alliance can gain support until we kill them all off and the last cardinal alive emerges from the THUNDERDOME Sistine Chapel as LAST POPE STANDING

    There is also the possibility of the lutherans gaining a bonus, for example an unblockable kill, if they know the target's nationality. Don't like the idea of someone having a master list of everyone's nationalities until we have a better idea of all mechanics associated with them

    I don't have much time, so I sort of skimmed, but MrT is not confirmed in any way at all, right?

    Nope. But it is in our best interest to communicate as much as possible, and if you're Spanish/Italian/French, I'd like to have a word with you about electing an Italian Pope.

    Aaaaand we trust you why now?

    Is it not hilariously apropos to point out that roguelike Cardinal Quest is free today?

    Yes, that's what the following sentences expand upon

    No, your following sentences say why a strong (not weak) mafia would want to try and prevent that. I'm saying that it's so unlikely that the mafia need not concern themselves with it.

    How many of them are not mafia, and will believe that a proposed candidate is not mafia?

    MatevMatev Cero Miedo Registered User regular
    The math gets a bit fuzzier there. If we go by traditional mafia ratios, 16 of those cardinals should be reliable, it then becomes a matter of everyone talking.

    6 might be a bit much, but the point stands. The numbers dwindle quickly, and staying above the 2/3 mark becomes remarkably difficult if the mafia are strong enough that the village still needs to worry about them.
