Everyone is Zaealix Mafia (Mafia)

In my own opinion it would be the opposite, unless the GM was willing to just place the role onto Zaealix. It just seems like a very odd thing to do, narratively.

But there is a Prime Zaealix; Zaealix himself. Creating another and misnomering him feels silly.

My old self was not actually me; so no, I wouldn't be. That said, I am now a Zaealix through and through... although I suppose there should be an emphasis on "now", according to my own PM.
If you knew people could be people other than themselves, your previous posts don't make sense.

They do, for two reasons.
First, who we used to be is not our role. It is a flavour text explanation for our role.
Second, If you had actually paid attention, I never actually claimed that such a position could not exist. I simply complained that doing so seems silly. We're arguing over whether it makes sense or not, not whether it does in fact exist.
 
Rusty and a major (internal) writing deadline this weekend. That is to say that I plan to play D1 somewhat quietly, but will probably get very frustrated with real work and just hyperfocus on this for a while mid-day.

I don't know about this one. Number 15 strikes me as if he's going too far to try and blend in, but in the end overdoes it. Number 15 has to be a pretender.
 
Um guys? There's probably enough going on, between me, Cat, and Snickers (would have voted them b4 cat did their thing probably, like, that second post is mildly accusatory, but doesn't really go anywhere, and the accusations aren't the best) that there are some decent people to vote on. People have kind of moved on from just voting Zaealix. We actually have a surprising amount of info for a closed setup, including several players saying things that I know I'm not the only one who's seen.
 
How exactly is SnickersZaealix in any way suspcious? I think you're just trying to draw attention away from yourself.
 
Just a totally normal Zaealix, passing here.

And it looks like we already have quiet the number of votes. I'm not voting just yet. Maybe later when something caught my eyes.
 
Zae Zae zaeliax!
I am not sure if CCC is not zae because so far it sounds like something that could be based on the reading of the vanilla zaeliax card and my gut thinks it more of town on town but my d1 stuff is never good.
Which is why I am holding back with the voting right now .
 
I am Zaealix and obviously I must do the most me thing.

I don't know but you seem to be posting the most. :V
 
I mean, it's explicitly a mind altering disease, with the rebels being those who resisted its effects.
Okay hold on a second, can you point me anywhere where it is "explicitly a mind altering disease, with the rebels being those who resisted its effects"?
The opening post is extra vague about how someone changes and not once it got labeled a disease.

If you're asking if my role is 'me, but converted to Zaelix' then yes, that's correct. That's on the vanilla role card though, so I could be lying.

Now that is either just giving unnecessary information or misdirection.
I also never said cult, and one person isn't 'rising'.
Unless you only speculated on possible kill flavours then I see no way conversion doesn't insinuates a cult like ability.

Ridding myself of my earlier meme vote, would feel really bad if Zae dies day 1 to a meme in what's practically his own game.

That said going to hold off on placing my vote elsewhere at the moment, little confused on where this cult idea originated, though that may be because I very quickly glanced over when I woke briefly last night, so wasn't at my best. Will give things another quick read then come back.

I've played games before that have a one- shot convert for the mafia n1, which helps balance out anything crazy that happens early in a game. Heck, I've played a game where

All I'm saying is that the flavor is that everyone but the elims got converted to Zaealix, so conversion is already there. And if it's there in the backstory, it's more likely than a typical closed setup for it to crop up in-game too. It's just me throwing out what rules stuff I can, like I said in the post itself.

I explained this. Their second post, and first actually substantive post, is kind of muckraky, but non-commital. It's not much, but like, I'm trying to state my reads.
Stating reads when under suspicion is not sus. It's the one thing you can do when people accuse you of things D1, since nothing is based on actual info. If I'm elim, I'm elim, but I'm one of the people with the highest post count, so that'll get revealed sooner or later.
 
Split because quotes are being finicky on mobile.

Here's from the opening post.
First, there was only one - and the SV Mafia discord server lived in peace. But then... there were two. None knew why the second came, or where from... but it spread. Quickly. Soon, the server was taken over completely. All was Zaealix. No longer divided in will
If this isn't a disease, it's something that spreads, so it's something pretty similar. And no longer divided in will means they all want the same thing, which sounds a lot like mind control to me.
 
Right, but there's two layers to the game.
First , there's who we actually are, as players. Then, there's our roles, some of which share names with people.

The role card has a spot for who we were previously. Mine just says me, but based on the bit about people who were close to him, I'm currently unsure whether or not that means anything, but my guess is yes, since there would be no reason to include it unless it could be something other than the user's actual name.
The order here also is off, first stating as fact that the roles share names with people and then speculating that maybe the name in your role isn't the same as your own.

OK yeah that does seem a little off, especially since they're claiming regular town so should have no way of knowing if that's indeed the case, but still seem rather certain on it.

Don't think anyone offered that as a possibility before, they're purely claiming this idea as being pure speculation?

This and the push to our name mechanisms in general is bad.

When saying roles share names with people, that was part of a simplified explanation about specifically my thoughts on Zaealix Prime. Zaelix Prime shares the name with OOG Zaealix. Additionally, I'm still not sure whether to count 'who you previously were' as the role name or not. At the time, I wasn't completely sure if it could be different from your username, but I thought it was very likely because otherwise it makes little sense to include. I hope that makes things make more sense.

But we don't even know if there is a Zaealix Prime role? The lore may mention him sure, but we can hardly expect a superior being to join us squabbling in the dirt, there's still the possibility it may be pure fluff.

Yes, which is why it's speculation, which I said it was. I'm better at private conversations, or rules stuff, than I am analyzing people. So, I generally try to speculate on rules d1, which people get sus of, which then generates info for other people later.
And Zaealix Prime is almost certainly a role, because there's no way someone was designing this game and decided to not make it.
