@Heph: Not a big deal but prof and I are still in the non voters list.


yeah I realized the other day, but forgot, that the formating from word doesn't translate well... your names were supposed to be barred and i'll edit.

Also Name =/= Alignment, it really doesn't make a difference. I can say from my personal experience, although it might provide some sort of hint as to the abilities the user gets.


It doesn't? Now, you're new, so I'm thinking there are several things.

Coupled with the fact that everyone has reacted to flips and info in a way that makes it seem like the majority of players are name= alignment, I find it hard to believe that this is true. My name = alignment, and I think it is the same with others.

Also, this is the first time name and alignment has been mentioned in an unsynchronized form. So for you to just come out and say this definitively doesn't make any sense. I'd like to know more, and would ask for your name, but I'd like to hear what other people think of name and alignment.



My role and alignment fit.

I also think there's enough names on both sides to pick from for Heph to create a game where all names fit.



Signature goes here!

Well, you know my name and alignment - they fit. I reckon this is going to be the case for all of us.

My Star Wars knowledge is null, I am probably one of the only people that grew up without watching the episodes back to back, having never seen one I had to google to know who on earth my character was, I was surprised with it and the role that I have received, considering it didn't really make sense unless of course it meant something else entirely. I thought I heard someone mention the alignment? Either that or I am tripping balls and confused the references with the last round.

OK, then let me come at the question from another angle.  What makes you think that Sith Lord isn't equivalent to Mafia Godfather? 

I had thought you were saying you were surprised Palpatine wasn't the Sith Lord, i.e. Mafia Godfather, when in fact you were saying you were surprised he was the Sith Lord instead of the Mafia Godfather.  Now I want to know where you are getting your information! 

Siths are called Sith Lords, just like Jedis are called Jedi Knights. The way I see it, Sith Lord is the equivalent of saying Mafia member so Starting Sith Lord would mean Starting Mafia member. This is where my surprise comes from: I'd expect Palpatine to be something like Master Sith Lord or Leader Sith Lord since he's running the show in the movies.

Ah, but then what is the Apprentice? 

The way I see it, if there's a Sith Lord, there's his Apprentice.  The Apprentice would obviously have to be a mafia goon, so it makes sense for the Lord to be the Godfather.  Or am I messing up Star Wars arcana somehow?

Though if everyone has the ability to appear as as innocent(really the only reason to include a godfather) then there really isn't any point in a cop... That's just my take on the matter...

And I agree with you. I took the "starting" to mean that he could be replaced. Which is basically what Sith lords are in the series... replaceable 



Sig thanks to Saber! :D

I hadn't thought of it that way because even if he's the Emperor's apprentice, Darth Vader is called a Dark Lord of the Sith but your interpretation makes sense too.

I guess the only thing we need to get out of this is that there's a possibility of scum scanning innocent, so we should still keep an eye on confirmed townies (by cop investigation).

If something backfired on linkz that killed him wouldn't it most likely be someones role causing it to happen?

So if ABC is lying someone else would be responsible and would know.


Hatmoza has already implied that he could have been responsible for this turn of events. Also, what makes you so sure about prof? I am naturally distrsutful of anyone who claims to be able to vouch for another player. Doubly so with the mafia godfather theory fitting so well from the perspective of lore and what limited info we have on game mechanics thus far.

I would think it might be more likly that he was the head of a cult. Unless you guys pay where godfather can be passed on like a cult leader status.

Might be why we have 1.5 vig and 1.5 cops at least
