the above is utter horseshit.

The governor is like 95% a scum role. The only hosts who give town governor shots are hosts who dont know what the fuck they are doing, because in the only scenario where town would consider using it (sensibly) theyve already basically lost anyway

 

[Odo]

He's clinging to the PHEN0M wagon which was started off very flimsy reasoning.

Why did he not choose the Smark wagon?

My boy ... brings a tear to my eye, it really does

 

[Rugrat]

Quite happy to say Jeff is town. this sort of whack mechanic could lead to scum winning a game by getting a lynch at 6/2

 

[Odo]

Yep, I thought Jeff was fairly towny anyway, but this solidifies it nicely

 

[Odo]

Which I suppose also looks good for Skybox? Giving early town reads unprompted as scum isnt her bag

Governor

Governor Alias:​ Mayor Alignment:​ any Role type:​ Voting Choice:​ Twilight

A Governor is a role that can stop a lynch. This is done by PMing the mod during Twilight to stop the lynch. Many moderators will extend Twilight substantially so as to allow the Governor ample time to make a decision. If the Governor stops a lynch, the Day ends with no one getting lynched.
Because Governor can stop the Town's main weapon in the lynch, Governors are very frequently X-Shot.
Governors have been known to be able to self-target, but only if they are X-Shot.
In games where No Lynch is not allowed or whoever receives the most votes at deadline is lynched, Governor can be used to cause the person with the second-to-most votes to be lynched instead.
This role is traditionally pro-Town, but in practice can be of any alignment.

So I guess my scum lottery picks right now would be

Smark, Haza, OMB and then one of Brutus/Chimp?

Subject to change, of course

 

[Odo]

I do not care what epicmafia.fandom.com says

I care what our history and common sense says

 

[Odo]

also, what youve quoted pertains to a role that cant end the day with a no lynch, which isnt comparable to what we have here

Which is why we dont use garbage like epicmafia.fandom.com

Your house rules don't matter when it comes to what the role was designed to do.

 

[Odo]

It said it can't override a no-lynch.

Wiki Scum is the better resource and it says pro-town as well.

We are. You read it wrong.
