Hehe, I definitely identify with you on the first part; I know I am pro town, I only can suspect to a certain degree of confidence that the rest of you are pro town.
The second part, you gave me one example, and no links. I would appreciate more.

ecord, we should not "hammer" a director into being director before the week ends if that will start day one; with such a quick paced game we want to take all this pregame time we can to get reads on people and decide what the optimal role assignment is.
Right now I think a good starting setup would be:
1x Director
1x Deputy Director
2x Crypto Analysists
2x Field Agent
1x Counterintelligence Agent
4x Liasons
1x SIA
With the plan to quickly pull Liasons out and put them into crypto and SIA positions as needed. One good strategy I think we should do is have the White house Liason immediately put pressure on whatever other agency seems most useful; this will be invaluable when we are time crunched near the end of the game. One field agent should definitely be guarding the Counterintelligence Agent at all times, he is our cop and seems like a main scum target. That field agent could be the most scummy person in our view, because if he doesn't do as asked and guard the C-I-A, and the C-I-A dies, the field agent is almost assuredly scum. C-I-A and Crypto, along with director and deputy director, seem to be the most high profile roles and likely to be targeted for scum killings.
Cop information and Crypto information should not be publicly revealed, especially like having the cop say who he is investigating. Once the investigation comes in, maybe, but otherwise it just gives the scum a better chance of killing someone. Ditto with SIA positions; they should not reveal who they are targeting unless they get useful information, as scum have no incentive to kill SIA agents monitoring townies, but every incentive to kill SIA agents monitoring scum.
Those are my thoughts for now...
Do not lynch me.

Only other game I could find where I was town and there was a mayor was covert opps mafia, and I didn't want to be mayor in that game, because mayor couldn't be nightkilled, and with my role being very dangerous to the town I wanted to get nightkilled ASAP.
