In that case, Aldurin is most likely the Town Mayor, then, as it fits Hush's [T. Elliot] style.

UNFORTUNATELY, it's ALDURIN and therefore the worst imaginable town role for him to be in. :/

...is Nikose just babbling incoherently, or what? Please tell me I'm not alone in completely failing to comprehend what he's trying to get at here.

If you had the ability to read words written on the screen, RO, you'd see that I'm busy lining up facts. Like I usually do in mafia. For instance: Aldurin is Thomas Elliot, Semi-Confirmed because he has a shitty role, that in all likelyhood is more than just a miller role.

Thomas Elliot is the Villain "Hush", and effectively WAS Bruce Wayne, in control of things, for the latter half of the House of Hush arc. Hush wants Batman dead as much as everyone else, AND Hush, working with Enigma, were running the show when they arranged their villain teamup.

Moogle's a comic junkie. Read up on "Hush Begins", and you'll find it bears a striking simularity to our game's layout in terms of roles and such. Aldurin's half-hearted roleclaim may have given us a very useful tool in defeating the Batman.

Based on Hush Begins, I think we can assume the following Mafia [or "Batman" roles, as it were]:

Bruce Wayne Batman, Tim Drake as Robin, Stephanie Gordon as Batgirl, Dick Grayson as Nightwing, and Alfred as... Alfred, I suppose. Alfred's pretty badass though, so that's not something to take lightly.

Those are the most likely mafia roles. I'm actually enjoying this so far, Moogle's using comic lore and that's sexyfun.

No, I'm saying that you deciding to pull that he's Town Mayor out of nowhere is stupid. Why would Hush be able to recruit Batman? Why would -any- of the villains? Just going from my limited knowledge of Arkham City and general skimming of Batstuff, Hush doesn't know that Bruce = Bat, and that would prevent any outright 'recruiting' for an operation to take down the Joker or whatever, since Bruce doesn't do that stuff.

How many villains actually know that Bruce = Bat, anyway? I can only think of Hugo Strange, and maybe Ra's/Talia Al Ghul.

I don't recall ever saying something so phenomenally stupid as recruiting Batman, RO. Once again, your ability to read is being called into question- alternatively, you're just trying to call me into suspicion, which is just as bad, really.

A Mayor or leadership role would fit Hush perfectly; Again, I direct your attention to the story arc I referenced in said post, only this time, I'll link it so that you only have to click a little string of blue words, instead of having to open a tab and google it:

Just click here.

it's 4 paragraphs and a sentence. I hope that summarizes well enough why my mind immediately suspected Hush to be a MillerMayor role.

Wait a sec, Nikose, you're extrapolating the "setting" just from the claim that there's a Thomas Elliot? The proposed mafiates sound good, though I'm not sure that they're restricted to the timeframe you mentioned (note, I have not read the comics).

I'm extrapolating off more then just Thomas Elliot; I'm also using knowledge of Moogle being a huge comic nerd. :P He's enough of a buff that he'll want to fit things to a specific arc. Go read the link; it should help.

That was an example of your flawed logic, it applies to anyone on your list, Batman being the most egregious example. I already read that paragraph, and those people he recruited didn't know of Bruce, whereas the list you seem to agree with me on has people all aware of Bat's identity. They would literally be impossible to recruit in-universe. And why the hell would a Town of this size need a Mayor, anyway?
