For all new players, and rusty players, Rule #2 is of UTMOST importance.

2. Do not edit/delete previous posts. Whatever you say goes into historical record.

Mostly bringing this up because I almost went back and edited my post...

I watched the first 2 seasons, then it got too silly for my tastes. It was on my to watch list, guess it got bumped up.

CYBER
05-16-2014, 08:48 PM
I started sending out the roles. When everyone is confirmed I will post the day 1 scene and the game will officially begin.

And blackmage hit it on the nail: NO MATTER WHAT, UNDER ANY Circumstances, do you edit a post.

If you want to add on to something you simply reply again and build on it, if u said smthn wrong and want to correct it, you clearly disclose that you made a mistake, typo, miscomprehension and the following is to rectify said error.


Even for voting, heck ESPECIALLY for voting and claiming, you use'vote: name' in BOLD RED, or 'unvote' in bold green, and "vote : no lynch" in bold yellow to make it easy for me to go through the infinite posts looking for votes. You Never edit anything and you can simply unvote a person a revote another or the same person again as many times as u want, I wouldn't mind, so longrule 2 is never broken or THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES depending on severity

"LIKE I SAID, I didn't do it! No matter what that fucker on the outside thinks. I'm being framed."
- Yeah yeah we know! You're innocent, everyone here is innocent! Right papi? Still, in Fox River, you have to know who you want to keep close, and who to keep closer. Now are the rumors true?
"What rumors?"
- There's talk that you, Mr innocent, and some recently incarcerated loco have plans in motion to get the hell out of this shit place. Between the guards, the surprise inspections, and the powerhungry dirtbags ruling this joint, I could use a little fresh air, comprendes? And speaking of locos...
"Where the hell were you? Any updates yet?"

>> I had to get my daily doze of "insulin". And as for you,the rumors are true. But for the time being, let's keep it on the down low for the day. I need to do my own assessment of who to bring along, we don't want any obstacles here, and that includes people who want us bending over, locked up or dead. Are we clear?
- Hey, just count me in. I'll watch your backs, hermanos.
>> Good. Bottom line is, we're breaking out of Fox River when the time is right. And the time is right when we've weeded out everything and everyone that can screw up with us getting our freedom. Wait, what the hell is happening!?...





EVERYONE LINE UP in front of your cells!


Don't you fucking tell me what to do. Remember who you're dealing with. We can make your life a living hell here, remember that.



​Lay off me man, I'm just doing my job. EVERYONE STRAIGHT TO THE YARD. We have some "guests" over for a surprise inspection!

"Surprise inspection? By who?"
- This is gonna be a looong day, amigos...

For those who remember, Every now and then, especially when a lot of votes and unvotes happen, I will post one of those pictures of the current tally.
Always remember that if you find a mistake in the picture, make sure u inform me in this thread. And I will either confirm a mistake and fix, or deny any mistakes happening.

Currently. 14 players alive. need 8 on same person to lynch.
you "vote: nameOfPerson" and "unvote" by writing them with this font and color to make it easier for me to scroll through.

This game is specifically designed to enforce communication among players to optimize the gameplay. So make sure you open up all sorts of conversations because boosting forum activity is the sole reason for this game :)

Remember, you cannot talk to anyone about this game outside of this thread, that includes possible partners and trying to solicitate information from the mod. I will reserve the right to ignore your communications to me if need be. No editing allowed.

If someone is not active ESPECIALLY when PROMPTED to be active by the mod in order to get the show going, OR if someone breaks any rules, I can reserve the right to punish that person and/or replace them.

Anyhoo, I'm all for a no lynch info day
Info is our friend :D

Blackmage
05-18-2014, 11:37 AM
Well, the first question becomes, does anyone want to volunteer any information?

Given we have an unknown number of VTs, do we want those players to claim so we don't waste docs on them, or have them stay undercover so the enemy has a harder time shanking the power roles? Not claiming has the problem of letting people hide under the guise of VT when they don't want to claim later, but I think hiding our resources is a good plan.

If we suppose one of the "good" inmates has a "gun/shank", do we want them to use it? If it's one use, I'd say no, but if it's multiple use, it can be used in lieu of a D1 lynch, granted relying on the paranoia of one man. Though we might have a shank anyway if we have a SK.

Anyone want to venture and guesses as to the flavour, such as what the sides are like, or the setup? How many VT and mafia do we think we have? With 14 players, something around 9-5, 9-4-1, 8-4-2. Probably 3 to 5 VT. Mafia probably have 1 or 2 powers. Or do we want to just not make any assumptions? Do we think we have more than 2 sides? I'd assume not, but given how much loyalties shift, could be 2 mafia with 2 or 3 each. On the game flavour, I'm only about half way through the first season, and the only "true" enemies I can see are prison guard McDick and the government people. Everyone else are "good", begrudging allies, or wildcards.

Everyone else are "good", begrudging allies, or wildcards.

"People claim VT": A: No way to prove any claims, so I don't see the value. Why wouldn't mafia or a third party claim to be VT? No way to verify and its not like you can call people out on that since we will have a good number of them.
B: Even if all the VT claim, and everyone believes them, you just narrowed down the number of targets for the mafia significantly, which is a terrible idea.
C: VT are by their nature, relativity expendable, you don't want them all to die obviously, but if its them or town power role, like doctor or cop, you're going to choose VT to die all day. So you want them in there to generate confusion.

"Vigilante" A: Why would we encourage the vigilante, or some other role with a gun, to fire a random shot tonight? If you think its best to not lynch during the day, I fail to see how randomly killing someone at night based on one person's beliefs will be any better.
B: If its a serial killer, they need to be found asap. While they can kill mafia at night, its much more likely they will hit town since town should greatly outnumber the mafia.

"Players" With 14 players, I would guess 4-5 non-town, so it could be a few mafia and a serial killer or some other third party. We can make all of the assumptions we want about the set up, but at this point its pure speculation. Also, this was supposed to be a relatively simple game to work the new players in, not role maddness, so it should not be like there is a bunch of weird ass night powers going off.

I'd much rather avoid time limits, but they have been enforced in the past until story was on track.

05-18-2014, 06:15 PM
Well, first, I let out the portion of that post mentioning I am generally against D1 no lynch. As someone once put it, "Lynching can kill scum, scum kills can't". Voting also leads to more information, ect. But given we already have 2 people suggesting no lynch, and not even 1 joke vote, I was looking for a way to still try to get a scum kill. I also DO trust most people here's judgement solo, more than I trust mobs. Also, if we come out collectively and say "don't shoot" rather than leaving it in the air, we make claiming "vig" harder.

On the VT claim. The information it could give us depends on what roles we think are in the game. If we have a tracker, watcher or role cop, we could check the claims. Town players could bluff as VT to hide power roles. Same as it lowers targets for the scum, it lowers the targets for our doc. If scum claim VT, our doctor wouldn't be protecting them either, so our doc would actually have an even better shot at protecting the right target. It's information we can use, just as they can. Since people are suggesting NL D1 for the sake of information, I brought it up. It's an option, I'll admit not a great one, but I'd rather not just dismiss something that could be of some use to people.

Flavour side of things, that's just me looking for any possible information. Since I'm not caught up on the show, input on who the bad guys of the show, and what scum profile they fit if any, and what kind of town roles we might have. Also, if people think Cyber would do 2 small mafia families or not. It's also good to know if people are on the same page about the size of the scum and power roles.

You never really know where things will lead, so I was just spitballing ideas, and trying to get as much information as I could.

Cyber: between new players, and college people, hopefully it'll get better soon. Early morning Sunday may have just been an awkward start time.

What
05-18-2014, 07:14 PM
Well Blackmage, I think that may be my quote about first day lynching. I just feel that the debate to lynch someone does develop some information for people to use, and you do have the chance of hitting a mafia or third party, which would be a big jump on things. I also feel that information gathering at night, especially the first night, is no guarantee, and then you run the risk of a day 2 where you have no real information, and are almost guaranteed to be down at least one townie.

Nemesis
05-18-2014, 07:17 PM

as for lynching or no, it's a crapshoot if we do it. no info to go on. all that's gonna happen is one person gets lynched and whether they're town or not, they're not gonna be happy and may not want to play again. as a courtesy to everyone involved, i say no lynch. in fact, i like that argument a lot.

Vote: no lynch

Sorry I've been teaching a lifeguarding class this weekend and just ended up sleeping and fucking up my sleep schedule :banghead::banghead:

I would edge to the side of those who would not want to lynch on the first day as well as I think it would just end up being way too random. On the other side of the argument though lynching on day 1 leads to us having more information on the second day to help guide us through. Gonna wait for more people to put in their opinions before solidifying any sort of vote since I'll probably be up all night anyway X.x

Nemesis

So I find it strange that Old Bastard, a new player. Has been on all day but hasn't posted, other than to confirm. That makes it seem as if someone has told him not to post, and there's only one group of people who can do that.

What
05-18-2014, 09:44 PM
There are a lot of people who haven't posted yet. Forum hoverers that I have seen so far are Scribble and Phil, irish posted to confirm after the game started. Also, this thread seems to have a lot of people looking at it, but not too many people logged in, which could include Tom, Lily and literally everyone else. Also, you have now implied twice that certain people are not talking due to be instructed not to, but that would in itself imply that those people have already broken the rules, since no one should be fucking talking to each other during the day. I am leaning towards you just using this as a tactic to actually get people to post on the thread though.

Also at Bert's comment. As a courtesy to what? Have them do nothing during the day and then get killed at night? Yeah, that was way more fun, woo.

exactly, if someone plans on being inactive for any length of time, they should make it known here. i.e. ""got a huge day of work tmrw, may not be able to post for 10 hours.""

Furthermore, being that we all lack information perhaps we open discussion regarding the series. Discuss whom the main characters are and gather some insight as to what we are looking at. I peronally have never watched the show, so im a bit lost in regards to what i should expect to see for roles.

Okay, for the people suggesting a info gathering day, how are we planning on getting information? Do we think we have more than one cop/investigator? If it's more than one, how reliable do we think it is? While I hope it wouldn't be sanity cops, a number (such as watchers/trackers/voyeurs) don't tell alignment, some (sensor, forensic) require lynches, bodies or something strange. Also, to get the information, we require an investigator outing himself, and possibly an ally.

For example, with a working cop, I see the following possible results of his night. 1. He finds the guy that was killed, we learn nothing. 2. He's killed, we learn nothing. 3. He finds an innocent. 4. He finds a scum. 5. He gets false information, due to Godfather or Roleblocker or Bus, ect. The first two mean he can't give any information. The 3rd means we out our cop, but have 2 clears, or else end up getting no information. The fourth means we have a free kill and an outed cop, or we have a gambling cop and no new info. The fifth case means we either have no new info, or we get in trouble.

If instead people are thinking we should do follow the cop, I'd vote against. If they have a strongman, Cop's dead right away. If they have a roleblocker, we never get info.

Locust: We pick someone by consensus, in this case, I'd probably aim for a newbie to get them in on the action, force them to role claim or die, and continue this process till we've either screwed ourselves, or found someone expendable/unbelievable. When I say expendable, I don't necessarily mean the first VT claim because we probably would hit one of those early on, but we wouldn't want to get more than 2 or 3 VT before we nuked one to protect the heart of the swarm.

I dont understand why you are pushing your conversation right now. Speculation with no facts to speculate on, is futile.
Im in favor or no lynch, however, if memory serves me right.... Brett is forever the God Father xD

@locust, it generally boiled down to who was the least active or who caused the most drama and uproar on day 1.

There will be some of that I guess regardless in this kind of game from what I have gathered, but in the show there is plenty.

Brett: Can you tell me, under what circumstances, the investigator(s) should come out day 2? Also, if there is a situation where you'd have no investigator come out, what would you have us do day 2?

One problem with expecting information is, we know what we get is going to be limited. This is not role madness. Supposing we lose our cop or doc N1, we would be mostly SOL in the night investigation front. Cop either gives us the N1 info, or keeps risking death every night thereafter. If we lose one D1, at least we have words and actions to go by.

I do agree we should try to get information day one, and given we're playing an even numbered game, D1 no lynch is more feasible than an odd number, but I want to be convinced we will be guaranteed information via no lynch like we are with a lynch.

As a side note: No lynch or not, try not to let voting get too high until after the last few stragglers get around. Even if the votes don't matter, what they have to say may.

Second side note: If anyone ever fake votes/unvotes by not colouring it, I probably won't know for a while, because I usually have no coloured text visible. I'll be trying to remember to check them all, but be warned if I start complaining about votes that didn't happen, it's my own fault.

Now Brett has immediately voted for a no-lynch one the first day, very much out of his usual behaviour. I also find he is being purposely confrontational and out of character, as to draw focus elsewhere.

At this point it appears to simply be you, pushing buttons. In attempts to get some sort of viable information. The only thing suspicious about him at this point is the fact that he was the first to vote no lynch, which we could suspect as him attempting to save face early in day 1 as it is usually natural for the mafia to advocate for a day 1 lynch. Even then though... it is still speculation and no where near enough to warrant a lynch.

Some saying that voting no lynch quick in the first day is moving too quickly, that we need more information. While this is true I would assume that people wouldn't start spilling information from the get go, and that and disable amount of worthwhile information would need to be gathered from the results of the first day/night

But if people are so eager to share then so be it I suppose

But atm I don't see enough sharing to make a decision, so instead of risking lynching the innocent without enough info, and possibly having two dead townies after the first cycle, I'd rather play it safe and keep my vote

What
05-19-2014, 10:34 AM
What I think the information decision boils down to, is that if the vote to no lynch goes too quickly, then no one has posted much of anything and there is no information to either go on in the future or refer back to.
That being said, is Brett saying some out of character things, yes. Is Nem surely trying to get more information out of him and others, yes. As it is now, there are like 6 people talking out of 14. Most of the newbies have not said anything, which may be a symptom of them being incompetent, or them having signed up for something they dont understand.

The way I think a first day lynch generates info, is kind of from what we have just seen. It will not be easy to get enough votes for somebody, so there will have to be some convincing and arguing going on. While this may not pay dividends for Day 1, it does provide a good body of information for later.

First, im on my phone, forgive typos. Second, I understand your reasoning for wanting to lynch but try and reflect on past games. It hardly ever works. Remember thst any accusation made at this point is 100 percent speculation and should not be used against somebody later in game becsuse they made a false accusation with any evidence. The only other thing we gain from lynching now, aside from funny bickering, is a claim or two. Which will end up hurting us, especially if the person we pressured was an essential role.

- - - Updated - - -

With out any evidence*

The end of the day I think its safe to say that we are looking for people to talk so that we may have the afforded chance to use what they say day one as leverage later in the game.

I still don't see how lynching day 1 helps us at all.

the odds are against us. And if we lynch an inno, then the mafia kills someone the next night (unless doctor is HELLA FUCKING lucky). We're down 2 innos and no closer to finding anything.

What
05-19-2014, 03:32 PM
The reason I am always in support of a day 1 lynch is as follows:

You have a shot, a slim one, but still a shot of hitting scum on day 1, which is a huge boost. If you weight the cost benefit of hitting a VT vs scum, I think it is worth the risk.

Second, people will have to argue and discuss who to kill, with essentially no information, this provides a nice bit of information that can be used later in the game to support assertions or claims that develop.

Thirdly, and Brett kind of assumed I would go this way, if someone doesn't say a damn thing at all, either isn't playing, isn't aware of whats going on, or whatever, they are not bringing anything to the table anyways. They will not be a target for scum at night since, if they aren't talking who gives a shit about them. So they are essentially narrowing down the possible targets for the mafia by not saying anything, provided they are not mafia themselves. By eliminating inactives, who are likely to be looked at suspiciously as Nem has already made clear, the cop/investigator may well waste time investigating them just to see whats up.

Those are the benefits I see with doing a Day 1 lynch. No guarantees I know, but neither is there a guarantee that Night 1 brings anything to the table either. I know this may not convince some people, but thats my 2 cents. I feel in the long term, it has the potential to be more beneficial than a non-lynch.

Day 1 Lynch gives us a look at player actions and claims. It's not about killing someone, it's about watching what people do, and what they say about it.

I will also ask what plan anyone who wants to NL has if they hit our cop.

Related, a discussion on the topic: Here (http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21947&sid=8241d0d1a60945fcce446366a844a04d)

Well, the first question becomes, does anyone want to volunteer any information?

Given we have an unknown number of VTs, do we want those players to claim so we don't waste docs on them, or have them stay undercover so the enemy has a harder time shanking the power roles? Not claiming has the problem of letting people hide under the guise of VT when they don't want to claim later, but I think hiding our resources is a good plan.

If we suppose one of the "good" inmates has a "gun/shank", do we want them to use it? If it's one use, I'd say no, but if it's multiple use, it can be used in lieu of a D1 lynch, granted relying on the paranoia of one man. Though we might have a shank anyway if we have a SK.

Anyone want to venture and guesses as to the flavour, such as what the sides are like, or the setup? How many VT and mafia do we think we have? With 14 players, something around 9-5, 9-4-1, 8-4-2. Probably 3 to 5 VT. Mafia probably have 1 or 2 powers. Or do we want to just not make any assumptions? Do we think we have more than 2 sides? I'd assume not, but given how much loyalties shift, could be 2 mafia with 2 or 3 each. On the game flavour, I'm only about half way through the first season, and the only "true" enemies I can see are prison guard McDick and the government people. Everyone else are "good", begrudging allies, or wildcards.

Generally, VT's are the ones who do most discussion and are not afraid to attract attention so the power roles could stay hidden. I'm not really super familiar with the theme (never watched Prison break), but here are my main thoughts:

1) Inmates will be the good guys from what I gather and the guards will be the "baddies" / "mafia"
2) I'd say most likely setup is 10-4 or 9-4-1 with 10-3-2 and 9-3-3 being less likely setups. Fake claims are quite likely as generally those tend to be true in the thematic games, but since this is IBIS, it's only an assumption.
3) Good guys (who should be in the game - correct me if I'm wrong): Michael Scofield / Lincoln Burrows / Veronica Donovan / Lincoln "L. J." Burrows Jr. / Fernando Sucre /Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell / Benjamin Miles "C-Note" Franklin (?) / Brad Bellick (?)
4) Questionable: Alexander Mahone (?) - seems leaning towards town, but not completely clear.
5) Baddies: John Abruzzi / Roy Geary /etc.
6) Most likely there's a few power roles (doctor/vig/cop/roleblocker + VT's) against a GF + 2 goons?


Well, first, I let out the portion of that post mentioning I am generally against D1 no lynch. As someone once put it, "Lynching can kill scum, scum kills can't". Voting also leads to more information, ect. But given we already have 2 people suggesting no lynch, and not even 1 joke vote, I was looking for a way to still try to get a scum kill. I also DO trust most people here's judgement solo, more than I trust mobs. Also, if we come out collectively and say "don't shoot" rather than leaving it in the air, we make claiming "vig" harder.

Err.. It really depends. In generally, going straight for no lynch is scummy and pressuring people in day 1 often leads to A LOT of information gains later, so I'd generally say voting and attempting to lynch is not a bad thing - after that, it is all situational.


bitch we're all in prison, we're all criminals. shiiiit.

as for lynching or no, it's a crapshoot if we do it. no info to go on. all that's gonna happen is one person gets lynched and whether they're town or not, they're not gonna be happy and may not want to play again. as a courtesy to everyone involved, i say no lynch. in fact, i like that argument a lot.

Vote: no lynch

FoS Brett - however, due to you still being relatively new I'll attribute this to lack of general knowledge than anything else. Going straight to night 1 leaves us with ZERO information which is less than optimal.


So are there any lynch votes yet? I'm currently suspicious of Brett.

though Nem is annoying me.

Any... Specific reasons? You can't just say you're suspicious of someone without stating why... Why are they scummy in your opinion?


We need to get everyone talking before we vote no lynch.

Pretty much this. FoS everyone voting no lynch already.

Related, a discussion on the topic: Here (http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21947&sid=8241d0d1a60945fcce446366a844a04d)

Exactly this. But good Sir, correct me if I'm wrong, but you were suggesting a no lynch... :^)

- - - Updated - - -

Or nevermind, I re-read everything. 100% what BM said - going no lynch is generally a terrible idea early in the game. At day you're back at the starting point UNLESS someone claims and generally you don't want your power roles to claim early. My bad, misread a bit.

After reading all the post and the scene Cyber posted I'm confused. With me being a new player and not really a prison break follower, I could use some information about what Prison break is about. If I had some more information about the series, I might be able to figure out sooner how this exactly works and might get more 'newbies' like me posting.

Would appreciate it if you old skool people could hrlp me out a bit.

The theme isnt really relevant, its about deductive reasoning and word play. I have not heard of prison break until this thread but that dosnt mean i cant be an integral part of the mafia game.

I think it is relevant, assuming the roles are based on a tv show. People who do know it, know what kinda roles there might be in the game and can associate that with theme. But its cool, I will figure it out eventually

To hit our cop, something had to happen. We could have had a quick hammer, and we go after the ones who hammered. We had 2 cop claims, which means either this is a dangerous setup, or we have a good target D2. If our cop actively doesn't claim anything at around 6 votes, something's up with the player. If our cop claims VT and gets lynched randomly, then yes, we have an issue.

There's some plans.

eh' its not always that clear cut, bad guys will be bad guys and good guys will be good guys, but when powers are assigned to roles, sometimes its more of a matter of needing someone to have that role than it is that character personifying the role. For instance, during the pokemon version, Pickachu was a good guy, as would be expected, but he was also the cop, which does not rely on any of pickachu's investigative abilites on the show, but rather was the need to have a cop. I would expect that the cop this time around, will not actually be a cop but a prisoner, and most likely the main character on the show.

Lily, the game would be set up first then the roles picked to match. While knowing the roles could give you an indication of who is what, it's most likely still a basic set up.

Any... Specific reasons? You can't just say you're suspicious of someone without stating why... Why are they scummy in your opinion?


Brett is acting different than he did in previous games.

and fuck you, you can totally say you're suspicious without any real reason, lol. That's basically what this stupid D1 lynch is. picking someone for fuck all of a reason and saying "i think this guy is evil". You have zero proof to back up any lynch choice. I read the topic Blackmage posted, and i can see why people agree with its reasoning. that being said, its still wrong. A D1 lynch is 100% blind.

I respectfully disagree. It is not going to be anything concrete, but most of the mafia is exactly that. You use the language, wording and behaviour and you analyze it. Who has been scummarying through the game, who have posted but NOT contributed, who were super trigger happy or jumping on every single band wagon... Etc, etc. While the 1st lynch is not based on solid evidence, it's most definitely NOT blind. Unless... You're playing it wrong.

The lynch isn't the objective. Like you said, it's blind. It's not 100% blind though. The point of D1 lynch isn't the lynch itself. The lynch is a means to an end. The threat leads to claims. The claims lead to info. Since a threat is pointless if you don't back it up, you need to lynch someone does get dead in the end.

Looking at Tom's characters list I have these coments: If Bellick is town, I question Cyber :P Bellick was not a good man. T-Bag and Abruzzi could be either side, depending on what you think. Veronica Donovan could be a cop/detective, but she's not in the jail. Pope could be an alternative "cop" that actually spends most of his time in Fox River. Alexander Mahone was season 2 on, so no idea.

I'm guess he's expecting us to do things ourselves. A deadline is only needed if we don't do anything, and forcing a deadline mostly helps the scum. Given we've begun to see vote changes, and have our first player vote, I assume it'll come to a head soon enough.

But, I agree with pressuring Irish for activity. If you haven't said anything by morning for me, which is more than 2 days after we began, I'll throw my vote on the heap if it's still needed for pressure.

Wolf, have anything of use to say either? Any vote or general thoughts on NL?

Similarly, lily, what are your thoughts on the vote? You said you were keeping your vote, but have you made any decision?

THURSDAY the 22nd, at midnight eastern, DAY 1 will end.
This effectively gives you guys 48 hours after an already extended period.

Just to make sure people don't intentionally play the system for an automatic no lynch at day's end, what will happen is that there will be a randomized 50/50 chance that i either no lynch anyone OR that i lynch a random player.

So for those who want to play the odds, by all means test my patience:P but for those trying to get conversations undergo, i think this is MORE than ample time since sunday morning...

It's too late for that. There was a pregame that everyone had an opportunity to ask questions and he was silent. Now any answers he is given will be biased by the role of those giving it.

It *IS* IBIS, so not really sure what you expected. Furthermore, most people are new and basically are unwilling to risk whatever they have, so they play super safe instead of saying something. As soon some of the actives will be killed of during the night the game will die down even more probably. I'm already unpleasantly surprised how this is progressing where people almost mindlessly hammered without even HEARING a claim. What's even funnier just how quick that bandwagon unfolded.

At this point, I'm actually probably even more interested in people who quickly bandwagoned without providing any good reasoning and just piled on the votes without seemingly following the game.

CYBER
05-20-2014, 01:16 PM
OK. I have been asked about the metagaming in this thread based on the possibility of mods making errors.
i.e "should we question mod errors? or is there possibility of hidden triggers and agendas that arent visible for the players (like double voters, no voters, and other bastard roles).


The only thing i can say about this is that i promised a fairly simple game.
And this game is supposed to be more of an "educational" type.


SOOOO,
if a "mistake" like this ever happens, like i posted before, you DO reserve the right to say "Cyber i think u fucked up".

Then i will come, take a look, and if there's a mistake i will fix, and if there isn't a mistake, i will say that there isn't a mistake.
and if there's something i do not want to disclose, i will simply say " no everything is fine, carry on".

So please, ask away. I'm your friendly neighbourhood mod trying to keep things simple, but with crooked eyes apparently.

Blackmage

Even without what cyber mentioned, we learned something about the setup with the voting. We knew 7 non-double voters, 4 players who don't hammer if they don't have a vote, and 3 players who aren't forced to hammer and irish isn't a self hammer. The mod error, as Cyber mentioned, actually told us that we most likely had NO 0-voters or double voters. For anyone asking why day 1 lynch can tell you, well, there you go.

Then, we can look at the voting of people in general. What made a dangerous play by voting the 7th vote. I made a dangerous play letting it get to 7 before unvoting. Mikey didn't force the lynch even though he was on.

I didn't see it as too risky, I knew we would be at 7, and Cyber has said repeatedly, that this is a basic setup for beginners, there was no chance there was a quick hammer or self hammer in play, especially a self hammer on a new player like that.(Also the reason there is no fucking way he can't say anything due to his role, plus he had the chance to say something and he just confirmed twice) If there was, well then we would know Cyber would have been lying this whole time and we do have a role maddness thing going on. Also, a quick hammer is good to know about as soon as possible so that mistakes don't happen later in the game, especially if it gets to a point where the scum have comparable numbers to the town.

Also, if someone popped in to be the hammer vote real quick, especially someone who hasn't said much, that would be a pretty good indicator right there that they were scum. Any unvotes would also tell me if people were commited to killing irish, or just working to get a claim or info.

In the end though, I am willing to gamble with the life of the guy who has brought nothing to the table so far if it means it can help gather information.

I'm off to work, check back in tonight.

Wolf, have anything of use to say either? Any vote or general thoughts on NL?

Just having a chance to read the thread after getting home from school. Last final done; summer class starting next week. Anywho ; no rush with lynching irishrush, but at the same time its a group census russian roulette, where we just pick somebody out who either isn't contributing enough, contributes oddly, don't want him here, has a funny name, etc.

Stupid reasons for a day 1 lynch, but I imagine they become more and more reasonable as the Day 1 Lynchings continue. Also off a group lynching like we're seeing; even though we're using reasonable "Let's get rid of this guy" outcome, can always take a gander at who voted as well as the ones sitting back watching the lynching taking place.

Irishrushian still has 48hrs to speak up. In the mean time, I'm fine with sitting back until tomorrow evening the latest. My prediction at the moment is that we get Day 1 over with by Wednesday night, night actions go in and we see the scene Thursday Afternoon - Evening depending on how fast the actions get in and how fast Cyber writes his story.

I too feel a lynch on day 1 is not necessary. Under what presumption are we lynching Irish? Because of his inactivity, solely off his inactivity? Let's keep in mind if he is a college student, it is final/paper due week for many college students so inactivity may be reasonable. Let's just wait till day 2, as we could by lynching off a key role player.

We're lynching him because by talking you set tenancies. With tenancies you can group people. It's not based solely off his inactivity but also his retardation. He doesn't know how forums work, he's confirmed twice and hasn't said he has finals, nor do I believe that he would be able to make it to post-secondary anyways. He also doesn't have a key role.

Like, as an aside, there isn't much fun to having someone like that in the game at all. Might as well play with fucking bots. Even if Cyber foolishly gave him an important roll he wont know how to use it properly.

At this point I'd be ok with him being replaced by someone with a pulse.

DJ_MikeyRevile

here is my philosophy on why we should not policy lynch irish along with why nems behavior is suspicious.

1st. Chances are, irish is VT which would explain his lack of involvement thus far and ability to stay interested in any way shape or form. If we policy lynch someone who shows clear signs of being no more threatning to the mafia then a pile of dirt, we lose a player who helps even out the odds later in game. id much rather be 3 vs 2 mafia with 1 of the 3 unmotivated and no threat then 3 vs 2 with everyone at each others necks.

2nd. Nem was very quick to start this policy lynch bandwagon. He keeps pushing it without giving any legitimate explanation beyond "ZM fag, confirmed twice, blah blah"

well, im off to bed, if irish hasnt added anything insightful by the time i wake, ill have to forfeit this day and jump ship.

you "vote: nameOfPerson" and "unvote" by writing them with this font and color to make it easier for me to scroll through.

This game is specifically designed to enforce communication among players to optimize the gameplay. So make sure you open up all sorts of conversations because boosting forum activity is the sole reason for this game :)

Remember, you cannot talk to anyone about this game outside of this thread, that includes possible partners and trying to solicitate information from the mod. I will reserve the right to ignore your communications to me if need be. No editing allowed.

Because its easy to manipulate people into commiting to a policy lynch and as mafia, you would not want to waste a night kill on someone who is not an immediate threat. In other words, help the townies help the mafia.

In my opinion having someone lynched as mafia is a day kill. As in you'd want to use it on someone relevant. Someone who doesn't talk and is too stupid to follow along isn't relevant.

sure. Mikey is currently in his mid-game form of talking himself into a corner. Soon he will be there and start lashing out accusations at every person who posts, finally coming to the conclusion that it is indeed a bastard set up of 13 mafia and 1 mikey King of the World. Once he finishes accusing everyone he will start over, in case anyone missed his previous walls of text (spoiler: no one read them in the first place) and will being voting and un-voting en masse since the world is against him.

Oh, yeah, the insulin shot comment was probably just something pulled from the show. Early on, Micheal went to the doc's to get insulin for a faked case of diabutus or something so he could case the med lab. Med lab being the last place they needed to go to escape.

Irish, in order to not get lynched you need to post an alternative. Explain why we shouldn't vote for you, or who we SHOULD vote for. Also, it can help to actually vote for someone else. if you feel your accusations have merit. Or if you truly believe we shouldn't D1 Lynch, vote no lynch. The pressure is on you to tell us why we shouldn't. Realize 8 of us have voted for you off and on, including one who was dead set on NOT have a lynch at first.
