Game theory. When you have dynamic decision-making, in which the outcome of my decisions depends upon the decisions you take, the correct way to approach the problem is to determine your optimal course of action first, and once I know what you're going to do and therefore the payoff of each of my own choices, only then do I start looking at what is the optimal course of action for myself.

Sorry for the completely off-topic post, but I actually love game theory. Prisoner's dilemma and all that shiz- the very same reasoning that brought me to the conclusion, many pages ago, that mafia will mostly be lurking, so we should focus less on the really active players and more on those who are making shitty, short and content-free posts, and also on those who aren't posting at all.

that being said, please vote for me.
i promise you guys that i will try to network for the town. if you are a town member looking for someone to trust, i promise you that you can trust me. if you pm me that you're town i have noone else to tell... because being a poor green you have noone to trust. i know this. i would originally think that being elected would protect me personally, but in fact it would actually put a huge target on my green head. i don't mind this. i am willing to be a martyr for you all for us to actually win this game. we have to be very careful with who our medics protect, and when, and if you look back on past games sometimes medics will protect the same person when it is not needed or not advisable. it would also be nice if we could coordinate who to bomb and when... we need to get a good foundation
!!!!!
Really, guys!
I love you all, I love Team Liquid, and I love this mafia game.
Let's, as a town, share the love and eliminate these red threats.
Come, chezinu, come ver, come ace, come out from hiding citi.zen
let's win.
whoever is green... really.
i don't want this to be another win for these mafias...
if we lose, let it be by eliminating TOO MANY OF THEM rather than NOT ENOUGH.
