Fulgrim, Abenson, the current most inactive player.Many suggestions have been put out but people seem to be intentionally not talking about it.
I think we should try Ace's plan, except instead of having it completely random, why not start off with someone who is actually a little bit suspicious?

Generally you need to actually be pointing out something that is true, and since I've been posting real content and you decided to take an upswing in activity by plopping out empty posts after someone threatened to kill inactives I've got a feeling that I'm still a shining white knight compared to you. Why would 1) everyone make a list 2) pm it to 2 people Is there a purpose there? Is there some importance to it? I mean I understand that we're going to try to randomize the list, but I really don't see why we'd do so in a way that lets people severely game the system and avoid detection. Additionally; Plans that require EVERYONE to do something (rather than not do something) never work. Not once. The only exception is a 100% confirmed townsperson asking for roleclaims. You could call it an upswing in participation, it was a saturday night I was out. I like posting my thoughts whether you think them trash or not. Ok lets talk about the town's plan for a minute. We wanted a list of people that we could use to decide the order for who is doing the shooting each day. Ace came up with a list of people and declared Malongo to be the first target. So the issue with his list is that we don't know whether Ace is mafia or not, which could be solved by either A) Killing him, B) Rolechecking him, or C) Using a different list! I was trying to expand on citi.zen's idea that everyone could make a random list and pm it to two designated people. That way we could solve the problem without wasting a DT check (which Ace could be a CIA agent), or killing Ace. It makes the most sense to ME at least. I agree with your last point at least, that getting a large amount of people to do something is difficult, but chances are the mafia would kill one of the people who are being active, and who would pm their list to these people. Or we could flip the list and there's zero problems. If you think we're going to get 26 people throwing out 52 pms, you're pretty out of your mind. mafia killing someone who didn't bother to make a list essentially lets them have 2 people engineer a list. Additionally, someone having pmed the other dead target (kp is at least 2, remember? ) gives someone the ability to forge the list if he waits and no one speaks up.
Now do you see the 'gaming the system' part?

Alright fine. I guess it would be too hard to organize and execute, fair enough. Especially if the mafia killed the two people we choose to organize the lists. So I guess we just start having people shoot from one end of Ace's list and rolecheck down the other.

PMs don't work well without confirmed greens, that idea was bad and is a distraction.
ACE: lots of us like your plan, but feel uncomfortable with a single player proposing the list and controlling the entire flow of the game.
On record: Ace, are you comfortable inverting the list and moving on? If it is randomly generated, the reversed one will be as well. If not, well, you can figure out the rest.
|
I'm fine with inverting the list. I also think 789's idea was even better. After a round of Shots/checks if we are good to go, then the person who shot (in this case it would be Abenson) gets to randomize the next list. Needless to say if Abenson starts acting up, I'll take the shot on him, and randomize the next list. DT just checks off the next person.

Shockey play the game in the thread. Don't private message me asking me nonsensical questions that won't get you anywhere.

Not even gonna try to defend me, just want to point before you hit think it twice because theres one party that benefits and its not the town /lawl i should even get a medic tonight/. So far the best thing to do is to start hitting nonposters. This has happened a billion times, mafia doesnt like to post at all. Foolishness, l10f, Shockeyy. Zero posts. Im just gonna put fishball there because of his "im lazy" presentation. Im thinking 2/4 is mafiya. + Show Spoiler +On March 07 2010 13:27 Fishball wrote: Just read my PM and noticed the game has started, but I have no idea wtf is going on. Execute what?

if you haven't submitted ur night actions you have 4 hours before i get impatient

If aces plan is implemented I will not be following it and if this results in my death then meh, the life expectancy of Russians is probably quite low anyway.
no problem bucko.
After Abenson's situation is cleared, I think Xelin should be next to be shot barring any other obvious scum.

We start with Ace's inverted list which will have Abenson as the first to execute. I think you can all agree with me (no offense abenson) that it is unlikely abenson was chosen as the CIA agent. If he can shoot he is more than likely green. Then abenson could use the same method Ace did to create a list. This would give us a list that we will not have to worry about bias.
Your idea is good but your thought process is ridiculous. Judging by the length of the night the reds have not yet sent in their night actions to Caller. Therefore the CIA agent is yet to be chosen. Furthermore nothing stops the reds electing abenson as the cia (if he is one of them) and then simply telling him what to write/writing for him.
So basically here's how I would like our strategy. 1) We go with ace's initial idea of a random list 2) We go with 789's idea of letting the confirmed green shooter generate a new list every day 3) We DO NOT decide on how to rearrange the original random list by ace until it is Day 2.
Also just for the record the chance that Xelin is pro town in all 3 games (BC's, Incog's, Caller's [assuming 6 reds]) is 11%.
|
I should probably specify ahead of time that the CIA Agent was assigned
it doesn't make sense that a bunch of ukrainians would elect somebody to become a cia agent
|
I still think that the list we have shouldn't be completely random, doesn't it make sense to put suspicious-er people at the top of the list? (ie, abenson/fulgrim/xelin/whoever else)
|
Iaaan not really. It's just as powerful to confirm townies as it is Mafia.
By having a randomized list of who's up next to prove their town AND a separate list of scummy looking players we are kind of going down 2 lists at once.
Secondly with a randomized list scum can't get the chance to claim bs their fake claims. They never know when it's going to come.
That said Abenson stop bullshitting and fucking post. Night is going to pass very soon and as soon as day time comes you're on the spot.

I dont care about Xelin but i have been town 10 straight times counting this one. I got 1 veteran and 9 greens. Im like the definition of green.

Dozko that is faulty logic, here is the link so you may correct this most silly of assumptions.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambler's_fallacy
techinally actually it isn't but the insinuation is that my likelihood of being Mafia in this game is somehow greater than other peoples and in that sense it is faulty
|
Okay, just reread all the posts since I logged off early this morning and my mind is feeling way clearer. Didn't realize that the CIA had the GF power; my bad for lacking reading comprehension at the time.
Dozko I have no idea where you got those numbers for XeliN and I don't think they're too helpful anyway.
I support the Ace/789 plan; still don't think Malongo is really worth a shot though. If Abenson doesn't post is he going to get modkilled?

There are no modkills iirc.

No technically I am correct. The same way the probability of getting 3 heads IN A ROW is 1/8

you have misinterpreted my post, however its not really relevant so cool story bro.
