Soo I guess we don't know what roles are out there. Super mysterious. Anyone have any ideas for how to proceed? Anyone play in a game like this before?

No PM's gets rid of a few things I think of. Can someone link me to a good example of a No PM game?

But I think we should proceed with lynching the inactives Day 1. It puts pressure on the mafia and the town gets rid of someone that might just be playing lurker.

With the penalties, everyone's abilities are dimminished, so I'm guessing we can't rely on circles and stuff (then again, that thought was kind of dead by the time PM were gone)

I can't think of any plans that work. Is there a good game that I can read that's similar?

im confused as to what a safe penalty claim is even supposed to be. A safe penalty almost sounds like an oxymoron to me

but i guess we dont get alot of info, this is the first like uh not standard game ive played since starting here so i hope it shall be fun and this is me saying hi

Maybe a safe penalty claim would be like "You are bulletproof, but only if sometime in your post you say the word 'penalty' " Something that can't really be checked

Scamp, if your wondering why I'm noobish, look over my post history to see how many game I've played.

As for BM. I'm wondering, if we lynch someone, would we see their role PM? Or just if someone dies would we see their role PM?

Secondly, why are we assuming BM is a silent oracle? He could be a silent assassin.

Hey Bill Murray. I think your role might be that you get a list of the mafia, or at least a partial list of the mafia, but you aren't allowed to talk. You are only allowed to make votes. If this is true, change your vote to scamp again and then to a mafia member that is not ace (if you have more than him) and then back to ace. Or just from scamp to ace if you only know Ace.
Just ignore this if it isn't true.

Other Issues
-If BM actually has a weird post restriction stuff. Well after he's lynched we'll find out his role. That would be pretty helpful

Why BM would do this, assuming he's mafia:
Immediately, town got in a huge disarray. A split was made. BM was counting on this working so that Ace would die the first day. We then see that Ace is clean, and day 2 we would lynch BM and his best supporter, who would happen to be green. Bill's death buys 2 days and 2 innocents.
However, looks like he made a small mistake :D

As for lynching Pyrr. I would advise AGAINST lynching Pyrr now. The logic works like this
Premise 1) If Bill Murry is Mafia, Pyrr is mafia
Premise 2) Bill Murry is Mafia
Therefore Pyrr is mafia.

However, we should first confirm premise #2. We do that by lynching BM. We're going to lynch BM anyways, so why not now? Lynching Pyrr first could lead to a dead townie. And Pyrr being green does not tell us anything about BM

Oops I can't read either, there isn't any double lynch. In instead of 2 days, Bill's death buys 3 days. As day 3 we lynch his 'right hand man'.

Assuming no vigis act, that would leave the town with
4 townies vrs. 2 mafia at the start of day 4.

I don't understand, what would mafia count becoming 4 mean? they have more KP? You become mafia? where's the 4th mafia?

The count would matter for Lynch or Lose situations. The mafia automatically wins if they outnumber the town.

why is the logic that way? why cant it be the other way around, i was going to go into some big thing of explaining propositional calculus to you and other people but im sure that would just confuse people more.

infact why does it have to go either way at all for sure. Surely there can be reasons for them both being mafia, or one and not the other...or even oddly enough neither i suppose

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirming_the_consequent Go brush up on your Propositional Calculus.

And Ace's post seems like complete BS.
BM does a vote post. We all go wtf?
Pyrr was the first one to think that BM might have some post restriction thingy, and so he tests it out. That's being smart. Not manipulative.

I am against penalty posting.

There are blue roles out there. Maybe a medic that can only work every other day or something. The moment the medic reveals, the medic has until daybreak till she* dies.
*Just played BW, medics are shes.

So blue roles wouldn't penalty post. But the people with anti-town/quirky stuff will penalty post. Mafia can narrow down their hit list.

Yes really. Remember Bill Murray voted for me without any explanation, and then Pyrr came up with the idea that Bill Murray's penalty might be he can get results of scum without talking about it.

Then he asked Bill Murray twice to prove it through vote switches and then switching back on to me. Bill Murray did it and hence we had Bill Murray's penalty.

Did I misread some posts or get the order of events wrong?

You're misplacing cause and effect.

Bill Murry votes for you. This causes Pyrr to joke, and then suspect a voting penalty.
Put yourself in Pyrr's shoes.

Pyrr, who is playing penalty mafia, gets an idea it's a penalty. Perfectly reasonable. Because really, why would BM do that?
I haven't played with BM much, but from what I've read, BM doesn't seem like pop in, vote, afk. Kind of person

Pyrr tries to confirm, and BM obliges him. This does not show that Pyrr is mafia. It shows that Pyrr is playing logically

I don't agree - I have no idea what to expect in other penalties and I don't see how claiming them will make certain people stand out. It might help us plan some strategies but it might help the mafia, too. What if someone's penalty is that they can't do anything till night 4? Then the mafia knows to avoid that person until night 3 and kill them then. What if the penalties for townies look a lot different from the penalties for blues? That could bite us in the ass.


If someone's penalty is they can't do anything until night 4 thats great. Because then we can remove them from any actions that happen at night, and if they still live on Night 4 we ask them to prove their action. Obviously if you can't act until Night 4 which would be ridiculous in any mafia game you've gotta have something damn near game breaking. So if the scum want to let that person until night 3 that's cool with me because before that said person better be going all out doing some intelligent scum hunting. But even all of this is moot because I did say don't make it too obvious what your role could be. On death once your role is revealed we can piece everything together. It doesn't even matter if Vanilla penalties look different than blue penalties - we just need a list of penalties period to even move forward.

So what if it helps the mafia? Would you rather the town not have any direction on where to go and just stumble around mindlessly? It's like complaining that Terran's are making infantry knowing that Zerg has lurkers. Execution of the plan is just as important as the plan itself. If you don't agree come up with a better idea because I'm all ears.

@divinek: now you're starting to get it ^_^

We KNOW for a fact that townies have restrictions and scum don't. They only have fake claims the host gave them. So if we are aware of our own penalties and KNOW that we have to behave a certain way then we can't do things that go against our PM where as scum can because theirs are fake. They can't fake their actions because once we see what most people's penalties look like and people start dying the picture becomes very clear.

Why are we so sure penalties are not linked to roles?

From what I've seen, and knowing my penalty, people with a blue role have penalties pertaining to that role (ex: can't use power Y unless X happens). Greens can't have that type of penalty. Telling everyone "I can't use my power unless X" means you are blue = pleasant sniping reds.

So I'd advise you to reconsider, unless you think some sort of mass role-claim is a good play. In some set-ups that is the case, in this one I personally haven't come to that conclusion.

I'll admit that, as usual, I don't pay close attention on weekends, am I missing something?


no need for role claims yet, just penalties. Like I said I gave you all my penalty and if you all think it's that simple then tell me what my role is ^_^

Look at bumatlarge's penalty claim: no one would know he was a tree stump (role) based on the fact that acting increases mafia population by 1 (penalty). The idea that penalties implies roles is false based on bumatlarge's post and the fact that my penalty also does not imply my role.

That's just it: he has to use his "ability" = he has an "ability". So he's some sort of blue that just got outed.


Being BLUE doesn't matter. You are looking at it wrong. Everyone has a role. EVERYONE. Ignore anything about blue roles for now. We only care about PENALTIES. If bumatlarge didn't tell you he was a tree stump you would never know. zeks just told us his penalty, do you know his role? I told you my penalty, do you know my role? See where I'm going now.

also *yawn* at Pyrr. I didn't out any blues but nice job at trying to spread some panic. I hope the Vigilante or whatever killing role we have shoots you asap.

Are you claiming there are no vanilla townies?


Not at all. Reading the OP:

If you are town you have a penalty. Doesn't matter if you are blue or green. Scum have fake penalties.

Bill Murray may be an idiot, but I'm pretty certain you're scum.

If someone's penalty is they can't do anything until night 4 thats great. Because then we can remove them from any actions that happen at night, and if they still live on Night 4 we ask them to prove their action. Obviously if you can't act until Night 4 which would be ridiculous in any mafia game you've gotta have something damn near game breaking. So if the scum want to let that person until night 3 that's cool with me because before that said person better be going all out doing some intelligent scum hunting. But even all of this is moot because I did say don't make it too obvious what your role could be. On death once your role is revealed we can piece everything together. It doesn't even matter if Vanilla penalties look different than blue penalties - we just need a list of penalties period to even move forward.

So what if it helps the mafia? Would you rather the town not have any direction on where to go and just stumble around mindlessly? It's like complaining that Terran's are making infantry knowing that Zerg has lurkers. Execution of the plan is just as important as the plan itself. If you don't agree come up with a better idea because I'm all ears.

@divinek: now you're starting to get it ^_^

We KNOW for a fact that townies have restrictions and scum don't. They only have fake claims the host gave them. So if we are aware of our own penalties and KNOW that we have to behave a certain way then we can't do things that go against our PM where as scum can because theirs are fake. They can't fake their actions because once we see what most people's penalties look like and people start dying the picture becomes very clear.

Why are we so sure penalties are not linked to roles?

From what I've seen, and knowing my penalty, people with a blue role have penalties pertaining to that role (ex: can't use power Y unless X happens). Greens can't have that type of penalty. Telling everyone "I can't use my power unless X" means you are blue = pleasant sniping reds.

So I'd advise you to reconsider, unless you think some sort of mass role-claim is a good play. In some set-ups that is the case, in this one I personally haven't come to that conclusion.

I'll admit that, as usual, I don't pay close attention on weekends, am I missing something?


no need for role claims yet, just penalties. Like I said I gave you all my penalty and if you all think it's that simple then tell me what my role is ^_^

Look at bumatlarge's penalty claim: no one would know he was a tree stump (role) based on the fact that acting increases mafia population by 1 (penalty). The idea that penalties implies roles is false based on bumatlarge's post and the fact that my penalty also does not imply my role.

That's just it: he has to use his "ability" = he has an "ability". So he's some sort of blue that just got outed.


Being BLUE doesn't matter. You are looking at it wrong. Everyone has a role. EVERYONE. Ignore anything about blue roles for now. We only care about PENALTIES. If bumatlarge didn't tell you he was a tree stump you would never know. zeks just told us his penalty, do you know his role? I told you my penalty, do you know my role? See where I'm going now.

also *yawn* at Pyrr. I didn't out any blues but nice job at trying to spread some panic. I hope the Vigilante or whatever killing role we have shoots you asap.

Are you claiming there are no vanilla townies?


Not at all. Reading the OP:

This setup also has another twist in it; all Townies (not mafia) will have specific penalties that either diminish strength of one's ability or simply anti-town. No post restriction bs though.


If you are town you have a penalty. Doesn't matter if you are blue or green. Scum have fake penalties.

# vote Pyrr

Bill Murray may be an idiot, but I'm pretty certain you're scum.

STOP PICKING AND READING

Does bumatlarge's penalty DIMINISH his tree stump ability? It doesn't. It's simply ANTI-TOWN. Highlight the entire quote and READ.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Converse_accident
This is the mistake you are making. You can't take a few penalties and generalize them to all 13

Let's say there is a medic, her penalty is that she only works on even numbered days. Under rules this is possible.

The mafia won't know if the medic is a DT, or a Bus Driver, or a Vig, or a Medic. But all they will know is that they should kill the medic before night 2.

It sounds like your part of the mafia, trying to get a nice hit list.

wrong. You don't know it's a medic. You've only seen the penalty. How does telling the town you can act on certain nights imply you're a medic? Explain, especially since any sane person's first thought would be Vigilante.

Guys, focus on BM
I am guilty of this myself, letting my personal feelings get in the way. But we right now can't afford to start diverting votes from BM in order to start bashing Ace or Pyrr.
We've determined that BM is either A) Mafia, or B) a townie that just wants to make our lives difficult. Either way, this is Anti-Town.

As for Ace's plan

Pyrr could also be red.

Of course. So lets see what penalty claiming has done for the town
The Town knows that Pyrr is either Blue or Red.
(Assuming Pyrr isn't in the mafia)
The Mafia knows that Pyrr is Blue, because they have a PM of who is red. Target #1 on the hitlist

So all we're doing is giving the mafia more information

Okay scum, I'm doing this for the town

Ace: BS penalty cause he's scum
Bumatlarge: Tree stump
Zeks: Townie
Bill Murray: Townie or Red
Korynne: He thankfully made his penalty really general, and he hasn't posted much so I can't tell. I think green, but I haven't found his 'penalty claim' post yet.

Give me more penalties, I give you more answers

There you go scum.

Let's keep this straight, your plan Sucks. If I can figure roles out, a complete noob who hasn't survived the first night yet. The mafia can do it
All you say is "LOL People are dumb! They can't figure it out! lol"
Then the mafia can crack it.
To me it sounds like a mafia honeypot


I also don't care about Pyrr's claim because I think he's scummy. If Pyrr wants to save himself he can just role claim before the lynch if shit gets that bad. Otherwise my vote stays - he's made way too many mistakes on Day 1 to be playing this bad.

Let's talk about our feelings
I feel a bit queasy, cause I ate some fried stuff for dinner. I also feel a bit tired.
Talking about feeling is really fun :D!

Pyrr is offering himself as a sacrifice so we can take down BM. You didn't take it.

Also I did not chainsaw defend Bill Murray, get your terms straight if you want to be taken seriously and not looked at as scum.


Definition of Chainsaw defense. Scum defending their own by attacking someone else. I want to congratulate you scum. You pulled it off well. We know BM is scum, and you've successfully starved off his lynch in favor of Pyrr.

kkthxbai

LSB when are you actually going to contribute anything to the town instead of trying to attack me?


You want to know what I'm contributing to the town? I'm trying to take down a known scum. Bill Murry. Your kill our DT. Congratulations.

Let's say we have two people. Let's call them Bill Murry, and Ace.
Bill Murry is mafia, he gets attacked.

Ace is mafia, he starts attacking the DT. The town gets distracted and doesn't lynch BM and instead lynches the DT.

That is the chainsaw defence

Attention Town. Are you wondering how we got our DT lynched?

Look where our votes went. 3 votes went to BM, and Ace recieved 2 votes. If we all had focused on BM, he would be lynched.

Instead, we broke up our votes and we got screwed over.

Remember, there are 3 mafia. So all it takes is one of us to go after the wrong person, the three mafia members then jump on, bringing it to a total of 4 votes. Boom, Pyrr is dead

Why BM would do this, assuming he's mafia:
Immediately, town got in a huge disarray. A split was made. BM was counting on this working so that Ace would die the first day. We then see that Ace is clean, and day 2 we would lynch BM and his best supporter, who would happen to be green. Bill's death buys 2 days and 2 innocents.
However, looks like he made a small mistake :D



Oops I can't read either, there isn't any double lynch. In instead of 2 days, Bill's death buys 3 days. As day 3 we lynch his 'right hand man'.

Assuming no vigis act, that would leave the town with
4 townies vrs. 2 mafia at the start of day 4.

I have already answered these questions. What you are doing is asking me these things, trying to get me distracted.

I'm pretty sure you'll roleclaim mafia.

Say wut?

You sound like the People in battle.net forums. OMG this game is unbalanced QQ.




I will offer an alternate theory.

This game is balanced by
1) Reversal of expectations. Mafia will expect things, things won't turn out right.
2) Large amounts of blue roles. Given that lots of people haven't role claimed yet, and our first lynch hits a blue, it's pretty likely that a lot of people are blue.

What your theory sounds like is "Vigi! Please don't kill me tonight"

A bunch of BS that Ace made up.

He didn't make it up, he logically deduced, based on the few penalties people posted so far, and without knowledge of the blue roles included in the game. I mean... the town was at -3 versus the "baseline" - what else could be going on besides hidden abilities??

Theirs quite a few completely wrong assumptions.

Firstly, lets go over his logic again. EVERYONE in the town has a penalty. Not just the 4 people he used his 'data' from. So in reality, it should be far below -3.

Okay, so lets pretend the town is really behind and we all have hidden roles. That doesn't sound like too much of a jump.
So how in the world does Ace know he's going to die if he misses scum? Ace just pulls a role out of a hat and pretends it fits. Who knows, maybe if Ace visits a scum, the scum dies? That would be another penalty

Faults with Aces logic
1) Assumption of population data with the penalties. But in reality, Ace just has a Green/Red Biased sample. Ace can't just say the score is -3:0 when 9 people haven't responded.

2) Assumption that there is 'nothing going for the town' and nothing wrong with the mafia
Ace said
At this point since the Mafia have no penalties the game would be highly unbalanced in their favor.

This is flat out wrong. In this game, there is 1) Lots of blue roles. 2) Changing of expectations. Mafia will find that their ability is hindered.

Ace can't assume their is hidden roles just because he QQs over the apparent imbalance in this game

3) Random role out of the hat.
Ace can't just pick a random role out of the hat and pray it's the same one Hesmyrr chose. It's akain to me saying "I feel if I die on night one, I have a hidden role called 'death-curse' that kills all mafia members".

Okay. Now I will show you why Ace is not town

I'm trying to see your motives, first day you send the town into disarray and jump onto the bandwagon on our DT.

Okay, I don't get Chaoser's penalty connection with his adjective.

@Bill Murry. Okay, I can confirm that there are NO more DTs. I don't know if it will help you

Great. So a mass claim was designed to be detrimental, the DT and medic had pretty big penalties and, if we believe BM, the vigi can only hit people from the bandwagon. WTF is going on here... is there a DT+vigi role or some overpowered crap?

Wait... BM has 2 penalties?

o.o

BTW, we don't have a DT any more.

Good question about BM!

How do you know about DTs?

My role had changes when all the DTs in the town were killed

I did put some counter-measures to improve success of town when I changed the setup from 17 player to 13 player, yes, so at the START of the game I believe setup to be not too imbalanced. WIll reveal my thought process post-game.

tl;dr -> My setup was designed to make scum analysis solely based on via claims crap (special rule 3). I felt this interruption was necessary because it seemed my initial message wasn't clear enough for anyone.

[examples]
* LSB is mafia because "obvious" seem too obvious. (meaningless)
* LSB is town because his claim seems too risky. (meaningless)


A few things to note: Mafia has incentive to make claims, claims make them look good, and it's not like it's bad for them.

Mafia knows that mass claiming is detrimental (this is because Hesmyrr probably sent them a second part of a PM giving them fake claims).
This means that: Mafia knows they can get away with fake penalties

Lastly, Hesmyrr expects there to be some way we utilize our roles without mass claims.

Although I can see why youngminii can be a threat, a plan for today would be a vote for No Lynch, and have BM kill youngminii

hi just got back from work before the deadline :D crazy driving yay

also he's not going to get mod killed

Bill Murray (1)
youngminii

from the vote totals on page 1, and those are quite up to date.

And uh i like my vote where it is based on the few things that have been said. No lynch would be silly.

I'd give Youngminii the benefit of the doubt because he said he could not be as active.

The 'perfect plan' would be for BM to kill Youngminii tonight, but obviously it won't be happening.

By understand, you mean call out his BS, sure. I don't get why you are suddenly accepting Ace logic. Please explain.

It's strange how you suddenly think that Ace was acting in the interest of the town.
Is it just me, do did you say that Aces idea was correct?

I have a detailed post here http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=137823&currentpage=22#439 Before you go a step in the direction of Aces logic, please answer the faults

Dead men do tell lies

He says he would tell us the name of the person he visits, but he never mentions ANYONE's name after that post. The last person he was arguing with citizen, myself and LSB. He knew he was not getting lynched, I suppose, because he knew who he was protecting was red? The obvious person would be bill I guess, but we three were the last to argue with him. The last person he mentions who is alive by name is LSB. Why didnt he just come out and say he was visiting the person he thought? I dont know, but I can guarantee it was one of the 4 of us. He calls LSB scum at one point though after a long argument on who should be lynched -_-


Ace was unoriginal, I called him scum first, and he just stole it from me. I actually take pride in the fact that Ace called me scum. He called two people in the game scum. Me and Pyrr

Let's look at the world your proposing. Your proposing that Ace, protecting me, got killed because I was 'scum'. Big problem.
Okay, you missed some key points. Who did the Mafia kill? No one has claimed a vigi hit, and the doctor was protecting me.
As unbelievable as it seems, I believe the Mafia killed Ace, hoping to send the town into disarray.

I need everyone to read the whole thread over, There is alot of stuff I could have missed.

Now the interesting part, how do we know it was not me? Well lets find out, assuming those 3 vote me, and i vote one of them, it will be for the rest to decide. If I get the majority, I will treestump before the day is over. The population will then be 7-4. But we will lynch one of these 3, and sorry korynne, bill is the most obvious. The population will then be 7-3, exactly the same as if I was lynched anyway. Dont care about his little vig stories. So go ahead guys, convince them to lynch me.

I dare you.

I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Don't kill yourself, I know your town.

There are two ways to respond. Calmly and focusing and the argument presented. And Completely ignoring the argument and saying "I don't care about logic".

Well then you need to clarify on people, do you think citizen and BM are mafia? I only choose you because of Ace took his visit to the grave. There could still be a vet, but I guess they would have claimed immediately, unless there role prevents them. Jayme for instance seems a like that with Goth, but not sure why he would get hit. We only have a slice of the penalty pie.[/quote]

I was so sure BM was mafia Day one, but after Ace fliped blue, I realized I needed to take time to think things through.
As for Citi.zen, I did not notice what you pointed out.
I can understand citi.zen's point of view, at times during day 1 I was tempted to switch my vote to Ace. But at the same time, it does pose interesting questions.
From what I gathered, Citi.zen has been asking questions and probing everyone. I don't know what that means, maybe I should look at some of his old games

BM you have a lot of suspicion on you, and if two people don't die tonight, you're probably going to be lynched tomorrow.

Okay, as promised, I will start a series of long posts.

Where are we now.: Numbers
+ Show Spoiler +
Now:: 6v3
a) 6v2 if we correct lynch. Day 4 is 5v2
b) 5v3 if we Mislynch, Day 4 Lylo (4v3)

Tomorrow! (If we correct lynch): 5v2
a) 5v1 if we correct lynch. Day 5 is 4v1.
b) 4v2 if we mislynch. Day 5 Lylo

What this means:
  • We can't use a vig hit anymore.
  • If we mess up today or tomorrow we are in Lylo




Where are we now.: Votes
+ Show Spoiler +

Korynne (3)
citi.zen
Bill Murray
Divinek

Bill Murray (2)
bumatlarge
chaoser

Not voted yet (4): Korynne, Scamp, Darththienan, Yours Truely


What this means
  • Unless we dredge up a new target, either Korynne or Bill Murray is on the chopping block right now.
  • The vote is actually even, 3v3, because Korynne has not voted yet.



Things we found out night 2
+ Show Spoiler +
Bill Murray did not hit anyone. LSB, Bum, and Kor wanted BM to hit someone so he confirms himself.
Bill Murray doesn't want to send us into Lylo due to a mishit.
Understandable, but at the same time, we still are at a problem, we can't tell if BM is town or not, drawing up more confusion.

Zeks Died.
Zeks had a role that could either make Lylo come a day earlier or a day late.

Zeks was not very active

Zeks voted.
Day 1: BM. Wanted Penalty posting
Day 2: BM, then Abstain, then Chaoser

Case Study, Youngminii
Divinek makes a drunk post. Wants to kill Yongminii because he hasn't contributed anything to the town. Mentions one kindof scummy post
citi.zen pops up and agrees with Divinek
Bill Murray wants to kill someone
Scamp randomly appears and kills Youngminii

Scamp. Why did you want to kill Youngminii?
I think this is very suspicious.
BM wants to kill someone instead of nolynch, understandable.
Citi.zen, idk, it seems a bit too early to bandwagon, but if the mafia is Citi.zen/BM/Scamp it would be understandable as an easy diversion from BM. It seems like Citi.zen wants to defend BM.

Citi.zen has been defending BM a lot, now that I think about it


Another group I am very suspicious about. DDivinek/BM/Citi.zen
Look back at Day 1. Divinek/BM voted for Pyrr, and Citi.zen switched his vote off BIll Murray, killing Pyrr.
Divinek/BM/Citi.zen got Yongminii killed.
And now Divinek/BM/Citi.zen is trying to get Koryane killed, say wut?
They all have a 0/2 record for voting. I'd be wary about following them

You should know better than that.

I'm going to have to agree with Ace here, although I'm assuming he is a town aligned power role at this point. If he doesn't help out we can hold him accountable. I took his arguing with Pyrrhuloxia as Pyrry trying to get a scum driven wagon going on day 1. I wanted to see who would be apt to get rid of our best player (if ace is town, he is our best asset, regardless of his role)

This looks like every mafia game I've ever played with either Ace or Bill Murray in it.

Bill Murray has already screwed up the game and day one isn't even close to over.

Ace is also playing like his usual self which will result in either the town killing him early or the mafia will have to stack all their kills on him. (Not really a factor in this game since the KP is 1 but the point is there.) But even he is talking a lot about Bill Murray and that's what's at the forefront of all conversation right now.

So again, BM finds a way to screw up the game. And Ace will probably die one way or the other and get really pissed off about it.

Anyway...

Based on the way he's acting, I'm willing to believe Pyrr is town for now.

And other than people who haven't posted yet, I currently have my eye on LSB and bumatlarge. LSB is acting super noobish, while bumatlarge has unhelpfully offered himself as a vigilante target for no good reason, though he claims his power sucks.



I completely disagree with you. I have not taken Pyrrhuloxia as town whatsoever yet this game. I am getting a negative read from him, and if he flips red, I bet you will too.

I'd like to hear Ace's plan though.


Because I have learned ways to get information flowing which I can analyze and find scum, like Pyrrhuloxia and Scamp, who we as a town probably need to lynch.

I am more suspicious of Ace than BM at this point because Ace seems to be distracting town from BM rather than taking him head on. If BM is town-aligned and making these claims to troll or to get himself killed because he doesn't want to play anymore than I really don't know why he's playing and I don't really want him around the TL Mafia forum.


See how he "isn't worried about me", because he is wanting this wagon to go on Ace. I really wouldn't be surprised if Pyrrhuloxia was the Godfather.

The problem here is that Pyrr made up Bill Murray's penalty for him, and BM being who he is ran with it. So far Pyrr has twice tried to undermine me without really thinking straight. Thanks to Jayme though for actually making some sense.

P.S. - I don't care if I die, I don't get mad or take this game seriously.

Anyway here is the full plan now that we have more people here.

1.) Knowing what I know about my own role PM, I know my role is almost surely weak. As in if I ever acted out my role the town would lose because it not only stops me from role claiming but I'm the worst person in this game to get this kind of role. The only way this role would work is if I had a hidden condition the mod didn't give me. Being that I can't know that and even if I did it would still be somewhat underpowered...

2.) The town has to have a Vigilante or some kind of night killing role. It would be damn near impossible to confirm innocents if all the town players have penalties. However here's where our only known advantage at the moment comes in:


This setup also has another twist in it; all Townies (not mafia) will have specific penalties that either diminish strength of one's ability or simply anti-town. No post restriction bs though.


This tells us 2 things:

The town roles have penalties and the scum don't. Even with a safe fake claims from the mod we know this to be true and I'll get back to this soon. Secondly we know Bill Murray is bullshitting and this makes me even more suspicious of Pyrr. Bill Murray can't have a post restriction because the op says there aren't any!. So why are people seriously pointing fingers at me for nonsense when the "proof" Bill Murray is offering is banned by the very OP of the game? Good question if I do say so myself.

Back to the penalty claims. If any townies have penalties then you'll know based on your OWN role PM which penalties should make sense when we all claim them. We should all reveal our penalties in a way that doesn't make it blatantly obvious what our roles are since even Vanilla Townies have penalties. For example this is my penalty in a nutshell:

Anything I do must be telegraphed to the rest of the player base if it is a valid action.

If you're town-aligned and you have a similar penalty you should be able to understand what that means. If you don't as more people claim their penalties we'll start to make sense of this. The idea here is that penalties that the town have should make sense in the game because we know our roles are weakened. With this in mind once everyone penalty claims before anyone else dies then we have all 13 players information. Once someone dies and their roles is revealed we scratch their penalties out we can start making sense of what other penalties would be in the game that could possibly make it balanced.

Oh before I forget so you guys don't try and kill me off of some bullshit.

## vote Pyrr



You really are a good player, and you know it. I'm jealous. At least we have suspicions of the same person.

I will if more then 5 people ask me too. If it wasnt for the Ace/BM thing, I would for sure.

You already told the mafia to force you to do it so...
You should have just stayed low if you were worrieda bout the mafia forcing you to use your action. That said, I doubt there's a mafia role to force someone to use their action.

A role that limits someone's speaking seems pretty guaranteed, though. I think one of the examples Hesmyrr gave was a shy townie that had some posting restrictions. That would be a really lame/boring role to have so I could see Hesmyrr balancing that by giving some way for the silent person to know red roles - I could see Hesmyrr assuming that we wouldn't immediately jump to the hypothesis I had on BM's role.

It could be that BM is following an example claim given to the mafia by Hesmyrr, or he just thought he would fake being unable to speak to lay low as red, and BM just used my question to him as an excuse to try to kill Ace. If we were to kill Ace and he flips non-red, though, we'd go after BM and I don't think that's a good trade for mafia.


Why are you thinking like mafia at all? This feels like a scum slip to me. I feel like your play this game fits with your scum meta, especially with the way you jumped on the first opportunity presented to you for a wagon.

No, I was just jumping at the opportunity to piss Ace off day 1. Whenever people started talking about "play to win", I realized that I was betraying the town by not scumhunting. I hadn't originally intended to use my ploy for information, but since it DID get a lot of information, I'm going to use it.

I'm totally down with the Bill Murray bandwagon right now as other than the inactive (who may have a legitimate excuse) he looks like the best play. The only thing that I'm concerned about it is that there seems to be no consideration as to what to do if BM flips green or blue. It doesn't clear Pyrr and puts more pressure on Ace, who at this point is looking like our strongest player.

It doesn't really put more pressure on Ace because it just means BM was fucking around. Or that Hesmyrr forgot some of his rules or we are misinterpreting them (doubt it). It doesn't clear me but I think it undermines the reasons people are currently voting for me, which based on me working in concert with BM.


Don't try to blame me for your scumminess showing when you were arguing with Ace. It was my fault that the town was in chaos at the time, but a lot of information came from it that is going to be pro-town when we lynch you (because you are going to flip red).

I thought I wanted to kill ace... I always want to pressure him first, because he's the best player, but there is no way in hell I'm voting for Ace right now or willing to endorse his lynch. I am pretty sure that you have dug yourself a hole, and when I flip, you will definitely get killed.

Exactly. So if you know this to be true, why would you be against penalty claiming. You just admitted we can't figure out who's role is what based on penalties

Hi scum :D


Some of them imply blue. That's all mafia needs. Sure some blues might have penalties that don't hint that they are blue. How many people out there are green and have penalties that hint blue? So far only Divinek, who may be mafia. In any case hadn't heard otherwise and I'm sure the mafia like their odds based on how this conversation has played out (ie right into mafia hands) which is why I should have realized not to have the conversation in the first place but congrats for catching me playing like crap.


So you're implying that he caught you on your scum slip? I wouldn't say you've been playing like crap if you're red, you have a wagon going on me, and you almost had a townie with a vendetta lynch a town aligned power role, which would have been some absolute awesomeness for you.
The only crappy part about your play is that you were too willing to bandwagon and have little slipups about the amount of information you have.

Not at all chaoser. Action doesn't imply night action or day action. It can be anything. Voting is an action. Talking to a certain player is an action. Action does not imply blue! Look at page 3 of this thread. Hessmyrr points out 2 such instances:


[Shy Townie]
You are Townie! however you are shy and likes to avoid a crowd. You cannot vote for player with highest number of votes at that moment (it is fine if the player you have once voted becomes the one with the highest vote).


The role is Townie. The action is you can't vote for a certain player. If I only told you that you can't vote(the action) for a certain player (the penalty) you have no idea that the role is Townie.


You are Townie! You are also terrified of mafia lurking in the night, so must choose one person to visit every night (it will be randomly determined in case no decision was given). If mafia targets you on that night, you will be intercepted on the way to your target and will die alone.


The role is Townie once again. The action is visiting a player at night. The penalty is if you're caught visiting someone by mafia you die.

Looking at both penalties, how could you know whether the person is blue or green? You can't. The people coming up with this nonsense are bullshitting.

Perhaps I am reading this too closely, but I don't see the word "action" in either of those descriptions. In fact, they are quite different from what you and bumatlarge described, but close to what zeks posted.

At any rate what Bill did is against the rules unless he is red or knows something we don't. So I am still all for lynching him right now.



what did he do that was against the rules?

If he is not red, does not have additional information and has no restriction on speaking (as the OP says), he went for personal vendetta at the risk of screwing he town over. Usually there is a "play to win" rule.


Do you remember when L spent 2 weeks trying to get me lynched? It happens. I'm sorry, but I've dropped it, and am not trying to push it.

The next night would be lylo if I mishit tomorrow night, so I can wait a day, or not use it at all tomorrow night either if we get no info. If by some odd chance we have a bodyguard role, please for the love of God protect me tonight. If there is a tracker who can track a mafia to a kill tonight, that would be GREAT.

You don't offer up the other two people on the wagon for vigi hit, so who do you think is red?

Also if you think BM is red, which I think right now if BM doesn't hit anyone then like, we're pretty much going to lynch him tomorrow. So knowing that, BM needs to hit one of you guys for self preservation.


If I mishit someone we will have lylo a day earlier. Are you dumb? If someone can give me information on who a red is I will use my hit. I do not want us to lose a day early due to incompetance. We have already lost 1 informative town role and our medic, we do not need to lose our vig. Your play right now is screaming red to me, trying to get me lynched, since I'm a confirmable town member who is using his head and that threatens your little mafia.

Usually vigi hit is like a double lynch, the only thing is this time it's kinda like, well, it's like a double lynch where your second hit has limited choices. So the reason we would not want to use it is because we are so totally sure that those guys are not mafia, which we're certainly not

@Korynne: I disagree with you on this. I feel that one should not vigi and force lylo a day early when one does not have any information on who to vig.

I stated I wasn't going to be hitting anyone yet way before the night ended. If you don't believe me, go read what happened in between the lynch and the night post. It's only about a page. I seriously don't believe the town analyzed my post or even understood it whatsoever. I had noone respond to the difference that a mishit of my power would make for the town. I would rather give us, as a town, another day, than risk mishitting.

Oh, Bill didn’t think of that earlier?

Have you ever played with him? He had 6 posts this entire game. That + no better candidate at that time made him a good lynching choice. He certainly did try to help.

Normally I post a lot, I'm up all throughout the day, rarely one liners.

It's all wifom. That, along with the concept that BM doesn't need to shoot until it's LYLO makes it risky, but reasonable and definitely doable if he's confident that he'll be able to defend himself. However, I lean toward BM being town.

If he's red it's a gamble: if there is a vigi he's dead; if not, it's a very good cover (as Korynne and LSB repeatedly point out). This small chance at a good wifom alibi seems like a bad gamble to me vs. the reality of getting shot at night.

It sucks having to stake the game on BM making a "rational decision", but Korynne and the other suspects have in the meantime made me feel better about my choice.


I'm with you on that, I see why bluffing vigi is a bad idea. But at the same time, BM has not acted rational at all this game.

Day 1, his little mess up the town. That was not rational. It is unforgivable that he then twists his words to say it was a way to attack Pyrr

I'm more willing to buy the story that the medic protected BM from the Vigi hit because he was begging for protection

If chaoser is townie, we're at 5-3 tonight.

...hmm. If both BM and Korynne are townie, mafia hit someone else, we're at 3-3... Wait, really?

Exactly.

Let's check out Korynne's motives.

Townie Motives: She thinks BM is mafia, and so BM won't be able to shoot her. Next day is Lylo, but BM gets killed

Mafia Motives:
Kor is mafia: She knows she's going to die, so she tries her best to get another townie lynched. The mafia gets one extra kill essentially.

Kor/BM working together: If kor/bm are both in the mafia (very unlikely), this would delay the lynching by one day. BM would probably end up lynched though. So there is not much difference

The main problem is looking at Divinek/Citi.zen/DarthThieAn as the three group mafia. They know that if this plan goes through, it's gg.

Ofc BM isnt going to hit someone tonight so he never confirmed this whole game, Id swap out divine for DTA maybe.

Divienk and Citi.zen has never seriously accused someone (well out of day 1) in the Citi.zen/BM/Divienk/DTA group.

I am not so sure about BM and DTA
BM: He gets ganked, and then calls out for lane mates. Citi.zen/Divienk magically show up day 2. His working with them could be more sticking to people that helps him
DTA: We don't have enough info on DTA, DTA just joined in, and natrually he could trust the more active veterans of the game. The problem is, the more active members of the game are the mafia.

Then again, maybe swap out BM for DTA?

Okay sure.
Citi.zen actively went after Ace, Youngminii, Korynne, and Choaser
Citi.zen day 1 accused Bill Murray, but afterwards, he became Bill's biggest defender.
Otherwise, he doesn't seem to be making any new attacks

youngminii (4)
Divinek
citi.zen

Scamp

chaoser (2)
Korynne
zeks

Abstain/No Lynch (2)
bumatlarge
LSB

Bill Murray (1)
youngminii

Not voted yet (2): chaoser, Jayme

The reds are most likely three of: Korynne, LSB, bumatlarge, chaoser or jayme. Bum has an absurd claim, but let's cross him off for now.

Meaning:

* Korynne is red. It's not just the vote, it's repeated misstatements (Ace played "normal", Pyrr was "scummy" for saying the penalty claims were bad; BM NEEDS to kill someone to be "confirmed").
* Two of LSB, chaoser or jayme are red.

I used to think Scamp could be red as well, but I now doubt it.

That's my input, I will keep my vote on Korynne.

The weekend is here!


When I was reading, I leaned Korynne + bumatlarge as red. LSB/chaoser is sort of suspicious as well.

BM you shoud hit tonight, otherwise you are not "confirmed" and will very likely be lynched tomorrow given the amount of people suspecting you. So even if just by self-preservation, pick someone and go.

I'm assuming you are not a one-shot vigi and can shoot as many times as you want? If so mafia would most likely want you dead tonight otherwise we have a confirmed vigilante...

Also don't stump bum... >_>

This is weak. If Bill was red claiming vigi, he would have been vigi hit tonight.

Unless there is no vigi, in which case lol.


Why are we assuming there is a vigi? And who's to say the vigi doesn't have some kind of restriction and can't kill BM?

Also if BM was red claiming vigi...and I'm red... then like, what? Obviously BM can't vigi you if he's mafia, so then I'm pushing to make BM take a shot and then like omg BM didn't take a shot let's kill him? When everyone else is like, pfft, don't waste a shot guys.

FoS on BM, cuz I can't vote change. >_> I guess secondary FoS on citi.zen.

Like, if no one suspected BM, then I would go with the maybe wasting a vigi shot, but considering like a lot of people were suspicious of BM on day one, and then like more people suspicious of BM on day 2 but then me arguing for keeping BM around for the night for the purpose of confirming him, and him not taking the shot, then like, yeah, I'm done giving BM chances.


I think Ace was right before. Also, when is there NOT a kp role? No vigilante would mean that we have several detectives or something. And balance wise, it only makes sense to have one doctor (1 mafia kp). Based on that, we either have a vigilante or LSB is lying.

Why didn't he claim he wasn't hitting someone before the night ended? Like if citi.zen and BM are mafia they can just run on the oh hey let's not waste our vigi hit guys!

How are you so sure citi.zen, scamp and divinek are not mafia? Nobody did any substantial analysis, and citi.zen sure didn't bother to do any substantial analysis and just was like oh hey, divinek and scamp look innocent, let's not used the vigi hit tonight.

Usually vigi hit is like a double lynch, the only thing is this time it's kinda like, well, it's like a double lynch where your second hit has limited choices. So the reason we would not want to use it is because we are so totally sure that those guys are not mafia, which we're certainly not.

Also BM what do you mean I'm lying low on the radar for voting? I can't switch my vote! That's why I FoS'd you. Consider those "votes."

So how about this, I'll vote for majority at the end of the day. If BM feels like I'm totally scummy he can vigi my ass. And if BM is mafia as I suspect then my ass will not be vigi'd. And then of course there's the option of both me and BM are town and like, falcepalm.

Also like, lots of inactivity going on while me, BM, and citi.zen bicker. With other people inserting like, a line or two in places.


This post deflects a little bit o.O. I kind of like the plan though. Where he shoots you, I mean :D. Minus the part where we leave you alive :D.


That post DarthThienAn accuses Me/Korynne/bumatlarge/Chaoser. I know that I, Korynne, and Bum are all green. Chaoser is the wildcard in the list, but with 3/4 already wrong, I'm more inclined to believe that Choaser is green

I think citi.zen is trying to say that killing innocents is a good thing.

A little confession to help solidify the vote tomorrow?

I just don't see who could be the godfather with the remaining people left
maybe citi.zen, but his play has been different than his play as red to me, which makes me suspect a newer player like LSB or DarthThienAn who is "up and coming" for godfather... well, not DTA, actually, because Jayme isn't that type of player.

When I die, don't let me death go unpunished guys

Well... there is no godfather.
I'll explain tomorrow morning (if I'm still alive). Basically my role revolved on taking out the godfather, however, there was no godfather, so I got a bastard role.

Sorry charlie, have fun trying to convince the town to lynch LSB!

Glad you're so sure of yourself.

No point trying to persuade you of anything. Please, in future games, don't ask random people to tell you what to do. Invest the time to think for yourself.

Yeah maybe you should go back a few pages, DTA was a fresh take on the game, but all that talk and we're basically screwed anyway? I'll just resort to what I feel thank you very much. It just so happens LSB feels the sameway.


Just :-)

...Thanks too my legendary rhetorical skills!

She didn't seem like scum, the reason why people killed her was for saying things that many people believed.

It doesn't matter if she was wrong or right. All that matters is that she flipped town. And apparently, you... don't... care...

Hmmm... I guess then the doctor role was just really weakened - the mafia can choose to hit a non-protected person every time. Since there are no clear ways to confirm people in this set-up (other than the day-vigi), was this nerf necessary?

I must be missing some possibilities here...

I think the doctor is more for protection. He're what I think Hesmyrr was thinking.

Day 1, random person gets killed
Day 2, Pyrr goes check someone, finds if they are green or red. Claims DT.
Ace's role was to protect Pyrr. If the mafia decided to hit Pyrr, they'd have to waste the next nights role. Either way, that should create at 2 confirmed townies.

Confirmed Townie 1: Ace, Hesmyrr's post in the night automatically gets him confirmed

When Pyrr dies, whoever he checks will be confirmed, so that would leave 2 Confirmed Townies

I mentioned the hypothetical Ace/chaoser/LSB/bumatlarge group in the above post of mine. That's exactly how it should have worked. Had Ace survived, chaoser claims and reveal his intent to shoot Ace, and Ace subsequently fully claims also (or vice versa). Because both are mod-verifiable, their lynch should be delayed and chaoser would vote for someone in the "unconfirmed" pool while Ace protect him. Because two clear town roles are in open, LSB would also claim and reveal his bumatlarge investigation.

Ah! I see.

As for Bum, I didn't bother claiming because he was never under much suspicion, and I didn't want him to get nightkilled, since I liked knowing who one of the townies was. I was planning on claiming and explaining everything day 4, but I got killed so that's that.

Anyway thanks to everyone for playing my first modded game in TeamLiquid! It could have been far better - especially disappointed about my inability to produce flavour text in time, wireless internet getting kaputt every night did not help matters either - but it was valuable experience for me.

Thanks for hosting! It was a fun concept that everyone got some sort of power, good or bad.
