Please do.

I like your plan, but think it unlikely that you can marshal enough support to get everyone following along. In that case a contingency plan needs to be made.

Contingency Plan: Focusing on building a list of innocents is really all we need, as the other lists are far less useful. We need to have only pro-town players voting for Barundar. I love that my pro-town list looks basically exactly like yours with a few small changes. Ironically I have both Kavdragon and GMarshall as likely town players, and flamewheel at neutral at best, but mostly nothing.

This comes early Day 1. Notice how bold and confident it is. Was he wrong? Yes. Honestly, his case is made off of very little information and many assumptions. But that didn't stop him. After his first accusation post he keeps pushing. Even after this, he keeps mentioning his thoughts. All throughout the day he points out scum. Not "gathering information", but real accusations. He accuses at least 5 people throughout day 1. Even when DH says he will consider lynching him, Kav remains aggressive, maintains his focus on DH, and dares DH to lynch him. That is aggressive, risky play. Now look at this game. Kavdragon suddenly retracts into his hole, is "afraid" of good players, and needs to poke for information. He doesn't follow a coherent train of thought, and his defense isn't anywhere near convincing either. He doesn't strongly accuse anyone of anything, and his defense shows that he cares a lot. Overall, strong case for red.

I disagree with the Kavdragon lynch. I'll admit that I've been skim reading some of his later posts, but after a quick look through, I still don't get the scum vibe. I agree with some of your points Incog, but on the whole disagree with the conclusion. Mind you, I haven't read through his other games, so your opinion is a bit more learned than mine.

Anyways, Kav has had some bold, unafraid posts in this game. He has been disagreeing with people with reckless abandon, and for at least the first half of the game, seemed very confident. Again, can't compare with his other games, but i'm really picking up the opposite vibe.

Another possible reason to vote Barundar over Kavdragon, is that if he's mafia Barundar very likely took CPR Doc. He was 'assigned' this role, so would not look suspicious if he took it, and it's very difficult to discover if he uses it or not.

Please point out some of these "bold, unafraid posts". Disagreeing with people is normal, especially in a game such as this one where the lynch is fragmented. It also depends on what he is disagreeing on. I'm not sure I see these posts you are referring to though.

Before you make a final call, I suggest you look back at some of his previous games, namely XXXVIII and XXXIV. They're totally different styles and it shows.

And the point about Barundar likely being CPR doc is moot. There are plenty of good mafia roles. If we lynch one, we're likely to knock out something good.



Funny enough I had some posts(the node fos and another one) that I was going to use as examples at the end of my post. Upon rereading I decided not to include them, as I felt they didn't really quite satisfy the requirement. Perhaps this is a sign you're right.

Anyways, my hesitancy to lynch Kavdragon stems from 2 places:

1) In any other game I've played in, players who have posted like Kavdragon this game always flip Town. Nothing I've seen this game from Kav has triggered alarm bells for me, and to tell the truth has actually done the opposite(it doesn't feel like he's trying to be town). I realize you're basing your lynch push not necessarily off posts this game, but rather comparisons to other games. In this I'll have to trust you. If Kav lives another day, I promise I'll look through those games, but I don't have the pizazz to do it right now(i'm tired and ready for bed).

2) I can't shake the feeling that you are redirecting people away from my Barundar vote. I've been fooled by you before, and as such you have only yourself to blame. With that in mind, I feel it's best to go with my strong suspicion of Barundar(a suspicion you share). Are you willing to leave off on Kavdragon for Day 1(let ace shoot him if you want ) to lend me a vote on Barundar? After all, it's what you're asking of me.

so, whatever you do, don't claim your numbers, we want to throw the mafia off, the last thing we want them is to be able to take two kp roles or something like that.

Onto GM's Mafia Power denial plan. In this game there are several powers that are really, really anti town, and rather powerful, the GF's, the PoD and such. The easiest way to counter these powers is to know who has them, that way we avoid their usage by having someone responsible for them. For this reason I have created a draft of the most "anti-town" roles in the game and assigned numbers to pick them. If your number in the draft order coincides with this power then you *must* pick it, so we can control what roles the mafia has.

1-5- KP roles, America/CPR doc/inventor or roles you know you can use effectively (pupeteer, etc) I also advise that the MethMan be picked up there to encourage the mafia to not shoot into those roles.

Position 6- Theif. We dont want the mafia to have this, since its even more anti-town than copycat in mafia hands, as it allows them to deny us a role and gain a powerful role.

7- Caller Godfather- since its extremely anti town and essentially adds a traitor to our ranks, its not something I want to worry about

8- PoD- again extremely anti town, lets deny its usage shall we?

9- vote rigger, like a pardoner on steroids, if a pardoner pardons we just lynch him, we have no way of catching the rigger, this way we know who he is

from here on down people should choose what they feel they can use effectively and to the benefit of the town. By following this plan we eliminate the threat of 4 worrisome roles that can really hurt the town. This needs some refinement naturally, but it seems to me like a decent start. Also if any of these roles have been taken we know that the mafia is somewhere in the top five and *really* wants whatever role it is they took, thus we can focus our search on those

Pardoner dosn't worry me as he must out himself to use his power and is then guaranteed to be made a pincushion by our vigis and other killing roles, and the threat of the copycat is nullified as long as we lynch someone low on the list.

Just my initial thoughts, comments?


I question whether it's a good idea to specifically deny the mafia powerful roles. There are certainly a few roles that would be extraordinarily powerful in the hands of the mafia, but there are enough good-to-very strong roles that if they didn't feel comfortable picking top-tier they could just go elsewhere. In addition, there's the more "quirky" roles where a well-executed tactic could be disastrous (for instance, check out the synergy between the mason and the agent of chaos) but difficult to predict and deny.

I'd rather see the town prioritize the roles that would be really powerful in the hands of the town. For instance, the Assassin could basically be used as an alignment-checking DT that kills mafia when they find them. There's very little risk in having the role going to a townie. Other potentially good town roles include Cupid, Priest, and Jailkeeper. I haven't extensively gone into any other possibilities, but there's definitely good stuff out there.



Node's ideas are wrong, and wrong in a way that benefits mafia.

Mafia wants to get the powerful roles, and the will try to get them. Anything beyond this is WIFOM. We can build a list of roles that the mafia will likely try to obtain, and have town go after those roles. If a townie and a mafia try to get the same role, town wins: The ratio of mafia to townies is 1/4, so if we send one townie to block a role that the mafia want, we only allocate 1/4 of the manpower that the mafia has to in order to try for the role, and they have no better chance of getting that power than the townie does.

This is very similar to the reason that 1-1 trades work well.

I'm not saying that we should not go for pro-town roles, but that we need to also go for anti town roles. We have a manpower advantage over the mafia, and we should utilize it.

Compound this with the fact that node states his opinions very tentatively, and you've got yourself an FOS: node.

So... I meant to post this a while ago, but ended up without a internet connection till now.

As I see it there are two general ways that each side can go: You can deny the other team's power roles, or you can gain your team's power roles. Statistically it's a horrible idea for the mafia to try to deny us, rather than gain power roles. (Because of the limited number of players on their team)

Even though the mafia has the advantage of being able to communicate and organize, I think that the town still has a huge advantage at this stage because of sheer manpower. We have three times the number of players, and I think that using that advantage is going to be key in getting the upper hand in this drafting phase.

What I mean is this: We have enough players to both block the mafia from getting their most powerful roles, AND still pick up our most powerful roles. The only thing that we need to figure out is what order we need to take those roles.

As mentioned earlier, the mafia can't afford to get any roles that are powerful for the town, unless they are also powerful for the mafia. Because of this, I think that any powers that are weak for the mafia should NOT be chosen early even if they are very powerful for the town. The top picks should be roles that are powerful for both sides, followed by roles that are very powerful in mafia hands (but not so much in town hands), followed by roles that are powerful for town (but not so much for mafia).


People have said that we should just not pick mafia roles, and lynch anyone found with them. I disagree strongly, as it is that sort of passive play that will allow the mafia to get exactly what they need, and rofl stomp us. Those role will very likely be taken regardless, so I'd rather do something like Radfield is suggesting, and assign them to people, so that we know where those roles are.


Sorry if it covers some things that have already been talked about. Radfield: Even if Flamewheel isn't willing to take thief, it would still work if we just shifted everything down a position, right?

Why are you all assuming the Mafia 2 Detective is town? Think of the mess we will get into if a scum detective gets us running in circles after providing false numbers. This kind of information is a novelty at best.



A good point, but once that player dies and his alignment flips, we would have our answer. As such, mafia can't kill him, and must let a dt live(assuming no janitor). It's a win-win really.

Either way, lets discuss it no further and instead focus on the lynch, our actual priority. I have to go to bed, but I really hope people come around to vote Barundar. Bum, you need to pick up the torch here . If Kavdragon is lynched instead, so be it, it's not the end of the world, but I don't think it's our optimum play.

So much for 100% eh Incog....

On the bright side, this lynch hopefully gives us oodles of information down the line, once incog and Barundars alignment flips. On another bright note, Incognito won't get targeted by mafia tonight, so in the event he is town he'll probably survive the night. Unless of course a townie shoots him, but if that's the case so be it.

Mr. Wiggles, I very much disagree with your rolecheck list. There is a list of roles in this game that no townie should be caught dead with, so we want to use our rolechecks to try and ascertain alignment. Checking the people at the top of the list gives us very little information regarding their alignment. The top 6/7 all have an excellent excuse(whether legit or not) for taking an anti-town role. No one else on the list has that excuse. Anyone with a role check should be looking at whomever they think is scummy lower down on the list. If they have a scummy role(a role on the no-pick list) then they're probably mafia.

I really hope someone does an alignment check on Barundar. Even setting aside my suspicions, he was assigned caller gf or cpr doc, so knowing his alignment is very important.

Other players worth an alignment check:
Flamewheel
Infinitestory?
Incognito
Mr. Wiggles
Chaoser
dreamflower

Players worth some medic protection:
Radfield
Bum
Caller
Ace - probably won't get picked off though
foolishness - if town he likely has a defensive role anyways
GMarshall - there are heaps of suspicion on him, so he is unlikely to get hit
Scamp, as inventor, should get a skiff of medic protection


Anyone else dying wouldn't be terrible at this point.

I'd like to stress that flamewheel doesn't belong on any medic lists, or townie lists. He has done very little to contribute to the town this game. Besides, assuming he is telling the truth about JOAT, I'm pretty sure he can protect himself if he wants to.

Inventor(Scamp) should be passing the vote-list checks either to whomever they have the strongest pro-town read on.

Chaoser, despite finishing his interviews(his pre-tuesday excuse) still ended up contributing basically zero to the discussion. Simply popped in and voted Incog. Pick it up Chaoser.

+ Show Spoiler +
Incog, you fooled me the first game I ever played. I was sure you were pro-town, but instead you dominated town, took control, and lead mafia to victory with about 5 members left over. Something flamewheel hosted... XXI maybe?

Ace, your attack of the Barundar train is silly given the fact that Kav flipped town. Basically what you're saying is that Barundar was an easy target for mafia to lump in on. That makes no sense, since they(we) were given an excellent opportunity to vote for Kavdragon instead, who flipped town. Anyone who needed a place to vote could have been 'persuaded' to vote Kav at any time.

Now, that being said, the Barundar vote was the initial 2nd choice to voting for Incognito, so if by chance mafia were attempting to save Incog, then Barundar would have been the place to vote. However, if you're looking at votes to save Incog, it's the three that came down the stretch for Kav that did it. NO votes came down the stretch for Barundar(except for Foolishness, a valiant effort, but a failed one).

Bumatlarge. Where were you(I don't mean this literally)? You vehemently defended Kavdragon early on, but completely disappeared for 6 hours, despite the heat growing considerably on him, only to pop in 1 minute after the day post to apologize. You never once pushed for Barundar, a player who was a viable alternative to Kav.

GMarshal, Node, and Flamewheel need to explain their last-second voting of KavDragon.



Meh, townies do this all the time. Mafia very rarely do this. If Incog flips red at some point, then lets come back to this, but for now....

Also, if we assume that one of Barundar and Incognito is green and one red, then it would have made sense for mafia to stack the votes on the opposite player, since these were the leading candidates. Not to try to rally another player who was still 3 votes away. If both were green, then mafia players would never make a last minute push for Kav, another green player.

A last minute push for Kav only makes sense in the context that both Incog and Barundar are red. This is possible, but unlikely given that Barundar was pushing for Incog (who looked like he was getting lynched).

I guess from this I have to infer that Barundar is probably town. The problem is that at this point every time I read his posts my eyes mist over red, so I'm going to have to let other players be the judge of him moving forward.

I was looking forward to hearing from you when I flipped!

In all seriousness I pretty much ignored your analysis as stupid and went to bed fed up. But if you have questions for me I'll try and answer as well as I can.



I think it basically comes down to this: You're somewhat tentative in your posting, and tend to offer sensible, sometimes obvious, but always general advice. Your vote post on Incognito screamed mafia to me, because it's so very tentative and wishy washy. You kinda put reasons for voting Incog out there, but don't actively push them, and don't really try to convince anyone to you viewpoint. For me this rang alot of alarm bells.

Also, since the lynch your posting is still making me think scum. In one post you throw minor suspicion on about 6 or 7 different people, but don't really make any strong statements any which way.

Anyways, the data is pointing me in another direction, so I'm forced to conclude for the moment that my issue is with you posting style more than anything. Also, I've been wrong many times before on Day 1(and let it color my perception), so unless someone else really leads the charge, I doubt I'll push for you again.

So if anyone has multiple KP and is unsure of who to hit, deconduo is an obvious choice



Hold the phone. Decon claims to have taken bulletproof and missed. Bulletproof is almost useless for a mafia player, and there are wayyy more other pro-town roles that also benefit mafia hugely, while still looking pro-town. I don't see an anti-town player drafting for Bulletproof, hopefully we can mainly agree on that. It's possible, but would be a really bad play.

There are 18 players below Decon, and I bet at least one of them went after Bulletproof. If someone else drafted it, then they will call him out.

Assuming Decon is town, it also gives every player above him a modicum of protection from mafia tonight.

As a general note on using a bunch of KP night 1. This is a terrible idea. Mostly for the obvious reason that the amount of info we have will skyrocket after our first mafia kill, and as the game goes on. But also, there are multiple roles in this game which allow players to avoid lynches, in the event this happens, town really needs some KP to deal with it.

Also, there should be more discussion about the inventor. We shouldn't give free reign to the power roles to do whatever they feel like. So far the two most popular suggestions have been bulletproof vests and vote checking kits. If a vote checking kit was to be created, town should inform which group to use it on so we don't have overlap. Like I said before, no ambiguous names should be tolerated. If we see a "potato" in the night post rather than "A bomb that only blows up when given to mafia", then the inventor should be strongly considered as a lynch candidate.


Agreed. Inventor(Scamp) needs to create one or the other in my mind. Obviously if he's mafia he will just give it to his buddy. Given that, a vote-checker is much more useless to mafia than a Bulletproof vest. So, lets see a vote-checking kit tonight.

That'll find mafia for sure, and kill them too.

Also, "Vote-checking Kit" is still ambiguous. For all we know, it will check vote-lists and tell mafia how many people with roles voted to help them snipe.

I say we put in a policy where the person who received the inventor item must claim that they did so, so we can keep them accountable. That way, if they feed us false information, we can do something about it.



That's still a moderately useless item for mafia to have. Remember, it's only a one use item(I assume).

Also, what would you name your bomb that could be unambiguous. Assuming Ver would allow an item like that, obviously it would be great.

Well we need to talk about something.

Here's some interesting tidbits:

Everytime I read the name Chaoser, I pronounce it Chowsah in my head...

Instead of seeing Infinitestory, I read Infestory. Like a pantry, but infested.

Hi Ace Just sleeping like every night.

It should have been apparant from the way I was posting in thread that I didn't take VR, but given how much your pushing, I'll assume you actually did check me last night. Here's the thing, if you know my role, which I assume you do, you shouldn't even need to question me. You should be saying " ahhhh, I see, I understand certain things now". You get what I'm saying?

Yes, I didn't take vote-rigger, and that was a risk if mafia went for it below me(and then rigged the votes; obviously I would get held accountable).

hmm, originally I was going to say more here Ace(and Fishball), but have edited most of it out. Lets be smart.

Ver, does the politician have to post in the thread with their ##nuke or ##lynch target? I've been assuming this is the case, but now i'm not so sure.

I think this guarantees us a politician. A kingmaker on it's own it at worst a nuisance for town, at best a useful double lynch. Combined with a politician it is massively nasty. There is no way mafia would take Kingmaker without a politician, and no way a townie kingmaker would make Mr. Wiggles the king. Do people disagree with this hypothesis?

Mr. Wiggles, I'd like for you to cast your vote right now for KillerSOS. If you do not, I think we will almost certainly lose a pro-town player to the politician. From my understanding, the king lynch operates like a dayvig, so if you use your power now, it's gone and there is nothing for the politician to use. If people want to call me scummy on this, that's fine, but it's the smart play.

After looking through Mafia XXVII(the RoL version). OriginalName was active, contributory and actively engaged in discussing pretty much most topics. This game: inactive, disruptive and barely touches on anything.

Originalname, it would be nice to see you pick up the pace. From a brief look, your town play was fairly solid in XXVII, at least enough to draw a hit night 2. It would be nice to see you contribute to the discussion in this game as well.

KAVDRAGON (6): , GMarshal, Caller, Incognito, Chezinu, Node, flamewheel

Wiggles needs to lynch Chezinu. Not KillerSOS as I previously mentioned. Also not 'someone he thinks is scummy'.

Chezinu is outrageously hard to read, and has basically no posts to analyse. It's a trait that gets you into trouble when something like this happens.

I really like playing with you Chez, and you make me laugh. No hard feelings


The rest of those players could go either way right now, though I'm not convinced Incog is scum and flame is edging upwards.

Other than that, I'm going to be looking at Callers past games tonight, and try to get a better feel for him. I will hopefully give Node some time as well.

Whatever Incog's alignment, shooting into those 6 players is great for town(and shooting Chez in particular). If Incog actually turns out to be America, we should not lynch. As long as he is willing to off anti-town players, it's a boon for us on the whole. If he ever does make an anti-town play, or even a questionable play that he tries to talk himself out of, we lynch. The way Ace is talking he'll shoot him tonight though.

Speaking of Ace, why the hell are you softballing suspicion on me over my role? If you know my role, you know EXACTLY why I didn't follow my own plan. Fishball, assuming you rolechecked me(which you are insinuating) can you back me up that a) you know exactly why I did what I did, and b) there is no reason to be suspicious of me not taking VR. If you keep this up Ace, I'm probably gonna have to make an all-caps angry role claim....

Wiggles, where did you go. Lynch node if you pop in in the next hour, but i'm going to go over Caller right now, and may or may not make a case. I originally had him as town, but I seem to recall him playing fairly semi-lurker when he's mafia, and he's been quite quiet this game. Nothing sure yet though....

Actually, why has the politician not already acted.... maybe you don't need to rush Mr.Wiggles

Ver can you give us a run down of how the kingmaker/ politician roles work in conjunction.

Does the politician have to post in thread to use the power?
Does the politician lynch show up at the end of the day or immediately?
Will Wiggles be informed if he loses his lynch?
etc.
