Huh? I don't understand your post. The confirmed Townie tells the player who he is going to shoot or protect, he doesn't tell all Medics what every Medic is doing.

Since we know how much KP Mafia has I very much doubt any of them are going to be able to claim Vig.

So you want one townie conducting every single vig hit/medic protect/hatter bomb?

k here's an example.

Mafia-I will be protecting player x
Confirmed townie-no someone else is protecting him.

now mafia know's to not hit player x.


I would be more open to this plan day 2 or 3. But all i see is 2 townies getting lynched and losing a dayvig and that person most likely dying the next night.

How is that going to keep discussion focused on blues? We'll have 2 lynches to discuss and basically skip night 1. If you say it's rare to hit mafia that way day1 it's exactly the same way as a day1 lynch and we go straight into the next lynch with info from the flip/wagons.

so we should kill more townies to get more information? the best thing to do imo is save the town kp for the end when it becomes safer to use, that's how games get won lol'

it isnt a skip night 1 simple mafia stack hits on vig ruining everything no wthere are probably 3 dead townies and a wasted town kill power thats a great plan i support it 100%.....


Are you opposed to this plan in general? Or its use day 1? I fully support this plan day 2, and tentatively day 1 depending on town's conviction of the victim.

After 24 hours if we don't have a strongly suitable candidate, I don't think we should use the day vig just yet. The soldier is the most powerful role for the town: a day vig that can confirm himself. Let's not waste it on someone who is sorta fishy/lurky just to get a confirmed townie. We can wait till day 2.

I can't see mafia not double stacking the day vig night 1 if he is revealed. He provides an easy outlet for dt checks and the ability to coordinate all roleblocks and protections. If we wait till day 2, it'll be a lot clearer for the day vig to coordinate who to roleblock/kill/protect etc. Also if we wait till day 2, the night 1 DT checks will provide confirmed townie/scum. So if the day vig is doublestacked, he can pass his entire network to the confirmed townies. That way everything isn't completely destroyed if the day vig dies.


Wait, what? No, there wouldn't be confirmed townies aside from the Dayvig unless you're risking letting the info fall into the hands of the godfather. Why would you suggest that? I understand picking townie isn't likely, but it's still a possibility we CANNOT rule out. There are confirmed scum through DT checks, but no confirmed townies.

Also, day2 reveals a problem as well. If the DT checks the dayvig, he's essentially wasted a DT check.

[00:15] <Lucidity> but we need to discuss it a bit more to ascertain whether the reward outweighs the risks
[00:15] <Lucidity> if the day vig knows what he's doing I think it could be quite effective
[00:15] <mig__> yea
[00:16] <mig__> I think the positives far out weight the negatives
[00:17] <Lucidity> we'll have to assume that some mafia will fake claim
[00:18] <Lucidity> not doing so would be detrimental to them
[00:18] <mig__> yes I think that is the best part
[00:18] <mig__> is the possibility of them fucking up the fake claims
[00:18] <Lucidity> But which fake claims have the potential to be hurtful to town?
[00:18] <Drazerk> not sure how they can fake claim
[00:18] <mig__> if an abnormal amount of roles are claimed it should be obvious to the day vig something is up
[00:18] <Lucidity> only medic as far as i can see
[00:19] <Lucidity> fake everything else only helps town in the long run
[00:19] <mig__> well the mafias plan will likely be fake claim today then shoot day vig tonight
[00:19] <mig__> just want to fake long enough that the day vig doesnt have them killed in the night

The fact that he is defending him so hard for such a simple joke is retarded. He is now fully on board with the Sand plan after he realizes how scummy it makes him look for opposing the idea and now is defending himself even more because of my pressure vote.

*yawn* So out of drH and redff there is a clear difference between the two of them. Both are arguing against this plan. First of all, a lot of drH's concerns are legit. A lot of questions based around this plan that makes it "solid" received not so good responses from the mods. IE not exploitable.

I see the advantages of the plan, and if we could actually think of a target for day 1 to day vig it would be fine, however. This is a game with 4 mafia, 1 gf and 1 rber in the mix most likely. The next issue is a simple bit of knowledge of qatol and ver helped balance the game. Very few KP will be in this game. Counting on a day vig for all our hopes seems...shortsighted. If we have one, awesome, however we should have 2 kp at most given the setup. 1 med and 1 vet, or 2 vets, would be a likely blue setup for night survival and 1 dt if we are lucky. As this is speculation based on how to not make a game horribly OP for town I would guess no day kp as that would make town confirmable.

However, if this plan can be made to work then thats fine and good. My issue now stems from DrH and redFF. DrH has been arguing against it in thread. He has been on the bad side of this sort of situation before, and I can see where he might have learned from that. I have no issues with him doing so primarily because he is doing it here, in thread. Redff however has been arguing this on irc. If he was so sure of his stance he should have taken it here in thread. Massive FoS by excluding info from thread.

if you don't understand my opposition just PM me. im not gonna repeat myself over and over in this thread and i dont want to distract the town anymore. the plan doesnt skip a night at all its not the same as a double lynch. lynches/kp are more valuable to town over time absolutely. if the dayvig thing happens anyway i have a way to vastly improve it but i cant announce that to anyone but the dayvig if the plan goes through but i still think its a bad idea.

...lol post the irc chat please, that is not a decent reason. Regardless, have any of you guys a scum saying he's a vig and figuring out who the other shots are at? or a scum saying he's a medic and finding out who's protecting who? I've played games where everyone has claimed to a "confirmed townie" and scum have raped and taken advantage of this, so please don't tell me the plan is faultless. If a vig is willing to use his shot as a lynch then it's ok. But I'm really not sure that day 1 is the best time to have a double lynch. Yeah the day when we have the least information and most likely to lynch town is when we should double lynch!

There, that's my opinion if you think it's scummy then vote me. Draz post what was scummy in the irc chat please.

How will he figure out who the other vig shots are aimed at? How will a fake medic find out who the other medics are protecting? Who said the plan is faultless?

I think I'll take your advice and vote for you!

##vote redFF



If there isn't a great candidate for day vig I agree with heist's Day 2 proposal. We don't really want to use our vigi's and hatters on Night 1 anyway, do we? Confirmed townie might be more effective on Day 2. The only problem is the risk of losing him on Night 1...

I will say this because it's important everyone understands hitting mafia doesn't happen on random chance. It's about post analysis. The longer the game goes on, the less people there are (higher statistical chance, fairly important) and the more material there is to analyse (very important) making town KP much more reliable.

...lol post the irc chat please, that is not a decent reason. Regardless, have any of you guys a scum saying he's a vig and figuring out who the other shots are at? or a scum saying he's a medic and finding out who's protecting who? I've played games where everyone has claimed to a "confirmed townie" and scum have raped and taken advantage of this, so please don't tell me the plan is faultless. If a vig is willing to use his shot as a lynch then it's ok. But I'm really not sure that day 1 is the best time to have a double lynch. Yeah the day when we have the least information and most likely to lynch town is when we should double lynch!

There, that's my opinion if you think it's scummy then vote me. Draz post what was scummy in the irc chat please.

How will he figure out who the other vig shots are aimed at? How will a fake medic find out who the other medics are protecting? Who said the plan is faultless?

I think I'll take your advice and vote for you!

##vote redFF



If there isn't a great candidate for day vig I agree with heist's Day 2 proposal. We don't really want to use our vigi's and hatters on Night 1 anyway, do we? Confirmed townie might be more effective on Day 2. The only problem is the risk of losing him on Night 1...

What about night 2 makes a dayvig safer lol

not if we are doing it how sand proposes

in that case it would just be the same as lynching a townie which is much worse
[7:50pm] alanismorisette:
yeah
[7:50pm] alanismorisette:
i guess
[7:50pm] Curu:
you also had no problem shooting on like page 1 of your other game as day vig

How is that going to keep discussion focused on blues? We'll have 2 lynches to discuss and basically skip night 1. If you say it's rare to hit mafia that way day1 it's exactly the same way as a day1 lynch and we go straight into the next lynch with info from the flip/wagons.

so we should kill more townies to get more information? the best thing to do imo is save the town kp for the end when it becomes safer to use, that's how games get won lol'

it isnt a skip night 1 simple mafia stack hits on vig ruining everything no wthere are probably 3 dead townies and a wasted town kill power thats a great plan i support it 100%.....


Are you opposed to this plan in general? Or its use day 1? I fully support this plan day 2, and tentatively day 1 depending on town's conviction of the victim.

After 24 hours if we don't have a strongly suitable candidate, I don't think we should use the day vig just yet. The soldier is the most powerful role for the town: a day vig that can confirm himself. Let's not waste it on someone who is sorta fishy/lurky just to get a confirmed townie. We can wait till day 2.

I can't see mafia not double stacking the day vig night 1 if he is revealed. He provides an easy outlet for dt checks and the ability to coordinate all roleblocks and protections. If we wait till day 2, it'll be a lot clearer for the day vig to coordinate who to roleblock/kill/protect etc. Also if we wait till day 2, the night 1 DT checks will provide confirmed townie/scum. So if the day vig is doublestacked, he can pass his entire network to the confirmed townies. That way everything isn't completely destroyed if the day vig dies.


Wait, what? No, there wouldn't be confirmed townies aside from the Dayvig unless you're risking letting the info fall into the hands of the godfather. Why would you suggest that? I understand picking townie isn't likely, but it's still a possibility we CANNOT rule out. There are confirmed scum through DT checks, but no confirmed townies.

Also, day2 reveals a problem as well. If the DT checks the dayvig, he's essentially wasted a DT check.


I just don't want the day vig dying night 1 to a double stack and losing such a good role and info coodination. The godfather is a possibility I completely forgot about. I suppose it is a risk you can't take.

Huh? I don't understand your post. The confirmed Townie tells the player who he is going to shoot or protect, he doesn't tell all Medics what every Medic is doing.

Since we know how much KP Mafia has I very much doubt any of them are going to be able to claim Vig.

So you want one townie conducting every single vig hit/medic protect/hatter bomb?

k here's an example.

Mafia-I will be protecting player x
Confirmed townie-no someone else is protecting him.

now mafia know's to not hit player x.


I would be more open to this plan day 2 or 3. But all i see is 2 townies getting lynched and losing a dayvig and that person most likely dying the next night.


No, it goes like this:

Mafia-I will be protecting player x
Confirmed townie-stfu I choose who you protect, you'll be protecting player y
Mafia-Okay...


Yup, and if Mafia shoots player Y, and player Y dies, then clearly the medic isn't a medic but is mafia. :/ So if mafia tries to be medic, it effectively hurts them.

DrH has the right idea here. Yes, confirmed townies are excellent. However, mafia can easily fake claim a role like medic or vig, and then we would need to waste our DT checks in order to confirm those claims. Not only that, but we have no idea who the day vig actually is. If it's in the hands of a weaker player, that could lead to complete and utter disaster. Having one player coordinate all the actions of the blues is never a good thing. There is far too much room for error in such a situation, especially since mafia are able to PM and influence the game as well. Ultimately, however, it is up to the individuals with the roles to decide what to do. Discussion about this is very good, but I would rather not waste all day with it. Just something to keep in mind if we're still arguing about it in 24 hours.



Vigis, because there are probably a lot of you in here: Do not shoot unless it is at confirmed scum. If you feel you must shoot anyway, take out lurkers and liars. This sort of common sense is all too often ignored, and results in dead town. Even take DT claims with a grain of salt. If analysis points to a player being town when a claimed check has shown red, proceed with caution. It could be a miller or a scum's fake claim in order to waste a vig shot, especially if the claimed DT player has been under suspicion.

I'm trying to think of ways to not have the confirmed townie train end with the Soldier's death, but actually now that I think about it more, there can't be double of every blue role. Unless mafia would really like to stick out their necks, there should be at least a singular blue role claim. That's the person the Soldier can pass the information to. We can increase this likelihood by switching the day vig from Soldier to Sniper.

What is everyone's thoughts on making one sniper claim and do the day vig shot? As far as I know mafia can't day vig. And I'm almost positive there is only 1 soldier, who can confirm himself if need be.

Fake claiming Medic acts like real Medic, because then Mafia can never hit the person they are told to protect without risking outing the fake claimer.

Fake claiming Vig is terrible when we know Mafia KP, they can be caught ezpz.

My only real qualm about the plan is the possibility of 2 dead townies day 1, but I don't see a huge problem with setting up a town circle around a confirmed dayvig.

People shouldn't be expecting shitloads of blues though. If we have a medic, which we might not, (21 players, remember) they will be tied up making sure the only confirmed player doesn't kick the bucket.

Nothing should be shared in IRC that would not be shared in thread, by the way. If our confirmed town wants to direct blues or if people want to claim to him, do it in PMs, for the love of god, and don't start talking in thread or irc like you're a confirmed blue.

The only one who should know is the confirmed townie. Information leaks kills blues in PM games.

Should we use the plan, I suggest a very simple system: vote normally. Whoever has the most votes dies.
For he is the Oystermeister, lord of all the oysters.
