amigo, do you have anything other than the obvious to tell us? Do you think that slam500 and Forumite are scummy, and why?
As soon as the day rolls around i'm going to send a pm to everybody who hasn't posted at all to prompt them. Too many vets are lurking in this game.

Prior to Kurumi getting banned he had PMed me with an idea to use a tie in the voting to effectively eliminate lurkers. I told him I would support such an idea however the mechanics of making it happen need a lot of work. If he was in contact via PM with any body else regarding this idea shoot me a PM and let's see if we can make it work. I thinks it's a good idea but I don't know if it can be implemented.

Night 0:A quiet day, but a stormy night, as the whole forum was abuzz with talk of one of the biggest transfers in SC2's short life allegedly about to break. Everyone was transfixed by it, but a few had other motives for not taking notice of this event. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Hot_Bid/soldout.jpg) Not quite the biggest thing to hit eSports...Nothing happened during the night.It is Day 1, LET THE GAMES BEGIN

I am sick and in bed, so pardon being a bit early. You have 48 hours and 23 minutes to decide to lynch someone.

Alright so if nothing happened I am going to throw this out there for all of you to chew on. Scum team lies within the multitude of peoples that have not posted in the game yet. Sound plausible?

statistically unlikely, but possible that at least one of the scum hasn't posted yet. Lots of vets too. JeeJee, OrigninalName (vets compared to the very new playerbase of this game)

Well we don't know what the scum count is at the start. As they apparently have the ability to either kill or convert us I would suspect beginning numbers to be quite low. If that is the case then it is more statistically likely that they have not posted. Of course it's entirely possible that something may have happened that we as town have not been told about.

Nevermind. A hell of a lot more people have posted than I though. I believe I counted 17 since GMans "You can all yell at each other now" post.

ON was in irc saying he was going until sometime today.

So Kurumi is temp banned, how will this affect our Mafia Game?
Also, good morning.

ON was on IRC around 15 hours ago, but never posted anything, and wasn't really saying much in IRC either. Sent him and JeeJee prompting PMs

hihi.
I do indeed. Waiting on slam500 to defend himself, Forumite just gives me a bad vibe. A little to safe and secure in his posting, not taking a stance on anything.

On August 15 2011 05:52 DropBear wrote:I present to you: THE PLAN!!!![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/omzLG.jpg) Traits are not alignment based so anyone with the following traits should openly claim immediately: - Rivals should claim once Day 1 has started. Rivals are much more likely to be townies than Mafia. Mafia already have their rivals: the town. Not only this, it puts into perspective your motivations in getting specific people killed. If you prove yourself useful and don't fuck things up you will be assisted where possible in achieving your goals. - Short Fuse should claim and never use their power of modkill. If you fail or succeed, deliberately goading people will shit up the thread to no end. Also it makes us seriously consider the lynching of a Short Fuse, the potential of having a VisceraEyes/BC event needs to be known beforehand. - Rabid Fanboy #1. You are essentially a mayor. Do not use this power without first putting it out in the open. We get a replacement if you die anyway so you are not as important as other roles, no need to hide. - Thief. The rapidly increasing chances of being instalynched as roles are stolen means that scum theives would be unlikely to risk stealing a role a second time, 1for1 trades are not good for Mafia. Claim outright so we can work out when and if you use your role. Additionally, all players should claim their roles, traits and alignments to me via PM asap :D VOTINGMultiple lynches should be avoided on the first few days. We can save them until later when we have more information. Especially with the Night 0 start where people will probably die before we can get a lynch off, we can't just start offing large numbers of people straight away if we mislynch we get fucked much quicker. CELLSAre stupid. From what I have read in past games everyone ignores them and chooses to PM whoever they please. I am in favour of communicating with who you want and whoever wants to talk to you, forcing people into an arbitrarily formed cell doesn't make sense when the formation of such groups can easily be biased. Discuss!
Just some flaws ive noticed in the plan while ive been reading:

Dont joke about this shit, claiming day 1 to anyone is a stupid idea. This is just obvious role fishing otherwise.
CELLS
Are stupid. From what I have read in past games everyone ignores them and chooses to PM whoever they please. I am in favour of communicating with who you want and whoever wants to talk to you, forcing people into an arbitrarily formed cell doesn't make sense when the formation of such groups can easily be biased.
While preassigned cells are not worth it, try to PM at least 2 people all game long to bounce ideas off them if them. Being active and promoting dissucssion in IRC works fairly well.
The actual role part of the plan isnt a half bad idea but the issue is you have to find a person to claim too in the first place, and that in and of itself is a risk.
|
discussing claim strategies for roles that may not even be in the game is a waste of time, drop it.
