A) Having a smaller number players in the majority is more advantageous than having a larger number. This should be self-evident, but the smaller the majority, the better chance town has of keeping townies alive and lynching mafia. Foolishless laid it out quite well earlier.


how is it more advantageous again? if people are in risk of being lynched/killed, they're more likely to talk and so it's easier to find mafia...how is more people in round 2 bad???

here, let me ask a question to you radfield. What's the difference between people in the minority and the majority? Minority can't die right? Why would you take away a threat to a player like that? It makes no sense.

If you have a system in place to make it so that round 2 proceeds in an orderly manner then everything works out perfectly. I sent this to WBG already but I'll post it here as well.

for round two, it's based on whoever has the lowest points will be lynched right? so I was thinking of basing it on a gradient system. Most scummy, no points. We then have the rest pass points in a system following the player order.

so lets say it's like 5 people in the majority and 1 person in the minority. that's 25 points. lets say we think a is mafia. so the players are a, b, c, d, e, f

we think f is townie so he's in minority cause we need one. we move onto round 2.

b gives all his points to c, c gives all his points to d, d gives to e, e gives to b. If we all circle then a will have zero points. even if mafia was trying to save a, the two teams members would have to give 6 points total to save him. Because of the circle system, there's no way a can make back the deficient with his 5 points for both his teammates; one of his teammates will be adjacent to someone without 5 votes. That person is also mafia then.

f will be giving his votes, spread as evenly as possible, into the crowd of b, c, d, e. If things look wrong then f is suspicious.

WBG suggested to me that we do it so that everyone only cycles 4 votes and they give their one vote to whomever they want so that accountability would be an element and I agree. There's no way a would be able to get out of this situation unless his teammates out themselves.

oh, and f will be informing everyone of how his votes will land. So we will all have a system that we expect to know where the votes will land + or - 2 points. Mafia needs to try very hard to save a to the point where they would have to out themselves. Even if they do safe, hopefully we can count on a vigi to settle the issue right there and then.

one, you posted that in response to syllo, who wanted palmar to be king. Unless it's just one person in the minority, the plan will fall apart. The more people in the minority group, the more likely the votes will be fucked up because there's more people who aren't in the cycle and that means more chances for votes to not go correctly and we wil lbe unable to account for their votes and figure out a discrepancy if it comes up. not to mention you don't even bring up the idea that people should only give 4 votes to people instead of all 5 that wbg brought up to me. How is that stealing?

Like I said, the only way for town to realistically control round 2 is via the cycle system. anything else from that is going to be really chaotic. And now that there's like 8 people in the minority group, it's going to be really hard to hold them accountable for their votes since we won't know who placed which vote where; they are not part of the cycle. There's going to be 40 extra votes into the cycle that can't be accounted for. It's definitely possible for mafia to save each other if it's going to be like this. This is why we need the minority group to be as little as possible...

I was hoping to push a katina lynch today but I'm willing to settle on a sandro lynch. Townie sandro makes plans. He loves plans, especially trying to make semi-game breaking ones. I figured out of all people, he would be most excited about how to most effectively use the two round mechanic to help town.

On to the cycle:

Prplhz
Cephiro
Sandroba
Viscera Eyes
Mr Wiggles
Meapak_Ziphh
Radfield
Echelon Tee
Liquid`Sheth
Chaoser


I'm going to give 4 of my votes to Prplhz. I hope the rest of you join the cycle as well.

Wait, I want to be walked through why "we're" doing a circle-jerk here. I need to know why people think that it's a good idea, and I need to know what they hope to accomplish with it. I've been reading the thread, so please don't ask me to go read it again. I can assure you, I'm reading it as you read this.

I'm preparing a post on who of the available lynches I do not wish to continue playing with and why. I hope everyone, regardless of how they intend to spend their votes, will do the same. Time is short, and I want to be informed.


You are clearly NOT reading the game if you don't understand why the cycle system is the best way to handle round 2. I already posted about how it works and the ramifications of using it. It allows for accountability and also responsibility for ones votes.

I mean, it looks good with 1 person in the minority - it fails to expand on how to proceed with a minority of like 8 people. All you say on the matter is "See, I told you" which doesn't explain anything chaoser. As far as I'm concerned, with 8 people in the minority, the cycle isn't viable. Am I wrong?


I thought about it and we can try to do a double cycle. I'm not 100% sure if it'll work out since I haven't done all the math for it but basically all the people in the minority follow a cycle as well. So Ace give to Prp and palmar gives to cephiro and so on. But instead of only 4 points they give all 5. This would require a lot of freedom being given up though and knowing the other players, I doubt they'll agree...

Anyway, I have a sneaking suspicion that there will be some sort of reentry into the game for some, so assuming Sand is scum and you guys kill us both, if it's a town-related power, you should bring me back.

I have reads, but I'm holding them hostage until after I flip. Bring me back, and we'll kill all the scums.

They're gooooooooood too.

Anyway, right now I'd lynch into wherebugsgo, chaoser, syllogism.

That's my story. I'll provide reasoning if any of these players are in the majority in Phase B.

My reads are all very weak because I'm basing them on what I perceive to be what is the best for town, which in this game I'm not sure I even know what the best course of action for town is going to be.

That being said, my scumreads are:

Ace, wherebugsgo, Meapak | | chaoser, Katina, EchelonTee

Don't expect reasoning. It's true, all of my votes are on Sandroba. I feel like he's town and scum are pushing easy mislynches.

I apologize to everyone for my apparent lack of concern for this game, but I've earnestly been playing and trying to find scum regardless of what you may perceive in the thread. But several peoples' attitudes this game (Ace and bugs come to mind) have made this game completely not fun for me to play any longer.

Cephiro: 11 - (chaoser 4, Sheth 4, Radfield 2, Meapak 1) <--- By far the most, now think for a moment how many scum were likely in the minority during D1.


Woah dude...you're totally misrepresenting this. I don't know about the others but I PMed you MY reason for giving you 4 votes and it was because I was under the impression we were doing the cycle plan and you were the next name in line and wasn't sandro. It in no way means you're townie because you got the most votes. And for you to make this argument in the first place after I had already told you why my 4 votes are on you is scummy as fuck.

RE: Sandroba
He hasn't been been his plan-happy self from Space Station Mafia even a little bit, and from what people have been saying about him through PMs, he hasn't been disinterested and apathetic. The only other game I have played with him, TL Mafia L, he was pretty lurky as scum, so this lines up. I was waiting for him to respond to how accusations/post reads of his own (as WBG said he would be doing), but it's been a while now.

I would be fine with him as a secondary lynch, but with VE dumping votes on him I don't see how he will die today. If his busy-ness due to Brazillian parties or whatever is genuine, he now has a chance to step up his play.

@chaoser: my opinion of sandroba - voting trends suggest he's town, and in thread he hasn't been significantly more lurky than others, while also hasn't been disruptive. while prplhz has had plenty of time to catch up by now, it's clear sandroba has only had time to be here or there and honestly should've replaced out like Radfield did. will be obvious as hell if he's scum as time goes on, so not at the top of my concern list.

I'm going to hold off on my votes until it's clear how we will get done what we want to get done.


You go from saying you'd be all over sandro if he wasn't active to being only ok with his lynch as a secondary lynch to giving him more time...????
