This looks amazing. I'm still reading the rules, I'll let you know if I'm interested :D This is quite the setup.

Okay, this looks awesome. It's not really Mafia in the sense of "informed minority vs uninformed majority" sort of thing, but it's more like... maximally multifactional mafia with interesting night mechanics, politics, and alliances.

I like it.

Hmmmm, I might need to sign up for this.

Questions:

What happens when a player wins? Say there's three players left, A, B, and C. A is allied to both B and C. B and C are not allied to each other. That means player A has 'won'. So, does he just get removed, or does he get to keep playing after he's won, or how does that work?

Can I break the game by having everyone ally with everyone else at the beginning of the game and start some kind of happy commune?


I like the way you're thinking.

It's a pretty standard setup; lynch scum, win. No need to fret about whether it's utterly totally different than every other mafia game

Yeah but it's not about informed minority vs uninformed majority, the core conflict of mafia. This game is only loosely a game of mafia, it's more like... a mafia-esque game. Fun, though! Just not Palmar's bucket of oysters, so to speak.

Lvdr, I'd recommend playing through a newbie game before trying this out, unless you've played forum mafia before. This is a pretty complex and unusual ruleset. That being said, I won't discourage you if you feel like you'll be able to be active, understand the rules, and help provide a fun play experience. Just a heads-up.

I think even with ET we have room for one more. It's been quite the wait but I'm excited. I'd offer cohost but I lost my AoE cd some time ago-- I'll have to stick to playing and enjoying this awesome setup.

My only hint for you is that, you are the person besides me in this game who really appreciates what a great sim game AoE is. If you think about it, a sim game that's unlike civ (with it's capitals, etc) is a great sim. Not a lot of people played it!

I didn't play AoE. I don't know what I'm talking about.

Also if you turn me down, I get it. I'm just sad. Sorry for the triple post, got to go, I don't post much anyways, there's no secret guy, but there is, and I know, and you know, and this should have told you but it didn't...

Well, we could discuss the setup amiably. There's nothing much else to discuss since factions aren't made yet (as far as you know! Secret buddy might have allied me back!). I personally think the lynch is mostly going to be a tool used by multiple alliances and stragglers against whichever alliance is the strongest, or if one player starts to run away with the game. If you think about it, in like a 4-team game where each team has 3 players, if someone starts a wagon on a guy, everyone who's not on his team might as well vote for him.

I don't see any real benefit to a no-lynch. It makes sense to use the lynch to stop the strongest players in terms of night (armies, etc) since all the votes can get behind that, but even if we don't, it's almost always a good idea to use the lynch.

Actually, if hydras could make their sigs like "hydra of john and bob" or whatever that'd be the best.

Also meditteranean is for losers, and i'm not a loser. This is a unique and fun game, and you're gonna walk down the middle of the road like that? way to be l4m3

As well, I wish to communicate that this talk of map selection is most likely simple posturing for advantage. If I were to tell you I would like to play on the island map, one could easily infer that I had the plan of choosing a sea-faring civilization. The same applies to other maps that favour certain civilizations. EchelonTee's last post is simply an example of this. Look at how he makes arguments for why the Mediterranean map would be best for everyone. Then look at his choice of civilization, Saracen.

Why infer and speculate when you can read my post to clearly see my intentions?

Show nested quote +
Therefore, I will be voting for mediterranean. Am I trying to sway votes to a map choice that I would prefer? Of course, I do enjoy winning. But unless you can get a band of people you can trust to form some a wombo combo strat (all seafaring nations in an alliance), it's best for all of us to pick one of the more stable map choices.

You make it seem like I am trying to pull a fast one, when I clearly say in my post why I consider a land/sea map beneficial both to the general public, and to myself. I am not "most likely" posturing for an advantage, I am posturing for an advantage, but hope that others can see how it would benefit them as well.

I feel like this game will play out like "Phantom" in SC2. One random dude will remain hidden for a while and then BOOM, we all dead.


Or, one dude will openly push his objectives in the thread and try to spin it so it looks like it's good for every player. Well, not every player is playing Saracens. I don't think you were being deceptive, but I see no reason to vote for a map that favors any nation but my own and that of my allies. This much seems clear to me.

It looks to me like Tunkeg is trying to build up a big alliance, which is reasonable, but it's not in anyone's interest to enable others to get into a big alliance unless they also can benefit. I could easily see a player who gains a lot of influence (ie is in PMs with 3+ people) trying to swing the votes around to a certain setup, and coordinating communication (with his own censorship and additions) between several people, each of whom thinks they're working in a 3 or 4 man group, but are all actually being left out except for a chosen few. most of them will just end up giving him their votes.

Now, I don't think Tunkeg is canny enough to pull that off, but it's a possibility, and he's setting up for it, so I might as well undermine him. As Kanye would say, no one man should have all that power.

Ok, yes, there is of course a normal motivation for wanting to BE PMed. In fact, it's almost strictly better to be PMed than it is to PM. That doesnt' mean there isn't also a calculating one, the one I mentioned, where you jerk lots of people around who all think they're the chosen 4 to vote in a map and to draft certain civs so you and your 3 favorites can get what they want.

all I'm saying is a guy who holds onto his PM can't be trusted. A guy who wants to recieve lots of PMs could easily be just chillin and wanting a strong alliance, or he could ALSO BE ACTIVELY TRYING TO PREVENT OTHER ONES FROM BEING FORMED.

If everyone PMs you, you can PM like the last guy and then there's no cross communication (between all these people who PMed you). You have control, and not only will you have a good alliance, you also make it so there won't be others. It's easy to say "oh I'm only PMing with 1 guy or 0 guys" in the thread but then bam alliance time is over and you'r ethe only one with a good one cause everyone else is unrecprocated.

It's obvious that what you're doing is indistinguishable from anyone's point of view from shutting down other alliances.

Send your damn PM like a man

I'm not saying you HAVE to be doing it, I'm saying that not PMing is the same as doing it as far as other people can see. You gotta give a little to get a little, you know what I mean?

On the other hand, that's literally what you'd say if all of my suspicions are true, right? I mean, you'd want to keep up the veneer of "not having been PMed" so that more people would PM you. You make a good point in that you're not the most famous player in this game, though.

The purpose of the lynch is for the weaker players to band together and take out anyone who gets too strong.

That's all it's for. We're ALL the informed minorities, and we're all uninformed majorities relative to each other. The lynch isn't about scumhunting, it's about "people your faction can't kill at night" hunting. We don't even have alliances yet, what do you think we should discuss? This isn't "scum vs town", the fact that it's quiet in the thread isn't a problem at all.

>.> we can't even make alliances yet. I'm not telling you who I've PMed or who's PMed me, and you won't get me to. I have nothing to say to you.

You can't even trust anyone you've used your sole PM on, or has PMed you, since for all you know they're jerking you around.

And you certainly can't trust Tunkeg.

But... we're literally not in the phase where you can make alliances. Are you even playing this game? Did you read the rules? You're doing a good job of trying to convince me you're not in charge of a big group, but the newb card can only be played so much before it looks suspicious.

Like to be 100% clear: Always lynch during the day whoever was strongest at night in terms of army, resources allies etc, assuming he's not in your alliance... this was clear to me just from reading the setup. If I turn out to be the strongest player in a strong alliance, I have no doubt I'll get lynched. Is anyone confused about this? Tunkeg doesn't seem to understand that the fact that I'm a skilled town player has nothing to do with anything in this game. All that matters is Alliances and your power, and optimal lynches will be on players who are strong during the night phase.

Whether or not people like each other is irrelevant, though. I dislike literally everyone. You've played with me.

This whole idea of "reputations" is BS. You get a strong group by demonstrating your value. I've played AoE before, and I have an idea of what units are good. I posted that in the thread, hoping to attract PMs and hoping that whoever I PMed would think me valuable and not double-cross me.

Now, why would you play the "nobody likes me" card? Because you clearly want to APPEAR that you're in a weak group. Maybe that's because you are, in fact, going to be in a weak group. Maybe nobody PMed you, and the guy you PMed told you to screw off. But I don't think that's the case. I think you've been active in the thread and naturally attracted PMs.

What I'm interested in seeing is what happens once the alliance phase begins and people have actual teams, because that's when the real game starts. Maybe then I'll be in a strong alliance, or maybe I'll be in a weak one, or even alone if I'm screwed over. I'd like to think I can make some sort of case that I'm in a weak alliance, but saying "wahh nobody likes me" is not a case for you being in a weak alliance. There aren't even alliances yet.

In any case, I don't see any reason to talk with you any more. If you think MrZ, ET, and I are all out to get you, that's fine. I think you're just trying to look bad so you don't get lynched.

Sure they can. But my point is that the players that haven't posted should start posting.

Good times. As an aside, anyone who thinks Tunkeg and I are working together and distancing is unbelievably wrong, we'd have done it way better than this.

Well, I knew *I* wasn't gonna get tricked, so I saw no reason to stop this particular deception of yours. Unless you're being sarcastic, in which case "yes, you are a great player"

Oh, you know, pretty good. I'm particularly glad not to be in Bill Murray's position (unless he's just trolling desperate people, in which case he's a baller). Waiting to see who my alliance is. Probably gonna say it's a small alliance regardless of its size. Been playing some D&D.

How bout you?

I can't come back... not any more. If this had been a year ago , or even a few months ago, maybe...

But things change MrZ. I couldn't wait for you forever. I had to go find my own happiness.

I'm sorry. I wish things were different.

I really do.

Typical excuse trying to look like you don't got your shit together

You really want us to believe that both of you weren't moving heaven and earth to get a great alliance? Yeah right you care about mafia. I literally don't believe anyone who tries to feed me this crapgage (crap garbage) including tunkeg and bill murray. You guys aren't fooling anyone least of all me.

kokso I've thought about it, and I'm against a BM lynch. I know I was for it a few minutes ago, but check this: near the end of n0, BM is struggling and sends out a call for an alliance, any alliance. I intially interpretted this as typical tunkeg-style crybaby play to avoid a D1 lynch, but it's kinda different because it's so blatant. if BM really was in a power alliance and made that request, what if someone took him up on it and he couldn't add them? He'd immediately be outed as a power player, or alternatively, a pawn in a power player's game. It's not a risk he'd take.

I think that's the big difference here between some guys like BM / some lurkers and Tunkeg. Tunkeg has done an incredible amount of complaining in thread, but he's also been active as hell. Don't you believe for one second that Tunkeg ISN'T in a strong alliance. I think that he's feeling the pressure, and now that he has his alliance QT, he's called out his alliance-buddies to come and bus him. How interesting how many people are willing to prod him but not vote him?

I suppose everyone saw this coming a few days away, but Tunkeg is a threat. He's a deceptive mofo and needs to not be alive. I don't know who's who in terms of alliances yet, but I do know a dangerous guy who's setting up for a long game when I see one. Tunkeg has been jerking us around all game.

##vote: Tunkeg

If there was any equivalent of scum in this game, it'd be him. Evaluate the situation of you and your allies (if any) and realize he's the best lynch. Of course his ally-buddies will defend him, but we are many and they are 4, tops.

I use QTs for 2 player PM communication to make it easy to read and avoid getting cluttered. I guess it wouldn't be allowed if you had more than one ally, nice slip there buddy.

Tunkeg I've never seen you play scum, and I don't remember you playing town, but I do know this whole game you've been setting up to avoid getting lynched. That's what I'm saying. I personally believe myself to be in a strong, solid alliance, but I can't be sure I'm not in the strongest one, and honestly I have no way of knowing what you're in.

The fact of the matter is, your constant complaining about your popularity since the moment the game starts isn't just annoying... it's suspicious. It's a big set-up. You think people are gonna buy it, but they won't. I don't think you're scummy, because I don't think there's scum. THIS GAME HAS NO SCUM. I do think you're trying to portray yourself falsely, and I think all you do is increase the amount of pressure on yourself with these flailings.

All my motives are clear: I want to win the game, and I consider you a threat. A dangerous, deceptive threat. I'll continue to argue this so that I can get other people, who are interesting in winning for themselves, to also vote for you. I believe it is optimal play.

Yeah, I can't see no one wanting to be in an alliance with one of the players hailed as most improved numerous times. If you aren't in a good alliance then I am the queen of england.


You're right that there were people who contacted us wanting to ally. A lot of stuff was left to me for the opening phase and between a small miscommunication between heads and some DayZ and a volleyball camp I didn't know I'd have to help run... something bad happened.


So for now lets just assume that I buy into this. Who would you want to lynch to day and why? If you are truly alone it should be no problem answering as you really can't go wrong.


This is Risen. Your question shows that you don't know my past, which is fine. My vote is going to be on BM until he dies. Since I'm a hydra I'll have to wait and see what the other head wants, but I think he wouldn't mind a d1 BM lynch.


I have played with you once I think and that was in TL Mafia LI (and maybe Arkham City), so I don't know all that much about you. But why would me knowing your past be relevant to those questions. Why do you want BM lynched? Give me some reasons, don't just put it out there.


Your bussing attempts here are cute

I think you slipped by saying you are using QT, I see no reason to use it for 2 persons.


However, as you also noted it's not legal to use it for more than 2 persons.

So you think I am setting myself up to not be lynched by being the most active in thread? Really? I want to win this game just as much as you, and I want to be in it as long as possible. I think the only chance I have of winning this game is by going after the strongest players. It will also put me out there for you to target, but I won't play this game by lurking and not pushing what I think is best for me.


That's funny because I'm pretty sure that all the pretending you're not in a strong alliance was an attempt to NOT get targeted, but hey. Anyone who's in a really strong alliance doesn't care about the day phase anyways, since they'll just be zerging someone at night and trying to dodge the lynch during the day-- so you respond by playing actively and complaining about how you're all alone, to separate yourself from your allies.

Keep up the good work. Tunkeg Marvelbabbyyy clearly allies

Also if we were in an alliance, I'd tell Tunkeg to stop whining in the thread about his lack of an alliance, since it's obvious he'd be in an awesome alliance with Blazinghand, AKA "Blazinghand the Awesome"

so just dismiss the idea out of your mind

Ok clearly we're in a power alliance and bussing, so you should vote tunkeg then? Like I see two possibilties here

1) BH and Tunkeg are driving a shitty bus: ok, Tunkeg is in a power alliance because any alliance with BH is power alliance. Lynch Tunkeg
2) BH and Tunkeg are not driving a shitty bus: ok, BH is right, lynch Tunkeg

You literally didn't read the post you quoted, did you. The point is you're trying super hard to look like you're in a weak alliance. I get why MrZ is suspicious of us cause everything you say sounds fake and bad.

I strongly disagree. It is in fact you who intentionally misunderstands what I write-- I am a nuanced person, and you go "herp derp contradictions" and are either unable to understand my arguments are are willfully blind to them. Your attempts to act too generally incapable to perform the deceptions I accuse you of are noted.

Yeah, I understand thats the impression you got from me, and so be it. If the rest of the thread feels the same way and equally believes me to be a threat I'll get lynched. But your reasons for wanting to lynch me are full of contradictions all over the place. You want to lynch me because I am strong, weak, deceiving, easy to figure out, in a powerfull alliance, not in a powerfull alliance...

I say you should be considered as a lynch candidate because it is very very likely that you are in a strong alliance, period. If people don't get my logic I deserve to be lynched.


You just quote random stuff I say and say "look he contradicts himself" when you clearly are just bad or trying to be bad in terms of understanding what i'm saying

at least when I called you out for bag logic you owned up to it. damn dude.

All this being said, I do agree with Rastaban that the silence of many players is trouble. Someone with several alliances going on would probably be fine just hanging out and not talking in the thread (as I mentioned earlier), and so we can expect the thread currently to be populated mostly by people who don't have good alliances and people who have good alliances who are trying to look like people who have bad alliances. What's interesting is that this means all the lurkers are either legit afk OR, and this is more likely, in good alliances. If you weren't in an alliance you'd be 100% flailing around here in the thread with us.

I'm willing to entertain a lynch of a lurker on the grounds it's likely to hit someone in a strong alliance.

I say you contradict youself in that post yes. And you do. because you say that a player in a strong alliance wouldn't care about the day phase. And then you resume with me obviously doing the opposite to distance myself from my allies. So in general you say a player who is in a strong alliance wouldn't bother posting during the day, but when I am posting during the day phase it is obviosuly because I know this and I am just leveling the whole thread, but then you know this and are leveling me again. It is such a weak and shitty arguement, and contradicting itself, YES!

You are like one of those morons who think shouting louder in an arguements will help them win the arguement regardless of what they are saying.


You can CALL me a moron, but my arguments stand for themselves, and your equivocations and fallacies are so transparent as to seem fake. There's a REASON people think you're faking your argument with me, and perhaps some critical self-examination is in order.

Let me make things absolutely clear re: what's happening right now:

1) players in strong alliances are lurking
2) some players in strong alliances, and some players in weak alliances, are talking

If you have multiple allies, then #1 is probably a pretty decent play. But if all your buddies are doing it, someone should at least do #2, right?

Alternatively, you're Tunkeg and have been trying to get town-cred by calling blazing out long before alliances even began to get formed, because you're mad about... I don't actually know what you're mad about, it makes no sense.

So basically you're in a strong alliance.

My goals for today: Lynch someone who is in strong alliance chains, like Tunkeg, or a lurker.

Other goals: make tunkeg stop talking lol

And we both are doing what you think is the exact same thing. WoW you must think we are the biggest morons in the world. But then we aren't because we are smart and tricky. You are something out of the ordinary.

You don't think being reknowned makes it easier to get into an alliance? Are you for real? Of course the only thing that matters is who is in big alliances, but I am saying it is more likely that you are in one then me. I have said this before and I will say it again. After the fucking game is over we can ask the players of this game who they would rather team up with just to prove my point.


You argument: "Blazinghand is more famous than me blah blah"
My argument: all the stuff you've been saying and doing all game

I think it's pretty clear what's going on here, and you calling yourself a moron is like wut

Look, your so-called "case" against me (one behind which you still haven't voted, because you don't want it to look like OMGUS) is based just literally on the fact that I'm Blazinghand. You've got some horrible misanalysises of some of my posts, but basically that's it.

Mine is based on stern logic and your actions this game. That's all. You're playing like a guy who REALLY REALLY wants to appearto be in a weak alliance. Which is how most people feel, but you're hamming it up so hard, it's obvious what you're covering up several allies. I bet they're all shitting themselves about how much exposure you've drawn. Maybe like Marv they plan on supporting you. Maybe they'll bus you. But they'll all be weaker once you're dead, and the goal of the lynch is to deal with the strongest alliance in the game. I'm here to hunt, not base things on weird vendettas against well-liked players or whatever.

Uh yeah obviously I'm in a good alliance, I'm a good player of this game. I doubt I'm in the strongest one, but I daresay I played pretty well prior to D1. Why, are you still sticking to your "I'm in a shit alliance" story?

LOL if my logic were really faulty people will point it out without your help. The sad truth is that it is in fact your logic that is faulty, and intentionally so. The name-calling is no good.

Come, friends, Tunkeg is clearly in a strong alliance, and he's also not on your team (probably), so why not kill him? If you can make a good argument that some lurker is better, go ahead, but honestly this seems pretty open and shut to me.

Uh yeah obviously I'm in a good alliance, I'm a good player of this game. I doubt I'm in the strongest one, but I daresay I played pretty well prior to D1. Why, are you still sticking to your "I'm in a shit alliance" story?


I don't think I have mentioned anything about my alliances since day one, when I didn't receive a pm before I sent out mine and went to bed. But you have a strange way of reading my post, so you might have interpid me that way.


Dude you're constantly saying you're an unpopular player, and that all the popular players have good alliances. Are you seriously saying you haven't said anything about your own alliances when that's like all you talk about?

And you CLAIM you didn't recieve a PM, but I don't believe you, not one bit.

BM's reasoning may be incorrect but the ends justify the means. Vote Tunkeg! Clearly he and I are power-allied to each other! yes!

You're not earning any credits with me Marvel. I think s0lstice' case is on its face reasonable, but on the other hand, I don't see what's wrong with me claiming to be in a strong position. I'll come out and say it: I actually have two allies. I'm in a strong position.

Depending on who dies today and tonight, that could easily change.

That being said, I'm a mafia regular. I have friends etc who will probably look my way. I'm a charismatic guy, and well-liked. I'm popular with the ladies and basically people want to be me. I make a lot of money and have a cute girlfriend. The point is, I'm not jerking you guys around, and honestly I don't think I'd be able to. Anyone who plays with me regularly knows I'm really bad at lying and playing scum. Astonishingly bad. Like, I can't coach newbie scum games because that's how bad I am.

So I'm being honest, and I don't think I'm in the strongest alliance. I think that town will probably lynch me tomorrow after we lynch Tunkeg, but that doesn't bother me too much-- I want to help out my buddies as much as possible, since if they win, I win. And right now, that means attacking during the day whoever is stronger than me. That's Tunkeg.

Maybe you don't like my style and my openness, but I guarantee you 100% if I weren't pressuring and talking I'd be lynched already.

Most of you aren't in Tunkeg's group with s0lstice and Marvel. I want you to think to yourself about lynching Tunkeg. He's two-faced, he's been talking out both sides of his mouth and lying. I'm an honest guy, and I've stated my motives plainly. Do you really think Tunkeg has 0-1 allies? There's probably only a couple people in this game like that, and honestly Tunkeg isn't one of them. Bill Murray might be, and Sinensis MIGHT be, but not Tunkeg. Look at the posting as the alliance phase draws to a close. Most of us have ~2 allies (since on average you'll be PMing with 2 people), and a few have 0-1 allies and a few have 3 I suppose, lined up.

Tunkeg has stopped flailing around and asking for PMs. he's hasn't tried to make an alliance in-thread. He's calmly arguing with me and Sent about Vikings. That's it. These actions are not motivated by a guy who is in a small alliance. The motives for acting like this is that you're comfortable. A Tunkeg who was really cornered would have been flailing for an alliance, any alliance, at the end of the phase.

But he wasn't.

Of course, once the day starts Tunkeg immediately tries to "scumhunt" or what have you, and to his credit this is somewhat convincing at first. But the more he argues, the more it becomes clear this is someone who is lying, who has something to hide, and who isn't doing a terribly good job of it.

Tunkeg needs to be lynched. S0lstice may not be his ally-buddy, he might just be a sucker-- we'll have to see.

BM and I go way back, like cheese and ranch dressing-- made to be put on seafood together

I'm pretty sure Tunkeg is screwing with us. All joking aside, there's no way he'd be so calm at the end of the alliance phase given how freaked-out he was earlier unless he was seriously feeling pretty comfortable with his setup. This isn't even a meta thing, this is just comparing "Tunkeg during start of PMs phase" to "Tunkeg at the end of alliance phase" and there's a huge difference. He's pulling all the strings around here

this distincting between a large number of allies and a strong alliance is false. larger is literally better, because it means in the night phase you can do bigger combined attacks. If you think I'm in a small but "strong" alliance, that's fine, and if you think that Tunkeg is in a big but "weak" alliance, that's also fine, but if you think both those things AND think that I'm a bigger threat than Tunkeg during the nightphase, your premise doesn't follow your conclusion. I definitely think I'm a bigger threat than he is during the dayphase, but I've done my best to be open and honest and to mitigate that-- I'm almost certainly getting lynched tomorrow. And no matter how much you say it, you KNOW that if tunkeg lives through today, he'll weasel his way out of things tomorrow. That's the kind of guy he is.

In any case, stop drawing a distinction where there's no difference. There's like no reason to break an alliance except in the late late game, so now that the alliances are set in stone your allies are basically trustworthy. Tunkeg's swarm of allies is easily stronger than my 2 allies, but once he's dead, they won't be. I want him dead, and honestly, unless you think your group is stronger than his, you want him dead to. Vote in your own self-interest. Vote tunkeg.

Plus, all you guys who think having 2 allies is like the best thing are full of crap. On average, each person sent one PM and received one PM, putting them in contact with 2 people. Barring some supreme incompetence or unluck (or, of course, treachery) most players should have 2 allies. Some players will have 1 ally. Some will have 3.

# of allies is so important it's unreal. Any AoK battle is basically determined by who has more stuff barring big compositional or terrain elements, which there won't be much of. Tunkeg has more allies than me, so I can't kill him at night. My only hope is to get him lynched.

It's probably your only hope, too.

Man, of course I'm in a strong alliance. I'm freaking Blazinghand, literally the most experienced player in all of TL Mafia. At the dawn of time, when the world was yet unborn and gods roved through the cosmos, it was I who molded Qatol out of the stellar mud, and I who formed Incog from the stardust that gathered throughout the galaxy.

The reason I'm trying to lynch Tunkeg is I literally don't think I'll be able to kill him with my allies. And do you think anyone will trust each other enough to gang up on him with people not in their alliance? It'd be a fun trick to convince other people to attack Tunkeg then bail and let them get owned.

Dude, it's TOTALLY different. Attacking uses vital resources, risks losing units, and is anonymous and you don't know if your army will die or if you'll get betrayed or attacked while you're out. Doing it against a strong alliance is dumb.

The Lynch is much safer, and is what should be used against big alliances. attacks are for fighting people weaker than you.

Look if I really thought I was stronger than Tunkeg I wouldn't be trying to lynch him, I'd just wait until night and kill him because I could. I really really don't think my allies have a chance of killing Tunkeg at night, and honestly I have ZERO confidence that some sort of non-allied coalition will take him and his buddies down. Think about it, you know it's true.

Also obviously if you lynch me, my allies definitely won't be able to kill Tunkeg. They won't be able to win in my stead, and his hordes will overrun everyone and we'll die etc etc. So there is that, too.

If you lynch Tunkeg D1, me and my allies will be stronger and more likely to do what we want to do N1. If you lynch me D1 my alliance is shattered.

From your point of view, there isn't a huge amount of difference, except that Tunkeg is likely in a larger alliance, as you mentioned, and that's more dangerous. Even if you lynch him tonight, his buddies might be together and decently strong, but not overwhelming. Alliance size is the most important factor, and so you should lynch out of the largest alliance first.

Also, Tunkeg has been playing to avoid suspicion and appear weak. And for what it's worth, he's done a better job of it than me, though I haven't really been trying to appear weak. But my #1 goal is to get him lynched, and to get him lynched before his enormous alliance can take night actions, against you or against me or against anyone else. He's a tricky dude, and honestly people seem to actually believe his tripe (well, some people. could just be his ally-buddies so far). I think that without me to push him, he won't get lynched. That's basically it. You can say what you want about me, but say this: if I have one skill, it's getting money. And if I have two skills, it's getting money and tunneling someone.

Look at this push on Tunkeg and tell me that you can get him lynched without my fanaticism. Tell me that honestly, and if you really think that, AND you want to lynch the less tricky guy in the smaller alliance first, I think you need to play more intelligently. Tunkeg is the real threat here.

No, no that's a terrible idea and you're bad for suggesting it. It's in your interest to lynch both of us, not neither of us, and it's in your interest to lynch tunkeg first since he's slimier and his alliance is bigger and more dangerous.

"tunk doesn't seem to be making any friends" are you kidding me? This guy with no friends just pulled like 4 votes out of his ass and plopped them on me, most of them just saying "herp derp blazinghand in strong alliance"

the fact of the matter is, this game probably has 2-3 strong alliances and some stragglers. Tunkeg's is the strongest and we can't afford not to lynch him first.

People voting me try hard not to look like "friends" with tunkeg, but they almost certainly are.

The fact of the matter is, most people in this game have 2 allies, even if everyone in the thread likes to go around pretending they're alone or have 1 ally or whatever. That's just the way the game works out with the PM setup. I'm certainly in a comfortable alliance, but all you guys voting me need to realize: most people in this game have about the same number of allies as me. Just because I'm willing to say it doesn't mean I'm a mastermind of some huge alliance: that's not me, that's tunkeg.

My goal is to lynch someone who I'm absolutely sure I can't just kill tonight. And that's tunkeg. I honestly think his group will send out a couple of attacks, clean up a couple more dudes overnight, and then bam we're down to like 9 players, 4 of whom are Tunkeg & co. And if there's infighting amongst the smaller factions, and someone kilsl someone else? then it's 8 players, 4 of whom are Tunkeg and co.

All I'm saying is, lynch tunkeg first. You want to lynch me tomorrow? fine! but for your own good, and the good of my allies and myself, let's kill tunkeg now.

Ok so clearly nobody has thought this game through very well, as evidenced by the most recent post against me. I'll explain with a little bit of game theory. Let's say you have a group of 2 people, and you're up against another group of 2 people. You have two options: Combined Attack, Combined Defence, and Nothing. 2 armies will beat one army and kill the player behind it, but can be stopped by 2 armies.

If you do Nothing and the other team does a Combined Attack, you lose an ally or you die. Game over. If you do nothing and the other team does nothing, nothing happens.
If you do a Combined Attack and the other team does a Combined attack, 2 players die, it's even. If you do a Combined Attack and the other team does nothing, you kill an enemy.
It's impossible to be safe in this game. This isn't Black Forest where you can mass troops on your "border ally". This is a game where people WILL die to combined assaults, and you can't do anything to stop it. The only thing you can do is play smart.

So Tunkeg's alliance is already completely outed. If this is the case then "our" alliance is completely harmless right? You can vote us off any time you want any day if we get "powerful and destroy everything in our path using the power of the Norse God Tunkeg!" like you say.

If this is the case, then there is little sense in lynching someone belonging to a "weak" (is already outed) alliance on D1.
So, by your own statements we can conclude you should be lynched instead


...there are 5 votes against me you know.

Look, the optimal play in this game is to mass up troops, for a combined attack. If 2 players attack you, and you trade armies with the first one, you have NO ARMY. This means that the second attack AUTO KILLS YOU. You are removed from the game. This is so damn strong it's unbelievable.

Also, Prisoner's Dilemma is nothing new and innovating.
You can try all you can to use it on your favor but you can't.

Just like if this were a game of Chicken.


It's not a prisoner's dillemma, it's a "hey it's always better to attack" dilemma, and it FAVORS GROUPS WITH MORE PEOPLE. Groups like tunkeg's group.

Why isn't tunkeg afraid the night phase? Why? Because he's at home there. He just wants to get there alive so he can feast on your soul.

omg pay attention

They are vulnerable ANYWAYS. If you have 1 army, and you're attacked by 2 armies, even if you fend off the first one, the second one shows up and you AUTO LOSE.

Read the OP.

There's NO DOWNSIDE to attacking other than potentially losing your army during the attack.

if people attack with half their troops, then sending out all your troops OR defending with all your troops is BY FAR a better option. You've played AoK, right? In big-number fights, if one side outnumbers the other it's a brutal slaughter.

In fact, attacking with half your troops is a shit idea cause it's just throwing away half your troops agaisnt anyone who full defends, and throwing away the other half if anyone full attacks you.

Off-topic? It's not off-topic at all. We're talking about optimal play. Your army is probably not double the size of anyone's army, ... but you can certainly do that via attacks if your alliance is 4 people!

You're just getting nervous because I'm revealing the truth, the truth about this game and about night actionss.

the truth we need to kill tunkeg

Tunkeg "not being desperate last day" and "making it seem he didn't got a PM" aren't conclusive evidence he's in a 4-man alliance, not even a 3-man one (remember he acted all "everybody hates me" before alliances were even made).



But that's hte point! Remember how he acted all "everybody hates me"? REMEMBER THAT? this was at the start of the PM phase. By the end of the alliance phase HE WAS TOTALLY CHILL. That's a MASSIVE CHANGE. MASSIVE. He was arguing about other crap instead of PMs. It wasn't on his mind, he wasn't freaking out, he was fine.

What else coupld possibly explain his huge shift in attitude? He obviously developed a PM network and relaxed.

Okay then, Tunkeg is allied with just 1 other guy then (he would still be chill in that case, specially if nobody else PMed him previously)

Tunkeg->2 man alliance
Blazinghand->3 man alliance

Is this right then?
Why can't Tunkeg be allied with just 1 guy? I don't want to lynch a guy allied to just 1 guy if it means guys in stronger alliances are running free.


Okay, maybe, but that guy probably has a buddy! that he PMed! And bam instantly you have a 3-person cricular alliance assuming the guy coordinates it.

It's SO EASY to make a 2-person alliance in this game, since everyone has a PM. And honestly, if Tunkeg were in a 1-person alliance he'd still show SOME effort to try to draw PMs, not LITERALLY NO EFFORT. He was in the thread and just talking about other shit, after the huge whirlwind of whining earlyer.

do you really think he's got 1 ally only? It's certainly possible. And again, I might have 2 allies, but that's not even the strongest way of running things.

but I think that tunkeg's actions indicate that he's part of a strong alliance. I think he's been dishonest, and anyone who's afraid of a guy who has 2 allies is jumping to kill off a weaker group instead of a stronger one! There's a better lynch today.

##Vote: Blazinghand


I'm sorry you come out of the blue and vote with no support/attack of any actual player, and then complain that the people voting on Tunkeg have no support/attack on other players?

That doesn't add up at all.


It doesn't matter, nobody has any reasoning for any of their votes, yourself included, because nobody seems to care who gets lynched. There are 4 groups of people in here:

1) people who are in tunkeg's camp and voting me and make up crap reasons
2) people who are in my camp and voting tunkeg and make up crap reasons
3) people who have crap reasons and are voting for either tunkeg or me
4) other

Look, if you're not in either camp, just think about it LOGICALLY. Tunkeg is the bigger threat. His allies are obfuscating the truth about how the night phase works. Lynch me tomorrow. Please lynch me tomorrow and not today, and lynch tunkeg now. I want my allies to have a chance to win, and if we don't lynch tunkeg, he'll be unstoppable.

like, i get it if you don't think you should care which one of us gets lynched, but you really really should lynch tunkeg first. Nobody has a chance to win if he can run away with this game. Don't let his allies fool you with their talk of "this isn't a prisoner's dilemma" and "people won't attack". Read the night phase rules. We have to stop the strongest group, or they'll dominate really hard. There's a reason there's a lynch in this game, and it's to balance out the OP groups.

We are lynching both of you, is that ok?


It's infinitely preferable to just lynching me. I approve, but only if it's impossible to only lynch tunkeg.

just in case Tunkeg has a confederate standing by for a last minute unvote of him and revote of me, could you possibly hang out at the deadline, rasta, and make sure?

As an aside, Rasta is like 75% certain to be one of tunkeg's allies.

yeah, I will be watching how things go down.


I find this acceptable. however, I would also like it if someone besides rastaban who has a vote on me and plans on lynching tunkeg could also be standing by.

I say this because I suspect most of the votes against me are Tunkeg supporters, and there's a strong chance rastaban is one of them, especially given his initial extremely shoddy justification for his vote on me.

I want tunkeg lynched today.

Well, everything seems to be looking ok. Let's just make sure nothing weird happens between now and deadline, eh? If sinensis shows up he should throw his vote on Tunkeg or not vote at all.

I don't suppose anyone is around who wants to listen to a final hour plea on why we need to kill tunkeg and not me this turn?

I have no advice to give you guys, though I've left a message for each of my allies. Typically as a townie if I'd get lynched I'd try to be helpful or give reads, but that's not this kind of game. It was fun while it lasted, though.

So, if you're reading this, and you're not my buddy: I hereby declare you a HAT-STITCHER of the highest degree, with everything that entails. May your alliances crumble, your walls falter, your men desert, and your crops rot in their fields! May the wrath of a thousand angry Marauders concuss you! May your wives weep and your children perish! May your pant zipper get caught and embarrassingly require you to walk around with your fly unzipped!

A thousand curses on all who oppose me! Let them suffer! Let them perish! Let their suffering be exquisite!





Thanks to WBG, austimcc, and hassybaby for making this all possible.

Thanks for the great run, Bugs.

And really, huge shoutout to both Sent and Marv/Risen for some clutch, clutch plays after I died.

We wasted our PM to ally you and that's how you treated us?


Oh, heh, our 4-P alliance was set up early in the PM phase. Marv/Risen PMed me, I PMed Sent, and Atki PMed Marv/Risen. We got Sent to PM Atki, and went around the circle both ways to confirm nobody was lying. When we got the PM from ET, we decided the best thing to do was just say "yeah sorry bro doosk"

FWIW the D1 lynch was AMAZING for "town" if you define town as the 5 players not allied with either you or me. I couldn't imagine a better result than hitting both of the 4-man alliances at once for the third of the players who weren't in the two 4-mans.

Day 1 was poor as hell from "town", the only reason it worked out for town was because I happend to be in an alliance, you said it yourself in pm after, the reason you went after me was because I was an easy target, not because you were convinced I was strong, you dominated me in the arguements and manipulated the neutrals with ease. In other words they got lucky. If we played this game 100 times I would be unallied more often than not. If I weren't allied I would have been lynched alone and you guys would have won it even easier.


I still don't buy your "nobody likes me therefore nobody allies me" thing. Only one person event sent me a PM dude

Me and my allies got one pm each, meaning if I had not set up the chain as I did we probably would have gotten none. I still believe the more reknowned players will be more likely to be in a good alliance, and they are also more likely to be able to manipulate the rest. Its all relative though, with a different group of players others might be consider stronger.


Me and my allies got one pm each, meaning if I had not set up the chain as I did, looping it around, we'd be in the same boat.
