Wait why should miller claims be autolynched as opposed to just treating them like normal townies?

Yes, but why an auto-lynch? The claim could either be mafia or miller, so why shouldn't you just ignore it and judge them on their actions?

Thanks for explaining anyway. These policy lynches always seemed kind of awkward to me for those reasons.

Super early start anyone?

Anyway, Mocsta:
1) I don't really want to discuss policy lynching since it defeats the purpose, but we as a town need to be hard on lurkers this game. Last game had some painful lurking (from my comfortable obs perspective) and that was a main reason that the town lost. You don't have to spam up the thread all day, but you do need to give your thoughts/reads/comments often.
2) Pretty sure it's 3 mafia. OP doesn't say anything but the other Newbie games with 13 players all had 3 and anything else is just unbalanced.
3) Not sure, shrimp are good though.

@chromatically
hi. Its 7.15 here. Im on bus to work :-)

So. How do u think 3 mafia would go about infiltrating us?

&

Speaking of policies what is your take on lynch all liars?
.

*tips hat*

Basically, townies should not lie and I have no problem lynching anyone who is lying; In a more advanced game, there might be times that lying is acceptable as town, but it is not needed in this game. Townies, don't lie.

What do you mean by "how they would go about infiltrating us"? They're going to act as townie as possible without actually contributing. From experience (XXXI), I wouldn't expect them to offer any controversial opinions because it really is nerve-wracking to be put under suspicion as scum. IMO, end of day votecounts are the best form of evidence against scum.

I like lurking because a lot of the time its hard to know what to say. Obviously it doesn't benefit the town but I don't think it hurts the town that much also. It benefits the scum because it makes it easier for them to blend in but good players should still be able to find the mafia even with lurkers.

I can understand "not knowing what to say", but do you agree that providing your opinions on other players and justifying your vote are necessary?

Also, what timezone are you in?

So are you saying that lurking is more acceptable towards the beginning of the game?

Can you elaborate on when you think that a townie lying will "get a mafia member to lose focus"?

@ Mocsta
With regards to vote counts, I meant more of just looking at the general votecount again, after knowing the lynched player's alignment. For instance, in XXXII, town lynched mafia d1 with only 2 people not voting for him (IIRC). Town should have been able to discern that one of those two was almost certainly scum and win the game from there. If someone ends up flipping town, we can look at who the competing wagon was, who was pushing one lynch over the other, who didn't seem to care about the lynch, etc. and get a lot of useful information.
This is also why the d1 lynch is so hard, of course.

Hey guys, won't be the most active player during day 1, as I have work during the day and tomorrow night I have a work dinner party, but I'll try to be as active as I can when possible (posting this at work - gogo compilation time :D) After that, I should be all free from any obligations whatsoever.

To answer the questions proposed:

1) I still am not sure whether or not lurker kills on day 1 are good, it's a high variance move which I don't necessarily like, but if no one has come off as being scummy, it's better than having an obvious mislynch.

2) I'm sure there will be some sort of pressure voting happening in this game, especially since we don't know how many mafia there are, they could easily start ganging up on one person and it'd be a lot harder to detect than last game where it was guaranteed to be 2 members, it could be fairly high at 3 + even a serial killer who would be willing to lynch anyone since they don't care whatsoever.

3) I don't even know if I have a slight allergy to them, my mouth gets itchy when I eat prawns

Moc:

Low quality post are just filler posts which doesn't really help encourage discussion or which are kind of pointless and can be considered just posting to create noise. The latter is the type I dislike more though, since it becomes a lot harder to catch up on the thread without getting lost and having to backtrack and read again.


@Sylencia

I appreciate that you are busy today. At some stage in the game, all of us will be in the same situation.

For me personally though, this does not make you void from a vote.

For the time being

##fos:Sylencia

I will re-consider once I have read more comments from yourself.

Is there a particular reason you find Syl more suspicious than others who have only posted once?

Looks like I was beaten to the punch on this, but I am pretty suspicious of Corazon right now.

First, he comes in to the thread without answering the questions that everyone else was answering. Corazon, why didn't you answer those questions or at least provide your opinions on policy?

Then, after I ask him specifically some questions, he answered with:

I think it should be handled on a case to case basis when it comes to lurking. Sometimes it helps when someone just sits back and tries to figure things out instead of discussing every point. If it comes towards the end of the game, maybe the lurker needs to come out of the shadows.

However, lying as town is basically team-killing, especially if it gets another townie lynched. However there can be certain circumstances where lying can get a mafia member to lose focus and say something stupid.

Thanks for pressing me for an answer I guess, just curious as to why you needed an answer from me =/

His answers here are very noncommittal and he doesn't take a stand (ex: could argue later that he thinks a scumbuddy's lurking is fine). The bolded line what really struck me as odd, though. He gets pretty defensive over me asking him the same questions that everyone else was answering.

After I keep asking him questions:

When I said "lose focus", I meant as in like trying to come out and saying something that would out them as mafia. I admit that it doesn't sound right when I say it, but of course this is my first time on TL Mafia, and it's all theorycrafting for me.

He is clearly uncomfortable when I ask him to simply clarify what he meant in his earlier post. He also plays the noob card: "hey guys, I don't know anything, I'm just a noob, don't mind me."

He seems generally uncomfortable in the thread with basic questions, something I would expect from a first-time scummer.
