Here is a link to the standard eula thing. This game follows most of the rules in this one.
General information that is unique to Palmar games:
Questions: All questions should be PMd to the moderator. You are not allowed to say in thread you’re going to ask the moderator something, and you are not allowed to share your answer with the thread. If the question is a clarification all town needs to know, I will simply post an announcement in the thread.
Do not ask questions in the thread once the game has started.
Activity: There are no activity requirements.
Spam: Strategical spam within reason is fine. Don’t be an idiot with it.
Play to win. This means you play your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. However, this does not mean that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing.
This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason without a ban. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game.
Threatening to ask to be replaced or even simply announcing it is a modkillable offense. Just PM the mod
PMs PMs are allowed in this game.
Time Cycle: The night will be close to 24 hours. However, the day will last until a lynch is reached. There is no hard deadline, although I will most certainly implement one if the days start stretching far beyond 72 hours-ish. Yes, this is a very new thing to TL mafia.
If a hammer is delivered, please show some respect and stop posting until a moderator sees the lynch and flips the victim. Also, I will be requesting bans for talking/giving information after you are hammered dead

Yes, if the medic protects the Yakuza, the Yakuza will not die, however the target will still be turned mafia.

The person being turned retains his role. However his win condition changes. This means that both Jester and Lyncher effectively become Goons.

The shrink needs to target the person the Yakuza is targeting. Targeting the Yakuza himself will not do anything. I should probably note that the Shrink is allowed to protect himself.

When the first player reaches his win condition the game will end. However if that win condition results in simultaneous victories for other parties, it is considered a joint win.
For example in a 2v1 situation, the jester is lynched means that he has reached his win condition. But the mafia will share the win because they just hit 1v1 with the lynch.

Yes, the Yakuza can kill and convert in the same night.

Yes the PGO turns mafia and the Yakuza ends up dead.
This looks awesome, probably won't join cause of LVII even though I want to.
A question: Can the medic save the yakuza from killing himself, if so does he still turn someone into mafia?

Yes, the yakuza's sacrifice counts as 1 KP delivered unto himself. (Fun fact, if there was a watcher in the game watching the Yak, he'd see the Yak visiting up to three targets. The night kill, the sacrifice target, and himself).

I have no clue what the order is. and no, the scum literally can't shoot the pgo.
assume no lynch day 1, yak yaks the doc night 1, doc protects yak, and yak scumkills the lyncher.
now it's yak+doc on scum and fool+shrink+pgo on town. Assume for god knows what reason there is another no lynch. If the doctor delivers a kill on the PGO that night, he will die and the PGO will live.

Wait, so does the yak die if he targets the pgo? Cause it sounds like he doesn't, but a converted mafia would?
Also, does the yakkity still die if the convert target is shrink'd?

oh wait just to get this right, so he dies because he takes 2 KP while only being protected from 1? 1 protection from medic, 1 KP from selfdestruction, 1KP from PGO?

I'll defer to Palmar, but it doesn't sound to me like he met his wincon D: The game must go on!
Also, there is a way that everyone in the game can win at the same time. Never gonna happen, but if it does, I'll be damn impressed.

well yeah, obviously in both scenarios both the jester or the lyncher have not met their wincon and therefore lost but will the Lyncher be removed from the game if that happens or does he get to be Kingmaker (I despise those Kingmaker scenarios).
And about the first.. well yeah not quite. Mafia can still lose due to being to slow but other than that they're pretty much unstoppable :p
This is the final player list. I will be starting whenever I feel like, since there are no hard deadlines. If you have any questions try to bring them up in the next hours.
I would advise you guys to really think hard about what you do this game. This is a very complicated setup and your win condition can change.
Remember this is also a PM game, so be careful of people trying to impersonate other people.

Well that depends on what tactic the doctor takes. He can try to protect whoever he thinks the yak will kill, but he could also try to reach out to the yak and protect the yak in exchange for being turned mafia. That way they can almost guarantee a win together on day 2.
This really is every man for himself mafia, the players involved need to think how they can win the game, not how anyone else can win.
What happens in case of a stalemate, like say the doctor and yak meet and the nk goes through so it's 4 people left, but the other two people realize that they have so there will never be a majority. Will the host decide on a no-lynch? (since scum can kill themselves on PGO)

If yak turns the medic, he can just request protection from his new scumbuddy and shoot at anybody. Worst case, nobody dies. No-lynch or lynch, doesn't matter, just keep shooting until somebody drops.

edit: nevermind my bad it's only for jester and lyncher
Question: Can this setup be broken via a massclaim?
Like...everybody massclaims, then the Shrink tells the Medic (or potential medic cc's) to protect him every night, while they lynch into the cc's for the Yakuza or something like that.
So even if the scum was claimed, the jester + lyncher need to not vote him if they want to win. If all 3 blues claim, it's still impossible to lynch, unless the town votes the jester and he self-votes for a win. Either way, town gets nothing. I don't think massclaiming everything is a good idea, but I'm sure claims upon claims will happen eventually, lol €: and not necessarily in thread
But there WILL be cc's. The scum won't know which cc is true and which one will be Jester+Lyncher, the Jester won't know which cc is true and which one is Scum+Lyncher, and same with the Lyncher.
Even if all 3 town blues are "confirmed town" (somehow) after the massclaim, the 3 anti-town roles won't know (by the claims alone) who is who. Maybe that can make it so town can lynch scum, or maybe the Lyncher and lynch scum the next day or something?
There may also be a "hidden" strategy, that has to do with directing night actions from the blues in a way so that town can 100% win

I don't understand the scenario.
Are you assuming town lynches day 1, and then yak turns the doc (and gets protected) and night kills for example the lyncher?

edit: nevermind my bad it's only for jester and lyncher
To be clear there is a difference between role and win condition. Yakuza only changes win condition.
a fool has no role, but he has a win condition (get lynched)
a doc has a role (protect) and a win condition (eliminate all mafia)
a lyncher has a passive role (there exists an annoying townie) and a win condition (lynch the annoying townie)
anyone turned by the yak will retain his role (if any) but his win condition will become the mafia win condition.
1) No policy lynches There's a Jester in the game. If we establish a policy, he'll just intentionally not follow it. So establishing lynch policies is useless.
4) No-lynch on day 1. Let the yak clear out the playing field in the night. No point in lynching somebody only to have lyncher/jester win out of nowhere. Sure, a scum lynch on day 1 would be sweet, but let's stay real.
1,2,3 are good points. A no-lynch day 1 I'm not sure about, but I'm leaning towards a yes. Two chances to end the game in favor of not-town (could be 1, I guess) and one chance to end the game in favor of town are not good odds.
That's a part of it. There's also the small detail that half the players don't actually WANT to lynch scum. So any lynches that get done would have to be supported by scum, the lyncher, or the jester. All possible outcomes are severely undesireable.
This is not a regular game. Town does not have the majority. You need to keep that in mind.

which means lynching him is going to help me and everyone else unless he's the target of the lyncher.
Obviously we could go try and scumhunt for a mafia d1 lynch but I don't think it's going to happen simply because we've got 3 anti-town forces in a 6 man set-up. If we lynch mafia d1 the lyncher and the jester have lost the game so they'll do whatever it takes to not let that happen.
Not to mention that scum is probably going to play really different this game due to the set-up which makes scumhunting almost impossible, so everyone should try and role-hunt for their own sake. We don't want to help other people to win the game after all.
#BELIEVE Let's kill Dandel
Let's be frank here, the Lyncher basicly wants to not look like a Lyncher and I do think Dandel is trying to not look like a Lyncher/Jester here. Let's get rid of him everyone.

I know, that's why I said let's lynch him. I don't think he's scum, I think he's the lyncher.
Your argument for him not being a jester should also apply to him not being a lyncher, he started out the thread by saying he doesn't want a lynch today. Also if you believe him to be the lyncher then a no-lynch would benefit you still, unless you're not town ofcourse.
I mean, I guess I see what you're doing, you think you might be able to figure out who's scum from the voting today, but from what I've read about the yakuza role it is generally proper play to sacrifice yourself n1.

nah. It is proper play to not look like a lyncher as lyncher so him not looking like a lyncher on the first post (not really a hard one to do...) really is indicative of him being one. I don't think he'd post that carefree as jester.
yeah lyncher is easy to play that meta, just be "pro-town". Jester is incredibly hard to do if you know there's a jester in the game. Been there, already played it. His post is not a jester post.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around what pro-town is this game though.
We no-lynch day 1 because we can't lynch scum day 1, but then the only way for town to have a majority day 2 is if scum kills third party and doesn't use his ability, or if he does it has to hit the other third party. If either hits town and they aren't prevented then it will be 2-2 town-antitown.
The only person that seems he wants to win as town aligned would be the shrink. The PGO is hoping he gets yakuzad and the doctor has a bigger chance of winning as scum.
So I guess my question to you toad is, how does it benefit you to lynch the lyncher?
why should we no-lynch? That's not pro-town. And wayne pro-town in general, play pro-wincon.
Lynching the Lyncher = 1 player less that can make me lose by accidently lynching another guy. You should want that no matter of alignment as well, shouldn't you?
Anyways, off to a nerd-shop to buy a boardgame my friend asked me to buy while I'm here. And once that's done I'm going back to my parents place so I won't be available the next 2 hours or so.
as town, we don't want to lynch town, and we don't want to lynch the jester, so if you were pushing a random lynch (and that's what it seems like, your reasoning makes no sense to me) there would be a 1 out of 5 chance of hitting something that helps town.
His argument is shit too, "he doesn't want to lynch so he's the lyncher". I'm just SURE, that with me being the lyncher, I'd TOTALLY not want to lynch people. Makes sense. Since he somehow pretended I wanted to wifom with the first post, how would be 'know' I'm lyncher and not jester? He can't.
He just wants to lynch people for the hell of it. Which means he's the lyncher. (ITS EVEN IN THE NAME)
ofc that also means I'm probably not his target. That'd be too obvious.

Lynching the Lyncher = 1 player less that can make me lose by accidently lynching another guy. You should want that no matter of alignment as well, shouldn't you?
Here's the thing: You talk bullshit. Which means you either didn't think about the setup at all (likely, you play dota), or you think you can convince people to lynch today, even though it's baaaaad strategy.
this is also why you can't be scum. I guess dota is more of a third-party-tell after all.

1) No policy lynches There's a Jester in the game. If we establish a policy, he'll just intentionally not follow it. So establishing lynch policies is useless.
4) No-lynch on day 1. Let the yak clear out the playing field in the night. No point in lynching somebody only to have lyncher/jester win out of nowhere. Sure, a scum lynch on day 1 would be sweet, but let's stay real.
which means lynching him is going to help me and everyone else unless he's the target of the lyncher.
Obviously we could go try and scumhunt for a mafia d1 lynch but I don't think it's going to happen simply because we've got 3 anti-town forces in a 6 man set-up. If we lynch mafia d1 the lyncher and the jester have lost the game so they'll do whatever it takes to not let that happen.
Not to mention that scum is probably going to play really different this game due to the set-up which makes scumhunting almost impossible, so everyone should try and role-hunt for their own sake. We don't want to help other people to win the game after all.
#BELIEVE Let's kill Dandel
Let's be frank here, the Lyncher basicly wants to not look like a Lyncher and I do think Dandel is trying to not look like a Lyncher/Jester here. Let's get rid of him everyone.
If you want to lynch me, vote me like a man. You are not playing like a man.

Also if you believe him to be the lyncher then a no-lynch would benefit you still, unless you're not town ofcourse.
I mean, I guess I see what you're doing, you think you might be able to figure out who's scum from the voting today, but from what I've read about the yakuza role it is generally proper play to sacrifice yourself n1.
nah. It is proper play to not look like a lyncher as lyncher so him not looking like a lyncher on the first post (not really a hard one to do...) really is indicative of him being one. I don't think he'd post that carefree as jester.
That's the deal.
I never even played third party, but it's reassuring to know that you totally know what I would do in that case. Looks very legit, tell me more about my 3p play. I'm curious.
On January 08 2013 19:49 Clarity_nl wrote: I'm still trying to wrap my head around what pro-town is this game though.
We no-lynch day 1 because we can't lynch scum day 1, but then the only way for town to have a majority day 2 is if scum kills third party and doesn't use his ability, or if he does it has to hit the other third party. If either hits town and they aren't prevented then it will be 2-2 town-antitown.
The only person that seems he wants to win as town aligned would be the shrink. The PGO is hoping he gets yakuzad and the doctor has a bigger chance of winning as scum.
So I guess my question to you toad is, how does it benefit you to lynch the lyncher?
This is incomplete thinking. Not wrong, but incomplete. Blues can win as blue. Scum shoots the PGO = victory Shrink prots correctly = victory
The one that superficially WANTS to get turned is the medic, but there's another layer to that. If you're blue (like I'm suspecting) you should think about how you can win and the ways to achieve that.
"I'm afraid of the lyncher, I think dandel is the lyncher, therefore I want to lynch him." Makes no sense. I'm not convinced of toad being anything yet, but even if he were the lyncher I wouldn't want to lynch him. The fact that toad thinks he figured out who the lyncher is and WANTS TO LYNCH HIM FOR IT is absurd

Correct. We don't lynch Toad. We don't lynch anything. Toad just salty cuz all the fun happens in the night and the lyncher can't do anything then.

Dandel at your last bit there, I'm not saying town can't win as town, I'm saying they have little influence over a town victory. Shrink can end the game with a properly targeted night kill, PGO can get hit by the scum and although I'm sure there are subtle ways of trying to make this happen, for the sake of discussion I don't see a way for town to PLAY (read: be active in thread and try to figure it out) to a town victory, at least not today.

Which is why I advise you to think harder.
If you give it up and do nothing today, because you think you can do nothing, then you will accomplish nothing. If you're fine with that, then like, whatever man.
I have no intention of doing your thinking for you. Even if I found it lacking, I'd have no resonable motivation to correct you. Maybe you're completly right all along, though, and I just wanted to confuse you? Who knows really. (I do)
But you did correct me, you called my thinking "incomplete", then you stated a bunch of obvious things that are realistically impossible to manipulate at this point
Do you wish me to take your hand, or rather I shut up? I can't do 1) in good conscience, but I could be persuaded towards 2) We're not making progress here, and the topic is rather dull to begin with. Important, but dull.
I do not like the feeling of this pretension. We're not lynching toad. We're not lynching iamp, and we're not lynching me (derp). I also wouldn't lynch you, Clari-T.
Yeah that's the hypothetical world I'm talking about. What is this magical not-scum read on iamp though, I am intrigued. Is it cause he called you scum a bunch?

Still want to lynch the fuck out of Dandel. Way to serious that dude. This should be played like irc-mafia with insta lynches in 20 seconds. Like he wants to be look serious for some reason. Still don't think he's the Jester, still don't think he's mafia. Only option left is Lyncher.

I dunno, but the possibility exists since the OP specifies there is no activity requirement as long as you play to your wincon. I could see some jester plays that do this day 1 or maybe he's pming people and I'm not aware of it. My point is I want day 1 to last longer than 15 hours, since we haven't heard from everyone yet.

You know, I kind of wonder how the lyncher even wants to win this game if his target isn't the Jester. Like...we won't lynch any townie this game at all (assuming no townie is acting utterly retarded so far).
Lyncher, you better just surrender and help us find scum. Not only that, if scum/PGO kills your "Annoying townie" you'll be a VT, so why don't you assume that'll happen and help us find scum in the meantime, knowing you'll become townie later?
Lyncher, you are helping 2 guys who DON'T WANT TO WIN WITH YOU. I wouldn't even be surprised if they insta-hammer you if all 3 of us townies vote for you today. I wouldn't even be surprised if scum shoots you to reduce the playing field. You won't be converted by the yak since you are playing anti-town now and the yak won't win much doing that (WIFOM perhaps), because he doesn't gain a cool town power or make it so town has one less power.
It's time for your heel face turn, come on I believe in you.
If I don't get a PM or active participation from the townie out of Jiexian/Toad/iamp (if, in a remote chance on of them is town), which means one of Clarity/Dandel is scum/jester/lyncher, and we lose the game because of that I'll feel no guilt at all for losing this game and will place the blame entirely on you!

Anyways no pressure
You are aware you just openly claimed scum after Toad already outed that you claimed scum to him? Yes? OKay then.
Okay this game is turning out to be quite a lot of fun lol.
Anyways I need iamp to get in touch with me (*wink*) Again, refer to the previous disclaimer that if any of the "anti-town guys" is actually town I'm willing to blame a town loss on him.
Well iamp, feel free to post every piece of information you have in the thread and fully claim then, that way you do it "in the open". If you are anti-town then great fake-claim so we can figure you out easier If you are town I'll hate you for it though, but you being town and doing something stupid like that is unlikely.
You know, there should be a way for the host/observers to get all PMs done in a PM game
Some stuff gets "hidden" and an observer or the host, or even the players themselves when the game ends don't really understand much. This happens in other PM games as well, I think it happened in Liar Game
If the Mafia System thing ever makes it big in OMGUS I'll try to make that happen (although that'll take like 2 years lol)

Glad we are on the same page. The massclaim is still valid if I'm yak for the reasons above.
Dande you think I'm yak as well so follow the above advice.

Toad so certain in your read that you won't allow the cycle to continue for a bit? What if dandel is not the lyncher and the actual lyncher turned town?
Yeah, surprisingly I lied at some point while being anti town. Feel free to post the pms I sent to you, however I don't know the specific rules when it comes to formatting. I think you're supposed to paraphrase.
Original Message From Clarity_nl: It's hard, you know. I think regardless you are anti-town.
Here's an interesting thought to chew on, if you are scum and you have a partner you could win right now. So since you haven't done that it is unlikely.
You can't tell what role I am at this point? If you think you know I'm not the lyncher, and you know your own role then you should have been able to make an estimated guess.
I guess the jester has no need to figure things out though, which is where you failed.
I don't like how gonzaw posted perfectly fine, but then his next post was him saying he was on his phone. I also don't like how long it takes him to respond to pms even when I know he's there.
iamp however.... if he's pgo he played pretty weirdly.

yeah toad was too straightfirwadr and bullsgiting to be real yak

oh let me reprhrase: I knew it once n1 was over. I was PRETTY certain you'd forward my pm's to people so I posted this:
I'm the fucking Yak.
I pm'ed you, iamP and Dandel the same thing to see what's going to happen. I said I'm only lying 33% because I was really targeting one of you and I sure as hell shot you. I did not convert someone.
So here's the plan. I don't know wether you want to help me but I'm pretty sure a medi would not risk targeting someone else and instead just targets himself. So I'll be shooting someone who's not you and I'll be converting someone who's not you. If you are the medic you protect me I'll survive and I'll convert you the next time leading to a 3mafia vs 3 other people scenario.
to make sure the shrink knows I'm not going to convert you.
Shot gonzaw n3 on purpose because I thought he's the PGO and wanted to find the PGO before I kill people.
Again, only thing I had to do to win this is not shoot the fucking lynchers target... it's hilarious.

I got him to turn away from toad though, so eh....
This game was so hard for me
It honestly didn't matter for you which of toad/iamp we lynch.
Dunno why you were so intent on iamp.
I originally-originally wanted to lynch toad anyways.
Toad I never forwarded your pms to anyone but I told dandel I was medic so he obviously shrinked me. This is why I agreed to your crappy plan of converting someone else first and then converting me (which you couldnt do) WHILE telling dandel that I would protect someone else and win the game cause you would die.

the 5 player situation is already crucial like you just saw...
I thought the same as dandel iamp contacted toad soon and toad acted as his proxy, so even everything toad would say would be true sinfe iamp would have told him what he did
In order to make a lynch happen this cycle I had to claim that I turned town. If I try to lynch gonzaw and convince dandel to join me, then I instantly win if gonzaw was jester, or might still win if the scum believes my claim and hammered the gonzaw lynch. If not then a no-lynch happens eventually.
This was the only situation where I got screwed over but I had to take the chance.
Toad is mad because I took a chance while playing to my wincondition? I had to get gonzaw lynched, I knew there was a really big chance he was pgo so he wasn't gonna get nightkilled. THIS WAS MY ONLY CHANCE WHY YOU RAGIN AT ME

there was no way i was gonna lynch gonzaw, but i guess you couldn't have known that...

because I had this won if everyone would have played accordingly to their wincons given knowledge of roles. So it's just that people didn't know what was going on and lynched randomly... which is frustrating.

I knew what was going on, you can ask palmar, I sent him the list of every role during n1 or n2 (don't remember) I played to my wincon all the way

I played to my wincon. Sadly, shrink wincon is pretty much dependant on winning with town. Makes it hard.
Jie played most anti-wincon imo. proteced you converting SOMEBODY ELSE, then STILL protected you shooting the PGO. Like, wat.
I also stopped you convert, so I'm actually good. Even tho it was for wrong reasons.

With instant majority lynch you have to unvote immediately in lylo after receiving new, possibly meaningful information, I don't understand why you would just leave your votes lying around like that. You were both here.

iamp what was your gameplan? Not to pm much? Did you talk a lot of anybody at all? gg
Neither toad nor I realised that yak could only convert once >_> And for a moment I thought Gonzaw was the shrink and I messed everything up. What happened was Toad told me that he'd convert me and shoot someone so if I didn't protect him in hopes of letting the pgo kill him, I'd still be a lone Mafia.
I'm so mad
Gonzaw were you telling the truth when you told me you like that little?

It was like being hit by a truck when Palmar told me I can't Yak anymore
The point is: Noone was able to win this with knowledge of what was going on anymore besides me and the jester won because town fucked up royally

yeah, that's my point. If town had tried to figure out people's roles they would have realized they already lost the game and I thought it would be going into forced night because with 5 people alive: 2 people who want to lynch mafia 1 guy who wants to lynch jester 1 guy who wants to lynch pgo 1 guy who wants to NL

No, the nightactions checked out, so I was really thinking they worked together.
And that toad claimed scum in the end to change our minds into lynching him instead.

Nobody can tell me I played bad, I feel really good about how I played. =] gg guys, I really liked the setup, like I said though maybe add a 4th town role to not force a no-lynch till the end of time? Dunno.
Thanks for the game Palmar and co-host(s)!
What was this game like for obs? Did you get to know what the night actions were?

that's A LOT of ifs and it makes no sense. Never occured to you that I knew I already won if everyone plays to their wincon (with full information, which wasn't given, I know) and I just had to make sure everyone gets full knowledge to make everyone realize what's going on?

Fine, but I'll just assume there is no explanation then
... Assume what you want...
Yeah I lost, but you don't even understand why. Real classy to come in and call people stupid just cause you can.
I didn't call anyone stupid. I just wanted to know why you didn't unvote in instant majority lynch lylo when you pretty much knew you were voting for either jester or mafia, which antagonized you for some reason
well Dandel... you kept on telling me I'm lying all the time when I didn't (besides the "I can convert multiple people").
There really was no reason to assume I'm the jester. Should have just told everyone I'm going to shoot JieXiann prior to deadline instead of just iamP but with my luck this game I was too scared to actually hit the lynchers target to do that...
Probably still would not have been enough to make people realize I'm mafia...

I think your play made sense from a jester perspective, toad. If you are jester and you figure out who scum is and what their night actions are then you can claim them for yourself to everyone but scum and get yourself lynched.
Nah toad you also coulda won (in this setup) with Mafia + lyncher + pgo (since pgo is lyncher target)
Did you get my pm right before the game ended?
Okay, I need you to read this and not react yet in the thread since I haven't thought it through. I am the lyncher, my target is gonzaw. You can't get lynched this cycle and you can kill dandel, then no lynch again and you can kill iamp (jester) then we lynch gonzaw and we win together.

I don't think he played bad actually. The only thing he did wrong was not realize that I can only yak once. And even without that it would have turned out the same way.
I had gonzaw down as PGO like 95% and only shot him on n3 to make it a 100% call. So even had he not protected me I'd still have shot him because medic can't protect himself...

yeah I could have. But there's no way to figure out the lynchers target by hard facts. So that would have been an incredible betting game. Joining forces with the Jester was possible no matter what and as already said, a mathematically won game...
No I didn't get that pm in time. Wouldn't have mattered though, because it was on gonzaw and Dandel to unvote the jester and not on you. Also I don't think I would have trusted you. Again no way to confirm your target and if I bring you into lylo you could just as well be lying and it's PGO + VT vs mafia whereas lylo with jester is a win for me and jester, so no reason for him to stab me in the back either.

I don't mind being outplayed but all this happened because I was too stupid to remember the rules.

I had my reasons gonzaw was totes town.
btw, I don't think I'll play such a format again, I'd just be tempted to troll people all day, like I did with Jie.
oh I used ghost as a blog dumpster this game (rarely), to make sure I'm not talking out of my ass post-game:
most importan one:
Just to make this clear for postgame (yes I'm using you as a blog-dumpster ):
I did not intend to be an ass towards anyone, especially not towards JieXiann but I have to to somehow be able to win this
I really did not know that I can only convert one person per game and have to make JieXiann think that he'll be shrinked tomorrow to make sure he protects me although I can't help him to win anymore
Oh and I've got to shoot some asses and not hit the PGO...
that was after I realized I didn't read the OP either. So sorry for that one but had to play to my wincon

I don't think he played bad actually. The only thing he did wrong was not realize that I can only yak once. And even without that it would have turned out the same way.
I had gonzaw down as PGO like 95% and only shot him on n3 to make it a 100% call. So even had he not protected me I'd still have shot him because medic can't protect himself...
Does not compute. The second sentence invalidates the first.

Okay, I need you to read this and not react yet in the thread since I haven't thought it through. I am the lyncher, my target is gonzaw. You can't get lynched this cycle and you can kill dandel, then no lynch again and you can kill iamp (jester) then we lynch gonzaw and we win together.
yeah I could have. But there's no way to figure out the lynchers target by hard facts. So that would have been an incredible betting game. Joining forces with the Jester was possible no matter what and as already said, a mathematically won game...
No I didn't get that pm in time. Wouldn't have mattered though, because it was on gonzaw and Dandel to unvote the jester and not on you. Also I don't think I would have trusted you.

I actually thought you're the Shrink who shrinked himself because I'm pretty sure I've got a pm telling me that's possible, unlike the medic. I just can't it.
So I really didn't think the shrink would target anyone besides himself.
Oh yeah @clarity I never actually shrink'd Jie, I was a pussy and didn't want to die to PGO.
Toad told me he (in my theory iamp) conv'd you n2 and I shrunk it, so I just kept shrinking you because if it ain't broken, no need to fix it. Could also have done nothing instead. No matter.

Shit dude dandel I felt like I got so close to getting you to vote gonzaw, and then hoping toad would hammer it I dunno what I could have done differently/better this game

yes
Again, the only thing I was trying to do this game was giving you guys information on what's happening because I knew I had this one as long as everyone does the right call.
And yeah I'm not blaiming anything on Clarity, it was the only way for him to win. Surely a 1% winchance is better than a 0% winchance. It's just horrible that I lost because of this REALLY bad set-up that despite my best efforts town wasn't able to figure out peoples roles AND you pulling that stunt out of nowhere to get a chance at winning.

Fair enough, I thought that it would be a real townie thing to do, making sure the medic didn't team up with the yak.

I was looking for someone who gave a damn. That line was good but the things you said later on were stupid in hindsight. Toad was much more real with his yak hinting.
Actually protecting you was confirmation to toad that I was medic so that ended up well on my side.
Or should have.

You've got a 1 in 3 chance to lynch into jester / lynchers target if you lynch d1 (assuming it'l work and as we just saw it does when people don't know what's going on...).
I've got a 1 in 5 chance to hit the PGO at night which makes town win. I've got a 1 in 5 chance to convert the shrinked guy which is PRETTY much gg unless mafia has perfect knowledge of roles.

No, there is no risk to lynch. We literally cannot lynch scum with 6 people. Maybe everyone figures everything out, including you, but you are the only one who knows what your night actions are. With infinite amount of time you will eventually make the right choice.
Yeah it's a bit theoretical but at the very least there can be no lynch on day 1 if everyone plays proper.
I actually pm'ed palmar and told him to force the NL in time because there's no way for anyone to be lynched with 5 people alive and 2 of them voting the mafia 1 of them voting the jester 1 of them voting the lynchers target 1 of them voting NL
... almost got as cocky as to tell him to endgame the game if I managed to not shoot the lynchers target :p

Yeah it's a bit theoretical but at the very least there can be no lynch on day 1 if everyone plays proper.
You literally could not have lynched Jester or mafia this cycle either, yet it happened.
No, there is a distinct difference. Especially since I claimed to have turned into a vt. Town needs a majority or they cannot lynch scum, if they cannot lynch scum they should no lynch and BECAUSE TOWN HAS HALF THE VOTES, THERE CANNOT BE A LYNCH.
There is nothing anyone can say or do to make a lynch happen day 1 unless people are mentally ill. My claim this cycle however was believable which made the townies think they could lynch scum, unfortunately they went for iamp but wcyd

I got really lucky n1 that I figured out everyone's role (besides screwing up lyncher <-> shrink). Without that it's fairly decent.
You've got a 1 in 3 chance to lynch into jester / lynchers target if you lynch d1 (assuming it'l work and as we just saw it does when people don't know what's going on...).
I've got a 1 in 5 chance to hit the PGO at night which makes town win. I've got a 1 in 5 chance to convert the shrinked guy which is PRETTY much gg unless mafia has perfect knowledge of roles.
The thing is you're not forced to nk, are you? So you can take infinite time to figure it all out.

the difference is that town thought you're a townie and thought it's possible to lynch mafia this cycle, which was not true? Same could happen with the lyncher thinking someone is town REALLY strongly d1 and therefore giving into lynching the mafia.

Why would a lyncher lynch town that is not his target? It just makes it harder for the lyncher to lynch his target down the road. Even if the lyncher wanted this somehow, why would any townie vote for anyone KNOWING that they cant lynch scum.

Neither Dandel, nor you nor gonzaw would have been lynched.

Then why did you claim
Because if we had a no-lynch then I die either straight away, or a cycle later. This was the ONLY point where town had a majority (if I were telling the truth), unless toad somehow kills iamp, in which case I still would have lost had they lynched toad.

that's how you're supposed to figure out people's alignments. You can't just NL and do nothing as town because as you said, mafia has a slight advantage on figuring out people and just needs to figure out either the shrink or the medic to win this, which will happen eventually.

Yes, toad, but you cannot do that as town. Voting anything but a no lynch during day 1 in this setup is anti town, there is no way around it. That's why I suggested the fourth townie in the setup. So there can be a lynch day 1.
Jiexian, playing the way I did was the only conceivable way that I could have won, if you can explain a different way I could have handled it, I'm all ears.

The only candidates are toad and iamp
well he was 100% certain he can't win by doing nothing. It's like claiming SK as SK. It's utterly retarded but a 1% chance to win by town screwing up big time is better than sitting ducks on your 0% winchace.

Why
because you already have a 25/50 % chance to insta-lose as mafia if you try to kill people and you even have to kill one more guy that way. It might work if you take out the shrink or the PGO and add 2 VTs instead, idk.

well he saw mafia was going to win because you died, he knew he was the lyncher (= not a VT) => no way to lynch the mafia => mafia will shoot one more guy next night.

Toad, I guess, but I feel the current setup is (if not scum favored) very hard for town, especially since day 1 is forced no-lynch (you can't seriously say otherwise, can you? There's a reason we no-lynched for 4 cycles)

I get it now
change it to "either way it's a mafia win from his point of vie2 unless he wins right now himself". I mean, I get what clarity did and he only had 2 options left to win. Sadly for me, he chose this one....
Had he just pm'ed me earlier about him being the lyncher he would have had a 50% chance to win because I win with either jester or lyncher and had to make one of those 2 lose. But that's still a 50% chance to win for him, hoping I'd pick him or hoping I wasn't in contact with the jester instead of his 1% chance to lynch gonzaw

every man for himself.
this.
I went into this game thinking I've got a 1 in 3 chance to actually win this... or something like this. I think it's about the same for town. Which is the reason I'm so very pissed about this, because I was so happy that I would win this after all the bad luck I run into...

Nah, I contact you and you know who the jester is and win with him, kill me. I don't consider that a coinflip and I didn't think it was that farfetched to try and get gonzaw lynched, especially if he turned out to be jester instead of pgo (I didn't know which of iamp/gonzaw was which)

Yeah but that feels more like a random chance kinda deal. If both sides play decently (like they did this game) then night actions won't win the game for town.

I don't think third party can be the lynchers target. Pretty sure it has to be one of the 3 blues. Lynchers target being mafia or jester would be incredibly OP.
And you didn't know that about the "coinflip" not being a coinflip. I told you an hour ago I would not have trusted you but you asked me so I'm pretty sure you would have given it a shot had you realized I'm the mafia

Well, me or dandel, then the other. This was the only opportunity to lynch
Toad, I guess, but I feel the current setup is (if not scum favored) very hard for town, especially since day 1 is forced no-lynch (you can't seriously say otherwise, can you? There's a reason we no-lynched for 4 cycles)
Town could have easily won with night actions alone
Yeah but that feels more like a random chance kinda deal. If both sides play decently (like they did this game) then night actions won't win the game for town.
They're supposed to make reads.....
eg, as the shrink, make yak think you're Doc and get him to convert you. Yak must find out who is the PGO to NK safely Doc must find out who is the yak if he wants to get turned to mafia or who is the shrink to team up against the yak
and most of all, you have to convince them you are what you are.
I really really like the idea behind this game. Fucking shame I missed out that small part which turned out to be HUGE.

yeah exactly this. I really thought town did a bad job trying to figure out people's roles. You can't just straight up win this game the way you tried to if the game is called "Every man for himself mafia" lol
You had to do something and JieXiann is totally right on this one.

Well yeah, I didn't talk a lot with gonzaw because he was the PGO and there was no reason to talk with him from my point of view. Don't need him to know I'm mafia (should have told him...) if he's the PGO.
Well i figured the only people that would lie about being mafia were the jester or the shrink (not possible that's me). Or you were Mafia.
Either way, I couldn't win with you, so I just ignored you.

pm me, give me the NL and hope one of the guys ignoring me because they "knew" I'm not mafia (Dandel / Gonzaw) is the jester . Or hope that I'm just not in contact with the jester yet.

Dandel Ion, staring as the shrink

For me and Palmar, this game was absolutely hysterical. Night 1, everyone targeted Clarity. Throughout the rest of the game, the trend continued. JX kept Toadss from dying not once, but twice. I'll post a complete night actions list at some point. Way too funny.
At any rate, GOOD GAME!!!! It was our pleasure hosting this game for you guys.

Toad you were so straightforward but the thing you forgot to mention to everyone is WHY you were so straightforward. This is why I was able to convince dandel you were jester.

I very much approve of doing stuff for shitz and giggles.
Just came home, haven't had a chance to look at the post-game, but feel free to leave thoughts on the setup. It's a pretty complicated game and I'm willing to listen if anyone has ideas on how to improve it.
Toad seems to highly disagree but I think a fourth town member would help a lot with the slow start. I dunno, I got to control night actions during n1 but after a couple of cycles it's impossible for me to keep my story straight compared to others that are telling the truth.

The point of this game is that you never were supposed to win "normally" as town and people didn't realize it. You're not supposed to lynch the mafia unless he fucks up big time and you're therefore not supposed to have a majority as town.
It's about figuring out roles and wether you play correctly due to the information you have and what you do with that. If you give town a majority it's not doable for mafia given the blue roles and the constant chance of just dying yourself if you're wrong on a single read. I mean I had to shoot townies, which is pretty damn risky considering 1 of them is the PGO so you better make sure your reads are correct as mafia, at least on the important people. That was the reason I shot gonzaw on n3 on purpose. That wasn't bad luck, I literally wanted to shoot the PGO.
It's basicly like a game of risk (the boardgame) and people didn't realize that. Edit: The only way for town to win this is either to fuck me by telling JieXiann to not protect me and telling the shrink to shrink the medic. Or to join forces with mafia.
I understood it just fine, but there needs to be a way for the game to move forward even if scum isn't ready. It's just a flaw in the setup, and if there is a different solution other than adding a townie then I'm all ears.

Again, you had the same options I had except for the fact that I got lucky on my n1 hit. You and town had to do something in pm's and win by screwing people, not by trying to play the game.
Edit: Like as the lyncher you could have made me question my target for the last night. I don't want to make you a VT yet you never pm'ed me. The shrink could have pm'ed me and fucked with me.
It was just way too easy to play this game for me because noone did something.
I am not complaining about balance, I am not complaining about the different ways people need to play to win. I am simply commenting that the day 1 forced no-lynch situation was awkward and shouldn't repeat itself. You seem to be completely missing my point.

Adding a 4th townie would make this game more interesting than you seem to think it would.
It would make day 1 actually matter a ton. You complain that it owuld be even harder for you to win, but depending on lyncher target, it could be like 100% easier to win (lynch PGO or maybe even Shrink day 1). Also it would force the anti-town players into fakeclaiming (Let's say Shrink is getting lynched so he claims Shrink...then maybe Jester claims Shrink too, forcing a choice between the two...or scum claims Shrink, and people think he's Jester trying to force the choice...etc etc).

I get that. But saying the forced NL is something bad means that you don't want a NL, which means lynching the mafia is possible d1, which shouldn't be possible in this set-up imo because it's not what the game is about. Also having the game end d1 because you lynched the jester or the lynchers target is really stupid as well.
I think the threat of lynching the jester or lyncher's target makes the decision to lynch or not at least a debatable topic, and if scum chooses to do nothing n1 after town no-lynches then town might decide to lynch day 2.
Basically it becomes a decision for everyone every cycle even if scum does nothing or gets blocked, which is more interesting

Worth it.
Btw, read the end post again. Why do I feel like everyone is staring at me?
I guess, it's just that I never expected anything to happen in the thread anyways. I signed up because it was a PM game and an incredible small one at that, which means 99% of the stuff will happen in pm's and nothing important will be dealt with in the thread.
I went into this game with that attitude and it's exactly what I expected the game to be and I liked it a lot because of that.
In hindsight I think it would have been better to force Clarity to make the first vote on Toad/iamp "just in case".
If he refused to vote well we know we had no chance to do anything but maybe with the pressure he could give in and cast 1 vote, then me+dandel quickly hammer it (if it was on toad for instance)
Like I said I think it's just because you replaced in, especially since you replaced Dieno who did nothing at all. So we all made our connections and assumptions/conclusions and then you show up but we kinda know your role already, or at the very least are already busy trying to figure others out.
Like, even if I engaged in conversation with you I don't think it would help me in any way. The same way I didn't talk to iamp much.

I didn't know toad could only yak once and he keep saying he'd convert me while NKing another guy or stuff like that to tie me to him only to tell me later that he actually converted someone else or didn't convert anyone or some shit like that. He's really sly that way.

To be honest I was kind of fed up with the game and wanted it to end. If you just tell me "we can lynch scum today!" I would instantly jump to that if it can end the game and I still have a chance to win it (by lynching yak).
There was a day+night cycle I didn't PM nor posted in the thread at all I think. It was that boring.

I was hoping the real lyncher would like think "okay, I can win tomorrow with town, let's team up" and actually PM me or someone else about it.
You were the only one doing so so I was like "yeah this guy is legit, also he's not jester/yak because of his play/other people's play".
I didn't really care though since I knew (even if I thought you were lyncher) that like you were no use to me after you refused to "cooperate" I just wanted to chat though
The lyncher can't win with town unless his target died during the night edit: Like, if I had helped you guys we would've lynched toad and I would have immediately lost.

You just took it as a jester claim. Didn't feel the need to correct you.
I thought you were "obviously" faking your yak read on me trying to troll me or bullshit me with the alleged "jester claim". Like, I would not see that post coming from anybody except the jester lol. Yeah, yak converting shrink and dying is "bad" for yak but I thought everybody knew the yak would get the medic to protect him by then (so even if you were "converted" the yak would live because of medic save).
Also the shrink "claim" was too obvious to be true.
At one point I was thinking: "Oh, yeah maybe he's real Shrink, and he's subtly telling me he's shrink and he's trusting me, but wants to hide appearances by being "angry" at me and calling me yak".
But then you kept trolling, and Jiex said you claimed yak to him so that I thought "yeah he was obviously bullshiting me, that was a jester claim".

I was hoping the lyncher's target was any of the other 2 guys instead of me. 66% chance was pretty good to follow up with that plan.
So me+the other townies would just form a town circle, say "okay, X (your target) visit gonzaw the PGO", after he dies, if yak didn't already kill/convert (which he wouldn't if the medic leaked info into our circle from the yak), it's 3 townies with 5 players, enough to lynch the yak and have the lyncher win with all townies. That's 4 players winning, which I think is like the maximum amount of players that can win simultaneously.
Meh seemed pretty good in paper to me, and I thought the real lyncher would think so too.
In the worst case I wanted the lyncher to claim and tell me his target at least >_>

....not that entertaining, specially if nobody pays attention to me >_>
Also the only players that 100% bullshitted me were the other 2 townies, figure that out.
PS: I didn't know this was a PM game until I replaced in lol
:D you were asking for it actually hahaha at that time I was supposedly teaming up with toad
I fixed it to match the bitterness I feel when reading that.
After the game he told me that he had messed up because of the rules. If it weren't for that he said he'd have converted me right away and we'd have won easily since gonzaw and dandel are messed up >_>

Well yeah, that meant that no matter who of the other 2 townies your target was, I just tell them "visit me", instead of trying to find out who's the real PGO.

it's actually only a 33% chance and not 66% because even with the lyncher turned into a VT you can't win once 4 player scenario is reached. The only way for you to win as town + lyncher is for mafia to shoot the 1 specific guy n1 (let's just call the night with the first death n1).
So it really was gg unless I shoot the jester (why should I...) and it wasn't possible for town to win. If his target was one of medic / shrink you'd have to lynch me in the 5 player scenario, which is still incredibly hard to do, just look at how many people thought I was mafia endgame...
I mean your plan revolves around the lynchers target suiciding which can't work because it will automatically bring you to 4 player set-up unless you get INCREDIBLY lucky and the mafia accidently targets the same game.

If the lyncher target is shrink, the medic can save your shot or you can shoot the PGO, or you can shoot the shrink If the medic was his target, then the shrink can save your conversion, or you can shoot the shrink
You sure all of that amounts to 33%?
Let's see. First, let's assume you wouldn't know who is who (i.e you aren't sure who of Clarity/me/Dandel/iamp is jester/lyncher). Let's imagine X is your chance to shoot someone instead of converting (also let's assume you convert and don't shoot at the same time), Y is your chance to convert, and 1-X-Y your chance to not do anything (hold your shot) The chance of the lyncher target being medic/shrink is 50% (assuming it's not jester).
If you convert: So you convert with chance Y, in which case you have 1/4th chance to convert anyone in particular. If lyncher target is medic: shrink WILL save himself (not the PGO since he dies). You have thus 1/4th chances to convert the PGO, the only role you can convert to try to win in this scenario (can't convert medic because he dies, can't convert jester because why the hell would you? you lose anyways, can't convert shrink because he shrinked himself). This means we have 1/2*3/4 chances of "winning" If lyncher target is shrink: Shrink will save PGO of course. This means you can ONLY convert the medic (can't convert PGO because he's shrinked, can't convert shrink because he's dying). Again, 1/2*3/4 chances
So the chances for us to win if you convert someone are 3/4
If you shoot: You have X chance to shoot. Again, let's assume you shoot randomly. You have 1/4th chance to shoot a target in particular. If lyncher target is medic: Then if you shoot the jester we win, if you shoot the medic nothing happens and we win, if you shoot PGO you die, if you shoot shrink then we "lose". That's 1*1/4+1*1/4+1*1/4+0*1/4=3/4. Therefore it's 1/2*3/4 If lyncher target is shrink: Then if you shoot the jester we win, if you shoot the medic we "lose", if you shoot the shrink nothing happens and we win, if you shoot PGO we win. That's 1*1/4+0*1/4+1*1/4+1*1/4. Exactly the same as before, 1/2*3/4
So the chances we win if you shoot someone are 3/4
If you don't do shit: You don't do shit, so no matter what happens next day is 3 townies vs you vs jester we win.
Thus the chances we win if you don't do anything is 1
So the chances we win are P(we win)=3/4*(X+Y)+1-X-Y= 1-1/4(X+Y)
If you WILL do something, then X+Y=1, thus P(we win)=1-1/4*1 = 3/4
Since we assumed that the lyncher's target was not me (and assuming it couldn't be the jester for balancing reasons), then P(we win)=2/3*3/4 which is 50%.
Maybe not as high as 66%, but at least higher than 33%. I guess you could say you would not "shoot randomly". Well, even if we assume you leave the jester out of everything (i.e you won't shoot nor convert the jester if you know who he is), then it's 44%
That honestly feels way more than the chances town had in this game initially.
I obviously was only referring to the "If you know all roles or at least all important ones you have a 1/3 chance to hit the lynchers target because you're shooting into shrink or medic and one out of those 3 townies has to be the target" given the sitaution we had, nothing more :p
I know everyone's role besides confusing shrink and lyncher but that didn't matter, I knew I had the medic support so all that stuff didn't matter and I knew I can't hit the PGO. It literally only had a 33% chance because I can freely kill any one out of you guys and it's about wether or not that guy is the target.
If he is it's possible to lynch in a 5 player scenario. If it's not the game is won for mafia in the 5 player scenario like it should have been without massive town retardation... In 4 player scenarios it doesn't matter because worst case scenario is 2 townies (no matter who you shoot) vs jester vs mafia which isn't possible for anyone to win besides mafia + jester.
Obviously randomly shooting would be stupid. You can't shoot before you're 100% certain who the PGO and Jester are as mafia and if you know that that all doesn't matter anymore. But there was also no way for you to know that I guess.
Edit: Actually it's 4.5 pages of received pm's... not counting the ones I send and I'm pretty sure I send more Edit2: And on top of that all the german logs with JieXiann. Pretty sure I talked more with him than anybody else

Or were you just as lost as I was?
Without full details of what went on in PMs I cannot really say much.
I do think the idea of "town has x chance of winning" is somewhat flawed, since most people wouldn't be aiming to win as town anyway.
And I still haven't found the time to sit down and actually put my thoughts into a nice big post, been very busy lately.
Shrink wins most easily with town right?
I'm sure we didn't live up to what the setup has to offer AT ALL, by how the Dandel admits trolling everyone and gonzaw saying nobody replies to him. Toad and I didn't read the rules on yak and ruined the game though at least he and I tried to talk to everyone or get them to talk. I think Clarity played it well.
I think we'd do better next time, please host another one, I think it has a really great potential. If I could I would only play this type of mafia :3
