Two millers are usually not possible, and you have one miller when you have exactly one M or exactly 3 Ms in the setup.


So, let's compute the probability to have exactly one M in the 7 letters defining the setup.

M has a probability of 1/10 to be rolled.
Let's have X for any letter not being M, and X has a probability of 9/10 to be rolled.

MXXXXXX
XMXXXXX
XXMXXXX
XXXMXXX Here you have all the setups with exactly one mason, each of them with a probability of (9/10)^6*(1/10)
XXXXMXX
XXXXXMX
XXXXXXM

There are 7 such setups like this. The final probability to have exactly one M is 7*(9/10)^6*(1/10)=0.3720087
The probability is so roughly of 37%


So then you should add the probability to have exactly 3 Ms in the 7 letters defining the setup.

You have (7*6*5)/(3*2) arrangements of 3 Ms into the 7 letters, that is 35 arrangements. Each arrangement has a probability of (9/10)^4*(1/10)^3
so the probability to have exactly 3 Ms is roughly of 2.3% ??


That should make a ~39.5% probability to have a miller in the classic C9++ setup I guess.

You can at least only ever get 1 IC afair.

Also when I (badly) mathed it, I got the (probably wrong) result of a 37.7% chance of getting a miller out of it.

NOT THAT IT MATTERS


You can have two millers, it's just incredibly improbable, and I guess that the host rolls the setup again in that case
You have then MMMMXXX or anything looking alike.

How did you get 37.7% ?
It's close to what I have but not exactly the same. I'm confused now.

Shit, I even think I got 37.7% when I computed it in Mario Mini...

Wrong because

setup speculation is scum talk Djo (you know that personally!!)

and mason is a town role

I think you should just follow my advice concerning self-aware masons in C9++ games
Then you'll be fine. Maybe you could check this page (clicky) to have an idea of how many blue roles are expected to be in the game given the mafia flips ^^

It's 37.7 because roughly 37% come from the single M, and a ~0.7% for the triple M. Can't remember exact values.

ICs happen with XXXXXXM and XXXXMMM setups, no others. There can only be one IC.
So unless there's a secret TL way of rolling c9 I'm not aware of, it should be impossible to roll two millers (ics)
afaik, afaik.

Not as far as I know. In all the C9++'s I've rolled, MXXXXXXX == XMXXXXX, etc. So, if you roll an odd number of M's, you get an IC/miller. Even number, you get mason pair(s).

Oh, yeah, you are right. I didn't remember the setups correctly. Two millers is strictly impossible then, I'll edit my previous message ^^

In the C9 modified setup me and bugs use, 2 millers is possible

You sure you get 0.7% for the triple M ?

this is why it's terrible to speculate on setup when it's already known in OP it's altered. you can't presume to know about the makeup of blues/mafia/SK unless you know exactly what it's based on (see rock band where i clarified multiple times to be sure)

the only thing you can get is general ideas. more goons = less blues, etc. and there's likely to always be a roleblocker.

That's why I really like Keir games, at least you know exactly how the setup has been rolled.

Could you review my precedent post ? I've edited it and I got ~2.3% for the triple M.

yes, it's good for town mostly, and restrictive for mafia.

for example if a mafia wants to fake-claim blue, then it changes whether there is a Serial Killer present or not.
