Suggesting that it's very possible mafia deliberatly picked people into 8. So i decided to scrap that idea and just not think about it anymore.

And you acuse ME of convenient excuses. Hang.

Huh. You both should hang.

Can you give me a reason why multiple mafioso would all pick the same starting number beyond mindfuckery?

Why go beyond mindfuckery?

Mindfuckery is kind of what mafia do...
Because "mindfuckery" is not the genesis of most mafia strategies. You seem to be suggesting that more than half the mafia team would pick [8] as a starting number. 2 seems low for what you're suggesting, or to be tossing out your thought that most of those players are town.

If you're telling me a bunch of mafia all picked the same starting number, and all picked EIGHT, rather than [1]-[7] and being further up the multiple first pick list, then the ONLY reason I can come up with is mindfuckery, because otherwise it doesn't make any sense.

And if it was mafia mindfuckery, they'd have brought it up. It doesn't do you much good to all pick [8] and then not go "HAI GAIZ BUNCHA EIGHTS, CAN'T BE MORE THAN ONE MAFIA IN THEM EIGHTS, NOPE NOPE NOPE." Now you're layering on the mindfuckery, and it's far more unlikely that such a play is happening than a bunch of people just picking [8].

So I don't think you can say it's mindfuckery. If it were, it's multiple levels deep, and that's not the right assumption. If you're town, you've tossed out the wrong assumption.

There's no good reason to think Caller is mafia right now, either.

The early picks are a place of spotlight. It absolutely makes sense to avoid it.
2-3 people picking 8 could be done under the assumption that few townies would also do so, making it likely for ~half the mafia-team to land in the middle of draft picks - high enough to get decent roles, low enough to avoid spotlight.

It is kind of concerning you try to dismiss it so much.
Must be because you also picked 8.
Don't let me stop you.

No, it's 9.

I have no idea where VE got the Caller thing from, and it's sad you just take his word.

If I've misread it please tell me how. It won't be the first time. I spent like 24 hours in Fruity misreading every little thing so just straighten me out instead of spitting in my face, thx.

this looks like restraining order is chastising his mafia partner here
if RO is scum, so is OO
