I give little cred yet to Yamato dodging so far. We will know soon if he's scum or not probably.

Why do you expect more when you don't know my experience for instance? Do you expect more because you know I'm town?

Also I think scum lynch rate is in the 33 or so percent actually a tad higher than rng I believe...


I mean, I expect more with your posting. So far so good. At least here you're not second guessing yourself. Be bold my friend. If you're scum, you'll out yourself. If you're town, you'll out yourself. The system works. much harder to find scum if people can be wishy-washy about everything.

As for the scum lynch rate not sure how that matters when you're discussing a random lynch. It's a moot point anyway.

ROFL, what I meant was with 10 townies and 3 mafia, there is a much higher chance on lynching town if the lynch is completely randomised.

Eden, what makes you "bad" at this game?



I would argue that there is a higher chance of lynching town if it is NOT random, but then you would lose out on any information. The theory behind this is that the mafia know each other and the town do not (on average). This leads to mafia not only have a numbers advantage in that there is a higher chance that town get lynched, but they will also work together to absolutely make sure one of their own do not die day one. Granted I am sure they screw up from time to time and do get lynched day 1, but to say that there is a higher chance of lynching town at random, I believe that to be false.

Oh. That's a lot more boring, I was hoping there were some kind of stats available somewhere because I love stats. But yeah, a random lynch hits town more likely than mafia. Most d1 lynches tend to. I'm not worried too much about that.

+ Show Spoiler +

Anyway I'm not actually bad at this game, I just said that so that when the mafia scroll down and read the thread they'll see it and not nightkill me. They probably won't open this spoiler box because they're lazy/not reading so I can safely tell you this here.

There's a bunch of fun statistics in the TL Database.
+ Show Spoiler +
Mafia players are lynched 26.2% of the time on day one.
Random lynching would result in a mafia lynch 25.2% of the time.
Mafia players are lynched only 16.9% of the time in newbie games on day one, so excluding these games brings the overall day one lynch percentage up to 28.5%!
48% of players playing in a newbie game have returned to play in at least 1 other game.
There have been 1200 distinct mafia players.
VE has been lynched 24 times.

So Eden wants to get dirty, hey Artanis, what do think of that?

In any case, as far as Prob being serious...I don't know him. I don't know whether people played more serious back in the day, assuming he's another old timer.

He's serious but he's not stiff. I don't sense any discomfort in his posts. He seems assertive/comfortable from what I read of his posts so he's probably town.

No it's not "old-timers", I'm just an asshole that's all.

That wasn't quite as enlightening as I thought.

That's a 4/10 topping at best.
