I'd say that's more like pseudo-pseudo-random though. It's not really as sophisticated as something like the Random class in Java. I'll give you that it's somewhat good in the sense that you can "prove" it's not just some number you made up, even if it's not exactly fully random.
In the end, I think we're utterly doomed if we can't make a better than RNG lynch with this list of players.... It could be somehow feasible if the players were mostly inactive to get things rolling (lol) I mean, it is "psuedo-random", but calling it that doesn't actually say anything negative about its use here. It's like noting that a dice roll isn't always perfectly random, or that it's really hard to generate randomness using computer. Sure, the Random class in Java isn't great, and maybe this is less random, but still this is SUPER random, so random you'd have to do it probably hundreds of thousands of time before there was a problem, or alternatively, due it a few hundred times per second or something. It's random enough taht it's already way more random than it needs to be, and unlike literally all other attempts at RNG, it's provably not influenced by me.
Well that's true.

Why does marv being in the scumteam make it weak? :D
Anyways I was under the impression that TL towns have mostly beaten RNG in recent years.

When he's afk he's mafia. I just don't take you seriously. If I do that and you're town, one of us is almost certainly going to die. If I do that and you're mafia, it won't help lynch you in any way.
That doesn't make any sense.
Your reply isn't influenced by my alignment, only by yours.
Besides you might reverse that and say that if I'm mafia one of us is going to die, which is good.
Or that if I'm town it won't help get me lynched, which is also good.
But you chose to be a party pooper.
So you're mafia.

The assumption that you're mafia? What did you think the "pressure" was referring to? That's what I was originally asking. My first assumption was that you were feeling pressure now that the game's started. It was mainly referring to the pressure on the votecount tool (with the harsh voting rules requiring its perfect functioning etc.). Well, I'm pretty confident in it after so many test games.
Oh. That makes a lot of sense.
Why should we lynch gumshoe?

How is it stupid to want to have you play the game faced against the overwhelming odds that are my unbeatable arguments?

Hmm.. Well, yamato's certainly not being very useful so far...

He has been super fatigued of rolling scum since he rolled scum for several games in a row. In the last game or two he rolled scum, he barely played and complained about wanting to be town. This game, if Marv is scum, he'll probably say/do nothing. If he's town expect him to be excited and energized about finally being able to be town and "recharge his batteries". Contrast Scum Marv that's on his game, who busts out hecka sweet moves. Marv's alignment should be obvious this game, even after he reads this post from me.

in general, maybe, but
1. Not by much
2. the reasons I laid out (skilled scum players, vanilla setup without extra townies, etc) all apply here
3. even in setups where town does have these advantages, RNG is still a good idea.
Why don't we sit down and discuss rayn's play so far? Is anyone else suspicious of his lack of contribution?

bh sleeping on me winning 6 of my 7 games as mafia on these forums made me die a little inside.

Clear post editing? I agree he's felt a bit "forced" with his entrance.

Okay if you're good at scum then that's even MORE argument for RNG! almost everyone here is good at scum! We'll never catch them D1 without lynching raynpelikoneet
thanks for your support voting raynpelikoneet
look, he's lurking even now, let's vote him

at start of game mafia more likely to re-read and edit their post than town is. town more prone to be natural. the lines at the end, the changes between capitalizing and not capitalizing, and some other aspects shows he read and edited the post.

LOL :D That last line was funny.
I really liked the first part of your post though. Seems like town thinking through stuff.

That value is equivalent to that of a hat. Atm voting for someone is the equivalent of storing your hat on a rack. Basically for the first day we all have awesome racks but shitty hats. As the game goes on, our racks will deteriorate, the wood changing from fine oak to base mahogany, but our hats shall grow in splendor. Soon they will be both outlandish and dignified. Not just one flavor, but two in conjunction. Chocolate and Vannila in perfect harmony. Vivax would you consider yourself a prickly dude?

Hahaha... Really rock solid reasoning :D
It'd be funny if he came online and saw a big wagon on himself immediately.
Just for that, I might even vote for him.
