So now that we've correctly concluded that you don't believe it is a "nightmare" for scum. Why did you open with that?

What have we concluded? Even if it's only slightly unfavorable in the big picture to have no communication, it still seems seriously annoying and has the potential to cause instant losses. Especially if the scumteam doesn't know how to play the game enough.

Regardless, it's something to keep in mind when looking at the future votes and stuff. They can't organize at all, which should be helpful.

Did you still have something you needed to ask about the topic?

Seems a bit sad that it's only you and me here.

Yes. It is.

I still don't like your opening post because it seems overly distancing. If you know what I mean. I really still don't like it at all. Hope you bring some good logic to the table for the rest of the day.

No clue where the rest is. About to go to sleep myself. Just finished the most retarded challenge on binding of isaac (brains challenge, fuck that shit).

Nothing more on the topic really. It's a dead-end at this point. Have to see how you interact with others/rest of day to fully make up my mind.

So?

I still can't really wrap my head around that heavy(?) scumread. It's just too flimsy and hasty. Or was it pressure? In that case I could understand... And even appreciate it. If it's a real scumread, it gets tough to see the logic behind it.

Hm......

That's a bit of a vague way to put it.

Well, I mostly hope Half the Sky would appear. A great deal will depend on her alignment. Such as if her proposed team can even be considered.

Next up seems to be me... That's nice. Should be enough time to find two townies by that time.

Either there's an elaborate essay incoming or that was a really weak entry....

I guess there isn't anything.

Can't say either kita or Superbia left good impressions yet. kita for just ignoring everything and leaving, and Superbia for announcing some long-term scumread (??) based on me saying that the lack of communications should be a mess for scum...

Eagerly anticipating Half the Sky's entry... I go to sleep.

I'd say people stating that they are happy that they didn't roll mafia typically increases their chances of being mafia, though I don't know if that actually holds true.

Super stating that his read will be based on how you interact with others and you proceeding to go out of your way to interact with me could be interpreted as you trying to influence his views.

Neither of these points lead to more than a "meh"

Does anyone know if one faction typically wins more often than the other in a standard resistance setup or is it pretty close to 50/50? I'm not all that familiar with how the games usually play out myself. Right now I'm toying with a rng scenarios to see how they play out.

Hmm so assuming you are a resistance leader, if you include yourself and pick two other players at random you have a 36% chance of selecting a clean team. If you choose to select three players are random, the odds drop down to 18%. I'd hope our true odds of success are going to be better than this when we rely on a selection method other than rng, but this is just an example of the difference between the two strategies.

The reason I ran through these numbers was to decide whether or not we should enforce a policy that the leader cannot nominate themselves. Allowing the spy to nominate themselves gives them a free pass for a tainted group, while not allowing a self-nomination forces them to select a teammate.

I don't think the advantage of removing spy self-nominations would be worth the trade off of dropping the resistance leader success rate in half so I would encourage resistance leaders to not try anything fancy and exclude themselves. Do others agree?
