If he sees two different colours such as the picture then he should stay silent which indicates to the second person that there are two different colours. The person in front will be able to see the colour and so can yell out the colour on the top of his head easily.
In your picture it would be:
Back person: *Silence*
Middle person: "Hmm the person in front of me is a white hat which must mean my hat is black!"
2) Are they allowed to formulate a plan beforehand?

Also, i can't understand why lynching Mooseydoosey is a good idea what so ever. Why would you lynch someone not even an hour into Day 1?
But, nevertheless heres a few questions to get the ball rolling.
Answer these questions.
How much mafia experience do you have? I have played atleast 10 games up to this point.
How many times have you been mafia in your mafia meta? twice, won both times.
If you had to choose one person to lynch right now, who would it be? Honestly most of you are doing moose for reasons i can't understand, but right now basically nobody. I haven't read back.
If you saw 3 buttons, 1 being green, 1 being yellow, and 1 being red, which would you push? I'd push green. 1) 2 years of experience, basically 2) 8 times I think 3) ness 4) I'd push triangle Question: how do you expect these questions will help you to find mafia? Why do you think this makes him mafia? It doesn't unless he can't explain what he expects from questions like these Yes, glowing bear you haven't played any games with me before, so i'm just going to assume you're town right now. But you jumping to me as mafia for asking questions...? Tell me, why do you think i'm mafia in a logical manner. cuz you asked useless personal questions most of which can be answered by looking @ the DB that don't lead to mafia in any obvious way. tho town GB mostly just calls you dumb or worthless there instead of mafia, so GB might be mafia; juzzayin. Mafia experience? Thats not a personal question. It shows how experienced someone is. Thats why i asked it. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/390080-tl-mafia-databaseyou can look up everyone's names! see how many games on these forums they have played, get the results of those games, and even view their filters for said games. it answers almost all of your questions. I'm new to team liquid, so i guess my questions strategie doesn't work here. But i didn't know that, but what i meant was mafia experience as a whole. Not just their TL mafia, but on other forums as well. I know for an absolute fact there has to some veteran mafia players in here. I guess my forums can't exactly help with that, i'll look up names later. but in the mean time, who do you guys think is town aligned?
50+ games of varying length. First one here was my first game.
You see not with the eyes however.

I'd like to know what the fuck I'm doing that gives everyone such mafia feels. Pressuring 1 guy for info and saying that tomorrow my posting will be limited b/c im going to my brothers wedding makes me scum? Do you want pictures of me at the wedding? I'll give them to you if you really want them.
I'm not scum and once again I see that not being a regular here means I'm going to be scum read for stupid ass reasons. Honestly the first day here on TL sucks every time I've played here :/

You only have two posts that really have any content in them and both of them are pointless posts directed towards the player that you are accusing me of attacking. If I am guilty of discrediting the new player (I'm not even sure how I am doing that) then please elaborate how your plan of play was any different and why it makes our alignments different in this situation?
I have left open ended questions for the player to answer as my concerns are valid, if you would like to prove that my concerns are not in fact valid you are welcome to quote those posts and explain them. My vote is currently on Vivax who has done nothing despite being around and you have not commented on that though, please alter this situation and make your thoughts on him known.

Hi there people. Just woke up from my nap and I see the game's started. Will be posting from my phone for the first few days. My stepbrother's wedding is tomorrow, but after that I'll have plenty of time to read, tho I'm not gonna lie reading 352 pages of day 1 crap is something I don't look forward to.
Hope everyone continues to have a Merry Christmas season! This is scummy as all hell
yeah yeah yeah whatever. Best part is, when I flip town you'll all just blame my play, instead of your shitty reads

@exo don't get mad. Just try to find scum and answer any questions people ask you.
If we lynch you and you're town, that's our problem not yours.

Alliens have conquered the earth and decided to eat the dumb people first and finish with the smartest people. To decide the order in how they eat people they invented a couple of test.

Let's assume the group gets told the rules of the riddle before and then can come up with a plan together. So that they only need 1 smart person in each group to survive another day. 1) First riddle setup: - People can only look forward. - People cannot move/speak/signal each other in a "cheaty" way. (your guts should tell you what is allowed) - People got told there are 2 black hats and 1 white hat OR there are 2 white hats and 1 black hat. goal: - A person needs to correctly yell out the color of his hat. If he can do that all 3 are spared. (so black or white is the first word anybody can say) question: - How will they solve it? (Let's assume the picture has the randomized set-up which the players didn't know beforehand obviously) 2) second riddle setup: - People can only look forward. - People cannot move/speak/signal each other in a "cheaty" way. (your guts should tell you what is allowed) - People get told they have either a black hat or a white hat on their head. goal: - Yell out the color of your hat. Out of the 9 people max 1 person can be wrong. In this riddle person 1 starts, then 2, 3, 4, etc till 9. question: - How will they solve it? (Let's assume the picture has the randomized set-up which the players didn't know beforehand obviously) 1) The person that can see the 2 hats in front of him yells a color. If he gets it wrong, it means he was already seeing two different colors. This confirms his color as the opposite. Then the middle guy yells another color based on the color he is seeing in front on him and the other color that is confirmed. The first person who yells out a color needs to be correct. Otherwise they all die. On December 27 2015 10:23 GlowingBear wrote:On December 27 2015 10:05 Koshi wrote:To honor the last good big game I played I will post 2 riddles here as well.

Could be 0-9 of each color. On December 27 2015 10:49 Vivax wrote:
Koshi's riddle #1
If the guy in the middle says the opposite of what he sees in front of him, and then the guy behind him too, the third should know his own color?
1 in front. 3 in back.
#2: I am black -> #1 knows he white
#3: I am white -> # 2 knows he black
#1: knows from #2 hes white
in any other case #3 knows what he is just from the 2 colors in front. My try I guess In the first riddle the first person who says a color needs to be correct. If he is correct they all are spared. On December 27 2015 10:51 Vivax wrote:
And in riddle #2 they get told apparently? Or is it a fake tell? In riddle 2 they don't get told anything except that they have a black or white hat. Puzzle can't be solved if they can only say black or white and never move That is incorrect
Yeah, Ive read HF's answer. I got the basic reasoning right, just didn't reached the conclusion that the first guy could communicate he was seeing two colors by just being silent :/
