that means we'll end up killing several bodyguards and potentially the mayor for a mafiaso. not a good trade. The thing is, after the Dr.Dragoon incident, we're more likely to first lynch the accuser, and then the accused. It's not profitable for the mafia to fake bodyguard status.

These TL mafia threads are epic. We have just breached 25k pageviews, which is more than the how to use teamliquid thread--before night 1

Show nested quote +Also, why is everyone so confident that Ace and randombum are clean? While Ace's plan is pretty good, that shouldn't guarantee his innocence. We're not, Ace is voted because he has a plan of action that will benefit the town even if he were say mafia. Bum is just voted to kick Emp off because of his irrational approach to being elected. I have a concern with Ace's plan:
suppose that the mayor is townie and all the bodyguards get the right messages
then suppose that a mafia false claims that hes a bodyguard.
that means we'll end up killing several bodyguards and potentially the mayor for a mafiaso. not a good trade. If the mayor is innocent, then he'll straight out deny the fake bodyguards, thus we have free mafia to kill without any wasted effort. This is the 3rd times already that im telling you to learn how to make a proper quote. Stop only quoting what a certain person wrote, Leave His NAME. What do you mean? I'm not sure, I think he's talking about Ghar's bad quoting practices though.

I have to say, I'm pretty satisfied with the results of this. I think Ace and randombum will make a good team, if they are both townie. I'm not suspicious of either of them so far (although that might be a mistake), so my hopes are high for a closer game than last time.

edit: Nevermind, I didn't see Chuiu's lates post above me.

Well, shit. We lynched a Mad Hatter. ==edit== Although if he really was inactive, it isn't a big deal.

God -_-;;
What a waste. I can't really fault him for using his instant lynch. He can only use it when he is elected, so if he didn't use it, he would have missed his chance. Sucks that he hit a mad hatter though.

I request that a mafia or vigilante kill Showtime! on the grounds that he's a douche.

My role is Vanilla ice cream with Chocolate sprinkles and a Cherry on top.
Seriously, we should wait a bit longer before PMing Ace, just to be on the safe side.

Lets have everyone pm their roles so we know who's lying! Seriously, if you want to keep this game fun, avoid cheap exploits like that. Perhaps you didn't see what happened in the last game; it was a worse rape than the OSL finals. The town needs to get it's act together this time, and start making a comeback. Also, the plan isn't that bad. It gives a known townie information, which always helps, and he can use that to reduce the odds of hitting town instead of mafia.

On March 21 2008 06:33 French_Toast wrote: This game is supposed to be about fun, not just winning. Same thing with chess, there is a strategy called fools-mate that allows you to win in like three turns. However, most people would rather play an actual game then to fool their opponent into losing so quickly. The reason? It's a game, it's supposed to be fun and challenging. A fools-mate basically never happens. It's an example of the fastest possible checkmate. Fools-mate is theorycrafting that requires both sides to try achieve it. This game is already challenging. It's not our job to balance, it's Chuiu and Dapperdan's. Besides--winning is fun.

Okay, I just skimmed the last 20 pages to catch up, I've been behind. That clue pointing to Ghar looks pretty damning, but I'll wait until Ace gives the go ahead. I hope we don't miss the window though. Sorry I haven't been active, I've been a bit busy.
|
Well, Chuiu has the final vote count up, and Mandalor is going to snuff it. I'm glad that there's such a good chance or hitting mafia on this one. Sorry I missed the vote, I didn't vote for anybody at first because Ace said so, and I didn't come back to the thread in time.
==edit== lol, somebody voted to lynch Dr.Dragoon xD Kuja900. I wonder why.
|
I wonder why they only killed 5 again. Either it's some sort of cunning plan that I really don't understand, or our medics are doing a great job. Anyway, it really sucks that we lost a detective. The paramedic and the bodyguard hurt too, but the loss of a detective is the worst.
To Ace, is it worth it to declare a double lynch?

I understand that you may want to lie low, in case you are right, but this doesn't make any sense. If you want to lie low, you could have simply not posted it, and PMed Ace. Why then, are you posting the fact that you have a guess, but not posting the guess itself?

Hey guys, be nice to Chuiu in the voting thread. At least say who you are voting for, rather than just 'suspect #1' . Give the guy a break, he's underappreciated enough as it is. Or Dapperdan, whoever does the counting.
==edit== As randombum says in the vote blog, it probably doesn't count anyway.

I can't recall, can somebody remind me what the case is against wurm? I don't remember ever reading why he's being accused.
