every time i read this i cringe a little for useLess.. mostly because he changed his name from useless to useLess in an attempt to stop this thing from happening. i don't remember the thread but i remember hot_bid (or someone) was basically telling him that it's not going to change anything..guess he was right

Could I have a rough estimate of the times you'll be posting (UTC -5...that's EST) so I can best prepare myself for the frenzy of refreshes and replies?

EDIT: And town, we have more than five days. Mafia killing power is at max 5...read the rules :/

The game will start friday and I'll be shooting for 10-11pm CST. I'm going to give out roles a day ahead of time also.

Also, I'm going to change the 'rounded down' comment to 'rounded up' this game. So mafia will still have 5 hits after losing one member this time around.

oops, 7 days then.I was thinking mafia only needed to kill 21 townies (become more than half of town) instead of 31 (outnumber town). My bad.
31/5= 6.2.

uhm? if town kills no mafia, then 6 townies die every day (5 killed by mafia, 1 by town), so after 5 days 30 townies are killed and only 10 remain, along with 10 mafia -> mafia win

Maybe thats how I came up with the 5 days. I should show my work - so I wouldn't forget how I came to the conclusion. But Mafia has to outnumber town not equal - so I was wrong none the less. so 6 days. Suicide bomber, Jacks, Mad Hatters, and vigilantes makes it unpredictable anyways.

Edit: If you can't wait for mafia to start and have nothing better to do.

Worst case scenario for town:

Day/night 1:
1 - Town lynches innocent
5 - mafia kills 5 town
6 - dead on first day/night

Day/night 2:
1 - town lynches another innocent
5 - mafia kills 5 townies
5 - 3 vigilantes and 2 jacks kill townies
11 – dead on second day/night

Day/night 3:
1 – town lynches another townie
5 – mafia kills another 5
8 - 3 paramedics and 2 jacks all protect one person and mafia happens to use a suicide bomber on him and the two jacks happened to place bombs on townies on the first day.
4 – mafia happens to kill 2 mad hatters, who both have already placed both bombs on townies.
18 – dead on third day/night
Total: 35 dead townies, but 1 suicide bomber died so its 9 to 5 and mafia wins!

I think this game town will win, the townspeople are just getting too good at figuring out clues. Particularly this forum of intelligent people who probably spend more time on the internet than most, including me.

Although looking at the numbers this game seems a wee bit in favor of mafia to me. I'll give you guys some numbers I compiled so you can decide for yourself.

Here are some stats:
This game first, Last game second:

Total players 50 v 132

Total mafia 10 v 20

Mafia % 20 v %15.15%

Townie with role 40% v 30%( around depending if mafia pardoner counts.)

Anybody with role 52% v 39.39%

Min days for Mafia victory 3 (This game)

Day/night 5:
1- lynch
9- mafia
2- jack
12 - Day/night 5
74 Total

Day 6
2 Double lynch-
9- Normal mafia kill
10 - 7 medics + 2 jacks + target from suicide bomber.
21- day 6
Total - 95

112-95 = 17 Mafia have 19 they have won.


Min days for town to win assuming best possible scenario is 2 for both games. (wee bit unlikely)

Differences
- No mayor/bodygaurds/pardoner hurts town, ALOT
- No saboteur, Hurts mafia (somewhat?)
+ Show Spoiler +
What a fucking useless role, you have to declare sabotage the day before you want to use it-> basically only useful on mayor or roles you know but don't want to kill (lol) It can't even snipe vets because they get the whole day/night cycle to tell medics they are targeted. + Show Spoiler +
For those who don't know this was me last game, I bitched a lot about this point actually, Chuiu ended up declaring he banned me because I would let this drop)
-Mad hatter only have 2 instead of three bombs Neutral, not really a big deal.
- Kills rounded up obviously help mafia.
-Almost all players will be active good for both sides, although it leans towards town (clue-checking > clue-faking, although plexa mafia might convince everybody)
-More mafia % = better for mafia side (duh.)

Anyways, good luck to both teams. This took me far longer than I planned.

Even with a good townie giving misdirection, mafia still have the element of confusion on their side. It's gonna hurt with no Mayor/Pardoner/BG this time because there can be NO mistakes on votes and Detectives can't just PM the Mayor/Pardoner for prot.

Hopefully more townies step up on the clue front this game. I know last game had a kind of inclusive power ring, with most of town feeling like they were just awaiting orders. That system won't work this time, though. All of the mafia this time around already know who the active clue interpretors were last time, so those who took an active, noticable role will be likely early targets this game.

On top of that, with the mayor/bodyguard system gone, we have no way of verifying the security of a matter when someone says "vote to lynch X". So, townies are going to have to draw their own conclusions, because the mafia aren't going to sit around letting just a few vocal townies live like they did last game. The best counter town has to that is to make sure that all of the town is active; they can't silence every voice at once if the whole town is talking.

/pregame town bias

Watch me flip Mafia.
