I haven't finished reading through the whole thread yet. Some useful information from some of the questions I've seen:
From: Caller Subject: Re: Kill Power Date: 12/31/08 10:47 #/2 rounded up
----------------------------------------- Original Message: Mafia kill power is...= to their members?
From: Caller Subject: Re: Sanity Date: 12/31/08 10:45 just dt
----------------------------------------- Original Message: Oh also when a DT dies, is he simply revealed as a DT or is his sanity revealedd also?
|
Ok. I read through the thread:
Things we know:
1. BC claims DT. 2. mikeymoo claims blue. 3. BC claims he checked mikeymoo.
If 2 is true, then 1 is false. If 2 is false, we know nothing concerning 1.
Possible actions:
a) kill mikeymoo b) kill BC
Possible outcomes from possible actions:
I'll count neutral outcomes as good since we don't have anyone else we want to target day 1.
a) kill mikeymoo i) 33% mikeymoo is green - we know nothing - neutral ii) 33% mikeymoo is blue - BC is VI or mafia - 50% good (we know one mafia) 50% bad (we lose a blue AND we know nothing) iii) 33% mikeymoo is red - either a mafia ploy (50% bad), or BC is a sane DT. Which would mean that we know nothing about the other DTs sanity. 50% good. I'm counting it as good because we get one mafia kill.
thus, the expected outcome from killing mikeymoo is: 66% good. (33% each from case i, and half of 33% for case ii and iii = 66%)
b) kill BC i) 33% BC is green - possible but means BC is just a bored townie. bad ii) 33% BC is blue - 1) BC is jack - mikey moo would thus be mafia - fair trade = good 2) BC is DT - we know nothing - bad 3) BC is VI (I don't know if VI is a blue role but I'll post it here) - we know nothing but at least we get rid of the VI. neutral iii) 33% BC is red - good. we still know nothing about mikeymoo.
By killing BC, we get a 55% good outcome. (2/3 of 33% from outcome ii, and 33% from outcome iii.)
Now I know this does not take into account the motivations etc, and that some outcomes could be "better" than other outcomes, although this is measuring everything on a black/white scale. It is just something to think about. If anyone can see a flaw in THIS ASPECT of the analysis, feel free to pm or post something in public.
* DISCLAIMER*
PLEASE DO NOT VOTE SOLELY BASED ON THIS ANALYSIS. It is just for discussion.
*edit*
I don't know why, but * followed immediately by a D produces a smiley?
|
Oh also if you've played with BC before and you are CERTAIN that he wouldn't do this if he were green, you could ignore my point under b) i) and that would make BC an 83% good outcome. (2/3 times 50% from outcome ii plus 50% from outcome iii.)

Lynch BC. And me defending mikey moo doesn't imply there is a connection between us. I'm defending him on the basis that you're a lying sac of shit. Nice trying to analyze my playstyle but you still failed. I never use skewed logic, as your impending death is about to reveal. You did use skewed logic. In a game where as a DT i could be insane, more information is gained from the accused death than the accuser. With my death nothin is certain at all about the accused but my blue role. You seem to forget that. As for analyzing your playstyle, thats a general rundown of it and you know it. Regardless, it comes down to the choice of the town to believe two players who both have claimed blue, one openly to help the town, the other to help himself. Lynch me and a blue dies tonight, Lynch mikey and a green/red dies. pretty simple Except mikey is saying he's blue, which paints you as mafia/village idiot. We have as much reason to believe him as you? but numbers got run and even if they are a little off, i'm willing to take the chance and lynch mm. atleast BC roleclaimed while mm just said he was blue mikeymoo doesn't have to role claim to prove himself. The entire burden of proof rests on BC, not mm. Otherwise every game would start with mafia roleclaiming a DT and watching the town stupidly lynch. Yet your down with "someone claiming to be voice of DT" and laying burden of proof on the accused. So your fine with someone blindly trusting X to lynch Mafia A but totally against DT A just calling out Mafia A. Wow sounds like we have a winner. Ace you practice policy completely differently than you preach. You would only staunchly protect mikey this hard if you 100% knew his role, and only ways to do that would be to be a mafia with him, or have looked at his pm's.
Not really because if you have a mouthpiece the mouthpiece is most likely a townie. Not a mafia. Since you don't know who fed the mouthpiece the information, you CAN'T kill the accuser.
About the 33% thing, its probably 40% blue, 40% green 20 % red.
That means 70% for mikeymoo. and BC 46%. However, based on the fact that most people believe he is either mafia/VI, it becomes 100%. Based on the idea that BC is blue (jack/DT/VI), he has 66% . Accounting for the fact that perhaps there are more mafia or more blues, the benefits from killing either is pretty much the same if you think BC is blue, and you should definitely kill BC if you think he is mafia/VI. Otherwise vote mikeymoo.
|
1. If BC is VI kill him off and get it over with. 2. If we don't, we only have less than 10 hours now. And if we are to switch, who are we going to switch to? 0cz3c?

Nailed Theses To Your Door--Martin Luther which someone already mentioned
TruthBringer - Martin Luther was trying to find faults in the Catholic Church and say salvation by faith...thus bringing people truth? Pretty strong match. Another match could be RebirthOfLegend. Rebirth indicating a revival or rennaissance in a way of thinking, i.e, the reformation of the Christian Church?

If nevake is the zombie, mafia doc WOULD want to save him. Right now zombie gets to kill someone WHENEVER they want to, which could mean when we know for sure who the mafia are.

Unscrupulous Doc-can protect one mafia from a night attack from Boondock Saint or Jack. Cannot protect against Meth dealer-in fact, he dies if protecting someone going to meth dealer. You are also limited to 5 uses before the AMA gets on your ass. only protect mafia
Ah ok. Then its safer then I thought.
And now since the hawk thing fails, shall we reconsider the Martin Luther idea?
(Tomorrow, as now I'm going to bed.)
|
That would be reasonable, except for the fact that the mole gets his info tonight. So perhaps we should split up the information so that the mole can't get all of it. Like in the last (failed) game, we just have to compartmentalize to limit our losses. Any other confirmed blues/greens we can trust with info?
|
I don't see why we think we lost yet. Sure we lost a jack/DT/2 medics, but as far as I can see, the town has a pretty good chance. Based on Lucas' post (assuming he's not mafia) we have ANOTHER jack/ confirmed DT/ 2 vote riggers. Assuming these can survive tonight, we're in good shape, especially with a martyr who can save from lynches and the fact that we two of their bombers are dead. It looks like Caller decided to fill the game full of multiple blue roles? (and doubles of mafia roles too. Lets not try to imagine the possibility of there being two mafia docs. That would be gg for us.)
|
What happens if the mafia didn't send in who hit who? Would it then be random?
|
So...the thread is dead.
1. Is the voterigger going to come out and double lynch? 2. Who are we killing?
Based on the clues/town opinion I guess Heros)Pink is the most likely target? I'll vote for whoever the town wants (if they decide soon) or else I'll vote for him...the clue is relatively strong. Although you do have to make some connections and I don't know if Caller really is looking this deep. Town better decide soon or else we won't know what to do.

Unfortunately there are no vote checks

This post makes us lose the game. Now the mafia knows the person mikeymoo passed on his info too. I hope you're just a decoy/mouthpiece...otherwise they might convert you instead...
|
Ya. With that kind of post the mafia will be sure to recruit you!
Get real.
Trying to draw fire like that might be nice, but it doesn't work. Lets hope there's 2+ medics left.
Also when does day 3 end?
|
So I come back to see a bunch of...(in)activity. Along with some clue analysis? And a bunch of people we really don't want to kill but would be dangerous if converted. Grr...I guess I'll go with the clue though it isn't the greatest. Perhaps it would be better to kill our liabilities now. But voting for midnightgladius unless the town decides otherwise.
|
Maybe next game gm should modkill all inactive players daily. Either that or invent more pointless but funny roles. Or maybe some not so pointless but not overpowered roles that are fun + increase mafia kill power to balance.
Tracker. Can watch one person per night. If they are visited during the night, the tracker is notified. Stalker. Can watch one person per night. If they visit someone during the night, the stalker is notified.
Ghost. Retains the power to talk while dead.
But seriously people should play their roles. I think its because TL mafia games usually tend to run around a secret elite blue only club. Although I think greens could be able to get in if the are ACTIVE.

30 people
5 mafia 1 godfather - appears as a townie 2 DTs - infinite rolechecks; 1 per night 2 Doctors 2 Vigilantes - infinite kills; 1 per night 1 Mail man. If the mailman dies, he chooses someone to take with him. 17 townies
mafia kill power = # of mafia members.
Simple and small. The town can't wait to make a secret town organization because a) few blue roles, b) not enough time to make one because the mafia will win (theoretically) in 3 days. (Since mafia wins essentially if they outnumber the town.)
|
I like how everyone thinks the game is dead because of a heated discussion between DEAD PEOPLE.

The legend of sleepy hollow has a headless horseman as a main character. Could be night[mare. The headless horseman was supposed to be a ghost of a hessian soldier who got his head chopped off by a cannon ball. This might be strong.

Dead people answering dead people's posts telling them to be quiet...
Speaking of dead people, this thread is really dying.

I'm guessing XXXXXX side means mafia? Its not like we can intentionally lose when we are already losing...
|
Could someone post the clues we're voting on? We have had multiple analyses, and none of them have been agreed upon or explained yet? I log off with three votes for three different people, and now we have a bandwagon of votes for...randombum and rage?
Also 12 hours is not a long time being as its night now (at least for me). We better come to a consensus now.
|
I think we should be able to talk to the dead people now. The town is acting like its dead, no?
|
With an inactive town, I doubt it. We just better hope the mafia is just as inactive.
Although, where is wider mentioned?
|
We're doomed, and the town is virtually inactive. There's no point as the mafia probably have anywhere between 7-10 members and the town only has 24 total.
|
Well, the clue is pretty weak. Are these inactive voters just bandwagoners? Mafia? I don't know, but I'll vote for ShadowDrgn. Not because I think he's mafia, but we can't just lynch someone off a really weak clue. Nobody responded to my post, where is wider mentioned?

cmon who's the only guy that has a name related to "Mathematics"
ffs i think caller's trying to make it easier on the town right now with the clues since we're getting raped anyway
"narrower and narrower" could mean the distance between a hyperbola and the two diagonal asymptotes are getting smaller and smaller thus making it narrower and narrower
Mathematics...yeah. ydg should have been bolded in the post. Based on the two sentences he gave in his analysis I was not convinced. Making the connections between narrower and hyperbolas could have been better understood if you had pointed out mathematics in the next line?
Also the wider part threw me off as a slight misfit, and I don't think it has been mentioned.
Although it doesn't fit with the mathematics part, don't you think narrower could have referred to an arrow? Arrow head? As in blue_arrow?
Anyway, changing my vote to Hyperbola.

I'm out. GG.
We have like, 23 town left with an unknown number of mafia AND a bunch of deaths coming on right?

@ Lucas - You never even talked to me.
Mikeymoo when did you realize I wasn't a boondock saint?
Really the first night killing was pretty lucky. We assumed those were blue because of our informant (not Ver). Actually Ocz3c, you were convinced by a to-be-mafia convert. Showtime was working for us from day 1. Its a long story, hopefully he'll come up to explain the madness.
So LaXerCannon, who did you rolecheck?
|
I ended up roleclaiming boondock saint. Which was a stupid choice, but it kinda worked.
Showtime laughed at my comment when Caller made that statement about a video of him singing Beat It:
I'm guessing XXXXXX side means mafia? Its not like we can intentionally lose when we are already losing...
Other than that, all the real action in the game happened the night before we slaughtered the inner circle of Ocz3c/Lucas/randombum. We did completely miss on night 2 though. It wasn't a ploy to throw off the town or anything.
|
After Inf was converted, we had a long talk. Actually, Showtime had said before that Inf talked to him and told me that Inf still had a part of him that wanted to work for the town. He told me the same thing, and also told me he really felt like a) a traitor, and b) pawned by showtime.
The double lynch occurred before Inf was converted, and I don't even think he would be converted. But after I converted him, I kept thinking that maybe he was really working for the town and would betray us anyway and give mikeymoo or someone the list. So I was really suspicious and didn't want to tell him who we were killing the next day in case medics/vigi hits on the people who were targeting randombum (sorry).
The really ironic thing is that we actually wanted to convert randombum. I'm sure I sent in a pm to Caller saying we were converting Randombum, but then the next day I get a pm from Infundibulum saying the conversion worked. I was confused, then I asked Caller and apparently I had converted Infundibulum. The day before when I was talking to Showtime, we were debating between converting randombum/Infundibulum, and decided on randombum because he was more valuable for that extra vigi hit, and also it would have been less suspicious.

Downloading it. Gotta get on my other comp first.
@ Jimtudor/Hyperbola and the rest of the mafia, I felt kinda bad that Ver and I were kinda forming our little mafia elite circle. Should've let you guys actually get in there and infiltrate/actually be active. In Ace's game I kinda felt ignored, as 1) we already had the list of the other mafia family and 2) I was just a regular mafia. That's no excuse to exclude you though. Sorry.

Also, caller, did lakrismamma/mafia target me with a suicide bomber or did he just target me as a normal kill? Whatever happened we would both be blown up, so it was quite unusual lol.
Yeah I was. It was too bad Ver I think already suspected me. Rightfully so because it was a strange substitution. But anyway, when I joined I think the game was also over. The Folca incident just ended it from there, albeit in a different way...what was the official status of that game? Town win? Luchesse win? Draw?
