I know people have a tendency to troll town "hint, hint" (fishball and attackzerg COUGH) Sorry I'm going through the thread right now. 1/3 of the way through and I caught this post. Attackzerg was mafia last game, so he wasn't exactly trolling town. As for me last game, you(guys) accused me first without any "evidence", and even though I hinted that I was a vet during the process of accusation, no one ever thought of it. Then after I was confirmed a vet, I was still partially kept in the dark, which just turns me off, so I'd rather have some fun. Speaking of last game, you still owe me some lube up your ass. Now back to reading the thread for me... | ||

"Mafia (also known as Werewolf or Assassin) is a party game modeling a battle between an informed minority and an uninformed majority." Once you have a council of 11+ confirmable Veterans, you have an informed majority = imba. | ||

Claiming should be public. Period. The inherent risk in claiming is exposing yourself to the mafia and potentially making yourself a target. However, it's still viable because there are medics to protect you. Additionally it might be worth dying for to give the town the information you have, and if mafia kill you and your role is revealed, that information is guaranteed to be true. I had fun, I guess. I called from the very start that this game was ridiculously imbalanced for town, and that was before I knew about the fact that we were all power roles. Thanks for the game guys, but I doubt I'll be playing again. | ||

You are only halfway there, all you have to do is switch the words informed and uninformed and you will learn the definition for Team Liquid Mafia 4. TT | ||

Sharp looking man -> Gay people stereotypically dress nice -> Gay people are oppressed by don't ask don't tell -> DADT involves barracks -> Ra.Xor.2 ... look if you are going to make clues that complicated at least try to make sure that Occam's Razor isn't going to lead us to half the field first: Less steps: Pyrrhuloxia -> bird with sharp beak / talons -> sharp looking man blue arrow -> arrows are sharp -> sharp looking man rice -> has sharp knife / teeth in profile -> sharp looking man 3 lions -> lions have sharp claws -> sharp looking man TrifleJack -> some people think Jack Sparrow looks pretty sharp -> sharp looking man fearus -> sounds like Fearow -> bird with sharp beak -> sharp looking man No one is supposed to get day 1 clues anyway so I suppose it is fine but i hope they weren't going to be like that the whole time. | ||

In any game type, you're probably going to have some way for there to be someone who is a guaranteed townie. If not mathematically, than just purely through reads. I considered LTT guaranteed townie just by how much he was screwing over mafia. Claiming should be public. Period.

While I agree things should be more public we're playing on an internet forum - really there isn't much anyone running the game can do to stop that. | ||

LOL I must admit I didn't read the thread closely enough to see that everyone had a blue role. I thought I was special  also, someone did point out the benign man -> triflejack clue, though i forget who. | ||

Granted, but claiming is only useful if you use it to organize the town with the information they get. If the game organizers saw people making assumptions on information they shouldn't know, they would be able to determine people were privately claiming. Additionally, I like to think that most people here have some ethics and if Chuiu banned privately claiming most wouldn't do it, and those who did would be ratted out by those who don't (in the spirit of having a good game). | ||

 I JUST had the free time to read the entire thread, since I was busy for the past 4 days (like I mentioned in the thread previously, I was sincere), starting from page 7, which took me like an hour to catch up... Then BAM, the game ends. I was the last veteran... Boooo | ||
