So, besides caller, none of the players running for mayorship are even remotely decent at this game.

Seems legit.

I'm going to be super busy tomorrow, but i'll check in during the day while I run actual real life elections at my faculty. I might decide to run for mayor too if I have time to mentally work through the implications of no clues and messed up DTs.

Haven't had enough time to run through all I want to, but we're really going to need something a bit more interesting than this DT plan business to get people active.

So lets talk about who we're going to kill.

I'm going to announce my candidacy and say that the DT plan is a fine idea. I'm also going to say that for my first lynch, I would kill tricode.

Why? Simply put he's bad at this game. If he's town, he's throwing down pretty garbage posts thusfar and has a pretty terrible mayoral platform. If he's mafia he's subscribed to the foolishness/scamp "play the unassuming bro" early on to avoid attention.

that said, he's probably just bad at playing town.

Next: DT plan lynch. I say we talk about it during the night after we have a death and a day's worth of people to look at.

Well, that's the thing, if he's town or mafia, either way he provides nothing.

If you've got a 100% certain mafia candidate on the first day, feel free to tell me. Somehow I don't think I'll believe you, really.

Its not that I haven't 'gotten over it'. Its that you haven't gotten better at playing mafia.

You throw out really, really obvious mafia tells in games where you're townie; that's not acceptable play because you set yourself up to get killed later when the lynches matter more. For the first day, where we have pretty much no information and very little other than player skill and prior experiences to work with, your history of contributing nothing and fanning flames between townies does not help us at all.

So yeah, given a choice between bad players and good players who have an equal chance to be mafia, I'm going to pick the bad players, because the good players can actually produce quality posts for the town.

Foolishness, for instance, typically plays like complete garbage for 3 days to get mafia off his ass, but then he produces. MBH typically does not talk for 2 days, but then he produces.

I mean, there are a number of players that I could have picked that are relatively weak, but it was between you and the upside down crew. Your one-liner garbage posts tipped me in your favor.

Who gives a crap that mafia kills me.
Its caring about a wasted lynch down the road. The first day lynch is almost always up to chance because of a lack of information, but wasting a day 3 or 4 lynch on you after you've thrown down a bunch of mafia tells due to poor play is devastating and nets us quite a disadvantage. Normally in a game with clues it would be somewhat acceptable to let you run around saying stupid shit because I and others would be able to link or exonerate people using clues, but in a game like this you're just a liability.

There's a reason I get killed by mafia early and you get yelled at by people who are confirmed townies. Its because despite not being 100% accurate (which I'd never claim to be), I also smoke out like 2-3 mafia per game.

If you really had an issue with what I'm saying, I'd imagine you would drop the confrontational tone, because that's one of my criticisms, and I'd suggest that you actually deal with the issues I've brought up instead of trying to make this a war of egos. Do you honestly think you're going to drum up support for yourself by confirming all of the things I've said about you? Your posts still have no content other than defending yourself, and you're still causing fights, and you're still dropping mafia tells.

I mean, I pretty clearly asked for another target earlier on. If you've got someone better, lets hear the case. If you want to reform yourself, do it. If you want to fight me and pretend your balls are made of a metal harder than mine, well you're shit out of luck.

One, mine was inactive people, such as those non speakers. (But I am now considering Redtooth cause of his bandwagon)

Two, your words are equivalently or more useless then myself, so don't be talking.

three, actual important issue have you brought up that actually contributes to the town? Slaying me is the crappiest suggestion.

But you are right, I am getting to heated up with you and that is actually delaying any progress from both our sides.

Also my defense points out if i you really feel like I am not mafia, then you should be looking for someone who you really believe does have potential in being mafia, instead of wasting the towns time with me.

So with a little worthless things said here and there, I do have points that you should read. Though you seem to fail sometimes at doing that.

See, lets deal with these:

1) pick someone.

2) no they aren't. I essentially am the reason for the last 4 pages of information we have. You attribute half the posts in the thread to me having balls.

3) killing terrible players isn't a bad suggestion. I also suggested when to determine who we vote for regarding the DT plan and also suggested we follow through with it.

I have no idea if you're mafia or not, but at this point I'm not expecting anyone to be like "sup, day 1, no clues, lets out myself". The first vote is always a value added attempt. By talking about you I've seen who's come to your aid, who hasn't, who's posting, who isn't and how people are posting. There's quite a bit of information popping up, believe it or not. Information which we wouldn't have if i hadn't had the balls to actually suggest a person.

And no, your posts have all been devoid of decent content, sorry.

So, lets be cute here:

Tricode, you want to be mayor, right? Pick someone. Not a 'group'. A person. Time to nut up or shut up.

So you refuse to pick a person despite being a mayoral candidate?

Do you even want to be elected?

Well, redtooth, despite you having multiple posts in the last few pages, you've been picked as an 'inactive' for lynching.

So yeah, give me someone else to lynch with a better rationale and I'm all for doing so, but until then I'm running on lynching tricode for stupid.

Going by your definition, anyone who has been involved in this stupid argument with me and L, would fit your definition.
Are you serious? You think getting people to pick sides and present two sides of something relatively clearcut is bad for the town?

What ELSE were we going to talk about? We have a mayoral race with the majority of candidates trying to not really run, no clues, and nothing besides a DT issue we already solved. The only topic of conversation is who to kill and you're the only credible suggestion at this point. I told you a number of things you could do to not be the only credible suggestion but thusfar you seem to be just as defensive and belligerent.

If you want to know who i'd kill with the mayoral lynch, it would be tricode. What we do for the DT lynch would be informed by the information we get from killing him.

I don't know why there is a seeming consensus to lynch Tricode here. He's clearly not mafia, and probably some important role. Does it make sense that the mafia got on an irc channel and said, "alright here's the plan, Tricode is going to go in there and get elected and draw lots of attention to himself"? Hell no it doesn't. The one thing I learned from being mafia is that hardly anyone does anything as mafia. The mafia strategy is always just sit back and hope things work out. There have been seldom games where the mafia actually were involved in the town affairs.


even if he has an important role he always plays like this. Can't really make any assumptions here. On the bright side, if he were blue, DTs would know blues when they find them, although not which blue it is (unless they're sane/whatever the other one is). Also I think we can safely assume that greens > blues so there would be a higher chance of DTs getting their other colored RC. If they don't get another color, at least they find a blue. Win win.

The point of the matter, as had been previously said, is that mafia without their vet leader equals gg mafia. The town without their leader doesn't mean anything. There have been games where some non vet took control of the town (heck even I did it). The mafia needs the vet players not the town.

I find it odd that Pyrry has not been around at all this game. Usually he's good at helping the town, but I guess without clues he's about as useless as Aquaman.


Takes way too long to pinpoint your prized mafia vet. By that time, mafia's all up and organized and most if not all of your good town players are dead. I doubt a mafia is going to act completely irrationally even after the leader set their game plan up. Look at Ver in BCs (first game?) where he died day 1 (2?) but destroyed the town's blues. The game is about finding reds, not finding a single red. Because in the mean time you disregard all other reds in search for your red vet. Bad.


That's fine and all and I'm not saying my plan is perfect. But honestly what else are we going to do now? As L said, nearly all the mayor candidates are mia and all we got now is a plan so DT's can figure out their situation. Tricode is obviously not red and wanting to lynch him based off of his not contributing attitude or whatever is hardly a justification at all. At the very least you could pick an inactive to lynch.

Was pretty obvious he's being a dumb townie like pretty much every other game he's been a dumb townie, but now we can't really examine people's reaction to the idea of killing him if we're going to admit it as the only option that fits his actions.

But as a slight speedbump: there are zero inactive players in this game besides motbob as far as I can tell.

L, can we consider people who have very minimal post like 3 and under to be near inactive range?

Clearly not, given the game's been going on less than a day and a bunch of very good players play quietly to focus on pms or to focus on not getting raped by mafia. If someone's talking, they're talking.

Whether or not they're producing content or not depends on what they're saying: e.g. you were saying very little until I told you to shape your shit up. Now you're doing a bit better.

As for those of you thinking mafia usually just sit back and let shit happen - lol. That only works when the town is doing enough to kill themselves for you. Last time I was on the Mafia side I was actively planning out scenarios with Pyrr so we could stay a step ahead.

Don't kill active, contributing players. Even if you think Tricode is worthless right now with no clues to go on killing actives will hurt even more at this point.

Foolishness really is bad, and so is Shikyo based on that other game with JeeJee (lol). No one in their right mind would count the smurf game as credible to someone playing well since that entire game was a big cluster fuck of nonsense and half the people not even really trying.

Sure, so pick someone else.

Caller wants to kill pyrr, I'm killing tricode unless someone makes a good case for motbob or something, and that's pretty much the entirety of what people have decided on, lynch wise.

Also: feel free to tell us who you're going to off if you get put in as mayor.

I don't want to be caught in the shitstorm when the two major elected officials end up killing people that voted for the opposite party. Plus I don't want to be responsible for electing someone the town ends up upset about.

I think all of the candidates are shitty, by the way.

You realize that despite saying you don't want to get caught in the shitstorm, the fact that caller is going to kill pyrr puts you straight in the middle of said shitstorm, right? Pretty shaky reasoning here.

Okay, so I took a shower and went to school and now instead of doing work I am going to release the results of the L-calcutron.

Okay, so generally our games end at day 5 or so. Normally our plans of action revolve around securing a piece of important information by day 2-3 in order to be able to check pieces of hard evidence and smoke out some mafia. Generally when that fails, someone tries some powerplay and we either win or lose dramatically based on that.

In the current game, we have 21 players, 2 kp, 1 double lynch and 4 mafia. Assuming we play as terribly as possible, the game ends for all intents and purposes if we hit 1 accurately once by day 5:

Day 1: 17(4) Night 1:16(4)
Day 2: 14(4) Night 2: 13(4)
Day 3: 11(4) Night 3: 10(4)
Day 4: 8(4) Night 4: 7(4)
Day 5: 5(4) *Night 5: 5(3)
Day 6: 3(3) Obvious loss without double

Night 5: 5(2) with double
Day 6: 4(2) Night 6: 3(2)
Day 7: 2(2) game ends again.

Put simply, barring vets, medics and such, we need to hit someone properly on night 2-3 to have enough breathing room to win. DTs need 2 dissimilar checks in order to self-verify, which means they know with certainty as whatever they are by day 3-4. The problem with this is that it leaves us with very little time to actually capitalize on DTs.

What this means, simply put, is that we need to be accurate with a hit on days 2-4 if we want a decent chance at winning. If we can hit 2 during that time period, the game will become very town favored. Because of that, we need people producing content from the get-go. We need to be able to pin a few people down early on. This also means that DTs might be better off disclosing a 50% chance hit than waiting an extra day if we're nearing the "gotta hit every lynch" point.

In other news: sup scamp.
