3. This is a game. Have fun. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. "You roleclaim like a dirty jew" is acceptable. "Go fuck yourself" is not. You know the difference, just don't get mad. Does anyone else find this bizarre..... | ||

Some thoughts on the setup. 15 v 5 with a traitor (so 14 town vs 6 scum) or 16 v 4 with a traitor (so 15 town vs 5 scum) Not sure which is more likely, I assume the second since it seems like 15v5 is pretty standard balance wise. But given that this is a theme game(and with a magical theme), and that most players probably have an ability of some sort, I wouldn't be too surprised if its 5 mafia plus a traitor. Although, that wouldn't give us many mislynchs/mishits to work with. Presumably there is a godfather in this game, since we have mayor/pardoner roles, and they can be alignment checked(or at least I assume so). Without a GF the mafia wouldn't bother running since the mayor/pardoner is very likely to be checked in the early game. If mafia does have a GF, it is undoubtedly Voldemort, and he likely can kill people(possibly a comp vig). Which means, if we have a tracker role, people running for mayor is a good place to track. Of course, the mafia could just as easily stay away from the vote altogether, but that's great for the town anyways. The mafia can likely use the imperious curse. Which means, if your action obviously goes astray, and you know you've been imperioused then you need to let everyone know so that we have a better idea of what assets the mafia have. If you have a very strong role (compulsive vigilante or something) and have been compromised, you probably need to take one for the team and get killed somehow. However, I doubt we have any roles that are quite that powerful. Thoughts? Corrections? Additions? | ||

1) I mean to say that if we get 20 people as opposed to 25 I will make it 16 vs 4 On June 21 2010 11:21 johnnyspazz wrote: OMG GAME STARTED! If only we had 25 players, then mass name claiming would own. Maybe we still should unless mafia were given a safe name to name claim as. Given the setup, I'm not going to be running for mayor. Never have been confident in my ability to lead. New players should not be running unless they know they are qualified to run. YellowInk, I nominate you since you were theorycrafting ways to break the game, I bet you have a great idea that helps the town. I think BM was pretty adamant about people not name claiming. However, given that we didn't get a full slate of 25, it could be more lenient than it was before: I will not be accepting name claims to occur in this game unless I am sure it will be balanced or your role PM specifically states otherwise. Jspazz, reading your post gives me an idea. Perhaps we should have people only allowed to run if they are nominated by another player. This means that the mafia GF will not be able to run for mayor unless another player nominates him. Most players will not be nominated, which means another mafia will have to nominate them if they really want the position. That could very likely give us a direct link from a mafia to a GF or vise versa. It might also discourage the mafia from running. | ||

The best system is to get a majority on who the town would like to lynch, since Day 1 lynches are typically pretty random we should just make sure it's a choice the whole town is behind. The question always seems to be, lynch someone who is inactive, or someone who is mildly scummy. Given the likelihood that we have a fair number of townies with some sort of special power, lynching an active player doesn't seem like a great idea. However, we have two days until we(the mayor) need to make a decision, and hopefully we'll have a good amount of discussion on all topics by the end, so it should be easy to pick out the contributors from the non-contributors. | ||

However, if we can get someone with a powerful ability(a detective/medic) as mayor, then it's a big boon for the town, since that player is unkillable for a decent amount of time. | ||

I'd suggest not to nominate radfield because frankly he played pretty badly and was inactive for long stretches last game. Amber, why don't you post a plan you'd carry out as mayor, including first lynch?  Honestly I don't think I played particularly badly, I just got a little overzealous with my accusations and actions. I really don't think people looked very objectively at how I was playing. Also, I think the fact that I was shouting "AFJ is mafia" all game colours your perception a bit  . However, the fact of the matter is I don't have the time right now to super hunt for mafia like I did in those first few games, but I do have enough time to be active in the thread. A big difference that I didn't account for last game. Also, Amber[light] seems like a good candidate. However, in the interest of having more hats in the ring, I'll nominate hesmyrr. He's been quite active in each game I've played with him(maybe only 1 though?). The key is to have someone who's very very active as mayor. They need to be willing to put effort into this game, take the lead, and hunt for mafia. That's simply not me this game, and won't be for a few months. But that way if we elect a mafia we have a much better chance of discovering it. So know this mayor elects, if you are not super active after being elected, you will begin to climb the scum list. Same goes for the pardoner. I think this makes sense. | ||

YellowInk zeks DCLXVI Abenson People who have posted, but no substance: Jugan laxercanon Stormtemplar Ludwig We need some people making cases for why they should be mayor, and we need to discuss them. Hesmyrr, Amber[light], and yellowink have all been nominated. I'd love to hear your pitches guys if you're actually going to run. If anyone else has nominations then the sooner you put them forward the better. | ||

MoM is a much juicier position for mafia now, as they can effect the voting considerably. This makes it much more worth the risk to go after MoM as mafia. YellowInk seems like a smart player, and more importantly an active one, so he has my tentative vote. If you are elected YI, who will you lynch? As far as the pardoner goes, it really doesn't make sense for them to ever use their power unless they were mafia. Going against the town majority like that will almost guarantee yourself to be lynched. I'm not sure I've ever actually seen the pardoner skill used. | ||

@roffles: We do actually need to start discussing the lynch, because the day ends in 4-5 hours. Unless you feel confident that the mayor will make the proper decision I will still run on my own if Radfield doesn't feel like he wants the position as pardoner. Like I said I think I can function much better as the MoM so we need to make sure the votes are in line to have myself as no. 1, and radfield as no. 2 I'm fine being the Pardoner. I can certainly guarantee that I won't pardon anyone. Also, to clarify my activity levels: I will be active in the thread, and I'll be actively following everything that's going on. I just can't devote a ton of time to searching through posts hunting for mafia. I will still be doing this, but not to the extent I would like(It's not like I'm just going to go AFK this game). Whomever gets elected as mayor, DOES need to be doing this though, and needs to be actively leading the town. I think Amber[light] so far seems like a good candidate, Yellowink would probably also do a good job (Hesmyrr would probably do a good job as well, but he has a shaky schedule). I will vote for myself for the moment(in an effort to be pardoner), but I'll definitely change my vote to Amber[light] if needed to ensure he gets mayor. I think he's the best candidate. Also, checking both mayor and pardoner is a good idea, as it gives a measure of credibility to the pair(they can't both be godfather). However, here is BM's quote on Legilimancy: Legilimency: The ability to read someone's mind. I will give you a PM on their thoughts, and you may use that information to deduce what character the person may be. I don't think we'll be getting quite as accurate results as we are assuming. Seems like we get more of a clue as to the persons identity, then any kind of alignment check. If this is the case, it may be more difficult to determine alignment than previously thought, and depending on how familiar one is with the books, you might need to post the 'thoughts' into the thread. | ||

I've already said it several times. I think both amber[light] or Yellowink would do a much better job then me, and will hopefully be more valuable to the town. I voted for myself for pardoner, for the sole reason of NOT using the pardoner role. I will absolutely change my vote off myself if it looks like I might get mayor. Anyone who has voted without stating their reasons needs to do so now(including those who voted for me). People presumably have reasons for why they voted, and they need to explain those reasons. It gives everyone much more information to work with. No one gets a free pass with voting just because it's in another thread. | ||

If I make it through the night in TMMM the I'm on a three game streak. Lesson to be learned: If you die enough night 1, you eventually become to conspicuous a medic target for the mafia. I hope. My thoughts on Jayme: Brief Post History: Good posts in bold Talks about previous game Against roleclaiming/nameclaiming Softclaims blue, throws a vote to Amber[light] comment Talks about mayoral election in detail So far Jayme hasn't posted much, but his posts are filled with content. He's been fairly transparent with his decision making and his reasoning. It's still early to really tell if anyone is pro-town at this point, but I don't get any kind of scum vibe. It would be nice to see a bit more activity out of him, if only to see if the posting quality can remain high. | ||
