So, yes there are alot of items and strange dynamics to this game, but this does not eliminate the need for discussion and analysis. So, with that in mind, what do we want to discuss? Merc Mafia specific game dynamics: *How do we want to treat the extra KP that the town has? *The RPG can't be used by the person who has it, should we assume that the rest of the items work this way? How does this effect the town's strategy? *It would appear that we have no traditional blue roles. There may or may not be items to fill in this gap. If we assume that everyone has a item/ability, and it's KP related, then the town has a big advantage if they can utilize it. I have some other questions, but hopfully we can start a discussion with that. | ||

Then again, would day kills show up immediately, or on the night post? | ||

I personally think that you should shoot a lurker. I doubt that the mafia will risk lurking if there is the threat of an immediate kill looming over their heads. And even if we do hit a Townie, at least non of the mafia will be lurking, and we'll be able to find them through analysis. | ||

One at the start, and one during the day? Or did you just mean that you can fire your daily shot as soon as the day begins... Also, Can we begin trading now, or do we need to wait for the day to officially begin? | ||

It seems like the town has been given a lot of power, and if we aren't careful with it, we'll get ourselves all killed. That being said, the 96hr first day should give us a lot of discussion to analyze. I've been struggling with what the town should do with their ability/item(s), and I think that the answer is just to play it by ear. If we have clear targets, then we should use the extra KP that the town has. If we don't then perhaps it is more prudent to wait till day 2. Either way, I don't see this game going to day 3. | ||

Something that I would like to point out, is that I believe that every townie has a ability, or item. This means that the town is incredibly powerful right off the bat. It wouldn't be a balanced game if the mafia didn't have something to even the playing field. Also, the town has the ability to kill at least two people today, while classic mafia would have to wait till the end of the night to kill their first person. This is a pretty huge advantage, so I'd expect something equally OP for the mafia. Let's not underestimate their abilities. (And yes, this means that I have to reconsider just how likely it is that Mafia would not be given a day KP like LD has.) | ||

Here's how I see it. We all discuss who we want to lynch. Once the day starts, LD kills them. Then we have another 48 hrs till the next lynch. Because LD has claimed, we get a free day. This should mean that we will have enough information to go by if we are all active. So heck, why not start voting? LD-Lynch: Vote Annul Reasoning to come... | ||

Is it a bad reason? Yes! Do I care? Not yet! Why? because I was planning on unvoting it. I just wanted to see what people thought of me voting without reason. LB-Lynch: Unvote Annul With that out of the way, I feel like the conversation has kind of dropped off, and I really don't like that. I'm not the best at finding scum, so I'm having a hard time working with the material that we have so far. I would like to see more discussion of items. To start, should we discuss items? How much information is it prudent to let out? I mean, theoretically, the mafia know a lot about two members (themselves) where town knows a lot about only one person (themselves). So would it be a good idea to have a mass reveal? The town would gain more information than the Mafia...Would it be worth it? Is it a good idea for the town to trade items? Should the town try to end the game today with all the KP it has? Or take it more slowly, and try to make the game last longer? These are all questions that I'm thinking about. I actually have answers to a lot of them, But I'd like to see someone other than me talking about this. Also, please remember that there really isn't anything like a LYLO this game. If there's one mafia, and one town, town can still win. It ends when only one party is standing. | ||

I'm not pressing for a no lynch, but I think that everyone should vote that, so that the default is no lynch. Just as a security measure, if there's only two people who vote, I'd rather not let only them control the lynch. ##Vote: No lynch | ||

A few people that I'd like to see/hear from are RoL, who disappeared right after he said he would be "obsessive" over the game, and Chipmonkey, who has a few posts, but hasn't contributed a whole lot. Also, regardless of the items, we should not drop off analysis. I plan on posting an analysis later, but I'm going to be away for several hours so it may be a bit late in coming. | ||

I currently believe that Annul is town, based off a lot of information that i trust. I strongly disagree with his lynch currently. Don't let the mafia rush this. | ||

I'm not totally sure about either of you, but right now the argument it telling me you are both town. So don't kill each other without a really good reason. reason. | ||
