I say we get it down to random vote by going on the outcome of some public event. Going by who gives the best lynch case is total crap when we don't even know what the Captain does.

Towns rarely lynch Scum on Day 1 - why would you expect us to be able to pick out who is Town so quickly? Unless their are roles that can act now that reveal information on other players then it's a crap shoot.

"Find a person we all agree is Town" = "Pick the most outspoken player".

I'd rather go random.

I'm gonna be out for a couple of hours so to keep this thread moving here is what I propose:

1.) We randomly assign someone as Captain. Better chances of a Townie getting picked this way.


2.) All serious candidates get put on a list. If you are notoriously bad as a player and are known for fucking up the Town DO NOT EVEN APPLY. Lazy scumhunters and spammers especially.

Screw the confirming people by PM stuff @ sandroba. We don't know your alignment and what you're doing comes off as role fishing. Whatever happened in past games is not relevant for this one.

That goes for all you. Let's hurry up and get this captain vote done today. Don't spam up the thread either because I'll be damned if you idiots crash us into Planet Mafia on Day 1.

Not to argue pointless things but matchew jailed me to protect me. And you should regret it and learn from your mistakes. I don't give a fuck about being vet, I care about being right, as should you. And you should care about winning too. I really don't care about how people perceive me, I only do whatever I feel like it's going to help the most to win the current game. We can be nice to each other after the game is over. =)


The thing is that in that game, you DID care about being a vet and you abused it.

GM, as annoying as sand is being right now, I think ET seems the scummiest right now, so I would kill him, but it is really difficult to have an accurate read yet.


Don't apply. Go find a seat in the back somewhere.

1. How do we verify that whoever does the randomizing actually makes it random?

2. Isn't choosing sandroba:
a) Just as good because he's been randomly assigned to either scum or town and
b) Better because we know that he is good as town and bad as scum and so far is about as active as we could expect a town sandroba to be?


1.) I've mentioned it before - we random based on a public event like a sports score or the outcome of an event.

2.) What faction he is assigned to isn't the same as randomly choosing a player in the game. I don't care that he is "bad at Scum" so we should give him the Captain seat. That's just absurdly ridiculous as it he's still Scum. Bad players would listen to him just because he's the Captain.

@tailsmaina-

I like the idea of posting PMs to be able to track who is talking to who. Currently the only person who has PM'ed me is Acrofales- and it was to inquire as to why I thought Sandroba was suspicious. I responded that I didn't like his role fishing.

As for candidates, lets try to get a list together and get some commitement out of people!


What about people using Instant Messengers or Skype? To me this is a bad idea. We really don't need to see every little bit of communication going on. Let's keep it simple here: If something needs to be proved or is critical then post the logs. Knowing who is talking to who isn't really important all of the time.

Node: Who is your vote for captain and why?


So far, I'm leaning Gmarshal. I like the points he has brought up regarding captain transparency, and I feel that his confident posting style indicatenes townie-ness so far. I'm also distrustful of circles, confirmations, and plans revolving around anything other than finding and killing scum in general, and thus do not wish to vote for sandroba. This could change depending on what cases are put forth for the lynch -- the day 1 lynch being the only captain power we know of so far, I want to pick whoever will use it the best.


This somewhat sums up my stance. I don't like trying to use circles and PM confirmation. Nothing strictly against sandroba but more so the people he could be talking to. I don't tell people shit unless they need to know because people have big mouths in PM games.

because he "seems townie"

after all that can you give us a little bit more information on why you decided to vote gmarsh other than "seems townie"


Good point. He said only the chosen PMers know why which to me is very odd reasoning. Must be a jubjub PM circle.

Ok guys, sorry I'm checking in a bit late, my day was a bit longer than expected. Initial thoughts:

Re: Capt. Keeping secrets. If the captain is Town, he should make a judgment call as to whether or not revealing something is beneficial to town- we should not make an arbitrary policy of openness and force him to follow it if he decides it benefits the town to keep something a secret. If the captain is scum, he will lie regardless. So I am against forcing the captain to reveal everything.

Re: Day 1 lynch target. TL Mafia players have shown themselves to be pretty bad overall at hitting scum on day 1. Part of the reason is that scum activly encourage stupid cases, such as “tone seems scummy in intro post”. For that reason, I put zero faith in the town voting on day 1 lynch and asking the captain to follow the towns vote.

Re: Sandroba is blue fishing. only a select few people for some reason. I have no reason to trust him. I hope no one else is giving him blue info. I also don't know why he was limited in scope. And as Im reading, /le sigh that he claims people have responded to him. How are you scrubs so fickle with your trust?

If our choice is between GM and Sandroba, someone made a good point that GM might be a better pick as Sandroba already has a lot of consolidated info since you brilliant folks gave him roles on day 1. It would be too powerful if he does happen to be scum with this info AND is captain.

guna read thread again tonight.


This guy should be Captain.

Since Mayors have a tendency to end up getting lynched aren't scum likely to leave the mayor alone at night as the captain mayor is a big fat target for a potential mislynch?

So by that logic a town mayor with information is a good thing because it forces scum to kill a townie that will we almost certainly kill a later date anyway.

Also michaelthe, i think that TL town's actually have an okay rate for killing mafia day 1. They still kill town most of the time but the percentages are much better than random lynching would give. I am sure i remember reading an argument about this but i can't find it. Also whether or not you have faith in town's ability to find scum you shouldn't discourage players from trying to provide content b telling them that their efforts will be for nothing since their efforts allow you to make reads.


I don't know about recent games but Mayors tended to live no matter how scummy they were in the past due to the Town being stupid. Scum always ran for Mayor because of the ridiculous invincibility to NKs and immunity to DT checks.

Right now we have no idea what the Captain gets so we really don't know if the Scum has any incentive to run. Then again the incentive to deny the Town any positive use of a role is usually a strong enough reason on it's own.

Giving anyone extra information BEFORE you know their alignment is just bad play. Yes it's absolutely awesome to give a Town Mayor information but that isn't the case right now. I'm not sure what you meant by the bolded but your logic is off:
If the Scum know you're going to just kill the Mayor at a later date, then you aren't forcing them to do anything.

Anyway we shouldn't be lynching people that are actually active at the moment. Get rid of the people not participating so far. I don't know how everyone is getting such good scum reads in such a short amount of time, but let's not kill off the people that are posting so quickly.

People, stop arguing with Zentor. It's fucking useless.

GMARSHAL - you know that was a real stupid decision to lynch froggy. Seriously, show me how you arrived at the conclusion he was Scummy. I was going to point it out earlier but I was just thinking that maybe you were putting too much faith into an early Day 1 read which you should know better about. Come on, you KNOW the drill: lynch the useless players first. NOT actives.

So lets get to some explanation:


froggynoddy This guy has the strongest case against him tight now, he has a couple tell tale signs that point him out as newbie scum

Two things in this post
1.) Apologizing for something that needs no apology. This is a sign of a guilty conscience much like what gave up Misder in Ver's XXX analysis. I did this all the time as the mole in PYP:Interesting, and Radfeild caught me out on it, so I'm always attentively looking for this kind of unnecessary apology.

2.) His issue with me trusting sandroba. This is typical of scum trying to subvert trust. "Why would you trust him OMG!" is the typical scum response to fast, uncontrollable circles of trust forming, and is basically how they express frustration while trying to discredit them in the thread.



The bolded is where I had a problem with your post. How can he be trying to subvert trust when it's typical smart Townie behavior to ask: "Hey, how is everyone trusting each other so quickly when the game hasn't been going for 24 hours yet?". You were reading something that wasn't there. But I had something in my notes written hours ago because of this:


Again, we see him actively discrediting town reads, which are actually vitally important in PM games as well as an excellent tool for weeding out scum.


From my notes:


GMarshal also has a plan that is too good for the public to know about. I'm guessing between him and sandroba they've got some insanely good abilities to just squad up so quickly in the game. He also was wrong in assuming that froggy was discrediting Town reads. In fact...that doesn't even make any sense. Very fishy.


Discredit a Town read? In fact lets just step back for a moment and think.

It's Day 1. Assume froggy is Scum.

He sees you supporting sandroba. He knows both of you are Town and that it's very early in the game so he would get nervous and try to "discredit your Town read on him" - FOR WHAT? It's the first Day. People are throwing all kinds of dumb reads out there. Why would he as Scum even care so much that you have a Town read on another player? It does nothing to his faction.

Come on, you are supposed to be smarter than this. I don't believe you are that terrible of a player to draw such an insane conclusion so quickly out of literal shit. All 3 of your candidates you wanted to lynch seemed like active posters to me.
That list was made hours ago and enough has happened in the thread since then. You couldn't at least update your reads? froggy was posting before the lynch and nothing he posted could have changed your read from that simple early game sample?

I'm certain of one thing right now: You are not reading the thread.
