That is what you think??? + Show Spoiler +There are 11 players, for 11 players that means to be normal there is 2 and half scum(bad men).

Blazing hand is thus the last half man of the scum team. The game may have been "normal" but it is no longer entirely normal.

BTW as is traditional for my games that is probably the best case I will make all game. Like Hapa I give advance notice my play style will be exactly like previous games and hence entirely different.

Whereas the Collins, Oxford, Cambridge dictionaries don't think that word in their language means that.

Here is link to a post by you with a screen shot of your dinner after you have eaten it. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=18666959
if you analyse those two images forensically, pixel by pixel.
Notice that none of it is missing compared with where you say you are up to at the moment.
You are not eating your dinner, as that screen shot shows proves 100% you have already eaten as much of your dinner as you are going to and are thus actively lurking.
The question however is:- Is that what you do as town or what you do as scum, or is it in the [orange]ignore[/orange] bucket. {CBA finding the link to the venn diagram, post {edit:nah here it is} }
I think that if we examine your meta, then we will find you have 'not eaten' that very same dinner before... and you flipped town.

Ok as the game thread has been total waste of time so far and not got me any closer to determining people alignments. here is my policy/look busy post. i was going to post it earlier but I just had dinner. + Show Spoiler [screenshot] +here is screen shot of something that is not my dinner for proof that it is not mydinner.

Cool: Assuming we are still on the same time cycle "Currently the deadline is 02:00 GMT (+00:00), but that is subject to change." AND Assuming I get the countdown snyatx right.
Check list of things I need to start the game. A List of people I can try to lynch. A general plan of how to do that. A detailed practical implementation for realising execution of the plan.
oops. BTW Attention All/some of the OP filters are(were) broken recently (by a backend server change?)

people who dont exist 187170
Ok that is enough lynch targets for now...
The general plan: After We lynch DP for lurking and we lynch all list posters then we lynch everyone that scum slips. Sounds easy.
The practical execution of plan: Kill the pig, cut her throat spill his blood. herp derp.
yep let get this game operational. + Show Spoiler [In other news] +Nice weather: Random bullshit phase appears to have come early this game

Hmmmm :\.... This is different.
+ Show Spoiler [LOLCAT] + Axle: So Skip here we are again. Speaking of that ground hog day thing, didnt I die in the last town we were in? Skip: Woof. Woooooof woof. Axle: Oh its timey whimey thing and I should not worry about that.. ok.
Axle: So Skip here we are again. How does this one smell?
Skip: Woof. …...................... Wof wof. Axle: Hmm not too big, and not too many arcane power smells, sounds good. But Uh oh, we cant stay here. Skip: Woof?
Axle: Its normal town and were not normal we're different.
Skip: Woof!
Axle: What do you mean, Normal is different. Normal is same not different. And what do you mean you can prove it mathematically?
Skip: Woofity woof woof <plonk>
Axle: Ok so I looked up normal in the math text, you just happened to have and I looked up normal. Now what? Skip: Woooooooooooooooof Axle: Ok so on a Euclidean surface you can move around any where you like and its just the same as anywhere else. So whats different? Obviously off the surface is different to on the surface, and the further off you get the more different to the surface you are. Skip: [big]Woof![big] Axle: yeah Ok... I suppose a normal vector does get off the surface as fast as it is possible to do, so it (a normal) is in a sense as different to the surface as it is possible to be.
Axle: <thinks>
Axle: Ok so Normal may be Different, but what if we are a different kind of different one that is not normal. Oh, you have another text that covers that and I should read it for myself... Ok.
Axle: and you marked a page for me: “The curse of dimensionality.”
Axle: {reads to self} Ok so lets see if I got this right. In high dimensional space Rn, if all the relatively small population(us?the town is small n) are normally distributed on each quality (anger, agression, good play, …) then most people are an outlier in their own projection.
Axle:
Axle:
Axle: Wat?
Axle: No on second thoughts skip, I don't care any more and far as I am concerned it is all just the same difference, lets just go in and see who is around.
Oh apparently that(different) is normal
Ok. and Vanilla Town [brown]chocolate brownie[/brown]

@host OP says: The mayor will be given the power of an extra vote, as well as 2 other powers and one game condition they must follow, all to be explained after the election.
All will be explained... but to who? The mayor, or the thread, or is it another surprise.

Not until I know your alignment and probably/possibly/maybe what the powers restrictions are or even know who will know what about them when. In the absence of all knowledge, I already chose the optimal course.
Even then there may be other candidates I'd prefer based on capability generating a better risk benefit tradeoff. If I had enough information I might even prefer a candidate other than me.
We are getting late enough in the day now that experience tells me, that other tzs likely wont be checking in. hence we lose a fraction of the day
do you have suggestion of what we can do profitably? AFAIK 1v1 mafia doesn't work that well.

Pretty sure you can tell from my track record that I really only roll non-VT when I force myself into a themed game Also, we won't know what these powers/restrictions are until the election is over so there's no real point trying to work it out. In which case everyone ends up voting themselves as the 'optimal' route? We have quite a few people in for discussion now, but what is there to discuss at the moment..

Now when I say: > Not until I know your alignment and probably/possibly/maybe what the powers restrictions are or even know who will > know what about them when. In the absence of all knowledge, I already chose the optimal course.
Which mentions both determining alignments and setup speculation Sylencia: < "Also, we won't know what these powers/restrictions are until the election is over so there's no real point trying to < work it out. In which case everyone ends up voting themselves as the 'optimal' route?"
Which seems to have overlooked finding out alignments, the important bit. If you already knew them that would explain that assumption.
That's what I do. Now I see what you do.
Also do remember, while we do this, to notice what other people are not doing.

On June 09 2013 15:00 Hapahauli wrote: Also, jampi is town. EZ.
I keep reading up to this post and going. uh. I dont know why.
I accept you have better knowledge of Jampi than me. (equivalently?)I expect at some time to get a good read on Syl if Syl posts, for some reason I think I can read Syl. I accept you pushed jampi and he rang pretty true in fairly small time frames. What I don't have but I guess you do (or did when you coached him?) is have good estimate of whether scum jampi could do that? (see the BH venn diag)
Also what it might be that is making me uneasy is that is quite a few town reads you're clocking up. and labelling them EZ.
I find towns tend to lose when they get complacent, hence you promoting complacency can have scum motivation. Clocking up that many town reads seems harder to marry into the pattern. This would worry me more except i have heard that sooner or later if you are scum then you start posting baby seal pictures then we lynch you.
Hapa: Can you aid me in not being distracted by this post of yours?
@Sylencia Please post more.

Also a last note about early-game reads... every read someone makes early D1 is completely worthless. Early D1 is only about getting people to talk, and that's it. It is always important re-consider every single one your reads and start from scratch when the D1 lynch gets close.
oh yeah, early game reads. Those early ones are usually worthless based on fresh air, fairy tales fiction and BS.
Consider when i proved 100% Bh was town... that was pregame. His pregame alignment was town. I completely recant that read now for his in game alignment.
My early read on oats seems shaky too, but so far he has done nothing to shake it. So yes I am probably aware of the usual ebb and flow of the day, even if sometimes I get it totally wrong.

Vayne, I have tried twice to write this post the first one asked the wrong question. it may still ask not what i mean. meh. It is a difficult little thought please read carefully and discuss it with me. After one or two iterations we may reach common ground.
Gross generalisations about your meta + Show Spoiler + I have, when you played them, been a spectator of some of your previous games. (I think mainly les) At the time I dreaded playing with you and having to try and read you due to choices you make that for me potentially put all your play in the orange bucket. This happens when you assert that you get _all_ your reads from flip analysis of voting and nks. You seemingly in the other games I read use that claim about yourself to justify some level 'no comment' on things in thread.
TLDR; its all orange to me.
Those are broad sweeping generalisations, and they are I think about your town and scum play. (orange bit) if after the discussion they are wrong sorry?

Your discussion promotion method (vote) is something that is easy for scum to emulate. Answering questions when being prodded is harder, please try to to do the harder things too.
Here is a new question. Independent of how the votes pan out, because sometimes at the end of the day there is one no brainer candidate. If we discussed the mayoral campaign, and found out who was shy about commenting during the day before the result was clear, would that help find scum or would it as you seem to suggest yield 'zero information'.
Do note I agree wholeheartedly with the general sentiment, (and I am pretty sure my previous games will support the notion that,) I oppose days with one wagon, but primarily because there is no/limited discussion.
lastly even if you need the votes (or you get zero information), I think a number of other people need significant interactive discussion and the vote, so please comment more fully on the question of the mayoral election.

@oats as i have my vote on you and the reasons posted are (ahem) a little shaky.
and while it is nice that you think everyone is cool or could be. try to post something wincon related please.
if nothing else there bunch of mayoral stuff floating around that should be easy pickings.
or feel free to choose and or add your own topics befitting your erudite stature.
