That's one of the things that I really really liked about Tracil's version. It seems like it'd be so much easier to find specific posts if the days and nights were broken up into different threads rather than having to sort through 200+ pages of posts. In a way the days and nights were broken up by having the day/night posts linked on the first page, but still...having that many pages seems like a pretty daunting task when looking for specific posts. Mynock has a pretty good point, however if someone's unwilling to lurk through a couple of threads, it seems doubtful that he'd be that much more willing to look through one huge ass thread. | ||

Whether its 'I abstain from voting' or not you must cast a vote" With the creation of this new rule, I would seriously consider creating a new thread where all votes are cast. In this new thread, people would simply post like this: No other posting would be allowed in the topic. It would serve as an easier way to count votes, and as a reduction on all the spammy posts that include just voting which people would make -- letting people read through the topic easier, and significantly cutting down on the pages in the topic. Vote counts could be posted in either or both topics. What do you guys think? (I would certainly love this... it'd be so much easier for me to follow) That actually seems like a really good idea. It would also benefit town because it'd make it a lot easier to check up on somebody's voting record. | ||

Edit: and reading all of the new posts...how the hell are you guys accusing people of being mafia now? With the people who have already declared their candidacy, yes there's a good chance all of them will be chosen as mafia, but there's just as good a chance that all will be townies...It's all luck at this point, no matter how shady someone might be acting. Obviously the mafia would like one of their own as mayor, but if you take the fact that mafia still kicked our ass last game and the fact that even Chuiu himself (I"m pretty sure it was Chuiu, could've been Dapperdan) said that in all his games he's never seen a mafia mayor. Then you can see that's it's stupid to start listing people who could be mafia, especially before the game starts, just because they're running for mayor. | ||

On March 15 2008 00:25 nemY wrote: You're breaking my balls man.Guys... lynch this mofo. He makes too much sense!!! Edit: Also just a random thought, wouldn't it technically be advantageous for mafia to not even try to run for mayor? I mean it seems like everyone here assumes that at least one person who runs for mayor HAS to be mafia. So if the mafia don't even bother to put a candidate up, then later in the game all those towny candidates will essentially end up being scapegoats for the lynchings. All I'm trying to say basically, is when we start lynching people...please come up with a better reasoning than "Well he ran for mayor and at least one of the candidates has to be mafia", because anyways...mayor seems to be useless to mafia. Besides the first lynching (which a towny mayor will probably get wrong anyways) the only powers the mayor has is his extra votes, which are pretty much useless if the town is even half decent (and if town sucks...then they REALLY don't need a mayor). As for the double lynching...well a mafia mayor would have to use his double lynchings in respect to the town's wishes anyways or risk being suspected as mafia. So in reality it seems that the wild goose chase that would ensue from not running for mafia would be more beneficial to them than the mayor or pardoner position would. I say the pardoner position is useless to mafia because then if he decides to pardon a fellow mafia without giving good reason then that guy will probably just be taken out by a vigilante at night. Afterwards the pardoner would be lynched by day giving the town two guaranteed mafia kills. | ||

What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't warrant such a large advantage that it's absolutely guaranteed that one of the candidates has to be mafia. | ||

Also as for the voting system. If we do the separate blogs for voting we can make it so that every post made in their is required to be a vote, but you can still post your reasons in your post. For example... On March 18 2008 8:32 SomeRandomExample wrote: If anyone cares my reason for voting this way is because blah blah blah. I vote SomeExampleRandom or On March 18 2008 8:32 SomeRandomExample wrote: for my reasoning just look at my post on this link http://teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=67925¤tpage=12#223 I vote SomeExampleRandom It might be a nuisance having to look through all those links but it's still (imo) easier to keep track of votes and things like vote changes than looking through a huge thread to check peoples voting records. Especially considering that the way the votes are broken up will be like 1-3 actual votes for every 15 posts by some group of people arguing. | ||

You can always message me to get into the advanced wait list (before other people on the wait list) to get into the game if other players are inactive. Hopefully I'll have day started in the next two hours. I can't wait ^__________________________^ | ||

Chuiu and DapperDan were betrayed by their own comrades, and now their lives hanged on the balance. "We don't like the way you're running things, and its time for change, either you submit and follow my leadership or you get to taste lead for dinner". Sidewinder stumbled forward trying to stop the inevitable. He jumped through the opening towards the door and was almost home free when he was cut off by Mr. Blonde, coming out of nowhere it seemed. He met him face to face halfway pushed King Brown Snake out of the way as he proceeded to the door again. Taipan Snake automatically knocked him to the ground and proceeded to kick him, being unarmed at the time. "Yes, but lets not be hasty, we should take care when proceeding" Alright, I'm too sleepy to look through all 130 profiles, but these are the lines in the post that caught my eye the most. The bolded parts are things that I'm kinda thinking could be clues, and bolded+italicized are things that I'm pretty certain relate to someone. So if anyone has any free time (randombum, that means you) these lines could lead somewhere. | ||

On March 18 2008 16:10 MoRe_mInErAls wrote: ehhh...not really. How would we know if the detective we're asking is really a detective? I mean noone's going to come clean about their roles this early in the game in fear of being killed by the mafia.Right, we can just ask a detective if the mayor is a mafia or not. This game just got easier Edit: However it would be in the mayor's best interest to follow the voice of the townies for the first few days, so a mafia mayor wouldn't be completely terrible. Edit2: Just read Ghar's post, makes sense now...actually he seems like a pretty cool guy, eh has a plan and doesn't afraid of anything. I might change my vote to him later. | ||

a)it's easier to keep track of everything b)people who are too lazy to look through all the pages have a resource for all the important things they need to know, so it's not as overwhelming. Anyways, now that I've gotten that out of the way I'm also gonna join in on voting for Ace, since while any mayor should incorporate this plan. The fact that Ace brought it up shows experience, intelligence, and township (I mean it's doubtful a mafia would bring up a plan like this). | ||
