Already we've advocated lynching somebody who's not in the game, horribly miscounted the number of blue roles, and then Vivi57 waltzes in with that amazing analysis. Does anyone want to be mayor of this town? | ||

I think I am good at analysing peoples allignment from their posts, and is something that I've gotten better at the more games I've played. DT's being able to rolecheck elected also means that I could be trusted early on and co-ordinate with blues to get us a decisive win early on. Also i'd quite like to play an elected position simply because I have not had the chance before and it would make the game more exciting (for me). Elect XeliN !

Iaaan 9. tree.hugger Explanations appreciated. I'm writing a paper on Kantian ethics, and reading the thread during breaks. I'll have some more time tomorrow. My reasons for voting for BC are somewhat unsteady at this point, I'll probably change it at some point when more candidates come out. He hasn't roleclaimed to me though, I just am annoyed at L for engineering my death in the last game, and I think you've contributed quite a bit so far, I haven't ruled you out either. But there are enough half baked ideas in this thread to make me wonder who is dictating strategy for who... And this will be my fifth post in the thread at any rate. It's all good. | ||

On March 12 2010 05:23 Bill Murray wrote: How many more times can we quote L's 70 line post on one page? Should we try for a third? I'm a little worried about this three person election thing. I mean, it normally comes down to three people in the end anyway, but it seems like we've just been presented with three candidates who announced really early, and intimidated everyone else into not running. Two candidates have roleclaimed DT, which seems more than a little implausible, especially because both players are veteran players. Incognito is the only person untainted so far, but that really means nothing. XeliN isn't a serious candidate, and neither is Bill Murray either, but perhaps that means we might be better off trusting them? I think rolechecks on our elected officials are paramount early in this game, just to check the assertions these players have made so far. Curiously, if L is said to actually be the detective, there might be more reason to suspect him. It's ironic I think, that BC and L would look more like the godfather if they seem to be who they claimed to be. | ||

As for the election we've got going here, this is really really close, which bothers me, because it seems all the easier for the mafia to calibrate the results as they see fit. If you're town, and are contemplating changing your vote, it might be clever to do so as late as possible, so that at the very least, the election results won't be particularly easy to adjust. It would be really really excellent if all the election candidates were town-aligned, but we should by no means assume that's the case. The priority is still rolechecking the election winners, because a mafia pardoner is a threat, and a mafia mayor is an even bigger threat. This game will be won or lost on DT play. | ||

But that said, I feel like these kills don't really tell us anything, which may be why these players were picked to begin with. I mean, Vivi and Fulgrim were hardly the town's most adept mafia killers, and they clearly had no power of their own. I think Vivi's kill makes BC look fairly innocent here, in particular because they seemed to be connected through BC's roleclaim. If Vivi had been blue, then I would've suggested that Vivi had roleclaimed back or something, but because Vivi flipped green, it doesn't seem likely to me that BC would be involved. See if you can follow that logic, I'm not entirely sure it makes sense, had some stuff to drink a couple of hours ago, maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and find what I wrote makes no sense. Oh, and then there's this. On March 14 2010 14:44 L wrote: Citi.zen, if you feel so strongly about killing me, how's about we kill bill murray today and if I'm wrong, you kill me tomorrow. Sounds like everyone wins. Which is exactly what you did last game, and I don't believe for a moment. We all know you won't agree to die, and hold up the other end of this gambit if you're wrong, so why should we give it any weight this time? L, what makes you think Bill Murray is mafia? | ||

I have. I'm not convinced. I'm asking if you have another argument. | ||

Also, I wasn't 'inactive', I followed the thread fairly closely, but seeing as how there would really never be enough people willing to lynch an 'inactive' over an active player in a game with no clues, I just tried to lie low. I think that may be this style's biggest fault, there's nothing that encourages participation. That said, the action list shows pretty clearly that we did a good job of staying off people's radar, but also that the net was closing pretty fast. We didn't connect on our second bus driver hit, and with so many blues alive, there simply was no time left to pull it back together, so we did agree to call it. gg. | ||
