Re: Mini-Mafia Game - Interesting Facts Edition

See the win conditions: Win conditions: Town wins when they eliminate all of the Mafia. The Jester does not need to be eliminated in order for town to win. Mafia wins when they control 50% of the vote. Jester wins if they die via a day kill. They lose if they are NK'ed or are alive when the Mafia w...

Re: Mini-Mafia Game - Interesting Facts Edition

If town did not need to kill the Jester in order to win, then it would be harder for the Jester to get themselves daykilled by being blatantly scummy. The Jester isn't supposed to be an entirely easy role and could be difficult to pull off. If town needs to kill them to win, and they need to be day...

Re: Mini-Mafia Game - Interesting Facts Edition

The Jester cannot claim they are the Jester or Mafia in order to get their win condition (which is to die during the day phase). In any event that they do, they automatically lose. This sounds unenforceable. Can they say "I am NOT the Jester *wink* *wink*" Can they claim cop/doc? What if they propo...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

What are the statistics of town wins vs scum wins over all 68 games?

If it is too lopsided maybe games are not being properly balanced, but that's hard to judge with so many different variants.

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

Final thoughts: I wanted to do a full reread of worcej but didn't make it. My best guess is still Chaqa-JBH-worcej, however. And celaph is flying way under the radar. I don't think there will be two shots tonight. If there are three shots then Chaqa and I will be dead, and someone else will be dead ...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

Wait, *rivera* claimed N1 rose save? I missed that. I'm shocked. I don't see anything from him suggesting a rose save. Did you shoot Rivera? My impression from this is that Chaqa did really believe that ghug was possibly hinting that he had shot rivera and wanted to check. It also shows Chaqa is pa...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

emc report: Feels towny, good solid reads on Jamie/damo/ghug/brain. I'm slightly concerned that he has said nothing or very little on Chaqa/worcej/JBH. I guess I can't completely rule out that he is scum with two of those. I would be shocked... I am already dispirited... if worcez and EMC are mafia...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

@Chaqa, you have been consistently scumreading worcej and rivera (always together) since EOD2, but I don't think you have ever explained why. Can you say something about those reads?

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

I am now seriously considering a scumChaqa townJBH scenario where all 3 scumguns have been used. Almost certainly means we just see a Xorxes deat tonight. In this scenario the team that makes most sense to me is Chaqa EMC ghug. It's still hard to explain why they would shoot JBH rather than Jamie. ...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

An interesting scenario would be more than 1 shot, 2 deaths and a n3 rose saved claimant. This would of course mean Chaqa is town (dead or alive) and the auto assumption would be JBH is scum but a lying scum rose claimant trying to frame JBH is also possible. So I throw open the question should som...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

So forgiving! Thanks. I want to play again... I wasn't sure if you guys could stomach it. But I will be smarter next time. Why are you talking as if the game was already over? My game is over. Either I get shot, or you get shot. If neither does, I am just following you. I have lost confidence in my...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

Damn...maybe I was wrong all along. So, if Chaqa is town and shot Jaime, then Mafia have one gun left and get two shots tonight. Two of us die. Chaca, Jaime/xorxes and myself would be best targets. If Chaqa is mafia and shot Jaime, then Mafia have no guns left and get only one shot tonight, and Jai...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

What is townie of damo to you? He is pegging my scum-dar yet you think my read isn't genuine. His push on JBH right out of the gate immediately made me think he is pushing for the sake of pushing. Only one you missed is celaph, who is BB, any take on them? He explained the JBH push perfectly well, ...

Re: M68: Guns N' Roses GAMETHREAD [hidden]

Ok, I screwed it up...try again. Suppose they have 3 guns. Night 1: Jamie not shot but claims he is shot, Snowy shot. No gun used, and one voted shot. Night 2: Eden shot, Snowy shot, Johnny shot. Two guns used and one voted shot... that is two guns used. My whole thing goes to hell in the statement...
