Is that list specific to this game, or is it for all games?
All games that I'm town.
Who else is on the list?
Celaph for sure. And probably Tom. Damo maybe? And Macca?

No, but we play vFTF Diplomacy and are on some discord servers for that.

I think this is the first time I will post on page 1 of a Mafia game.

Hi all. Can´t think anything funny to post so will be back in 20 pages...
I only had to go back to M1016 to find a case where you posted on page 1. At least you were town in that game.
Really? I didn´t check, but that was a Mini game. This game I went to play a tennis game and then work a bit and just missed 20 pages. Will catch up at bed, which mean I will probably just sleep.

Why do you feel the game has yet to progress to a more serious stage? Based on this and below, which was p17

Ugh, I knew this was going to be a high volume game and I will just say I am not going to do my typical snide posts here and there on comments just to make noise and drown out any actual constructive content.

Constructive content being said, I am super onboard with no-killing for the first 3 or so day phases. Force scum to make the first several moves and get PR actions off.

Pretty simple explanation as to why: no information on any flip. If we just randomly flip people (our typical D1), there is no post-flip information to help town at all and we run the easy risk of hitting PRs over scum. On D2, we cannot really VCA anyone once they are dead via day flips because you have no idea what alignment the person that died was. We cannot use any meta bussing or non-bussing analysis.

I figure I am in the hard minority on this, but after all my thoughts on how to approach this game (this is the first no-information flip game I have played in), forcing scum to act first makes the most sense.

##vote nokill

Also, additional comment: I plan to review individual players and make groupings of people as such:
  1. People who create constructive content - this is easy: track the people who actually try to figure the game out.
  2. People who are responding or critiquing without their own ideas - these are the ‘I agree with this thought’ posters, mostly piggy-backing off others.
  3. The non-value adders - AKA: noise-makers, otherwise known as the brainbomb of this game (P.S. - Luv you BB)
  4. Lurkers - you know what these are. No further explanation needed.
And with all that being said, remember I suck and am terrible at this game. And all the opinions are entirely my own awful ones when I make said list.

Anddddd…. Going to go for the night after dropping this. My analysis time will be used tomorrow when I don’t want to work while I am at work.
Announcing things you're looking for seems fairly counterproductive to reading people. What is the point of sharing this?

That sounds a little tortured
PR doesn't have to CC D1, they can just do it end of the next night
While true, it still ultimately creates a 1-for-1 trade that I'm not as keen on creating in this game. The risk of exposing a PR is also present.

Since the voting data ultimately relies on PR info to be meaningful, I think it might be reasonable to minimize risk of losing PRs before they give their info.

Of course, the threat of a kill always needs to be present if this game isn't going to be an endless sea of memes
Shrug
I think waiting for PRs to deliver salvation is a weakness that needs to be burned out

Also that's what the doc is for

Honestly I see some people are concerned about the whole no flip business but as far as I can see this is a pretty easy setup, probably because of the above reason

Vote out d1, cc eon1, and carry on as usual. Should cover all stated concerns I've so far seen
I think a good reason for a no-kill D1 is to make sure we do not accidentally force a PR to reveal. Usually the loss of information is enough to counter that, but with the no reveal I do not think that is the case here.

Right, so shouldn't Miller claim as early as possible so there's no chance mafia claims it later and gets away with something?
Nah, I think it's worth that risk, cause we can get a late clear or catch scum lying about it. Claim it if you're dying so we know, but that's it.
I can see an argument either way. If the miller claims early and is not CCed, the mafia using the NK on the miller is not a bad result. It also would keep the cops from wasting scans on the miller.
I agree with Bozo here. Miller should claim. If Mafia want to waste a NK on him instead of aiming at the Cop, better for town. If he got a CC we will kill them both and catch one scum.

They're based off minor and not particularly important interactions six hours into day 1. I'm "keeping my options open" in the same sense that you "keep your options open" by not proposing to someone on the first date :lol:
